This is definitely more of a show than a nightclub. The show is amazing with trapez artists flying over the club, and dancing/singing to popular songs. It is a must see for all ages when visiting Cancun. If you just pay the cover price and get bottle service you can be seated instead of standing all night. The open bar drinks are not that great. The waiters seem to expect quite a bit of tip. We gave our waiter a $20 tip, then three rounds of drinks later he actually said to me "Feel free to tip me at any time". I thought that was extremely rude. We went twice to Coco Bongos since we saw a banner that said there are new shows every night. However, the second time we went the show was 95% the same. It is not very entertaining the second time.

Coco Bongo is not the place to be if you are a grown up who is not interested in getting smashed and acting stupid. This is simply a bar. If you are 21 and on spring break, this would be the place for you. DO NOT waste your time spending more on tickets that will get you in before everyone else - it is a scam and even if your trip representative sells them to you - do not fall for it!! We spent the extra $ and watched and watched for at least 45 minutes as dozens of other people entered before us. There are drunk people everywhere - I was being bumped into constantly - they pack way too many people into this very, very small place. I also had a few drinks spilled on me. We only stayed about 30 - 45 minutes because we hated it so much. What a waste of money!

Coco Bongo was a great attraction. My husband and I went while on our honeymoon in Cancun. We were entertained the whole time we were there from about 11pm until 3am. They had amazing shows with acrobatics. I couldn't believe all the shows they had--lots of good impersonators. Also, we had a reserved area and Gustavo was our waiter for the whole night. He took care of us with our drinks and if anyone would try to come into our area, Gustavo would let them know we were in a reserved area. He was a great addition to the evening.
I would definitely recommened Coco Bongo--it's was a unique experience. FYI--The club is crowded. If possible talk with the travel agent at your hotel or call the club ahead of time to see if you can get a seat reserved at the club.

The last time I was at Coco Bongo I felt the staff was arrogant. I am the biggest Cancun fan ever. It's my favorite place to vacation. I was there right before the swine flu scare - April 15 - April 20 for the 5th time in 18 months. I was accompanied by my friend her daughter and mine. Both girls were 18 and I had never had to have them bring proof before and they would not let us in even after we prepaid the admission. We did get out money back that evening and went to the City. Since when do you need proof in Cancun - and bring their passports into the club - I don't think so. The City was more than happy to accomodate us and we had a great time. They were hassling alot of customers because they think they have a gold mine now. The manager did not care and said go back to your hotel and get your passports. (Another $9 each way). Sorry but I'm glad they suffered the closure due to the swine flu - maybe they will humble out and be nicer to the tourists that support them. They slammed the gates in our faces and I felt I was in a communist country. I have visited the club before and must say it is really fun.
