Bali Pool Bars
Many tourists visiting Bali spend a large amount of their time in the swimming pool, especially during Bali’s warmer season. And one popular location in hotel swimming pools are the pool bars. It is a mazing how many hotels do not have a pool bar, so before you make a Bali hotel reservation please check to see whether it has a pool bar, especially if you are going to be spending a lot of time in the pool. Pool bars tend to server snacks, drinks and a good place to socialise and meet new people. Some pool bars even server breakfasts, lunches and dinners and have a great variety of alcohol.
If you are staying at a hotel in Bali that does not have a pool bar you can always visit one that does have a great pool bar and pay a fee for the day to use it. As long as you are eating and drinking from the pool bar most hotel managements in Bali do not mind.
Below are a few of our favourites we recommend, however if you have experienced a great pool bar in Bali let us know and we will add it to our updated list. Looking forward to hearing from you!
