First time visiting this place and it didn't disappoint! I will say it is pretty pricey, but my…read moretoddler had so much fun that it was worth it. They still have areas that are under renovation so no everything is fully open but it was just like two areas that were closed so no need to worry. The food from the food truck Criollo was amazing! I would've love maybe something aside of beer to drink since I don't like beer. The little boats are must ok! your kids will love it My only criticism ( and reason for no adding the 5th star) is that the parking area has no wheelchair access nor elevator. We had to go down 3 floors with the strollers on the street and that is not safe.

Loud and really loud at places but something that adds to the energy for me, for others it may be a bit much. Though the volume was reduced along the way possibly after a certain hour. Love the nod to Puerto Rico and it's traditions as well to the USA, and other locations and history time periods. And an opportunity to teach young kids about what is being presented. Saw several parents teaching and quizzing. And the design is excellent and has some Japanese gardens flair. Evening temperatures make the stroll super pleasurable. I highly highly recommend this seasonal spectacular, it's worth the admission of $28. And I assume any excess of proceeds possibly fund the science center itself (which houses / displays) animals. Win Win. Kids of all ages, the lights call to the child in all of us. Be like the 3 wisemen (3 kings) and follow the light/s.

There is a reason why it's so popular with Boy/Cub/Girl Scout activities on the weekends. But don't worry, there is plenty of space to share. They have two paths: one for bikes and one for walking/jogging. If you do have kids just be mindful of the other cyclists to avoid any accidents. The path is long and leads to the coast. By the parking lot there is a shack called Lemonicious, where you can get food, snacks, and refreshments. They have a couple of tables around so you can eat.

"Noria" was a "People Usher" at the Dog Park.  She was rude.  We wanted our toddler to be able to…read morewatch the dogs from the vestibule area, and she would not let us.  Even though we don't have a dog, there have been plenty of times where we went into the dog area... to watch them play.  Prior Ushers did not mind.  After all, how is the safety factor changed whether we have a dog or not?  It's illogical.  But in this case, we simply wanted to stand in the vestibule, holding our toddler, and watch the dogs over the fence.  Nope... Noria would not let us, and was quite rude in letting us know that.  When I explained to her that we had in fact been in many times, she has no answer.  She simply cited "the rules."  When I asked to see these rules, she said "They aren't written down."  I then asked for her name, and she was defiant and defensive, then she finally gave it to me, rudely, and said "My boss is right behind you."  An older male and female were there in a golf cart, and the female there politely explained a recent change to the rules to my wife.  This was better, professional at least.  Meanwhile snowflake Noria was so "shaken" that she needed a hug from the male supervisor.  Generation Z... rude, unprofessional, and sensitive.  Was a negative experience for us and for our toddler, thanks to Noria. "Noria" era una "acomodadora de personas" en el parque para perros. Era grosera. Queríamos que nuestro hijo pequeño pudiera vigilar a los perros desde el área del vestíbulo, y no nos lo permitió. Aunque no tenemos perro, muchas veces hemos entrado en el área de perros... para verlos jugar. A los acomodadores anteriores no les importó. Después de todo, ¿cómo cambia el factor de seguridad si tenemos perro o no? Es ilógico. Pero en este caso, simplemente queríamos quedarnos en el vestíbulo, sosteniendo a nuestro hijo pequeño, y mirar a los perros por encima de la cerca. No... Noria no nos lo permitió y fue bastante grosera al hacérnoslo saber. Cuando le expliqué que, de hecho, habíamos estado allí muchas veces, no tuvo respuesta. Simplemente citó "las reglas". Cuando le pedí que me las mostrara, dijo "No están escritas". Luego le pregunté su nombre y se mostró desafiante y a la defensiva, luego finalmente me lo dio, de manera grosera, y dijo "Mi jefe está justo detrás de ti". Había un hombre y una mujer mayores en un carrito de golf, y la mujer que estaba allí le explicó educadamente a mi esposa un cambio reciente en las reglas. Esto fue mejor, al menos profesional. Mientras tanto, Noria, la copo de nieve, estaba tan "conmocionada" que necesitaba un abrazo del supervisor masculino. Generación Z... grosera, poco profesional y sensible. Fue una experiencia negativa para nosotros y para nuestro niño pequeño, gracias a Noria.

A nice place to walk and explore that is just off of the beach a short distance. Parking tip, drive…read moreto the end of the park. You can tell you are there because there is a light, if you turn left it's into the beach area and paid parking ($5). Or turn left and you can park on the street for free. We walked across the whole park and explored, took pictures, ran from chickens (well roosters), etc. If you go later in the week there is a restaurant that is open (Wed - Sat or Thurs - Sat). That would have a pretty cool view and is in a pretty old historic building. On the way back we walked across the civilian bridge towards the beach. The second we got on the bridge we got cooled off because the beach breeze made it that far. Walked back along the beach and had some additional photo opps. Keep this in mind, the heat of the day it does get warm. It's easy, relatively flat walking, but hot non the less. Take some water so you don't get over heated. We'd recommend this as part of your stay in San Juan if you like exploring historical type locations.

O-kay... Well,…read morewhether you slip, hit your head and hallucinate because you *chose* to skate during bad weather through a 1/2 inch of rain; OOORR you simply safely stroll around looking for a nice spot to take your kids to, just know this park is one of the oldest in the island, and a nice, old-school way to kill time. But as is the case with beaches in Puerto Rico, avoid it during very late afternoon and night time unless there's a special event of some sort. There's an awesome nearby hamburger joint, creatively called "El Hamburger" :-P where you can have the best cheap burger afterwards. Or perhaps go to Old San Juan or Condado, which are both less than 10 minutes away by car. ---------------------------------------En Puertorro, ahora------------------------------------ Bueno, definitivamente no es muy buena idea escoger patinar cuando está lloviendo a cántaros, en este parque o donde sea... Pero este parque es muy lindo y una buena alternativa para hacer algo activo y fuera de la casa, sea solo, ejercitando acompañado o con niños, ya que hay áreas de recreo específicamente para niños. Por supuesto, como en todo parque y playa en Puerto Rico, no es recomendable estar ahí en la noche, para evitar robos o situaciones lamentables, salvo que hubiera algún evento especial en que haya mucha gente, claro. Cerca de ahí, como a 5 minutos, hay un sitio de hamburguesas que se llama "El Hamburger", y es muy bueno. Otra alternativa después-de es Condado o el Viejo San Juan, ya que quedan como a 10 minutos en carro desde el parque. :-)

The Río Piedras Tennis Club is located here. They open everyday and offer classes. Located adjacent to the park are a basketball court and a soccer/field hockey field.

Believe it or not, this beach is nice but not the nicest in PR. Location for this beach is…read morealongside lots of resorts. But after hanging out closer to the airport side, we got spoiled with the smooth sand and no rocks. Condado Beach is full of rocks so running or working out is a challenge if you're into beach workouts. The beach is public however the resorts do a decent job of curtailing the public patrons. We stayed at Stellaris for the last leg of our trip and the resort gave out wrist bands to ensure employees knew were guest. It was easy to get lounge chairs as they would see us walking from the hotel and the wrist band was a quick give away. If you're a resort guest you'll get towels. Other people who were on lounge chairs with no towels had either paid for the chairs and/or were staying at the cheaper hotels behind the resort. In summation, although the location is live and busy, the beach is not the best on the island but it does the job. Would likely not stay in the area again as this beach wasn't the most beautiful on the trip. When you come to an island, the beach is the most important part and should be the most beautiful place you are.

It's surrounded by the toddler zone, cafeteria, stage for shows and performances during birthdays, arcade room, two rooms reserved for birthday parties. The issue of it being small is that it may become boring for some kids after a while. But that is my take, and my kid sort of proved me wrong because he loved it. The best part about this place is the price of admission. It's not based on the hour like most places. You pay a flat fee which varies depending on the day.
