Pool tables in Playa Blanca

Post by ClaretOfMancunia » Tue Jul 01, 2025 1:38 pm

Sorry for the off-topic post but this place seems to be a font of knowledge when it comes to such things. My friend is a pool-fiend and heading to Playa Blanca on his holidays next week. He wanted to know if there were any decent pool tables around the locality. I only knew of one near Popeyes and it was pretty poor. Anyone here know of any?

Many thanks in advance Clarets.

Bills Sports Bar at Faro Park has the best I've seen in PB. Bikers Beach Bar on the Promenade at the Papagayo Centre has had one in the past but not been in for a while.

I can recommend some lovely running routes…but not a clue about pool tables. Fascinating place. The abandoned roads, building developments, parking areas, on the periphery of the resort, make you feel like you’re very alone. All ready but then then everything just stopped.

I'd actually love that. I'm currently training for a half marathon so any 5K, 10K or 15K routes you could recommend would be much appreciated as I'll be visiting there myself some time in the future. Many thanks.
