Hi there 

My name is Darren

 I have bought a villa and will be moving to playa Blanca within the next 2 years but till then will be spending all the time allowed on the island 

I was wondering if there is a golf society I could join and other clubs so my wife and I can get to know people and make new friends

Hi Darren,

My wife and I bought a Villa in Playa Blanca in December and will be using it as a holiday home until eventually in a few years moving there fully.

Our plan is come to come every six weeks but at the moment due to Covid travel restrictions I have been coming on my own. I/we will next be there in February and then around Easter time.

This is our first time buying a property abroad so can be a bit daunting and I am sure we can swap info as and when and also happy to meet up or just talk on email. Unfortunately we are not golfers.

Our property is on Bourganvillas just north of PB town centre. Where are you based?

Cheers,

Andrew

Hi Andrew 

We are basically gonna be doing the same till move out there in just over 2 years so will be spending up 4 weeks a time but over many visits.

No problem about the golf as looking to meet friends even just for walks and lunch meets that sort of thing 

Yeah will look forward to meeting up at some point this year as I am out there to sign for 

property in late feb and back out there for few weeks during Easter time in April

April sounds promising then Darren and I will be in touch nearer the time. Like you apart from tradesmen we do not know any British people and would like to make some British friends.

All the best,

Andrew

Yeah if golf is going bad then always the 19th hole lol

Yeah Alan makes sense to meet up and help each other if and where needed with pointers to help make all our moves easier and also brits stick together so nice to make new friends as big step for all of us 

We will be based in playa del Papagayo 15min walk from Marina Rubicon but will be driving out there anyway so get about easier

Hi Andrew,


just seen you are literally 5 mins from where we are. Ours is the community directly in front of yours so we will be practically neighbours 😁 If you go Google earth and find yours, ours is just to the right of villa chao. It has the kidney shaped pool and you can see 4 sunbeds round the pool

Thanks Darren, yes I know exactly where you are, right near us. We would be very happy to meet yourselves as well as Alan when we are all about.
