About this Bar

Day-to-night playground where beach beats meet late-night magic

Vagalume fires up early with a sun-drenched beach club scene—DJ booths on the sand, daybeds under shade, and a crowd that orders magnums and dances barefoot by the water. Think high-energy Mediterranean-coastal vibes with bottle service, percussion drops, and confetti bursts when the room hits its stride. After sunset, the lights sharpen, fire rituals spark up, and the soundtrack shifts toward organic and melodic house. The night gathers pace around the central dance floor, drawing a stylish, international mix that stays until the last track.

About the neighborhood

Tulum’s beachfront strip built for seamless day-to-night

Set along the Hotel Zone’s sandy corridor, Vagalume sits among boutique hotels, dining nooks, and late-night lounges. The area is walkable for venue-hopping, but most guests use taxis or private drivers due to limited parking and jungle traffic. Expect a scene-forward crowd, beach markets by day, and candlelit pathways once the sun goes down.

The place has the energy like nothing else. The staff is very accommodating. Famous for electronic music events. Do check out their event schedule before planning your trip for a great experience. The cover charge to enter is also not very high considering it’s Tulum.

We ate at Vagalume our first night in Tulum and it was delicious. There were 2 of us and we were the only ones dining that evening as they were starting to close. The ambience was great but the music was loud, bass heavy party beach club music. We enjoyed it but if that is not your music style you may not enjoy your experience. Food was amazing. We had the fried cauliflower in a pumpkin sauce and the beef that was cooked in a pineapple with cheese then serve it with fresh tortillas. Apologies for not knowing the actual names of the dishes. Both unreal and we were totally full after sharing these 2 dishes. Service was impeccable. Only con was the cocktails were expensive (380 MXN) and tasted average. Mine was similar to an old fashioned but tasted watered down. This price is not unique to Vagalume as it is the same for cocktails up and down this strip but I would expect a spectacular cocktail for that price point. Would go here for a nice dinner out based on the prices.

Valencia and Orlando were absolutely amazing. The attention to detail!! The food was delicious and plentiful. Large servings. Excellent flavor. Someone is always available to attend to whatever you need. The restaurant is clean and safe. Fans are blowing. The bathrooms are great. We had a large party with no complaints whatsoever. We came for a birthday and they brought out a delicious cake for our birthday gal. They check for allergies (which our group has) and ensured the food and drinks meet our requirements. There’s also a market where artisans display handmade items. My friend bought a dress that looks custom made just for her. Highly recommend this place when you visit Tulum.

Our evening at Vagalume Tulum was truly unforgettable! The place has such a magical atmosphere, and everything from the music to the setting was perfect. The food was fresh and full of flavor, and the cocktails were amazing. What really made the difference was the service — Ángel and Lalo took care of every detail with so much kindness and attention. They made us feel welcome from the first moment and ensured we had everything we needed to enjoy the night. Thanks to them, our experience went from great to exceptional. We can’t wait to come back soon!

Super delicious food!! Great service, we had David & Gabriel as our servers they were super kind and made us feel luxurious💗 It has a fun vibe to it, not a lot of people dancing, but we went on a Wednesday night so that makes sense. Great drinks! I had the burger and it was so amazing as well as the Largata mixed drink and we were treated amazing here. Wish there was better music, but it was still enjoyable
