Top 3 best hotels near bars in Cancun, Mexico

I want to start with my favorite right away. Located at Atelier Playa Mujeres-All Inclusive Resort in the Playa Mujeres area away from the center of Cancun. What is wonderful about this place is that it is much quieter here and there are no crowds of tourists. This option may not have famous Mexican nightlife venues around, but inside this luxurious five-star hotel, there are immediately ten bars! Wow!

It's cool that Atelier Playa Mujeres operates on an "all inclusive" basis. This means that I can gradually choose my favorite cocktails from all the options available. I don't want to rush anywhere, I have two weeks of vacation ahead and 10 bars, each with its own atmosphere.

Long before the trip, I plan to check out the program of the theater bar El Deseo. Here, nights dedicated to cinema, theater, and other cultural events are held. One evening, I'll stop by La Cantina bar, which has the look of a typical Mexican bar from past years.

The next day, you can find me on the hotel rooftop at the Inspira Rooftop bar with an infinity pool. The view from here overlooks the green surroundings and the sea. Of course, these are not all the bars. There's also a lounge bar and a lobby bar, by the pool and many others. All of them offer exceptional service. But I want to keep the intrigue and explore them upon arrival!

At the Atelier Playa Mujeres, only adults are allowed to stay, and this is already a big advantage. This means that only those whose lifestyle matches mine the most are here. Plus, it's a great opportunity to meet beautiful guys and girls and visit local bars together. It’s much more fun that way! Additionally, I have already found several interesting excursions and water activities for which I need companions.

I have heard about the area of Cancun called Zona Hotelera from my friends, who advise staying only here. This place is for those looking for a quality beach vacation and the most famous nightclubs around. I think everyone knows such Mexican nightclubs as Coco Bongo, The City, Mandala. All of them are here, in Zona Hotelera. Next to them, I was lucky to find a cool bar where I will spend time before dancing. After the entertainment, I will hurry back to my cozy room at the Grand Fiesta Americana Coral Beach Resort & Spa.

Located 250 meters from my hotel is the Monkey Business Cancun bar. The symbol of this place is a big monkey. All guests love to take photos with it. Live rock music is played here, large portions of delicious dishes are served along with refreshing drinks, and importantly: all public spaces are clean. The music is quite loud, so it will be difficult to have a conversation with your table mate. 

The mood of the guests is kept up by an entertainer who entertains them with shot preparations, invites them to dance, and so on. I plan to order the signature Monkeyburger for $13.5 and a beer for $4 based on the recommendations of regulars. 

Probably, this is the only option from my list where I found not a bar at the hotel, but a popular city establishment. Well, sometimes it's worth stepping outside the box. However, at the Grand Fiesta Americana Coral Beach Resort & Spa, the restaurants (there are as many as nine!) are much more popular. On the other hand, there is just a huge spa center: 3700 square meters! If I become a frequent visitor to the Monkey Business Cancun bar, restorative treatments will not be unnecessary😄 

I am moving to another hotel in the Zona Hotelera area. I chose the Kempinski Hotel for a reason. Those who have already been here once definitely return next time. This is an indicator that, despite some small flaws, guests remain satisfied with the service.

If I see that I can add the "all inclusive" option when booking, I don't hesitate for a second. During my vacation, I want to relax as much as possible, not counting every second the money for food and drinks. That's why I plan to visit the beach grill bar Caribe at the Kempinski hotel often. I have been looking for a good bar by the sea in Cancun for a long time, and I am glad that I found it. I was impressed that I hear rave reviews from every guest about the dishes, drinks, service, and even the beach loungers (they are soft and comfortable). But if I didn't have the all inclusive option, the prices would seem quite high to me: a classic Margherita pizza costs $19. Moreover, the opening hours are limited: the establishment closes at 6:00 PM. Although I think a whole day will be enough for me to get a good tan and enjoy a couple of cocktails in between swims in the sea. 

Local taxi drivers say it's the best hotel in Cancun. Sounds intriguing, doesn't it? The highlight is its staff, who remember the name of every guest. The Fortino restaurant, which is world-class, deserves special praise. I wish everyone could try the dishes there. In general, if I choose this place to stay, I will have a magnificent vacation. I will be navigating between relaxing on the beach at the Caribe bar, indulging in the breakfast buffet, and burning calories at the disco in Coco Bongo🤩
