This ever chic spot has a big, blazing dance floor for shaking bodies, a balcony circling above for those who want to watch, and a low-key lounge area upstairs for smoother operators. With a great sound system and fashion police at the door, Brava attracts San Juan’s rich, beautiful, and famous, as well as well-heeled travelers looking to dance. It’s expensive (the $20 cover is just the beginning) and management wants you to “dress to impress,” describing attire as “fashionably elegant.” The party gets going late, and the DJ’s mix of Latin, house, electronica, and other forms is always part of a good long groove. However, if you get started early on your night out, you’ll probably have more fun dancing at the lobby bar.
