swimup bar at Allegro Playacar?

dingo44 · 02-13-2004

OK, I've read some posts on the internet that say 'swim up bar was fun' and others that say 'if only they had a swim up bar'....

So which is it? Does Allegro have a swimup bar or not?

Thanks!

Absotootly, the Allegro does indeed have a swim up bar!

Wonder what hotel those other people stayed at? :wink:

Maybe they are confusing it with the Allegro Cozumel or the Occidental Caribean Village Playacar, which Allegro owns?

The Allegro Playacar does have a swim up bar, or it did in April 2001. We spent a afternoon there. A group of us had a lot fun. The guys played volleyball in the same pool. It was a great time. We met some nice people. I hope you have a wonderful trip.

:lol: Yes, there is definately a swim up at the Occidental Allegro Playacar. I know this because I danced on it in Nov. 02! Fabulous time! Wonderful place to stay!!

now I understand the confusion....

We have friends who just returned from the Allegro.
There IS a swimup bar, however, it is not operational anymore i.e. they don't serve booze out of it.
Something to do with the new owners not liking a swimup bar so they closed it. I presume you can still wade over to it with drinks and sit on the submerged seats, but it is my understanding it is 'closed'.

:o

That's the dumbest thing I ever heard! :-?

Do you know when they got new owners?

dingo44 · 04-11-2004

back and forth....

well, we just got back from Allegro and yes, indeed, they DO have a swimup bar. At times it doesn't look like anyone is working there, but if you just wait a minute, someone will come over from the other side of the bar. It is a double-sided bar.

I have no idea how our friends missed the swimup bar...they were there for 2 weeks and almost never left the resort! Guess the drinks were stronger than they thought!

Sorry for the confusion....again

Dingo44 you are right.
I went to the Allegro on April 10 2004 and IT DOES have a swimup bar. The confusion I think has been created by people who didn't noticed there is TWO pools at the Allegro Playacar!!! The first pool is a "relax pool" and does not have a bar. Where the other pool ( the activities pool ) does have one double-sided bar .

Ok....... so if the first pool (non-swimup bar) is the "relax pool", what do you call the swimup bar pool? The "tense pool"??? Cuz that's where everyone gets STIFF???

(wish they had a smilie hitting a cymbal.....)

and while I'm at it, what's the

symbol for ??? (am I naive or what??)
