The Tryst is making history as the world’s first luxury gay hotel brand, not just some gay-friendly spot that throws a rainbow flag up during Pride. We’re talking about a whole luxury hospitality empire that’s being built from the ground up by and for the community. The founder, Tristan Schukraft, decided to create an experience where you “Experience your best self, even on your worst behavior”.
The property itself is stunning – we’re talking 53 rooms of pure boutique luxury designed by the same architects who did Four Seasons Tamarindo. The rooftop pool boasts panoramic Puerto Vallarta views. Location-wise it’s hard to beat – one minute walk to Los Muertos Beach, right in the heart of Zona Romántica where all the gay magic happens. The opening party for The Tryst featured all the gay jetset you see on Instagram partying with Jennifer Coolidge.
The Tryst now joins The Almar as a luxury gay hotel in Puerto Vallarta, attracting mostly North American travelers. A great place to see and be seen.

Mexico is a standout gay-friendly destination, offering full legal recognition of same-sex marriages across the country. Since the legalization of same-sex marriage in 2015, same-sex couples can have a fully legal wedding ceremony in many states, ensuring the same rights and protections as heterosexual couples. For those who wish to combine their wedding with a honeymoon, Mexico offers a unique opportunity to celebrate both in a country that provides legal recognition of same-sex unions.
In addition to marriage equality, Mexico offers various legal protections for LGBTQ+ individuals. Anti-discrimination laws are in place to safeguard sexual orientation and gender identity in employment, healthcare, and public services, further contributing to the country’s reputation as an inclusive destination for LGBTQ+ travelers.
For couples seeking a symbolic ceremony, Mexico also accommodates this option, allowing legal proceedings to be handled in their home country. With vibrant LGBTQ+ communities in cities like Mexico City, Playa del Carmen, and Puerto Vallarta, same-sex couples can enjoy not only a legal wedding but also a memorable, safe, and inclusive experience. Whether for a wedding or honeymoon, Mexico provides an affirming and welcoming environment, making it a top choice for LGBTQ+ couples seeking both rights and celebration.

Room Types
The Tryst offers ten distinct room categories organized across four clear tiers, each designed with the property’s signature minimal modern Mexican aesthetic. Entry Level Collection includes the Tryst Queen and City King categories, ranging from 200-250 square feet with personal balconies and ultra-soft king or queen beds.

Mid-Tier Selection encompasses the Courtyard King, Corner King, and Tryst King options, spanning 225-315 square feet with enhanced features like glass sliders to private terraces, upgraded bathrooms with hand showers, and courtyard restaurant views. The Tryst King represents the collection’s sweet spot, offering what the hotel describes as “everything you want, plus that little extra you have to have.”
Luxury Tier includes the Superior Rooms and Suite categories, ranging from 385-590 square feet with premium amenities like multiple balconies, outdoor showers, separate living areas, and accommodations for up to four guests.
