The Tryst Puerto Vallarta begins welcoming discerning gay guests this spring, just in time for the Mexican resort city’s Pride celebrations.
The 55-room resort includes a penthouse suite featuring two terraces, three large suites with expansive living areas and terraces and several junior suites with unique features.
A highly anticipated rooftop pool with a bar area and restaurant offering fine Mexican cuisine are just some of the highlights. “You can stay here and never leave the resort,” said Tristan Schukraft, the driving force behind Tryst Hotels, and self-described CEO of “everything gay.” While he started out in his career working in the early days of electronic ticketing, Schukraft may be more known for his work with MISTR, a popular online source for PrEP.
He also recently entered into an agreement to purchase the Abbey in West Hollywood, Calif. With Tryst he promises “it’s a fun, exciting atmosphere.” “The idea is not just the guests are coming to the resort, but locals,” said Schukraft. “So, when you stay here it’s the way to mingle with the local gay community.” To welcome and include both guests and locals, the resort will host drag brunches in the hotel restaurant.
