Where can you watch the sunset together?
On the beachfront of Playa de las Américas, at OA Beach Club: its chiringuito serves from 16:00 to 22:00, with a happy hour until 17:00. The team behind it calls the spot one of the island's best for the sunset, and warns that the hours can change.
A few steps along, Kong, the bar at Monkey Beach Club, pairs cocktails with sunset DJ sets every day from 12:00 to 01:00. It takes no reservations, so arrive early for a good spot.
Is there a rooftop for dinner?
Yes: Cielo sits at the very top of Monkey Beach Club, with sushi, tartares, tiraditos, tapas and premium cocktails, live music and a Solete from the Repsol Guide. It opens from Tuesday to Saturday.
The kitchen runs from 19:00 to 23:00, and the rooftop closes at 01:00, or at 02:00 on Fridays. Guests must be 16 or over, and tables are booked through its own website.
Can dinner include the club?
At Papagayo, yes. AWA, the restaurant on the club's upper floor, includes entry to the club when you spend at least €50 per person on dinner; below that, entry is paid separately.
Dinner needs a booking. AWA serves from Wednesday to Sunday, from 19:00 to 00:00, with last orders at 23:00, and is closed on Mondays and Tuesdays.
A slower afternoon on Papagayo's terrace
If the night starts early, Papagayo's seafront terrace opens from 12:00 to 22:00, with resident DJs at a volume you can talk over. Tables need no booking: you take any free one.
It is a terrace, not a pool club: the venue says plainly that there is no pool and there are no sunbeds.
And if you do want to dance?
Pick a night that ends at a reasonable hour. Sunday's Piknik at Papagayo, house, disco and funk with live percussion, finishes at 03:00 on the club's own event pages, while Papagayo's nights close between 03:00 and 05:00 depending on the day.
On Thursdays, The White Party turns the beach club above the sea into a dance floor from 22:30 to 03:45, dressed in white. For what to wear on each night, see our outfit guide.
