We visited this resturant with edventure tours! It was a awesome location right on the beach we sat at a table outside literally on the beach. The service was good the food and drinks came out pretty fast I had chicken fajitas which were delicious. They had a really cool bar with swinging seats around it. I would deff recomend... more

Wonderful food, excellent service, a view that is second to none, and those caressing Caribbean breezes! La Buena Vida is a must for all visitors to the Yucatan! In my 20+ years of traveling to Cancun and points south, I NEVER miss a trip or two to La Buena Vida! more

La Buena Vida is the one constant I can count on during my trips to Mexico. Even if I'm staying in Cancun I make the trip to savor the view, food and atmosphere. This is my idea of vacation!! Cold beer, wonderful service, marvelous food while sitting with my feet up and the ocean breeze in my face. more

We had lunch here during an Edventure Tour. While the prices are higher than eating lunch at a crappy Midwestern Mexican restaurant, we felt they were in line with the view & the portions.

The setting for the ceremony and restaurant was beautiful and... more

La Buena Vida restaurant is fantastic. The food and drinks are excellent, the waiters and bartenders are always friendly, and the location is incredible. This is one of the best places to take the family when visiting the Riviera Maya. I went down to LBV on a day trip my first time down in the Yucatan and have been going... more

What a great location. You can sit right next to the ocean and enjoy drinks and appetizers. The kids loved the swings at the bar. We had dinner, but the food was really so-so. The beers were cold though!! We went snorkeling afterwards which was really fun. We would go again...but just for drinks and appetizers. more

Went for lunch one day, neat place, nice view of Half Moon Bay, food was good, not great, didn't go for dinner, but did go back to have a couple cervezas at the swing bar one night. Got a great t-shirt with skeleton logo for sale across the street for $15.00. more
