Our founder’s story

What started as a simple idea turned into something much bigger than I ever imagined. I didn’t set out to build a national hospitality brand. I was just someone who loved bringing people together, creating energy in a room, and making celebrations feel effortless for the host. I noticed that so many private parties had the same problem: the planner was stressed, the vibe fell flat, and no one was truly in charge of keeping the momentum going. I believed there had to be a better way.

So I created it. The first parties were small, scrappy, and hands-on. I was booking events, showing up in person, learning what worked, and refining the experience in real time. Over time, one party turned into ten, ten turned into hundreds, and eventually Cabana Boys grew into multiple brands—each with its own personality, but all built on the same foundation of professionalism, charisma, and high-energy hospitality.

Stepping into the Tank was surreal, but it was also validating. Every late night, every lesson learned on the job, every party that taught us how to be better—it all led to that moment. Striking a deal on national television wasn’t the finish line. It was confirmation that this idea, this category, and this team were just getting started.
Today, we exist to make hosting effortless, parties unforgettable, and celebrations feel iconic. And whether you’re booking us for a once-in-a-lifetime bachelorette weekend or a spontaneous girls’ trip, you’re getting the same energy and intention that started it all—one great party at a time.

— Nelson Brooks, Founder and Chief Cabana Boy

FAQ's

  • What is Cabana Boys?

    Cabana Boys is the umbrella name for Cabana Boys, Cocktail CowBoys, and Cocktail Boys. These three provide party hosting and bartending services in 10 (and counting) cities across the country.

  • Wait... what does party hosting mean?

    Our Boys are at your service—we’ll serve you drinks and refreshments, BBQ, take pictures (or pose with you), be Spotify DJs, help with party/drinking games, keep the party area tidy, keep you company (or stay out of the way, that’s up to you), and take out the trash when we leave. Our goal is to serve, pamper, and tastefully entertain.

  • Do we need a pool?

    No pool? No problem! Our Boys come prepared to party on dry land too.

  • Where are you located?

    Cabana Boys is in Scottsdale, AZ, Palm Springs, CA, Los Angeles and Orange County, CA, San Diego, CA, Miami and Fort Lauderdale, FL, and 30A/Destin, FL. Cocktail CowBoys is in Austin, TX and Nashville, TN. Cocktail Boys is in Charleston, SC and Savannah, GA.

  • Who are these "Boys" you speak of?

    Our Boys are hand-picked, upstanding gentlemen who have been selected for their good looks, charm, hospitality, and ability to make your day special. They are all thoroughly vetted, licensed, background checked, and insured.

  • What's the difference between Cabana Boys, Cocktail CowBoys, and Cocktail Boys?

    Honestly, not much. The biggest difference is what the Boys wear. In some cities we have specialized experiences (like line dancing in Nashville), but all of our Boys are high-energy, fun, and provide exceptional service.

  • What will they wear?

    Our Cabana Boys will arrive in classic cabana attire – sharp white polo and swim trunks. Our CowBoys will arrive in classic CowBoy attire – plaid shirt, boots, hat, bandana, belt buckle, Wranglers, or some combination thereof. And our Cocktail Boys will arrive in a pink polo and khaki or white shorts. At the beach in Savannah, we’ll sport a white tank top and colorful swim trunks. If you have a special request for our outfit, we’ll do our best to accommodate and may ask that you purchase the requested garments.

  • Can I request a specific Boy?

    You sure can! But, because our Boys are in high demand, fulfillment is dependent on availability. We’ll do our best to accommodate, but don’t worry, all of our Boys provide top-notch service. You will find out who your Boys are when they arrive to your party.

  • What do the Boys bring?

    The Boys will arrive with a cocktail shaker, tons of fun ideas for your group, and depending on the service and city, other supplies. We don’t provide any alcohol or other party supplies, nor will we be able to pick up anything on the way or during your party.

  • What do I need to provide?

    We recommend having ample drinks, mixers, other refreshments, solo cups, and tons of ice on hand, as we provide the service only. If there are any specific games or activities you’d like to play or do that require physical supplies, have those ready to roll too.

  • Are there any special services he can provide?

    Let your imagination run wild! The primary reason our Boys are there is to make your special day stress-free. If that means that the bachelorette/birthday girl should never have an empty glass, so be it. Or maybe she doesn’t want to walk; we can offer to piggyback rides. If you’re unsure, just ask! Our Boys will do anything they’re comfortable with, so they may turn down certain activities.

  • What about "special" services?

    Nope, sorry! We are not an adult entertainment service and don’t intend to be. Our Boys have been instructed to keep their bottoms on and refrain from dancing suggestively.

  • I'm hosting a girls weekend. Is that an okay event for your services?

    Absolutely! We've helped people party for every occasion: bachelorettes, girls weekends, birthdays, bachelor parties, divorce parties, themed events, corporate outings, book clubs, dinner parties, and more!

  • I love your service, but don't have a specific occasion or date in mind. What should I do?

    Hey, thanks! In this case, we suggest buying a gift card. These can be redeemed for any of our services, but just make sure you purchase it for the right location. Gift cards make a great gift too.

  • Can we book longer than 2 hours?

    Yes! 2 hours is our most popular booking duration, but we constantly are told that it goes by too quickly. We also offer 3- and 4-hour parties. If you book a certain duration but are having a blast and want to extend the party, talk to your Boys. Extensions are paid to our company PayPal or Venmo account.

  • Sounds amazing! How much is it?

    Pricing is dependent on location. Please check the location pages for more details. We accept full payment up front.

  • What if I change my mind and need to cancel?

    We understand that plans change, so we do have a cancellation policy in place. If you need to change the day/time of your booking, contact our team. If you want to cancel completely, customers will receive a full, 100% refund with at least 30 days advance notice ahead of the event. If you cancel with at least 10 days notice before the party, we’ll refund 50%. All parties are non-refundable with 10 days or less notice. We are unable to accommodate refunds for cancelled trips, flights, or illness. If you change your mind after booking your event and would like to cancel, we have a grace period that allows for a full refund if cancelled within 24 hours (except in the case of a last-minute booking, which is booked with fewer than 7 days notice). We also have a 5% rescheduling fee (based on your booking total) that is incurred if changes to the time of your booking are made within 5 days of your event.

  • Does the price include tip?

    Tips are greatly appreciated! Our pricing does not include tip, so you can add gratuity at time of booking and/or tip day-of with cash or Venmo.

  • You don't have the day/time I want, what should I do?

    Due to high demand, we may not be able to accommodate everyone. But, we do regularly have time slots open up as we get closer to the party date. Add yourself to the waitlist on the day/time you want, and we will reach out if and when availability opens up. We appreciate your patience!

  • Can we hire just one Boy?

    A couple of our services include just one Boy, but the rest always includes two for the optimal party experience. We strongly recommend a third Boy for groups of 15 or more. For groups of 20 or more, we require a third Boy. We will contact you to confirm availability and arrange payment.

  • What if it's raining?

    Our Boys know how to party rain or shine! If the weather is bad enough where it is dangerous to drive or go outside, we may cancel your party and issue a refund. This is solely determined at the company's discretion. Otherwise, your Boys will be there!

  • Do I need to be staying in a house to use your services?

    In most cases, yes. We do not operate in hotels or community areas. But, we do offer some services that are catered to those staying in a hotel or similar space. For example, we have a bar crawl in Nashville and party bus in Scottsdale. If you're in doubt, don't hesitate to reach out and we'll confirm whether we can help you celebrate.

  • Can we party with the Boys on a party bus or boat?

    Definitely! Since our Boys are the ultimate hype men, a party bus and boat is a great place to have them. In Scottsdale, we have our own Party Bus experience! In other cities, we partner with party bus/boat companies. Contact us and we'll work out the details.

  • Can we party with the Boys on the beach?

    You sure can! Our Boys can throw a great beach party. We don’t provide any rental services for umbrellas, coolers, etc, but we can set them up and move them around for you. Just be sure to select the Beach option when booking your party. Available in Savannah and Tybee Island only.

  • What is your COVID policy?

    You can request for our Boys to wear masks if you’d like to. You can also request vaccinated Boys, but unfortunately we cannot guarantee this.

  • Are you LGBTQ+ friendly?

    Absolutely. We welcome gay bachelor parties, lesbian bachelorette parties, and everything in between. Give us a heads up when booking so we can staff your party for the optimal experience.

  • Do you offer a "girls" version of this?

    We absolutely do! Check out Cabana Girls in Scottsdale. Our lovely ladies are great for bachelor parties, golf trips, and more. You can also add on Cabana Girls to your Cabana Boys party! Visit cabana-girls.com to learn more

  • We're looking for a more traditional bartending service. Is there someone you'd recommend?

    We’re not everyone’s cup of tea, and that’s okay! For traditional bartending, we recommend The Cocktail Crew (cocktail-crew.com)
