Beautiful polynesian-themed park in Sunnyvale. A great place to bring your friends for a picnic under the trees andfor casual sports on the large open field. The seasonal water feature with ducks is a gem, as well as the palm trees hosting the famous Las Palmas parrots. The childrens' playgrounds areanother gem. The large open field is always abuzz with spontaneous casual sports including frisbee, soccer, volleyball, cricket, kite flying, and badmitton to name a few. Join the community in a fun open play space. A coupld of improvements needed: - Restrooms need updating and expansion. - Childrens' play areas and water features are much in need of an update. read more

Las Palmas Park - Multi-use field with softball, soccer, volleyball - Parks Near Me - Sunnyvale, California

We love this park. So great for all ages. We come here for soccer. We can't wait for the renovation

I've always love this park since 2020. It's beautiful and spacious and has different amenities. They have two play structures, one for small kids and one for big kids. They have this big lagoon that has water during the spring and summer seasons. They have various courts on the other side, including pickleball. They have a big field for soccer and baseball. They also have a long trail path that goes around the park, not to mention Pokemon stops here and there. They have four major picnic tables for reservations too. Hosted a kids party here and it was perfect. Everyone had fun. read more

Las Palmas Park - Las Palmas Park - Parks Near Me - Sunnyvale, California

This is a great park, as others have noted. My friend and I visited here last month to walk and catch up, and it was perfect. There is enough variety around the park to keep it interesting, and we both appreciated how much everyone around us was enjoying doing their thing (there are tennis courts and a basketball court I believe plus volleyball nets set up on the lawn area). We will be back this summer for a picnic! read more

Very nice park and very good for toddlers and babies to explore and enjoy took my son there for the first time and fell in love always take him there when I have time my new favorite go to park as a family of 3 read more

What a great neighborhood park. I came here looking for the dog park. But decided to walk around the park. This park has some of the greenest grass around. There is also some unusual statues around the pond. A nice paved walkway. There's a fairly large parking lot and we were able to find a spot. Definitely coming back to walk my dogs read more

I used to come to Las Palmas Park to play with my nieces when I lived in Sunnyvale back in the 90's. I don't recall the Easter Island statues were installed. I remember Las Palmas Park gave me plenty of memories, like my former coworker got married at the park and had a reception at the community center. My parents brought me to attend holiday parties. I brought my dog GoGo 狗狗 to play after school. I still don't know why it's called Las Palmas. I don't see palm trees. read more

With the weather getting warmer but the pool not quite ready yet i decided to take my twins to new to them parks this week. Today we went to Las Palmas Park in Sunnyvale, the twins first impression was it looked like Hawaii! There is no water in the pond or flowing to the water structure. Im not sure if this is a permanent thing or just hasn't been filled up for summer yet. It was no big deal as the kids loved running around the empty pond. This park is beautiful, clean and the grass is green amd goes forever. There are two play areas one for the little guys is fully fenced in, we played there for a while and we were the only people there. Bonus is this one ( at least while we were there) was completely shaded! It also has an adjacent sand area for littles to play in. There is a larger sand area next to the "big kids" playground... also shaded. The larger playground is amazing too! Very clean and well maintained, if you have small kids might be better to avoid as the only way up to the big slides is a ladder, climbing wall or hanging ladder. For my boys they were able to scale it with no issues. They also have swings. The park has an abundance of picnic tables and a few BBQs. There is a baseball field and a HUGE grass area. The park wasn't crowded and the people that were there were very friendly. As we were leaving my boys asked if we could come back and wanted to add this park to our list of favorite parks. I would be curious to know if the water will work this summer or if they ever fill up the pond. All in all definitely 5 stars and we will be back! read more

Can't hate on Las Palmas park . Been going here since I was a little girl . Used to live right across the street . The park is clean and has everything you need for a fun day out at the park. Kid friendly with multiple playgrounds and dog friendly with a small and large dog park. read more

What a great park to check out if you're in the area. I was looking for tennis courts and I found a lot of them here! They do belong to the club so you need to register in order to pay and reserve them. Saw a lot of people taking lessons and playing pickle ball which seemed fun. Will definitely be back to play! Parking is a bit weird so plan a few extra minutes as there are different places to park depending on where in the park you want to be. read more

One of my favorite park discoveries in recent times. It's pretty big, there are several tennis courts and a big lawn and play structures. There are 3 things that made the trip stand out from the ordinary. a) They have replicas of the Easter Island Moai which was totally random and awesome. b) There are so many parakeets at this park! They were so loud and I could have spent a long time just observing them. I had no idea that Sunnyvale was a bird sanctuary. c) Finally and the best part...it is raining lightly when I was there and I saw a lot of people looking up at the sky. When I looked up, I saw the most amazing rainbow and I got a wonderful shot of it. read more

This tiki themed park was great for enjoying a picnic on a beautiful Monday afternoon, with a good amount of tables and seating and plenty of shaded area. They have 16 tennis courts, but what's even more awesome, my bf and I were able to take advantage of the rarer pickleball courts, which can be reserved for a small fee through Lifetime Activities' online website. The pond is all dried up and nonexistent, but numerous tall and gorgeous palm trees reach for the sky, retaining the park's unique beauty (and I floated the idea of how the former pond area could be used for skating... maybe next time!?!). A couple playgrounds are situated at the center of the park in a good-sized sandbox setting. There's also a baseball field, a large dog park, a grassy meadow, and tons of greenery all around. Beautiful, clean, and well-maintained park, with a restroom and multiple parking lots for convenience... not much more I could ask for. read more

9:20am, just finished watching Andrew Cuomo's daily TV address. Wife and I get our morning's exercise walking 40 minutes through the beautiful tree lined neighborhoods of south central Sunnyvale, right in the center of silicon valley. We walk one block from our house in a residential neighborhood, through a pedestrian corridor to reach Las Palmas park, 18+ acres the second largest park in the city. The houses on both sides of the pedestrian corridor were built in 1995 replacing the cherry orchards. Houses on other sides of the park were built in 1966, when chip and mainframe computer industries were developing. Huge open area of freshly cut grassy fields, intersected by pedestrian sidewalks, surrounded on three sides by residential homes, and on the 4th side by Sunnyvale Tennis Center's 16 lighted pay to play tennis courts. Signs at the entrances to the park: "Physical distancing required. Maintain a distance of 6 feet apart. Do not congregate in groups. Parks for passive use only. No team sports or pickup games. Stay home if you don't feel well". The kids playground is closed, the dog park is closed, the baseball field closed, and the tennis courts are closed, all since the March 17 announcement by Santa Clara county to shelter in place. Some people sitting at the picnic tables under the trees, while others walk their dogs. No picnicking in groups. Got to watch your step on the grass when going around people, to maintain the 6 feet social distance , as some dog owners don't pick up after their pets. Lots of people like myself running or jogging on the mile in circumference streets and concrete pathways surrounding the park. Public bathrooms closed, forcing the homeless to go elsewhere. No RVs nor campers allowed to park overnight in the parking lots, nor on the streets surrounding the park. We are so close to the park that on garbage collection day, people dump their trash from picnics in the park into our bins, when the park bins are overflowing. They put their plastics in my recycling bins, not knowing that only plastic bottles are recyclable, not plastic packaging. Guess who has to tip the bin over and dig down to pick out the plastic packaging? And with some cop car coming around the corner thinking I'm stealing. Waiting until today to do a review of the place. City Park & Recreation open for lawn mowing, but not barbers. Only recently has the grass been cut. Apparently cutting the lawns more essential than cutting my hair. read more

Wow what a beautiful park! this might be one of my favorite top 3 parks. So many green / grass area for picnicking or just for kids to run around. There are two play structures here. from yelp pictures, it looked like there used to be water but now it's all drained out and i actually like this more. I don't have to worry balls or children falling into the water. with the drained up area, kids can bike or scooter around -- please keep it this way, don't fill it up with water again (probably less mosquitos too). Parking lot is really small but there are plenty of street parking! there are also tennis courts and baseball field here. I've even seen people bringing their own volleyball net to set up on the grass. I highly recommend this park!! read more

This is is legitimately a five star park. There's a giant play structure, palm trees, a man made lake, tons of open space, and parrots! It's basically Hawaii at this point. There's a parking lot and if it's full, there is also street parking. Plus restrooms!! Tennis courts, dog park. What more could you want? If you want to visit a sweet park, this is a great one. 5 stars just for the tiki statues! This is as close as I am getting to a Hawaii trip for a good while. read more

Nice park with big grassy fields , trees , pond, fountains and big playgrounds for toddlers and older kids . Sand pit is near the pond that has clean water so the kids get the beach experience without going to the beach ! Parking was adequate but I can see it getting busy on weekends . Lots of cute dogs and a dog park too ! read more

Every time we are in the Bay Area the Mrs. tries to find new parks for Ian's entertainment. So, during this most recent trip we checked out this park. Put in the location of this park in your GPS, park either at the one beside the dog park or near the tennis courts and have a blast. There is plenty of parking on the streets as well. There is a toddler park, a young kids park, a dog park, adjacent tennis courts, a huge play area to play soccer, catch etc. Ian spent close to 2 Hour exploring the different things this park had to offer. He wanted us to go back again the following day. There was a large flock of Parrots that were roosting in the Palm trees. They were so boisterous that a group of Parrots being called Pandemonium is so apt *Laughs* You should definitely check this park out. It will be a fun physical activity for your kids and hopefully for you too. read more

Great Park! There are many tennis courts and 4 pickleball courts. You can reserve them online for an hour for $10. There are also good playgrounds and lots of fields. On Saturdays many go for pick up games of volleyball and spike ball that are fun to join. Something for everyone and great to get outside! read more

Great park!!! If you're here to play pickleball or tennis make sure to make reservations online before hand. There was a group of around 50 people dancing in the quad! Very fun read more

Kept clean lots of tables with benches but some dog owners are so rude and don't pick up poops . When I call the response was friendly and information was complete read more

It's a bit more pleasant after they added the fountains and pond back, but it's still not that baby friendly if you also have an older kid on the playground. My baby is always trying to eat the wood chips if I set him down, plus they can give him splinters in his legs. So basically the baby just stays in his stroller most of the time if we go here. read more

It's a really beautiful park, nice for picnics. There were a lot of people, but lots of places to sit and hang out. There's a nice grassy hill area where you can overlook the water and palm trees. Also a big area for baseball and tennis is available. read more

Well done Sunnyvale for hiding this wonderful park for 2 years! In my constant search of places to picnic during lunch break I finally found you! If you plan to do a picnic solo or with one or 2 colleagues (too many interrupt the calm there in my opinion), this is your place. I enjoyed my salad looking at those fake tiki faces...I felt like if I was at the Easter Island! (fear not, there are not heavy rocks to damage your fragile kids, I think they are either fiberglass or heavy plastic). The best: those super tall palm trees, not so abundant in this area. This is my favorite tree ever and gives a tropical touch to this park. If you go during lunch time, like it is my case you will find Japanese senior couples and a bunch of Indian mom and babies and toddlers. Also some picnicquers here and there, on the grass or at one of the many tables. I would have expect a 'dated park' like looks to be so common around Silicon Valley, but this seems modernized yet resisting the pass of time and still having that 70s allure to it. I parked on the street (beautiful houses in this hood, by the way) but there is parking designated for the park goers. A true gem in Sunnyvale! read more

After a weekend in scorching ass Sacramento, I drove home just in time to complete my groceries and change for my best friend's engagement party. I usually don't care for such gatherings but I'm part of it so it is vital that I am there. Fairly easy to get to and from what I experienced, plentiful parking. I didn't explore much but I liked the little pond in the middle and the various play areas that surrounds the pond. It was lovely and the perfect thing was that the pond, the trees, and clean and open grass area went extremely well w/ the luau theme. I don't have such attire for a luau but I did sport my Keds dress and sandals. If you are a parent of a small child, don't wear wedges or heels because going into the sand is a pain in the ass. We made reservations for the picnic area so all we had to do was get there and start the setup. I think about 50 people showed up but we had food enough for 100, if not more. The bride to be (now a wife), the maid-of-honor, and myself are all into cooking and baking so our most concern was having enough food for everyone to enjoy. There were leftovers but thank goodness I left way before then otherwise I wouldn't have fit perfectly into my bridesmaid's dress. It's a very clean park to just enjoy the outdoors, have a picnic, a date, or let the kids run loose but be careful as there are no railings around the pond so your little one can fall in it at any given moment. My daughter is well aware and old enough but my almost 2 year old felt inclined to test the waters and to give me a scare every few minutes. Whilst the wedding crew grouped together for a photo, he ate sand! As long as you clean up after yourself, watch over your kid(s), and notice your surroundings (report any suspicious activities, etc.) then it will help keep this park clean and safe. read more

I really wanted to like this park. It is so different than any other park I been too. The theme of the play area is your on an island surrounded by water and palm trees. There are two play structure made of wood and metal bars, lots of it. I could see how your little one could easily hit a metal bar or fall through one. Careful not to touch the wood, you can easily get many tiny splinter. The slide is made of metal also. There is a slide made of concrete that is next to the water, make sure you keep an eye on your little one, can easily trip and roll down into the water. Park more suitable for older kids than younger one. Restroom was clean and has a changing table. read more

When I was growing up, Las Palmas Park was always the place that was the go to when planning any family events or functions due to the abundance of wide of open space, tables, and BBQ pits. I just recently took a visit and it is still the same as I remember. It is still green, lush, and clean as ever. There is plenty of grass to do a variety of activities including picnics, sports, or just relaxing in the sun. There is also plenty of space for the children to run around and play on the playground. Las Palmas also has a separate dog park, toddler play area, and tennis courts- literally something for everyone. It also has palm trees! This is not a park you will find by just driving around as it is well hidden in a residential neighborhood. Defiantly a gem of Sunnyvale! PS: If you build up an appetite after being here, there is an In N Out Burger one mile down the road. read more

I really loved this park until one Thursday on March 24th around 3:30Pm I was with my daughter (5 mo) and my son 3 years old were here hanging out some random lady came up to me trying to talk to me for about 10 minutes she looked a little off she was by her self. At the end of the conversation I finally caught on and realized she was some sort of kid napper or sex trafficker because she so badly wanted me to go with her to her car. This has never happened to me before and I was terrified. I left asap. I tried taking a photo of her but she left very quickly. A middle age women, black hair, jean jacket long brown bag. Please watch your children at all times at this park. read more

This is a large park with tons of space. There's a lot of grass for kids and pets to run around and also a good number of trash cans spread around the park. There's a dedicated parking lot with trees that provide a good amount of shade. There's also a good amount of street parking (I didn't see any restrictions). There's a dog park tucked in the corner, but it seems like most people choose to walk their dog(s) around the park, leashed. There are no soggy bags available around the park, it I do think they provide some at the actual dog park section. Lots of people around, some a bit strange and questionable. I was there about an hour and a half, and I spotted a police car circling every once in awhile (safe? unsafe?). Bonus - lots of shade and free, ample parking. Water park available during the summer. Looks like a great place for the kids to cool down. read more
