Manila Ocean Park Reviews

It was an amazing experience especially viewing those beautiful creatures in the oceanarium.. enjoyed much hope to be back...

Extra big extra nice variety of activities ... Everytime you come back guaranteed enjoyment

Small little place... Seems to have more insects than fish...

Loved it, just be aware of the show times before buying a ticket or planning your trip

beautiful. nice place to stay with, every penny worth

This is my second visit. I just love the oceanarium that's all, the rest I can probably skip. They haven't changed anything with the symphony show in from 2016 it's a bit boring. The animal in the sea lion show seems like he (because he is a male and his name is Vincent) has a lot of wound

Not so satisfy with our visit .. We celebrated my Son's birthday ..

why 3 ? for the place yes its nice clean and graceful .. But the staff are not so friendly and accomodating ..

I suggest that they should be
more friendly, especially to those younger guest .. They should expect that kids are literal na makulit so dapat trained sila na maging mas mapag pasensya and approachable ..

At dapat lagi nilang i'expect na yung mga guest nila is first timers (majority) ..

Couple of nice attractions, but otherwise quite run down.

Management shoud focus with removation for most of facilities look old.
Most of the aquarium has no fish label

Beware dont eat at the surfburger kiosk, the food is terrible and gave me food poisoning

Perfect for family hangouts and kids and kids at heart

I would rate it higher but after experiencing the Tennessee Aquarium it just doesn't compare. It is defiantly tailored for kids not adults.

Very beautiful and very well treated staff and sophisticated coordination in the garden sections more than wonderful

It was so unlucky of me to arrive there late afternoon around 7 pm when all the attractions already start and finished, but I still have my time to visit aquaria / aquarium but again not as my expectations like something similar I visited in KLCC, this aquarium is smaller and less collections of fishes
The good thing it s my first time to see the penguin so little bit exciting:)
They have Christmas house with Christmas ornaments inside and very instable
Well i can say it s good experience there although I missed some attraction they have in Manila ocean park

One of the best places to visit in Manila. Had great time at the Seals show

weak wifi in their hotel room for a expensive room rate per night.

Second time to visit and attractions are the same, no improvements. Jellyfish attraction got smaller. Trail to Antarctica only features a number of penguins who looked like they are longing for freedom and looked like they were trapped (because they were). I wish they improve the facilities and the attractions.

BUY TICKETS ONLINE BEFORE YOU ARRIVE!!!

Awesome 5-star star place, totally worth the trip down.

I'm subtracting 1 star because the cash ticket line was long and ridiculously slow. There were 2 cashiers working and maybe twenty-five people ahead of us, but it took around a half hour to get to the front and pay.

If you come on a day trip from the provinces, and you only have a few hours to visit before you must beat the Manila traffic out of the city, there is an option. You can and should book a package online at the Ocean Park website with a credit card. I did not know this, and the redemption line for e-tickets moved much faster.

The cash line wait wasn't a big deal in thr end since we got the basic package and it only took 2 hours to see everything we paid for, but it was a stressful start to the experience. It may be a big deal if you want to see more of Ocean Park before leaving the city (by the way, the experience goes by fast, so it is worth it to pay a few hundred more pesos for a more hooked up package), so remember there is an online prepayment option.

The whole area was amazing. The sea creatures are totally awesome. Hope they will always do a nice promos so more visitors will come. I really appreciate the area.

Ocean park is a good place to do somthing new and see new fish verity....nice place you will really enjoy.....

A very large aquarium, maybe a day is enough for you to do all the activities. Very nice and full of beautiful activities to do! The final show with the fireworks left us breathless.

Even though they were a bit cheap when it comes to ventilation and the place needs a bit of TLC...staff though we're nice and a few of the features were OK...

Best educational trip and at the same time bonding with the kids. The Park is a crowded make sure to always keep an eye on your kids. If you will avail the Ocean Supreme Bundle make sure you go early as you to watch all the attractions. Also dont forget to check the weather to make sure you enjoy all the attraction. The packages are expensive. Watch out for the promo's online.

This is a great place to have a quality time with your kids, family and friends. You will surely enjoy the places that you might go there. Different attractions that every single second must not be miss, because it might be your loss if ever. You can even take your creative photographs on the place and share it to the world. You will not only enjoy but you will learn a lot about different oceanic creatures since there's a lot of information or stories that was told while you where on the place. You can also feed the animals that you want to see near to you. It was a very fantastic experience to be here.

My kids really love the place. so many to visits and their most favorite part is the sea lion show :)

Ocean Park is an excellent experience when in the Philippines! The extensive exhibits and seal show is not to be missed. I can't wait to go back next time I am in PH. This is a must if you have little ones and need to occupy some time ;-)

Happy Travels!

Some of the attractions were really nice but crowd control needs to be improved not just for a better overall experience but for safety also. People were cutting in line and in the oceanarium people were sitting infront of the aquariums especially inside the tunnel, blocking the view of the other visitors. I suggest let visitors in at batches of 150 people at a time for example so that its not too crowded inside.

Me and my family enjoyed our visit at the ocean park. i really love the sea lion show.

Best hotel in Manila to enjoy and relax with family

Offers wide variety of animals but some are not healthy. Sad and it breaks my heart that they are not being well taken care of.

It was very hot and humid.the oceananium doest have an aircon anymore...

so love the jelly fish part and the sea lions show over all it was good the place looks kinda small

A must see the ocean park is amazing everyone has to see the ocean park

We can play with families in peace. Good for couples. The price is divided into 4 types and you can choose according to the arrival time. There is no smoking area in the park. There are many restaurants and souvenir shops. There are many places where the air conditioner is working indoors. Sea lion? When watching the show, if you don't sit down early, the shaded area will be full. We come to sell parasols, but when the show starts, parasols are said to be prohibited, so be careful when purchasing.

It lacks interaction with the guest and some spots are very hot

My wife and I thoroughly enjoyed our experiences. From the bird show, to the sea lion's captivating performance.

Wort it really is that we're going here. Puiding couple, friends and especially in the family im sure they will be happy so much if you treat them to go there and you will all go home satisfied and happy

The place is good. There are alot of attractions not just fishes and sea creatures but there are more exhibitions in the park. There are alot of food stalls where you can buy, food. Its a nice place to bring your children and family. The kids will definitely enjoy it. I think one thing that bums me out is that some aquariums do not have that much information about or make the information signs attractive for us to see what it is all about.

You'll gonna need a whole day to visit all the attractions.
If you're availing the 10++ attraction, better keep in mind the time, as some of it are available 1-3 times. Like the Dancing Seal show.
There are food carts inside the park, selling food cheaply if you're on a budget.
And yes, avoid the weekends as much as possible.

I love Manila Ocean Park is the first world-class marine theme park in the Philippines

Ok to pass a day on in manila but would need to be prepared for the animals

Been here last August,we availed the bday promos and we had great time here.

Expensive place. Just a fish aquarium. Entrance prices very high. Not a good place to spending a time. I don't recommend to no body.

I know the animals are treated nicely here but i can see they are restless. The baby sharks keeps frantically swimming in circle, The seal named vince has bald spots( i believe it's not due to molting ) among others.

And the thing that pisses me the most is the people who visits that don't follow the rules. There are signs that says "NO FLASH PHOTOGRAPHY " and "DO NOT TAP THE GLASS" . It's tolerable if a child does that, but it's the adult. (Stupid people,tsk.)

Very beautiful for families and wonderful events I would recommend going to it

Enjoyed everything. Although it was humid. But every attraction is a must see.

I expected Manila Ocean Park is as interesting as Sea World Jakarta or Jakarta Aquarium (both are amazing), but it wasn't. Not really worth visit, even if you're with kids.
