Mojito Beach Club — Restaurant in Quintana Roo

The beach club itself is truly beautiful – the design, the atmosphere, and the overall aesthetic are clearly created with love and attention to detail. The location is stunning, with a gorgeous view of the beach, and the loungers were comfortable (400 pesos for the day p.p) which was fair considering the setting).

The food was good – nothing to complain about – and the drinks were fine as well. The minimum spend was 1400 pesos, which we didn’t fully use up. At the end, there were about 55 pesos still open from the minimum spend. On top of this, we also left 100 pesos as a tip. Altogether, this is basically around 10% extra – which is a fair amount.

Unfortunately, the waiter was not satisfied with this and insisted that we should give over 20% tip, even suggesting we pay by card. This pressure felt uncomfortable and unnecessary, especially because tipping should be optional and reflect the service, not be forced.

It’s a shame, because the place itself is absolutely worth visiting – the setting is magical – but this situation at the end spoiled an otherwise...

Overall, Mojito Beach Club offers good quality food on the beach. We loved the grilled fish. Unfortunately, we didn't understand that each bed was a 200k rental, plus a minimum of 500k for food and drink. Expect to pay 400k for 2 beds and a minimum of 500k for food and beverages. The servers were not very approachable and took forever to clear our table. Also, we were very uncomfortable with the servers when it was time to pay our bill. We went to pay at the counter, but one server made us go back to our sun bed, where he insisted on cash tips over and over again. We explained that we didn't have any more cash and that we would leave the tip on the card. When I went back to the bar to pay with the machine, he insisted yet again. We received uncomfortable stares from the staff during this moment and felt pressured to leave a cash tip. We are usually very generous when leaving service tips, but being pressured over and over again is not professional, so for this reason, we do not...

If anyone is complaining about seaweed... It's Holbox, at certain times of the year, there will be seaweed. All you need to go is hop over it and enjoy the sea!

Secondly, we paid 700 pesos, 500 pesos goes towards food which was annoying as other beach bars cost 500 pesos that all went towards food BUT I will say the food was really good and the mango mojitos were the best i had on the island. It was a chill vibe with music in the afternoon, perfect for what we wanted. Our server was nice and would regularly check to see if we needed everything. Wish we knew more Spanish so we could chat more. Would recommend if you're looking for a more quiet beach bar. I would recommend choosing your bed wisely as we couldn't move our beds and the sun...
