Costa Adeje: Tenerife Monkey Beach Club Utopia Pool Party
Book on GetYourGuide →Operated by Utopia Boat Party · Bookable on GetYourGuide
A rooftop pool party in Costa Adeje means you get sun and sound in one place. At Cielo Monkey Beach Club, the big draw is the infinity pool plus nonstop live entertainment with DJs, MCs, singers, dancers, percussion players, and even a live saxophonist. One thing to watch: your ticket covers access only, so if you want a spot to sit, you may need to upgrade on arrival.
I like that the venue is built for views. You’re looking out over the beach scene around Troya and Las Americas, and the terrace setting is made for watching the light change over the Atlantic. If you’re hoping for a huge, spread-out party space, consider that the experience can feel small depending on the day and crowd.

Monkey Beach Club Utopia: a rooftop pool party above Costa Adeje

This is the kind of Tenerife outing that feels less like a sit-and-watch event and more like a planned day of hanging out, moving to music, and using the pool like it’s part of the main show. The Monkey Beach Club set-up at Cielo is a rooftop setup, so you get that “high above the beach” perspective that’s hard to find at ground level.
The heart of the party is the mix. You’re not just listening to a DJ playlist and calling it a night. The entertainment includes DJs and MCs, plus a rotating lineup of live performers: saxophone, dancers, percussion players, and singers. That matters because it keeps the vibe from going predictable. Even if you’re not a huge club person, the live elements give you something to lock onto every so often.
Duration is 6 hours. That’s long enough to settle in, find your rhythm, and enjoy at least part of the sun-to-sunset shift. It’s also long enough that comfort choices start to matter, especially if you want a place to sit.

Where the views come from: the Cielo terrace over Troya and Las Americas

The venue’s location is the quiet selling point. Cielo Monkey Beach Club looks out over both Troya and Las Americas beaches, so your backdrop changes as you move around. From the terrace, you’re getting wide open ocean sightlines toward La Gomera on clear days, which is exactly the kind of scenery you’d normally spend time traveling for.
For planning, think of the view as a built-in activity. Even between dance breaks, you can step out toward the terrace edge and reset your eyes and ears. If you’re traveling with friends who don’t always want the same thing, this helps: one group can stay by the pool and music, and another can float toward the terrace and just enjoy the ocean.
The setting also affects the photo factor. You’ll likely want your phone out at some point because rooftop venues naturally give you angles you don’t get on most Tenerife beaches. Just keep expectations realistic: it’s an event with people, not a quiet lookout.
Your six-hour flow: check-in, pool time, and the live show rhythm

Here’s how I’d mentally map your day so you don’t spend the first hour figuring it out on the fly.
Check-in at the Cielo side door
When you arrive, you check in at the private side door named Cielo at the Monkey Beach Club. The greeters are listed as English and Spanish, so you should be able to get oriented quickly. Do not assume you’ll find everything from a street entrance labeled for you. Go straight to the Cielo door and get in.
Find your base: infinity pool vs. terrace
Once you’re in, your first decision is where you’ll spend most of your time. The infinity pool is the obvious anchor, and the terrace around it is made for hanging out while music plays. If you like being in the middle of the action, go poolside early and pick your spot.
If you prefer taking it slower, spend the first chunk near the terrace and use the pool when the weather and crowd feel right. Either way, the pool and terrace are connected by the overall layout, so you can swap without losing the music entirely.
Music and live performers, built into the whole afternoon
The event is described as 6 hours of non stop music and vibes during its Friday and Monday sessions (12:00 to 18:00). On other days, the duration stays 6 hours, but starting times can vary, so you’ll want to check what’s listed for your date.
In practice, that means you’re not waiting for the “main part.” DJs and MCs are running, and live acts like sax and singers add peaks. Plan to treat it like a continuous party day: you’ll get small “high moments” from the live performers, not just one big climax.
Sunset views as a bonus chapter
The event description calls out the sunset view over La Gomera from the terrace. Even if sunset isn’t the exact reason you booked, this is the kind of payoff that makes the late part of the event more satisfying. You can dance earlier, then shift into terrace mode as the light changes.
Staying until the end vs. leaving early
Because it’s 6 hours, you’re choosing between going all-in or pacing yourself. If you burn energy fast, you might want to plan breaks at the terrace. If you’re the type who likes the full arc, aim to stay long enough to catch the sunset chapter.
The infinity pool: the comfort decision that changes everything

The infinity pool is a key part of the experience. It’s not just a backdrop; it’s where you’ll likely spend the most time. That’s why your “what to bring” choices matter. You’ll want swimwear and a towel, since those are explicitly listed.
Pool time can be great, but it’s also where crowd density shows up first. If you’re someone who hates shoulder-to-shoulder spaces, you may want to arrive with a mindset of flexibility and accept that the pool area might fill up as the afternoon progresses. The upside is that the views remain there for you; even if the pool gets busy, the terrace doesn’t stop giving you ocean perspective.
Also: remember that the infinity pool experience is tied to the terrace setup, so your ability to sit comfortably affects how much you enjoy the full 6 hours. Which leads to the big ticket-value conversation.
Price and seating reality: what your $35 ticket really covers

At $35 per person, this is priced like an entry-level ticket for a premium venue, but it doesn’t automatically include premium comfort. The ticket includes access to the event only. It does not include tables or seating, and you can upgrade on arrival.
That detail is important because “access” is not the same as “you’ll have a chair.” One review highlighted that people had to pay to sit down, but that the money could be returned in vouchers for drinks. The tradeoff is still real: if sitting is your priority, plan to budget for upgrades.
The listing also mentions you can upgrade to chill out on beds on the terrace, with views and access to the crystal clear infinity pool. If you’re going for the “luxury rooftop pool party” feel, those beds are the part that turns the day from active into comfortable.
Is it good value?
For me, the value depends on your style:
- If you’re happy standing, moving, and dancing most of the time, $35 is easier to justify because you’re paying for the music, the live performers, and the setting.
- If you want a stable seat and long stretches of relaxing, the base ticket may feel like step one, not the full experience.
On drinks: one review called out high drink prices and also felt the alcohol supply wasn’t enough. I can’t confirm the alcohol amount from the data, but the drinks being extra-cost is obvious in an event like this. If you’re price-sensitive, think of this as a music-and-views event first, and treat drinks as a separate spend.
Crowd size and vibe: the part that can make or break your day

The overall rating is 3.9 across 140 reviews, which signals a mix of great moments and a few friction points. One recurring theme: the venue may feel small for some people’s taste. Another theme: the drink situation can disappoint if you expect more included value or more alcohol for the price.
What does that mean for you? Don’t plan this like a giant nightclub where you can roam freely and always find space. Plan it like a designed rooftop show environment. You’ll have a better time if you accept that the energy is communal.
One review praised it as unforgettable and gave a clear thumbs-up to the staff and performers, including DJ sax moments. That lines up with the event description listing live sax, dancers, percussion players, and singers. If you’re booking for the entertainment mix, you’re not buying a generic playlist party. You’re buying the “live show on a rooftop” idea.
Who should book Utopia at Cielo Monkey Beach Club

This experience is not for kids. It’s listed as not suitable for children under 18, so it’s designed for an adult nightlife crowd.
You’ll probably enjoy it most if:
- You want a Tenerife day that mixes pool time with club-style music
- You like live performers (saxophonist, dancers, singers) alongside DJs and MCs
- You care about sea views and a terrace setting, not just a dance floor
- You’re traveling with friends who want an organized party block (6 hours)
You might want to think twice if:
- You’re expecting a lot of included seating with zero additional spending
- You dislike tight venues or crowded pool areas
- You’re mainly there for heavy alcohol value
Before you go: what to bring and how to make entry smooth

Keep your prep simple so you can spend time enjoying the event instead of handling details.
Bring:
- Passport or ID card
- Swimwear
- Towel
Check your date, too. The event is scheduled as a Friday and Monday session from 12:00 to 18:00, and it runs 6 hours total. On other days, the 6 hours remains, but starting time can vary, so confirm what’s listed for your specific booking.
When you arrive, remember the key orientation point: check in at the private side door named Cielo at the Monkey Beach Club. That’s the fastest path into the setup.
Also, plan your outfit like you’re actually going to use the pool and move around. It’s a rooftop club setting, so comfort matters.
Should you book Costa Adeje Monkey Beach Club Utopia Pool Party?

If you want a Tenerife experience that feels like a destination day party—ocean views, infinity pool, and live entertainment layered over DJ energy—then yes, this is worth considering. The big strengths are the setting and the live show element, especially the saxophonist and the lineup of dancers, percussion players, and singers.
I’d book it when you’re okay with the reality that the base ticket is entry access only. If you care about sitting and comfort, plan for the possibility of upgrades on arrival, especially if you’re comparing this to experiences that include seating.
Skip it (or at least adjust expectations) if you’re hoping for a big, spread-out venue with lots of included drink/alcohol value. The reviews and the ticket structure point to a more pay-as-you-go comfort model once you’re inside.
Bottom line: book this if you’re after the mix of rooftop pool + live entertainment + sea views for a solid 6-hour block. It’s a specific kind of fun, and when it clicks, it’s exactly the kind of Tenerife day you’ll remember for the right reasons.
