My Dad still lives in Pacific Palisades, and my other siblings grew up here. But somehow, I/we had never come to this playground in all those years! And it's not as if I didn't know it was here.... hmmm... Anyway, allllll these years later, I've brought my kids to this playground! We enjoy hunting for and discovering different playgrounds together. My 2 & 4 year old absolutely love this playground! Most are not made for their age, but this one is pretty easy for them to play on. This design also makes it easier for parents as well, so we aren't having to constantly lift and carry the kiddos onto the parts of the playground they want to go. The can easily get to the slides on their own, which makes it great for uninterrupted play, and more relaxation for the parents! Oh, and did I mention there's very pretty views from way up here too?!?

I also can try the cul de sacs, however most times these side streets are pretty crowded. w So why would I need to go the park when it's raining? Well, just like everyone else around the area, I have a dog and I live in a townhouse. Poor puppy will wake me up at 2 am if I don't get her good and tired. So, we go to the park. Leading into the secondly... Secondly, I have been doing this for over a year and by now, my dog has friends. Like, a lot of friends. And the humans aren't so bad either. We, dogs adn humans, all get along swimmingly, giving both our dogs and us a chance to socialize. We share water bowls and trade dinner ideas, rosemary and training tips. It's a responsible, playful and peaceful scene. For the kids, there is a jungle gym that can get crowded, tennis backboards, and basketball courts. Also open space for playing whatever else you can think of. It can get crowded in the afternoon with baseball practice and the A-plus kids. Also the kids can leave a lot of rubbish and snacks around that the dogs can get into, so you gotta watch that. But other than that, its a fun, sober, happy hour. See you there!

The path is paved, wide, and stroller/ tricycle/ scooter-friendly, so it works well for both adults and kids. The whole place has a calm, welcoming vibe. There are enough people around that it doesn't feel empty, but never crowded. There are several playgrounds scattered along the loop, which makes them great "pit stops" if you're there with kids. The playgrounds aren't brand new, but they're in decent condition and set on rubber flooring. They're perfect for active toddlers and slightly older kids. Our two-year-old can enjoy the slides and smaller features without it feeling overwhelming or dangerous. The only thing I wish is that there were a few more benches near the playgrounds for parents to sit and relax. The park itself is beautiful, with lots of trees providing shade and greenery that stays fresh even in the hotter months. Lately, the flowering trees have been blooming with pinkish-yellow blossoms. There are also picnic tables and restrooms available (didn't check the restrooms personally, but they're there).

This has literally been our home away from home lately. With soccer practices, soccer games, and a…read moreconvenient playground and restrooms here, we have been coming here roughly 3-4 days a week recently. I grew up in the area and never spent so much time here until now. It's a well taken care of and clean park. Lots and lots of parking stall, and lots of street parking as well. This park can get downright crazy on the weekends with all the clubs and sports that go on here. Two gripes though: 1. We recently notices that parts of the playground have been deteriorating and is in dire need of a fixing, before someone gets hurt. Always check out the playground before you let your kids play on it. 2. We truly wish there was a restroom at the upper part of the park too, besides the one in the rec center that they don't allow anyone to use. It's an absolute pain to be at the playground with the littles, and all of a sudden one needs the restroom and you either have to walk all the way down and back up, or drive... ugh... Otherwise, we love this park!

As we walked into the building, we were greeted by a sign saying "No Public Restrooms" I was a bit confused, cus I thought it was a public Building, Maybe I'm wrong.

There's shade to park under the trees in the parking lot but I wouldn't want to hang out here alone. Just doesn't feel safe here. I would rather go where it's quiet and you don't get the hustle and bustle here. I had to use the restroom and it was kind of disgusting but if you gotta go, you gotta go. There were no soap dispensers so you only washing your hands with water. I thought it was strange that there were no mirrors either. I only come here to park under shade and wouldn't go down to just hang out. Just an okay park. It's pretty big. There's even a skate park behind the basketball courts.

I know that lots of places that kids frequent are prone to lots of germs and what not; and kids are notorious for getting sick. But I stopped bringing them here because everytime we did, they would get sick. But now just with a common cold or minor sick. They get really sick. My son once picked up some bacterial infection that carried in poop from an infected person that frequents medical facilities! Gross! It was not fun! And this is not an exaggeration, they were literally getting ill evwrytime we brought them to this park. I didn't realize it then, but check out other playgrounds, you'll notice that this one is pretty nasty compared to a lot of others. The trash cans are almost always full, the weeds get pretty horrendous, it's always loaded with flies, and you can always find piles of dog poop that people don't pick up in the grass. On another note, there are always tons of bigger kids frequenting this playground with no adult supervision, sitting around the jungle gym, making it harder for little ones to play. Anyway, after playground hopping with my two Littles, we've found so many more playgrounds that are better taken care of, cleaner, and friendlier. Never mind that this one happens to be most convenient for us, convenience is no longer a priority in our playground situation.

It's located near the playground, next to the bike rack, on the opposite side of the bathrooms. The Good: + Basketball court with 6 hoops. + Awesome view of Pearl Harbor. + Soccer teams play soccer games here. Needs Maintenance: + Bathroom: bring napkins, hand sanitizer/soap, or go somewhere else to use the bathroom. Parking: There are 2 parking areas, one below near the fire station. The other one is located near the recreation center. The parking near the recreation center has a lot of shade. Needs to be demolished and rebuilt: - Playground: Graffiti is prevalent on the structure. There are boards, huge cracks on the slide where kids can cut themselves, and portions of the playground is completely taken off. Overall, good park to play different sports. Don't come here to play at the playground. Check out the mini library if your in the area.

Just…read moreget rid of the electric tower and lines that run mountain-to-ocean and you've got a pretty much unobstructed view from Kapolei to Diamond Head. It's fantastic. What I don't like is the poor field conditions, the lack of cutting the really tall brush adjacent to the fields, and the millions of mosquitos. Watching my daughter's soccer practice is painful, not because she can't play (she's my own little Natasha Kai, thank you very much), but because of the little critters chewing on my flesh for 2.5-hours. You'd think I'd get a can of 'OFF' by now, but nah...I spend my money on sunflower seeds! There is not enough parking stalls at the top of the park, but drive down to the bottom closer to the fire station and there's a large lot and plenty of street parking. No matter, I just love sitting in my soccer-viewing chair and enjoying the view. It makes up for being eaten alive!

Most the old reviews are for a different park. Pacheco Neighborhood Park is located at the…read moreintersection of Kamehameha Hwy and Waimano Home Road. It shares an entrance with Pearl Harbor Elementary School. The park has two ball fields, a basketball court, tennis/pickleball court, and restrooms. The restrooms are open 24/7 which unfortunately has people in it for no reason at all. It just does not make it safe to use the bathroom when there are others just there. If it weren't for the bathrooms, then this place would be pretty decent. But the bathrooms bring this place down. The courts themselves are in ok. And the ball fields, while not spectacular, are decent. There are bleachers, but the ones under the trees are graffitied up. I know it sounds like I should bring the ratings down some more, but the park is usable. Parking is above the park, so be prepared to walk the stairs or take the ramp down. And for irony, the police station is right up mauka from the park, but you won't find any cops hanging around here.
