A place to relax
Whilst there’s still plenty to see and do in Playa del Cable and the surrounding area, this isn’t the place if you’re looking for wild nights out. Enjoy scenic strolls by day and relax in local bars by night – this is the ultimate spot if you’re hoping to unwind.
Close to the action
Playa del Cable in itself is relatively quiet, but you get the best of both worlds being so close to the capital of Arrecife. An area brimming with culture, art and historical sights, you can be in the hustle and bustle of inner city life whenever you choose.
