Why, oh why don't you have a dance floor?! If you don't have a reserved table, you'll have nowhere to dance or stand without being in the way. It's such a shame of a set-up because the music is great (if you like 90's and early 2000's hip hop) and the gigantic drinks actually make the open bar worthwhile. Loved the decor, too -- but you'll only appreciate it if you think cows are funny (if you don't think so, you're a monster).

Free shots , yummy: )

I have been here 2 times and its so much fun !! We went out for my boyfriends bday while we were in Cancun and came here . We bought our ticket at the resort $35 each including the taxi ride , drinks included huge drinks! The music is always great and updated, the dancers are awesome and the staff is so friendly so too and be nice , it goes a long way in Mexico.. We danced all night and had a blast. The only bad thing was that I drank water and I should know better , it made me so sick , so stick to alcohol and water out of a bottle and the resort's water since it's from a water bottle .

Of all the places to party in Cancun, La Vaquita has made my top 3! On my most recent trip to Cancun, one night after a long day of excursions and riding on a tour bus my friends and I thought we'd be done for the day. Our drop off destination was in the area of this club and while walking pass across the street we were stopped by one of the promoters for the club. Now normally I usually don't stop but the guy who approached us was super chill and not pushy! He made a deal for my friends and I which we couldn't turn down AND received the VIP experience. We bought our tickets, went to our hotel to change and returned. Same guy was at the door as promised and escorted us in to our section and the fun began! We had a blast!! Great music! Great drinks! And plenty dancing, what else could you ask for?

We were ripped off..14 of us, $35 a piece for a section & open bar. The "section" was a small round table, we had to flag down the waiter to keep bringing drinks. The drinks were in these large gas station cups so I know barely alcohol was in it. I order straight Bacardi rum. Both times, both cups tasted NOTHING like rum but straight juice. 2 hours into the night, no one felt any liquor. The only thing I enjoyed was I came all the way from ATL &represented. I came in 2nd in the twerk contest! 1x INTERNATIONAL TWERK CHAMP lol

The Little Cow Club

This is possibly the only cow-themed hip-hop bar on the planet, and it's the only hip-hop bar in Cancún, so it's worth a stop through to check it out. However, as soon as you get within a block, you have already checked it out. What do I mean by that? Well, have you ever been to a place where there are no windows, a velvet rope and a line outside, and you get inside only to be disappointed that no one is in there? Well, that would never happen here because this place is the exact opposite. Like many of the clubs in Cancún, there are only three walls, so you can see in the club before you get there. That means that you get to hear the music and see the crowd before you even get inside. While this is great as you know if you will get your money's worth, you may soon find yourself remembering how important a/c is if it is one of those 90 degree/90% humidity nights. Not the greatest club experience, but hey, at least you know what you are going to get.

Get ready to moo-ve your body at the most quirky and fun nightclub in Cancun! It's spotted, black and white decoration make it impossible to miss amongst the other blasting nightclubs. As soon as you arrive you'll be taken in by the party, just don't mind the giant hanging cows. The service is great, just what you would expect from the owners, Grupo Mandala, who also own most of the other clubs in the area. As far as drinks and music go you can't expect anything much different than its sister clubs, but this one surely has something special to it. In no time you'll be milking the fun out of this place, just don't forget to bring the honeys.

The drinks were very strong which surprised me since this place is open bar I thought the drinks might be a little watered down.

I was definitely a little hesitant about going to ANY club on the strip due to some of the negative…read moreTrip Advisor reviews... and while some of the issues were somewhat legit, my wife and I still had an amazing time here and it was exactly the kind of music I was looking to dance to. While I do wish they played a tad more reggaeton, they do classify as being a "top 40" club and the DJ lived up to that by playing a perfect blend of 120+ BPM pop, EDM, hip hop and Latin music. We got there about 10:40 and I guess they still hadn't open yet so Diego walked us straight into La Vaquita to get us a drink while we waited. Once Dady'O opened he walked us directly inside and hooked us up with a table! This wasn't included in our basic open bar tickets, but we weren't complaining! It was definitely nice to have and kept my wife comfortable throughout the night. Enrique was our bartender and while he did hit me up as we were leaving for yet another tip, he was great throughout the entire night and kept bringing us our drinks and rounds of shots for us and the tables next to us! Yes, there was a guy (don't believe an actual club employee though) who would ask as you left if you "needed anything", but thankfully I never had to talk to him as he was always busy when I walked by... but kids, just say no to drugs and you'll be alright! We're definitely coming back to do it again... however, I would bring a little extra cash since these guys really do take care of you when you take care of them.

Didn't wait on any lines. Didn't have to go to the crowded bar. Was able to dance by our table and on the crowded dance floor. Staff all super nice & kept the drinks flowing. Music was basic AF (perfect). I'm still drunk writing this review and it's 9AM the next morning. You walk in and it feels like a cave. It's darkly lit. There are small tables surrounded a tiered dance floor. It started to get really crowded around 11:30 PM. I highly recommend for a girls night- such fun, dance-y music AND clean bathrooms w no lines (score?!? where all the girls at in Cancun?!). Do yourself a favor, though, and get some sort of deal otherwise you'll be waiting in line forevz.

The Congo Bar is a crazy place no doubt. It is a standalone bar and tight (literally) dance place…read more It is loosely related to Congo Bongo and also used by promoters as a starting line leading up to showtime at Congo Bongo. Outrageous lighting, falling balloons, super loud music, buckets of beers, cheap alcoholic drinks, loud MC yelling, and dancing girls on small stages rounds out the Congo Bar. You will also have the typical opportunity to buy jello shots, roses, and photographs of you and yours; pretty standard at these types of places in Mexico. The Congo Bar is a fun place, and almost every crowd I have seen there has been friendly. Everyone just wants to have fun. On only one occasion did I see a drunk out of control, and the security quickly dealt with it. Speaking of security, the bouncers are very good keeping an eye on who's coming in and going out. They seem to do a good job searching folks on the way in and making sure people don't get too out of control. One of the officers, Alexander, is awesome. He always greets us and hangs out nearby while we visit. We don't stay very long, but it's still a fun place to visit.

They say it's all you can drink but this was the most crowded club I've ever been to. They overpacked the place so so much. There was constant pushing and shoving. It didn't stop. Had so many drinks spilled on me. The floor was literally black with mud, dirt, and drinks, they had people coming around to mop the floors. It was insane. We spent an hour just trying to get drinks at the bar and they were not even strong. The music was ok. Mostly hip hop. It finally got less crowded at 2am but the place closed at 3am and it was a very rough place. Absolutely zero room to move and dance. One of the worst club experiences. Only good thing is it's open air so it didn't get too stuffy or hot.

You will pass through a metal detector and asked if you are carrying in any food or drinks ( not allowed) EVENT SPACES: The groom had reserved two private cabanas overlooking a semi private pool just steps from the beach. There was ample shade provided by sturdy patio III umbrellas, private casitas, each seating 10 adults. ATMOSPHERE: Common areas are look tired in the day light. I'm sure that the flaws are masked by the pool lights once the sun sets. Our private party was at the far end of the club; a 10x14' pool flanked by patio furniture in one side and 5 private cabanas on the other. The cabanas were set up living room style with a sofa, coffee table and cabinets for personal belongings. The view from one of the casitas was oceanfront making a lovely backdrop for photos. The music was obnoxiously loud most of the time with pounding bass. Our crowd was celebrating the Grooms and they a great time. In our case, the grooms were running a tab- open bar and order from an extensive bar menu. FOOD: Well presented and the guests seemed to enjoy it. My allergies were an obstacle to most of the menu, but I enjoyed the fruit OUR SERVERS were amazing. Taking orders and finding the guests was like wrangling cats but somehow they did an amazing job. This please is really suited for a 25-40 year old crowd. You know: the clubbing set. Would I recommend it for an older group? No. Was the event successful? The grooms were pleased, so we were also.

We had been walking in the area earlier that day and made a plan to come back for dinner. When we arrived there were a lot of people but we were seated immediately. Martin was our waiter and he was great. There were a few large screen TVs playing sports. There was live music. A lot was going on but it really worked. People were enjoying themselves and the wait staff was friendly and talkative. I ordered shrimp fajitas and my husband ordered the mole. He always orders mole. The meals were very good. We ordered a mango margarita and Tecate. The margarita came with a tehine rim. I just wiped it off. That is becoming so popular. I decided to indulge in the banana dessert and I am glad I did. It came with a show. That was fun and the dessert was delicious. We were there earlier in the evening and we saw many couples and families. I'm sure the place gets a little more livelier as the night goes on. If you are in the area, this is a good place to eat and enjoy your time in Cancun.
