Welcome to summer in Puerto Vallarta — a time when the pace softens, the crowds thin out, and the city reveals a different side of itself.
It’s a season to slow down a bit, take a closer look, and appreciate the spaces and people that continue to shape this community year-round. And in many ways, that’s exactly what this issue is about.
Our cover stories reflect three very different, but equally important, parts of Vallarta right now.
STUDS Bear & Leather Bar marks four years and continues to grow far beyond what anyone might have expected — expanding its reach, its brand and its role within the community.
Villa Sevilla offers something entirely different — a private, design-forward experience that feels more like stepping into a curated world than simply checking into a property.
And Opal Bar PV brings a fresh addition to the nightlife scene, introducing a more refined, lounge-style environment focused on cocktails, conversation and atmosphere.
Together, these stories capture where Vallarta is today — evolving, diversifying and continuing to find new ways to connect.
Beyond the cover, this issue is anchored by our We Are Puerto Vallarta Awards coverage, recognizing the individuals, businesses and community leaders who are making a real impact. From longtime contributors to rising names, these stories highlight the people driving Vallarta forward every day.
You’ll also find a wide range of features throughout the issue — from our Leading Lesbians profiles and a look at Cirque du Soleil’s LUDÕ, to new business openings, and the continued evolution of some of the city’s most recognized spaces.
Puerto Vallarta is always full of stories worth paying attention to.
Thank you, as always, for being part of Out & About PV.
