Editorial Review for Marina Bay Beach Club – by Citysearch Editors
This outdoor club on the edge of Marina Bay offers a gorgeous view of the Boston skyline. The 60,000-square-foot space feels like a tropical paradise on warm summer nights (it features the only palm tree grove in New England). Imported palm trees and beach sand create a volleyball court in the center of the action. Surrounding the court are tents, one featuring a bar and another with billiards. The dress code is primarily shorts and T-shirts. A large stage hosts cover bands, with an expansive dance floor resembling a parking lot; its hugeness allows it to seldom feel crowded. The club serves traditional barbecue favorites, along with luau cuisine such as smoked pig. There's also a 140-seat oyster bar that serves seafood and pasta. On a fun night, it can feel like a Jimmy Buffet concert with better food and more room to dance.

This place is totally overrated. Tacky, cheesy, and overpriced. The pool tables didn't put out all the poolballs, the cigarette machines were "tempermental", and at $7 (or was it $9?) it ate my money. Then, when I finally got the OTHER machine to work, the bar doesn't have any matches and they don't sell lighters. What a waste! Drinks were watered down. Can I please have a LITTLE alcohol in my mixed drink? I'm all set with paying $8 for a diet coke. Beers run $5 or $7 for a cheap budweiser bottle. I can't remember the exact price, all I know is that I came home with an empty wallet. We got there at 7:30 to avoid the ridiculous $20 cover only to find out that there was, in fact, a $20 cover at any time according to "manager's discretion"... The door staff was really rude and we felt cheated once we got in to see that there was NO ONE there at that time. People were fighting outside and cars were getting towed left and right in the parking lot. I was concerned about the safety of the general area due to the rowdiness outside. The bartenders were rude, too. No napkins at the bar, no class at all. Oh, and the bathrooms were out of toilet paper at one point. What a waste of time and money. We will not be going back there next year or EVER. This place is NOT the place to be on a Sunday.
Pros: I can't think of any. Maybe the fact that it's closed for the rest of the year?
Cons: Service, Price, Crowd, and Rude Doorstaff

i was there july 3rd which was a tuesday. apparently no one knew it was open, because its not normally open on tuesdays, so the crowd wasn't that large, but i went with a group of people and we had a great time. i didn't care for the outrageously priced drinks, but the music they played made up for it. good time!
