Lauren Trauscht, Founder of Punta Mita PM, discovered her paradise in 2009 when she traded Phoenix, Arizona for the sun-kissed beaches and laid-back lifestyle of Punta Mita. With an innate eye for detail and a passion for luxury, Lauren's background in high-end retail and hospitality laid the foundation for her entrepreneurial ventures.
After honing her skills as an activities coordinator at the Scottsdale Princess Resort, Lauren brought her expertise to Punta Mita, where she opened a surf shop on Anclote Beach. As she built strong relationships with homeowners, her reputation for honesty and reliability grew, and her real estate and property management business evolved organically.
Today, Lauren's dedication to exceeding owner and guest expectations sets her apart in the industry.
Founder & Managing Director
Lauren Trauscht
Born in San Francisco, Nayarit, to a Mexican mother and an American father, I was raised between Mexico and California in a bilingual, bicultural home. I’m fully fluent in both Spanish and English.
Hospitality is in my blood. In 1980, my grandmother was one of the first expatriates to settle in Sayulita and opened one of the town’s very first hotels. For over 45 years, our family has been part of Sayulita’s hospitality story. I grew up immersed in that world, helping with the hotel from a young age and learning the values of hard work, warmth, and exceptional service.
Now with more than 25 years of experience in hospitality and property management, I continue to follow in her footsteps—building lasting relationships through clear communication, professionalism, and a deep commitment to personalized service. Whether I’m supporting homeowners or curating unforgettable guest experiences, I carry my family’s legacy with pride in every detail.
