Welcome to one of the most gay friendly destinations on earth! Once a quiet fishing village, Puerto Vallarta was "discovered" by director John Huston, who filmed "Night of the Iguana" with Richard Burton and Elizabeth Taylor at his side. (Vallarta is one of her favorite cities!) Since then, "Vallarta" has developed into a lively resort with great appeal to the gay and lesbian traveler.
 
Part of Vallarta's allure is its blend of the old and new. I always describe Vallarta as Key West was in the 80's but with cobblestone streets and sombreros. White stucco houses with red-tiled roofs and flower-filled balconies line cobblestone streets, and Mariachi music streams from downtown bars. You might even pass a burro clip-clopping along. But that's just part of the story here. You'll also find something for every taste and budget along our 25 miles of beaches; water sports, golf, horseback riding through the jungle and much more. The Los Muertos Beach, where Blue Chairs Beach Resort is located, offers a secluded beach area for you, your partner and friends, while Downtown is in the center of Old Vallarta's colonial charm and only steps away from your beachfront resort.

To the north, of the Hotel Zone and downtown, you will find more beautiful beaches, Marina Vallarta which boasts championship golf, and a world-class marina. Just minutes from the hotel to the south you will find the charming Mismaloya beach area offering a wide array of water sport activities, shopping for local crafts, nice restaurants and all set in a tropical paradise.

Vallarta offers the gay and lesbian traveler many attractions "we" hold dear. Attractions such as a large selection of gay and lesbian nightclubs, the world famous "Blue Chairs Beach", which by the way is our front yard, world class shopping, local craft markets and a huge choice of restaurants to suit every taste.

When you think of gay friendly destinations Key West, San Francisco and Amsterdam come to mind immediately. Vallarta is as welcoming of the gay and lesbian traveler as any of these cities and maybe even more. We welcome your visit to Vallarta and to the Blue Chairs Beach Resort and look forward to providing you with a fun filled, value packed and unforgettable vacation experience.
