Almar Resort is a luxury LGBT resort in Puerto Vallarta's Zona Romántica, in the Mexican state of Jalisco.

Description

[edit]

Almar Resort is a 100-room beachfront[1] property in Zona Romántica, Puerto Vallarta. It is an adults-only gay hotel and the city's only LGBT+ resort.[2][3] Out magazine has said Almar "boasts dazzling ocean views and a nearly all-queer clientele".[1] The property features a gay sky bar called Top and a pool and lounge area called Eden. Mantamar Beach Club Bar & Sushi is also associated with Almar Resort.[1][4]

History

[edit]

Almar Resort is owned by Vidal Meza[5] and his brother, who also own Mantamar. According to Ed Walsh of SFGate, "Meza estimates that about 85% to 90% of Almar's guests, who tend to be a younger, hipper crowd, are from the U.S."[6]

Ross Mathews got married at the resort in 2022. He and his husband met at Almar two years prior.[7]

Reception

[edit]

Almar Resort was recognized by Mexico's LGBTQ+ Travel Awards in 2023.[8][9]
