    This review is only based on the club at night. At night, this club is extremely lit. The Club predominantly played hip hop and reggae on the night I went. It was packed. The concierge at my hotel sold passes for $40 which counted towards drinks purchased. I would definitely recommend Mandala for a good time. TIP: confirm the type of music spinning the night you're interested in going.

    Plastic that I choked on

    Found a piece of a bottle cap in my drink and they said "this is normal at a bar." Tried to be cool about it and just ask for a new, better table; as we had already paid around $5,000MX for a bottle and they weren't having it. Not to mention it was my birthday and they said they would get me a shot... they never did. If you like horrible service and drinking plastic that's big enough to choke on, this is the spot for you!

    Horrible experience! Came to the day club for a bachelorette and the venue was very small and packed. Our group bought a "table" because it would have collectively cost less than just paying an entrance fee. The table/bed area was crowded with people. The pool water looked murky... it was disgusting. Everything was overpriced; we ended up paying $162 USD for water for just 9 people. Definitely a rip off, but we didn't want to be dehydrated. Amidst of all the chaos, my phone and wallet were stolen. My best guess is that it was stolen by an employee while they were were coming back and forth to clear our table. I had my phone's location tracked and it was still in the club after closing and then eventually made its way to a residential area in the photos I attached. Little did they know my phone can still track even if it was shut off.

    Sushi + drinks!

    We came to the mandala beach club on a Saturday for their pool party and it was great! Chill music and the $40 ticket was enough to cover 3-4 drinks plus some sushi the food was really good too!! It was a good vibe and will definitely return!

    We had a villa for my bachelorette and it was great because we had our own hot tub/mini pool in the front of the villa. The view of the beach was gorgeous and the venue itself was modern. It was more chill than other pool parties that I've been to in Vegas and Miami, but it was a nice escape from the typical "untz untz untz", especially after partying all weekend. We ordered 2 bottles and a ton of food to meet the minimum. Eduardo was our server and he was accommodating and friendly throughout our time there, and always made sure our glasses were flowing with booze. However, I wasn't a fan of the other employees coming up to us multiple times to try to sell us stuff (hookah, massages, etc.). Mandala Beach Club is right next to Mandala nightclub and is its own separate entity. There seemed to be some confusion at the front desk regarding our minimums, but it all got squared away and we had a great time here!

    Foam and pool = a blast!

    Tuesday night is for resting, right? Wrong! Tuesday night in Cancun is for the best party in town. Fast bartenders, beautiful people in swimsuits, a nice set-up even for non-bottle service ballers, a pool in which you can swim while drunk, and foam being shot out of cannons?! Yessir, this is what you wanted out of Cancun.

    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.

I saw so many videos and read so much hype about this place. I was excited to try it. I was just as disappointed when I threw out my burrito after a couple of bites. The food here is not good. It is so basic. I ordered chili cheese fries, and a burrito. For the burrito, you have to complete a form for your customizations, which I thought was going to be efficient. Unfortunately, despite my burrito, having everything in it that it was supposed to, I was overwhelmed by the massive amount of onions. Additionally, I was underwhelmed by the amount of shrimp inside my burrito. There weren't many at all and the entire burrito literally tasted like nothing. I ordered the shrimp and mahi. There was absolutely nothing remarkable about it. For a second, I almost wondered if I had Covid because the flavor was so lacking.But after speaking to friends of mine who also visited, I realized that I wasn't the only one. In total, I spent about US$32 on an order of chili cheese fries, a jerk, chicken, quesadilla, and a burrito. Fries: so bland. I wanted to throw them out, but I saved them and took them back to my hotel and added salt. It helped a bit, but these were overwhelmingly underseasoned and lacking flavor. The portion, however, was huge. Two out of five. Burrito: more mahi-mahi than shrimp, and neither protein was flavorful. The entire burrito was very bland and was full of more onions than I would ever care to eat. The burrito wasn't OK size, but it did not taste good. Two out of five. Jerk, chicken quesadilla: basic. Not super flavorful. And the chicken did not taste like jerk chicken at all. It didn't even have jerk flavor. Didn't even taste like they rolled the chicken in a little bit of jerk before cooking it. Three out of five. The staff noticed that I did not eat much of my food and asked if I didn't like it. I informed them that I did not like it and that I didn't think it had enough flavor. They did not care. I didn't fully expect them to because I know customer service is very different in Mexico, but I expected more. She even asked if the burrito was too spicy, which was hilarious because there was nothing spicy or even flavorful about it. This is very much a hole in the wall, kind of spot that has been blown up on social media. Very casual vibes, and there appears to be a small roof area where you can overlook the street. I would not return here. I also would not recommend it. Another example of influencers likely getting free food in exchange for review reviews. However, they do have a sign up that says you can get a free shot if you leave a review.
