Puerto Vallarta, Jalisco, Mexico - This year several hotels in Zona Romantica have come together to show their pride and support for the LGBT community by offering a Pride Special: Book 5 nights and get one free. The hope is that international and national visitors will attend Vallarta Pride 2014, which is scheduled to take place May 22nd to 26th.

For 2014, Vallarta Pride has expanded from a 3-day weekend event into a 5-day-long cultural event that celebrates a vibrant community that through the years has created its own culture, heritage and traditions in Puerto Vallarta.

Puerto Vallarta, in fact, is now known as the number one gay friendly travel destination in Mexico. Just as the LGBT community has developed, so has the city's Zona Romantica. Once an undeveloped area of Vallarta, it has been transformed into a trendy and upscale hot spot, where tens of thousands of international visitors from all walks of life stay and play every year.

Many of the hotels offering Pride Specials have been transforming themselves into trendy boutique settings, to make your stay during Vallarta Pride 2014 more enjoyable.
