Champaign, g strings, house musique, welcome to Mamitas

Mamitas is basically Nikki Beaches twin brother….or the Mexican version. Every time I pass by here I feel obliged to do any one (or all) of the following;

a) where my best tiger stripped Speedo
b) apply copious amounts of baby oil
c) get an ass implant
d) flex

This place is a Mecca for those who love sexiness, house musique, see and be seen if you know what I mean. I’ve tried some of Mamitas sushi dishes which were excellent. The live dj’s make it an ideal place to chill all afternoon. You need to get there early and order (yes pay) for a daybed facing the ocean or settle for daybeds closer to the dj’s / restaurant. You can set up your towel for free but Mamitas gets soooo packed during the day that you can forget about setting up between the day beds…..head to the outskirts.

If you’re having self confidence issues Mamitas might not be the place for you. Or if you haven’t waxed your back, also not a good idea to chill here unless of course you’re a rich guy…..then you can do whatever you want, just keep the Champaign flowing. Word will quickly spread that “the guy with the hairy back drinking Champaign….I heard he’s a movie star”

Mamitas and Papitos no longer?

My first experience at Mamitas was 2 years ago, and this consisted of Crystal on ice, beautiful woman trying to outdo each other with the skimpiest THONG (is that even possible?) and plumpest buttocks, jacked guys lounging on the daybeds, flexing their abs and almost non-existent biceps.. swarmed with these beautiful “brazilian model type” women dancing around them, to the beat of cool house tunes…

It was without question, the place where the WHO’s WHO hangs out…and if you used the word MAMITAS in your vocabulary…you were instantly cool!

That was 2 years ago….

I think it’s fair to now say it’s the HAS BEEN place to go. Mamita’s now caters to mostly national tourists from Mexico’s main cities: Monterrey, Guadalajara and Mexico City. It’s now where the COOL WANNA BE’s go. Most of the guys will be wearing their Vilebrequin trunks that are way too tight on the crotch…maybe intentionally to create the illusion of a bulging package? Who knows….

I just know that Mamitas has lost it’s cool and upper echelon status.

Nonetheless, it does host some pretty amazing events such as the 3rd annual BPM festival which is raving mad with the ultimate party-goers from around the world.

It’s also SUPER bumping during both Xmas, NYE and Semana Santa (holy week)

We’ll see how long this popularity contest holds up, as Satanera, one of Playa del Carmen’s most popular night clubs is building their own beach club just a few hundred meters north of Mamitas.
