In the Riviera Maya, the night is also important and if what you look for is night fun, there is no better place than this happy corner of Mexico.
Most of the Riviera Maya hotels organize varied shows and theme dinners every night, with contests and dances in which the public is invited to participate. Although some hotels boast their own discos, the usual place for gatherings is the lobby bar in almost all resorts, since they close after midnight.
Now if you would like to explore the party atmosphere that the nights of the Riviera Maya have to offer, Playa del Carmen is where you have to go. From informal bars outdoors to modern discos, you will find in this colorful town everything you can wish for if you are like those who prefer to live at night.
To enjoy a pleasant time, dancing by the sea shore, either to the rhythm of live music or expert DJs, the most recommendable places are the Blue Parrot, Tutix Captain and, by all means, Mr. Frogs, where you can dance under the starred sky while having jelly shots.
If you search for a more relaxing option, why not go for a frozen beer and listen to live blues music in Bourbon Street? An excellent place to relax under a thatched-roof while you listen to the flutist play is the Ajua, where you can also sample specialties of the Mayan cuisine. For a more intimate atmosphere, submerge yourself in a Jacuzzi while drinking a margarita in the upper bar of Deseo.
If you want to do some people watching while listening to some music, you have to try the Siesta Fiesta. Visit the Beer Bucket if you want to have a pair of drinks in an informal atmosphere and to establish a casual lively talk.
A place that goes beyond the ordinary is Alux, a cavern that qualifies as a bar, where it is also possible to dance. For exotic places you have to go to Om: an extensive bar decorated with gauze curtains and deck chairs that offers in addition narghiles on the tables; all this with a mystical and eclectic musical background that intends to relax the audience while they have some frozen drink.
La Casa del Habano offers you the opportunity to smoke a good cigar while you drink exquisite cognac in its Cognac Lounge Bar VIP. Although this establishment is fundamentally a store, it has a reserved room for those clients who prefer to smoke their purchase right away.
If your pursuit is a disco atmosphere, the option is the Bali Club, with a capacity for 1200 people, a sophisticated sound and illumination system. In addition, it has an exclusive VIP area where shows and presentations with fire, water and balloons are carried out. This nightclub does not open its doors before 10 PM.
For Caribbean music the options abound. Some of the most important are Basic Lounge, where you can take salsa dance lessons as a courtesy of the house; La Bodeguita del Medio, where you can enjoy specialty Cuban drinks as you listen to live salsa beats; you can take free salsa lessons at specific times, too. Another option of tropical music is the Mambo Cafe, where it is possible to dance to the rhythm of the salsa bands until dawn.
To party all night, the Riviera Maya is the most suitable place. From family shows to wild parties, there is an option for each taste in the Riviera Maya.
