SPLASH Your Summer at Splash Island!!

I know this is very late since the summer is done and it's already a rainy days. But it's not too late to post and share our Splash experienced last summer in Splash Island!

When my husband was still in Braszil going to Singapore for their last port, we talked about Splash Island since his sister would visit us here in Manila, so we decided to treat them in Splash Island and also treat it as our gift for his pamangkin's 8th birthday!

My husband has a friend there whose house is fortunately near the Splash Island so thank God, may matutulugan kami. We arrived there in the evening. After our breakfast we were all excited to go to Splash Island.

Splash Island is located in Southwoods Ecocentrum Binan, Laguna, Philippines. Splash Island is the water park's family-friendly layout is set up with 17 thrilling attractions, the fantastic wave pool called Agos Grandes, stately palm trees, a water playground, and water. The park's most popular attraction, the Rio Montanosa, is a new breathtaking mountain high river raft ride that delivers its riders the ultimate thrill. Go tubular in the Big Bam Boo, a covered tunnel slide that leads straight into pure excitement. The King Pilipit, a swirling slide that is under rising pressure until a final drop dumps you in a pool,

Lemuel and I we paid 500.00 each for entrance for all-day pass to Splash Island, and we've got discounted for our 5 companions - thanks to our friend who has discount coupons. If you're a residence there, you get 50% off. Bit it is case to case basis according to them.

This is the entrance, if you notice at the back, it says that "NO" food and drinks are allowed inside. So that so sad, because the price of their foods inside is very expensive. Yeah, promise! So if you're going there, my advice is eat a lot and drink a lot of water then don't bring any foods at baka pagsisihan mo lang. Even the 1 glass of gulaman there na 10 pesos lang outside it's 50 pesos and also 1 piece of corn it also 50 pesos. Whoa that price!!!!


From the entrance going inside the water park you will see the Souvenir shop and they have a lot of beautiful souvenirs there if you want, and also if you want to rent cottages also those available. 
Nipa Hut- 1000.00, Family Hall good for 20-50 pax - 3000.00, for 50-100 pax- 5000.00, Aircon Cabana- 1,200 + 300 key deposit, Hawaiian 1 and 2 - 5000.00 + 500 Key deposit + I.D, Tree House-5000.00 + 500 Key deposit + I.D.

So you need to be in a hurry because if you will not, baka di mo ma enjoy, because for example in the Big Bamboo slide it will open only in 1 hour after that wala na, plus ang haba haba pa ng pila. I only enjoyed the 3 Big slides there because our time na consume nalang sa pagpipila :( supper sayang!


Balsa River- One of my zd's fave, he likes it and di sya magsasawang bumalik balik dito.

Indeed that was a great, breath taking and joyful experienced. Thank you to my husband for this great experience and also to his friend. Though it's expensive, we cannot buy experience and happiness, specially to kids who really did enjoy this trip. 

Cons:
* Foods and water are not allowed inside
* No Free Wifi (You have to pay to able to connect to their Wifi inside the water park)
* Foods,water are too expensive and also their cottages and locker
* The water is itchy, I think it's because of the numbers of people there.
* Time for pila is too long and the hour of opening is short. I think 1 hour or 1 hour and half is not enough. Nakakabitin at para kang nag aamazing race - you needed to hurry para mapuntahan mo lahat ng attractions nila.

Pros:
* The place is beautiful
* Experience and bonding wise, it's perfect
* If you're a first timer like me, you will be amazed at the place
* They are very strict and they will assure your valuable things secured on their locker.

If you have plan to visit this place you may avail of their tickets online through MetroDeal they have also discount their and also you might buy their ticket on the counter inside the resort.

  1. This is the nearest resort in our place pero I haven't visited pa, hindi kasi kami mahilig sa slides. And I've heard negative comments from friends like makati ang tubig and mapanghi. :(

  2. The place is really beautiful. I think they've renovated it since then. I just don't like the fact that foods are not allowed inside. It's too difficult to buy them inside. Too expensive. =)

  7. I have only heard of this place and passed by it whenever we go somewhere south. But for some reason, the place doesn't lure me as other places does.. Though it might be a place to consider some time. :)

  8. To be honest, I've never been to Splash Island. It must be fun to bring the entire family there. -- Maria Teresa Figuerres

  9. Itchy and mapanghi, I hope they will do something about it soon. There are many resorts na to choose from and sometimes, the itchy part can be worrisome kasi you may contract diseases. But it must be fun using those tubes and we'd love to try that when they were able to improve na siguro.

  15. Naku very dissapointed experience (june 25 2017)... very bad shower room, madulas ang sahig! Also why need nila lagyan ng time ang pool amenities? So kung maraming tao naka pila lahat sa isang pool.... kaya nga whole day park.dapat open lahat ang park tsk tsk tsk.... i will not recommend this park, talo.kayo sa bayad nyo!
