Going to Splash Island Via Commute

Splash Island or Splash Island Spa & Resort is located in Southwoods Ecocentrum Binan, Laguna Philippines. Known for its long and exciting slides, this theme park is just beside South Luzon Express Way. Going here, via public transportation can be quite easy.


First, from EDSA, take a bus going to "PACITA" and ask the driver to drop you off at PACITA COMPLEX. There are ordinary and airconditioned buses that take this route.

In our case, our meeting place was under MRT Ayala Station. You will easily find buses here going to Pacita. We paid 54 pesos per person and traveled for I think an hour and a half before reaching Pacita Complex.

Now, going from Pacita Complex to the resort can be quite tricky. You can usually rent a tricycle that will take you to the resort but this is a bit expensive. Fare ranges from 120 pesos to 150 pesos depending on your haggling abilities. :) The price is for the whole tricycle, not individual. Its very important also to look for the green tricycles because according to the Manong Security guard whom we asked, these are the legitimate tricycles that take the Splash Island route. So there is a bigger chance that you might get a cheaper fare amount than negotiating with some buwaya tricycle drivers around the place. Travel time is 20-40 mins.


When you reach the resort, I strongly recommend to negotiate with your driver to pick you up in the afternoon. Get his contact number or something. We walked from the resort to the main highway just to get a tricycle because I was too annoyed with the BUWAYANG tricycle driver who was negotiating for a price much higher than what we paid for when we got there. grrrr...

From Pacita, simply look for buses going Cubao or Edsa. Enjoy!

*note:Food and water bought outside were not allowed in the resort. He did not forget how Manong Guard examined our bag intensely. As in kapkap to the max that he didn't mind touching our underwears inside.. ewwww. Haha! So there..
