Subic [Thread 4]

[little_princess]

bayview i think is different from bayfront. we stayed in bayfront which is located along moonbay marina.

the rooms were small and the beds are small. a room is 2750 good for a maximum of 4 people, a room with balcony is 3150. extra mattress is 300. what sucks is that if you request for extra pillows or towels, there is a 50php charge per piece.

hi mga sis!

new to the thread, tanong po... we are planning to visit subic this weekend or the next depende sa weather, my 2 y/o son will be coming with us. Okey ba sa kids of his age yung treetop? Surely he can enjoy the ocean adventure and the zoobic pero I'm hesitant kasi sa treetop baka wala naman pwede sa kanya dun... 

And pwede bang 1 day lang tong tatlo or at least a day and a half dapat?

TIA!

[bettyboop1322]

^ sis, mukha di pa pwede ang 2 yr. old mo sa treetop, hindi advisable. if ocean adventure & zoobic safari lang ang itinerary nyo ok na siguro maghapon pero dapat maaga pa lang nandito na kayo sa Subic. And if this weekend kayo pupunta baka di kayo masyadong mageenjoy kasi maulan pa dito lalo na kung magwhwhale/dolphin encounter kayo.

[examiner30]

^ ay ganun ba... Maybe next time na lang ang treetop... Actually Naassign ako sa field dito sa San Narciso covering 2 weekends. As of this time of writing maaraw nga siya pero the past 2 days na andito ako ulan ng ulan. Maybe next week na lang kami punta diyan. hubby and son will be coming from Manila pa but I think we can work out for an early start of adventure.

Another question po, undecided pa kasi to bring a car kasi I don't intend to bring yaya para family trip lang talaga sana. How can we make our way to both destinations pag commute? possible ba na taxi na lang lagi? hehe

Thanks a lot sis! 

[bettyboop1322]

Yes sis! It's very possible. You can go to Ocean Adventure by taxi (quite expensive though) or you may ride their free shuttle/bus if you're not time constraint. But it will be very convenient if you can bring your own car.

Hi there mga sis. I just wanna ask since I'm planning to book a hotel in Clark perimeter,Angeles kung malapit lang ba sya sa mga Subic activities like diving, treetop adventure and safari?or mas recommended na lang mag-book sa mga dive resorts.Need your help especially sa mga taga-apo since I'm totally clueless about Subic.Also madali lang ba ang public transport going around?Thanks!

[potatocorner]

^hi sis! Clark is 45 minutes to 1 hour away from Subic where the activities you mentioned are. If you will rely on public transpo, mahirap if sa Clark ka pa magstay. Sa subic ka nalang magstay sis, may mahahanap ka naman na according sa budget mo eh read this thread and the thread before this (kung available pa online) kasi madaming sis nagsuggest ng mga accomodations for different budgets

[^Vain_Chiq^]

^Thank you for the advice sis potatocorner. I'd better check Subic hotels na lang para convenient din samin.

2. ) I am also considering The Cliff.. any feedback to those who stayed here.. Or suggestions for affordable place to stay na pang family..

[gelei]

whew just got home from Subic...

^ sis di namin masyado na-enjoy ang ocean adventure kasi saturday morning maulan. mahirap lalo may 2 kids  plus marami ang nakasabay naming nag-to-tour na mga schools. So medyo matao, masikip halos unahan sa seats hehe. at medyo magulo. at may isang show na di pwede subject to cancellation depending on the weather (olongapo jones). Pero siguro if it wasn't raining and di ganun kadami ang kasabay baka okey naman. Ang Itenerary kasi namin was diretso sa Ocean Adventure first so we arrived around 8am, we wait for the opening. It opens at 9am. natapos kami mga 1130am.

---then we went to The Cliff.. dun kami nag stay for overnight. Napansin ko lang parang napakalayo nya from the Ocean Adventure and Zoobic Safari. Pero from The Cliff back to Zoobic Safari kinabukasan ng Sunday parang medyo mabilis ang byahe. Ewan ko lang kay hub kong may iba na ba syang dinaanan. hehe. With regards to the place naman I don't 'know but I am not happy with it. I won't go back there next time around. Maganda sana yung place pero di naalagaan. Sa CR, bedsheets, lights..malamok ...and the lists goes on. It needs many improvements. Gusto ko na sana maghanap na lang ng ibang hotel/villas kung di lang ako nagpa-reserve. Lesson learned.. kung di mo pa alam ang place/hotel better not reserve it yet para makapag-ocular muna. Don't rely on websites/pictures. (personal opinion only). But the place is promising sana. It has a pool and beach.

Sunday (11am) naman kami umalis from the cliff to Zoobic Safari.. The kids enjoyed here and I like it here kasi systematic sila batch by batch may assigned tour guide. plus educational medyo lapit lang sa tour guide so you'll hear what he/she is saying. Enjoy kami dito. sis mitchie 247 my 3 yr old kid enjoyed it. di naman nakakatakot ang tigers kasi nasa loob naman ng sasakyan while on a safari ride. Nakaka-excite nga pag lumalapit sila lalo na pag mag-fe-feed ng chicken. Pero may kasama na staff yata pag magpapakain. I also bring with us  my 1 yr old kid at di rin sya natakot.


Another reminder sis.. naku kahit na nabasa ko na dito about sa traffic system/ rules (they follow US traffic rules) .. Nawala sa isip ni hub one time while on the way to Z. Safari di sya nakapag-stop sa isang stop sign (kelangan talaga mag complete stop kahit na walang ibang sasakyan).. Naibilin ko na ito at na-remind ko pero kasi di nya napansin ang sign sa baba. plus I wasn't wearing my seatbelt pa hehe (nakalimutan ko ibalik) after I take out food from a fast-food chain. eh kahit dito sa manila I was always abiding such rules pero ewan ko ba pagkakataon nga naman. Ayun sis hehe. Buti na lang naareglo din pangit kasi magka-record

enjoy na lang sis ha..

Hi mga sis its been 4 yrs since i was in Subic.. Ask ko sana if you know inns/apartelle in subic kahit sa labas na ng SBMA kasi tutulugan lang namin one night lang talaga that cost mga nasa less 1k per room and allows 6 persons to stay there kahit add nalang kami ng bed (kahit me additional per bed or per person).
