^korek sis.
Just got back from subic, thank you so much for all the contributors especially to sis Forumera
Pay back time, here's my review.
May 17 to May 18 Itinerary:- departed home at 5 am, arrived at Ocean Adventure at 10 am.
- Ocean Adventure tour ended at 3pm
- arrived at Zoobic Safari at 3:30 pm
- zoobic safari tour ended at 5pm, arrived at Mansion Garden at 6pm.
Review of Ocean Adventure:
- super nag enjoy kids ko, especially my eldest, nag swimming encounter siya with the dolphins (two dolphins pa), for 3,700 pesos. Then my youngest enjoyed all the shows especially the Balancing Act and Sea Lion.
-
HINDI masarap ang food nila, I repeat, HINDI masarap. LOL. as in, feeling ko sayang lang ang pera namin, pricey pa naman, tapos ganun ang lasa. 2/10 ang rate ko. Dun kasi kami kumain ng early lunch, nakakapag sisi. Ilado na yung chicken BBQ eeeew
So I suggest, kung mag ocean adventure kayo, kumain muna kayo sa labas.
Review of Zoobic Safari:- nag enjoy lang ako sa tram ride LOL, pero okay na rin, my kids enjoyed it, so happy na din. We availed the white package at 645/head, it includes Lion Safari and Tiger safari.
- may kainan din sa loob, although hotdogs and juices lang kinain namin.
stayed at
Mansion Garden Hotel, review:
- paid double deluxe room for 6,300.
Likes:- new hotel, clean pa ang look niya.
- clean spacious rooms
- good location, across lang niya mga restos like meat plus etc.
- across lang din niya ang Freeport exchange duty free
- free wifi, pati sa pool area malakas ang signal, even sa inside the room, fast internet connection
- nice clean pools
- attentive pool attendant
Dislikes:
- walang slippers
- extra pillow charge is 100/pillow
- Inefficient yung staff, yung front desk hindi man lang nag offer na magbuhat ng gamit namin, as in walang tumulong sa amin mag carry ng things namin, it's like bahala kayo sa buhay ninyo
- Napaka unprofessional nung staff sa restaurant nila, come breakfast time, naka upo na kami at lahat, walang nag aassist sa amin kasi yung dalawang babaeng staff nanonood ng TV
at wala silang ginawa after kundi manood.
- Napaka lousy na nga nung breakfast buffet (kanin, itlog, adobo, bangus, pancake lang) napaka lousy pa nung mga nag se serve, wala ng laman yung buffet, nag reklamo yung isang customer, sabi ba naman nung waitress "alin po ang walang laman?" gawd
itanong ba naman sa customer, sinagot siya tuloy nung customer ng "aba ewan ko kung ano yun, wala ngang laman eh!".
- pinaka nakakairita sa akin, wala silang tigil kakapanood ng TV, kahit ang dami daming tao na dapat ina assist nila, I reported this to the supervisor, sana baguhin nila, nakaka stress.
Yan lang mga sis, maganda sana yung hotel, kaso napaka unprofessional ng mga staff nila, na sana iimprove nila yun, at kung ganun pa din sila, wala akong balak bumalik doon.
We ate at:1. Meat Plus Cafe - 6/10, weird ata kami ng family ko, hindi namin sila nagustuhan
except for their caesar salad, one of the best, pero yung steak? so so for me.
2. Aristocrat - 8/10. super sarap pala ng BBQs nila dito, first time kasi namin, hindi ko lang gusto yung calamares.
ang dami ko pang gustong i try, pagbalik na lang namin hahahaha
TIPS:- Kumain kayo sa labas bago mag ocean adventure, lousy food sila.
- magbaon ng pamalit na damit, and wear comfy clothes, sobrrrrang init mga sis, kaya naka sando lang yung bunso ko, dahil nag totopak sa init.
- Mas maganda mapag isa ninyo na lang ang OA at Zoobic, kasi magkalapit naman na sila.
