Meaning
Used to wish someone an enjoyable time.
Cultural Background
It is very common to add 'mucho' (a lot) to the end to sound more enthusiastic. People often use 'Pasarlo bien' as a synonym. You will hear '¡Que lo pases bien!' just as often as '¡Que te diviertas!'. The phrase '¡Que te la pases bien!' is a very common regional variation using the 'la' as a generic object (meaning 'the time').
Add 'Mucho'
Adding 'mucho' at the end makes you sound much more like a native speaker.
Watch the 'V'
Remember that in Spanish, 'v' and 'b' sound very similar. Don't bite your lip like an English 'v'.
