Coco Bar is an incredible place with such a fun, relaxed, and lively atmosphere. The music is great, the energy is always high, and it’s the perfect spot to hang out, dance, and enjoy the night. The vibe feels welcoming and social, making it easy to have a great time whether you’re with friends or meeting new people. The setup, lighting, and overall ambiance really stand out, and the staff keep everything running smoothly. Definitely one of those places that leaves you with good memories and makes you want to come back again. Highly recommend checking out Coco Bar if you’re looking for great energy and a fun experience.

This club is definitely about the night life. Hiphop, reggae etc. Staff may be a little pushy to buy shots etc.

It was ok, but they're constantly trying to rip you off. Not only with extra services. A specific drink at one of the bars cost 140 pesos. They did not accept cards and they did not give me my 60 pesos change back - not even after I asked it and also very clearly gestured it... Then we just left for the great atmosphere and it was sure fun. All in all the open bar night cost me between 120-150 USD. On Friday night it was packed, too much people so we needed to fight for our standing space.

I honestly never leave bad reviews, but this one needs to be said. Last night my boyfriend and I were walking around Cancun when one of the many reps on the street stopped us to promote Congo Bar. The whole area is full of these people trying to sell you something, which already felt a bit much, but this guy seemed genuine. We wanted to have a fun night out, it’s our first time in Cancun, so we decided to give it a try. He sold us tickets for $35 each and insisted we pay by card, even though I said I’d rather pay cash. He took us to Coco Bongo to make the payment, which made no sense but we trusted him (clearly the two places are obviously connected). The moment we got inside Congo Bar, we realised what a huge scam it was. The place was nothing like what we were promised ,it had a trashy vibe, super loud hip-hop music, and people literally doing drugs in the bathrooms. Within five minutes of walking in, we looked at each other and said “nope.” We went straight to the front to explain the situation and ask for a refund. The staff member said he’d call the manager, so we waited... and waited. Over half an hour later, the manager finally appeared but had no idea what to do. Then they made us wait another 30 minutes for the same rep who scammed us in the first place! When the rep showed up, he started arguing with the manager, saying we shouldn’t get a refund. Honestly, it looked like he was the one in charge, not the manager. Eventually, they told us they “can’t cancel card payments”, which is just ridiculous. Basically, if you pay by card, you’re stuck no matter what happens. They refused to take any responsibility, and there’s no proper way to contact them — no email, no customer service, nothing. So now I’m going through my bank to dispute the payment. Congo Bar is a complete tourist trap. Don’t fall for the street reps, no matter how friendly they seem. Save your money and go somewhere else.

The food included in the gold member package is just fries, hot dogs n burgers. Server took care of us properly, most of the night. I do recommend to arrive early and check in before staring time so you can get access as soon as they open and take the better seats. I did not see too much difference between gold member vs first row gold member. I would also recommend to buy tickets in advanced. Good experience.
