Overall Ratings & Reviews The Tryst Puerto Vallarta LGBT Hotel

Loved the roof top pool and views! Will return again

A lovely and unique hotel that is still in the process of becoming great. Billed as the first luxury LGBTQ hotel, The Tryst has all the makings of amazing. However, at the time of our stay (July ‘25) they were still a work in progress. Some construction is ongoing, one of the two guest elevators has not yet been installed, and there was some mix-up with staff on restaurant reservations for the drag brunch. Highly recommended that if you are staying for their very popular drag brunch that you triple confirm the reservation (both our room and two others had their reservations “lost”). That said, we were eventually accommodated and staff is overall quite lovely and very attentive to guest needs. For the price - you’ll expect perfection. They aren’t quite there yet — but a top tier property nonetheless.

New hotel with amazing design and a keen eye for details Staff though, is the best part Great location as well

Beautiful new hotel. All staff was very welcoming and accommodating.

The property was great but still under developed ! It only opened properly a week before we arrived and online it was advertised otherwise. There is no spa or gym which should be essential for a hotel like that! The guest services weren’t the most useful and didn’t even tell us about the drag brunch happening on Sunday. This should be asked first to the guest who stay in that hotel. Luckily , they did squeeze us in even after sold out booking. The hotel was quite empty and only saw occasional few people so not a place if you want to socialize. Other resorts in that area would be better. Another thing which we notice was lack of transparency on construction. There was construction happening and we could hear it all the time in our room. On the positives, the food and drinks were great! Perhaps more vegetarian options and more events throughout the week would make the hotel even more interesting!

Beautiful new gay hotel. Friendly staff, fun happy hour at the rooftop infinity pool, beautiful rooms if you upgrade. My one and only gripe was the lobby cafe, although it looks nice, wasn't the most comfortable place to have coffee or a bite.

The staff was awesome. Very friendly and accommodating. Beautiful room and hotel.

Loved the Hotel overall. The staff were amazing. Jose the pool service waiter was just outstanding, so friendly and attentive. The rooms were great and the AC perfect. My only negatives were no umbrellas on the lower pool area , only one elevator, and the rooftop pool was always way too hot.

This was our first time staying at The Tryst celebrating a birthday. Lovely new hotel with prices slightly higher than the competition (Alamar, Casa Cupola, etc) but in my view worth the extra for the new feel and atmosphere. We stayed in the sea view suite on 7th floor. It was clean, modern and great aircon which worked perfectly. Some areas for improvement are as follows 1. We used the roof pool each day for happy hour. However on Saturday we were up there for a couple if hours and didn’t see a waiter or bar staff. Was not an issue on the Thursday or Friday with great service but for some reason non existent on Saturday 2. The shower kept stopping half a way through a shower. Didn’t bother to report as still managed but shouldn’t happen at the price we paid in their top suite 3. There is only one elevator! There is obviously a housing for a second elevator so not sure why it’s not yet functional? Whilst this is not a huge hotel one elevator isn’t sufficient Overall The hotel is great and would definitely stop again.

Great newest hotel , stayed 3 times and booked for the future ! While not at the beach , but great food qnd rooftop / courtyard parties and entertainment ! The nicest and friendliest staff in Vallarta , without the hypocrisy of other tourist trap efforts ! 5 stars all the way

We disliked this property so much we left two days early because we could not sleep while there. They had music blaring all hours of the day and until the early morning hours. The rooms had paper thin walls. We even bought ear plugs and asked to moved rooms, to which the guy at the front desk was rude about it and basically ignored us saying he would ask a manager and we never heard from him. Of course no money back for leaving early. This establishment heavily caters to gay males and no other lgbtq+ members.

This property is in a great area, close to the beach, entertainment and great restaurants. The rooftop pool and bar are on separate levels which helps create wonderful areas for socialization. The design is restrained and sophisticated. I appreciated the fact that there are no single use plastic and each guest is given a reusable water bottle with filtered water stations in each floor. Some things to note: - only one elevator - there was still construction on L1 and L2 which was loud as it echoed through the building and started early considering it’s a vacation property and we were staying over the weekend - half of the rooms face the courtyard where the restaurant and drag shows occur; this is a lively hotel so may not be conducive if you’re looking fo sleep early or sleep in over the weekend (can’t speak to events during the week)

Amazing 1st class hotel!! Everything was top notch! The construction was the only negative thing?? Noisy! But worth the stay!! Can’t wait to see what the finished hotel is on my next trip!😎

Beautiful property in the heart of the romantic zone. Every staff member I had interactions with was incredible!!

The staff, once again, was excellent and the food terrific!

Great stay at The Tryst! There was still some construction noise but nothing unbearable. They actually moved and upgraded me to reduce the noise without me even having to ask. The pool area is awesome. The staff was always friendly and helpful. I’ll definitely be back.

Excellent hotel but still going through some construction so it gets noisy early in the morning if you are trying to be lazy and sleep in.

The Hotel and staff were beautiful and very helpful. The only downside to everything was the construction happening right next door, which was very loud and often woke you up way too early in the morning.

Amazing hotel and room. Great staff. Will be back again.

I like the concept of the property the rooms are a bit small but overall it was a good experience
