RATING AS A HANG OUT DURING THE DAY…read more On my first walk down Don Juico Ave, I remember looking up and seeing the rooftop infinity pool. I made a mental note to check out that place one day. Well, two years later I found an excuse to go. I was giving my friend a tour of Angeles City, and thought, now would be a perfect time to check out the Aqua Beach Club. We were instructed to take the elevator to the 7th floor. At the reception desk they gave us a waterproof bracelet with a number that the staff use to keep track of our tab; we would then pay our bill on the way out. Entrance is P250 for females and P500 for men, which goes toward any food or drink purchase. Of course the first thing we did was to ascend a flight of stairs to the Sky Bar. It was nice and breezy up there. Beware if you're scared of heights, because they have glass barriers; you can see alllll the waaaay doooown. Since there were no couches nor fans in the Sky Bar, we went back down to the main floor and chose one of the couches. WE SHARED - Watermelon shake made from fresh fruit. This was naturally sweet, but it could have used just a little bit of syrup - Tiramisu was a bit sour, my friend thinks it was because they used cream cheese. Staff are friendly, food is pricy, and the infinity pool that wraps around the club was interesting. I'm not into the club scene, so I was here for the view. Sadly, there's a fire pit area, two cabanas, and a HUGE building under construction that are blocking the view. Except for the Sky Bar, the place feels a bit cramped.

New buildings, old buildings, the struggles and survival of the foreign investors can be assessed with the 6 cabanas and 10 spacious group seating areas around the island bar.

Soft trance music and comfortable seating above the street pollution. Very luxious for Angeles. Upscale of a roof pool at Trump Towers waikiki back in the 2011 timeframe.

Zapps is probably the closest thing there is, but it gets old to go to the same place over & over. Our group of 6 decided to grab a table upstairs that oversaw the stage and the tables below. We ordered several buckets of beer, but I wanted to have some hard alcohol. None of their cocktails were available, but of course, I could order a full bottle. I was the only one drinking hard liquor so didn't order a whole bottle. I can't imagine too many in Cabanatuan ever ordering bottles so I don't understand why they wouldn't sell single shots. The service is also really slow. It took forever to hunt down a server and many times they would forget what we would order. The only saving grace here was the performers. They band played some great sets and the DJ played a good dance mix. He kept the crowd going even though it was 90% male.

As someone who doesn't frequent clubs, I enjoyed the entirety of my night at House Manila. I stayed until Lady Trinity's set. I ended up going home at 4 in the morning. Someone has to let loose once in a while. Last Friday (15th May), House Manila teamed up with radio station, Magic 89.9, to an event called "People from Ibiza." They invited DJ Oliver Schmitz who flew in from Ibiza to Manila for a one-night only event. There were many people in the club that night but I didn't feel so suffocated by it! It didn't feel like we were all forced to be huddled in a cramped space. It was refreshing to be honest. It did leave an impression on me and my friends and I have decided to come back some time soon. House was full of yuppies, models and creative folk. You're sure bound to meet an interesting lot (of people). I know I did!

If you want to get a couch, you need to have a reservation so you'll need to talk to one of their promoters because if you decided to go walk in, the line would probably be long! Also, they close the doors at 12 midnight (I think) so keep that in mind. They have a huge range of drinks to choose from. Wear upscale as much as possible because they won't let you in if you're dressed down or wear too casual clothes. Shorts and slippers aren't allowed when it comes to the guys. And they also ask for a valid I.D. just to make sure you're legal. It's a fun place to party with your friends!

When I visited this club last night I'm pretty surprised how huge this place is. You can never see this size of club in nyc & with pool? No way! So for me this club is worth the visit. Music wise not really into some edm type of music but still I had fun! Costumer service is amazing & servers & crew are very organize. They always check your table if you have a drinks in your glass & always refill it. They always talk to u politely with a smile on their face. I'm really happy I made it a try! Good job!! 5 star for adding my Philippine trip amazing!!! :)

The Palace Pool Club is what I like to loosely call Manila's answer to Encore Beach Club in Las…read moreVegas. IF I WAS RATING THE VENUE ALONE, I'D GIVE IT FOUR STARS. SO WHY TWO STARS? I've only been to the Palace Pool Club twice, both during special events with international DJs. The first was their two year anniversary with Yellow Claw in April 2017 and the second was Flume's first show in Manila just recently in December 2017. The two year anniversary show with Yellow Claw seemed to have went on without a hitch. I arrived past midnight with my friend and getting in was a breeze. There was no crowd outside; everyone was inside and the dance floor was easy to navigate. HOWEVER, just recently with this Flume event, it was an absolute disorganized MESS. Apparently, the Palace Pool Club was hosting a private company event earlier that evening prior to Flume. Mind you, doors usually open at 9 p.m. but due to the private event, we were informed doors wouldn't be opened until 11:30 p.m., as the private event would end at 11 p.m. This was only advertised on their Facebook page and an obscure Instagram post. Otherwise, a vast majority was completely left in the dark. It was already 11:30 p.m. and there were at least a hundred people gathered around the designated tents. The bouncers had NO IDEA how to organize the lines and they constantly contradicted each other. One bouncer forced our already created line to move to a new tent and then another bouncer forced the line to move back. I, along with everyone else, was pissed because we were the first ones in that already formed line. I noticed here in the Philippines, locals choose to avoid conflict and would rather suffer in silence by choosing to stay silent. However, I am NOT one of those people. I told the bouncer it was not fair to allow this new line to cut ahead of the line that was already fully formed. The fully formed line was moved to one area and then back again because of another bouncer's irresponsible negligence and lack of information and organization. His response? "Well, this line ahead of you doesn't have too many people." There were at least 25 people in that line. I strongly responded, "It doesn't matter. We were here first and we moved because we were told to move by a bouncer who was clearly misinformed and knew nothing. This is all extremely disorganized." I could tell the bouncer was nervous I would either get him in trouble or incite a riot amongst the angry crowd so he created a separate line for us. Even being in the front of the line, there was more waiting. Already annoyed, I did not appreciate being left in the dark, literally. It was not until around 12:15 a.m. when I was able to temporarily restrain my irritation over the highly disorganized event and I kindly asked the woman in charge of validating passes, when we would be able to proceed into the venue. She responded positively and made a phone call. Five minutes later, passes were then being validated... only to be slowed down by iPad scanners that were malfunctioning... AGAIN, JUST AN ABSOLUTE DISORGANIZED MESS. I'm glad I opened my big mouth because we all would have been left completely in the dark, just aimlessly waiting. At least things got done after I spoke up. Whoever is running The Palace Pool Club, you literally need to get your team and all that shit together. You all NEED to COMMUNICATE. Not just amongst yourselves but with the people who paid their hard earned money to see a show at your venue. Don't leave us hanging in the dark because you all WILL get cursed out. The Palace Pool Club, I hope this serves as a lesson to be better prepared for future events because this one was a disaster. Flume was the saving grace of it all. ***ALSO, who the hell approved a private company event literally mere hours before a major show by an international DJ that has been heavily advertised on social media since the SUMMER?! I do NOT see ANY logic in making such a decision. You all obviously thought you could get the venue cleared out in time and maintain order but you were all dead wrong. I think it was mere luck the event proceeded as scheduled by getting everyone inside within the hour. Marc Naval, the Palace's resident DJ, deserved a slightly longer opening set and Flume deserved to be treated with greater significance and respect with an artist of his stature by reserving that night to be solely HIS.***

Let me be clear. This is not a dance club. It's really not even a bar in the sense that you can…read moresocialize and drink as a single tourist. The only dancers are the ones on stage. And "dancer" is used very loosely for a lot of them. The beefcake is ok to look at. But with all the muscles, it's really awkward to just watch them move to the beat. It hurts to watch. And when they take off their shirts, all you hear are the screams of little girls in the audience like it's a Chippendales club for straight women If you want to go for just a few drinks, don't expect to be able to stand anywhere to watch the entertainment or cruise for your fling that night. The tables are reserved for bottle service, which you have to book in advance. There is a cover charge equivalent to US $20 - this includes 2 drinks. Ok great. But the question has always been, where do you stand if you're just a visitor and you don't know about the table reservations?? Any little bit of extra space they might have is dedicated to the myriad servers they employ. It's not like you can stand casually at a bar the way you can at other bars/clubs So it's really for cliques of friends to occupy the tables that surround the stage, and definitely not a place to go to meet anyone new. That is fine if that's what you want Without a table reservation, you really feel like an outsider, and they say you can stand and drink your drink at a table, but you need to leave as soon as the people who reserved the table arrive It's basically dinner theater Don't get me wrong - the drag queens are good. If they weren't, they wouldn't have a RuPaul's Drag Race Philippines franchise Personally, I won't go back This place doesn't provide a good enough balance of worthwhile performances with talking to cute Filipino boys or travelers like us It's just sad that it's only one of maybe two gay establishments total in Manila

Manila is home to a super colorful LGBTQ+ community ranging from flamboyant outfits, conservative folks, and all in between. We were ready for performances and entertainment to blow us away. O'Bar in Ortigas Center has been around for several years now, it's been one of the more popular shows around. I've seen YouTube videos of Drag Race Philippines but haven't followed religiously like RuPaul's Drag Race, but when I see these ladies perform on stage, I know I'll recognize them. We planned on coming on a Sunday with a group of 5 of us, what we all agreed was purchase a bottle of alcohol and get a lounge VIP table. The club requires each person a cover fee which included 3 drink tickets. But with the price of a bottle, table rates are fully consumable which we planned on being out for a while. What surprised us the most was not only there was one round of production, after the GoGo dancers were complete with their number, another drag show came out in a whole new repertoire!
