Perhaps the sexiest bar in all of Mexico, the Area Bar and Terrace finds its home along the sleek white rooftop of Habita Mexico City - one of the city's first and still-hottest boutique design hotels. The bar overlooks the parks of Polanco and distant downtown high-rises in an all-day scene of social mingling amongst hotel guests and neighborhood elite. The lounge is lined in Brazilian teak wood decking that stretches out onto an outdoor terrace with lap pool and preening sunbathers who wear G-strings and speedos with no modesty (or body fat). At night the space comes alive as more of a bar than outdoor pool lounge with 12-ft-long fireplace fit for smooching with a saucy Latina. A magnet for Mexico's model scene, expect gorgeous Latinos in as little as possible lounging and dancing well through midnight.
Tips
Dress it up and little and don't come wearing shorts or tattered jeans.
Last Word
Snagging an invite into the VIP Suites under Area Bar is no easy task, especially since it's frequented by some of Mexico City's hottest socialites. Make sure to dress the part and remember you're no longer in the casual United States.
