Nightlife in PV- or - Am I in LA??

Monday was my first night in Puerto Vallarta and I decided to go out for some fun
Back home I had printed a map of the Zona Romantica listing a dozen or more gay bars and clubs. Decided on going to La Noche, Pacos Ranch, and CC.

I found La Noche appealing: downstairs there was a bar with dancers, some tables and sofas to relax on. Lights were not too bright which I prefer. Stairs at the back lead up to higher levels with another bar, more tables and chairs, and eventually a roof top terrace.
After hanging around for an hour or so, I decided to check out Pacos Ranch to see if there were more people overthere as La Noche was not very crowded.

Pacos Ranch reminded me somewhat of a saloon. It had a bar on the right, dance floor to the left, and a balustrade circling everything. I had good hopes to meet some fun Mexicans to spend the night with.
Unfortunately, I was mistaken.
The place slowly filled up with guys originating from "exotic places" like San Francisco, LA, and San Diego. Doing their coke thing, dancing, and looking like pretty muscle botttoms. No thanks.
Hanging out at the bar and chatting with the bar man, I asked if he knew of a "leather bar" in PV or at least something similar. "HAHAHA". "You're in Puerto Vallarta" he said. "No such thing here!" Right.... Sigh. Went outside and had a quick peek at CC. Same thing as Pacos, only with less locals. Am I in LA or what?? Went back to my hotel and slept.

Thursday, I decided to give it one more try and went to Reinas and Amigos at the advice of a new found online chat friend. Much better!
Reinas reminded me of the bars in Amsterdam. Full with trinkets, fun music, and a lively crowd. Talked to the dutch owner of the bar, who was pleasantly surprised at meeting a fellow dutchman. Had a few drinks and after a couple hours went off to Amigos.

Amigos was another bar I immediately liked. A good mix of local Mexicans and visitors, some wearing cowboy hats or sombreros. Very sexy. The bar backs were cute and very good at flirting...lol. Suffice to say I had a good time and not because of all the booze I was served I just wish I had found this place earlier in the week.
