Live Music & Nightlife on the Beach in El Nido

From sunset into the evening, Mabuhay comes alive.

Located directly on El Nido’s beachfront, Mabuhay Sports Bar is a relaxed place to enjoy live music, cold drinks, good food and a night out with friends.

We regularly feature talented local and visiting musicians, with different styles and performers throughout the week. Come down for dinner, stay for the music, grab a cocktail or cold beer and enjoy the atmosphere right beside the beach.

Whether you’re finishing a day of island hopping, meeting friends for drinks or looking for somewhere to spend the evening in El Nido, Mabuhay is an easy place to settle in and stay awhile.

A Different Night at Mabuhay

No two nights need to feel the same.

Depending on the evening, you may find acoustic music, popular classics, rock, chilled beach tunes, guest musicians, DJs or special events.

Mabuhay attracts a mix of travellers, locals and regular visitors, creating a friendly atmosphere where it is easy to meet people, enjoy the music and make a night of it.

Come early for dinner, stay for the entertainment and enjoy El Nido nightlife right on the beachfront

More Than Live Music

Between sets, challenge your friends to a game of pool, grab a drink at the bar or simply relax and enjoy the beachfront atmosphere.

Mabuhay is designed as a social venue — somewhere you can come for an hour and easily end up staying for the evening.

Pool at Mabuhay

Pool is a big part of life at Mabuhay Sports Bar. We have a strong local and international following, with regular players, organised competitions and exhibition matches throughout the year.

Over time, Mabuhay has welcomed highly experienced players, including world-class and champion-level competitors, who have joined us for special exhibition games and events.

Whether you are a serious player, a casual visitor or just enjoy watching a good match, the pool area adds another level to the Mabuhay atmosphere. Keep an eye on our social pages for upcoming competitions, visiting players and special events.

Italian-Style Coffee by the Beach

Start your day, take a break, or finish your meal with a proper coffee at Mabuhay. Our Italian-style coffee station serves freshly made espresso, cappuccino, latte and other café favourites, prepared throughout the day.

Whether you’re meeting friends, relaxing after the beach or settling in before the evening begins, it’s an easy place to enjoy good coffee in a relaxed beachfront setting.
