I have been to sea life aquarium several times over the years. I first brought my nephew 10 years…read moreago and I've brought my son several times over the years. It's not terribly large, but it is a pretty good size. We usually spend about 45 minutes to an hour here which is kind of his attention span. They have lots of places that you can climb up and feel like you are inside the aquarium and have the fish all around you. He really likes that. They also have a place where you can pet some of the sea life. He does not like that at all. They also sometimes have opportunities to feed the sea life for an additional charge. They are currently doing an animal crossing promo and you can collect stamps as you to travel through the aquarium. At the end, you get some badges and my son really enjoyed that. The price to visit is a little steep so definitely look at getting a combo ticket. You can save money if you decide to do the aquarium as well as the wax museum in Orlando eye. We have Legoland annual passes and those include the aquarium. There's an even smaller version inside Legoland.

We visit zoos and aquariums often and genuinely don't mind paying admission when it supports…read moreconservation and provides animals with well-maintained, enriching habitats. That's why this experience was especially disappointing. We purchased tickets in advance and paid nearly $160 for four people, three adults and one child. For what was offered, that price is incredibly hard to justify. The aquarium is located inside a mall, and the entire experience felt dark, cramped, crowded, and worn down. If we felt confined walking through it, I couldn't help but think about the animals living there every day. There were surprisingly few exhibits, and the sea life itself was fairly limited. Nothing felt particularly unique, and the entire visit took us less than 30 minutes at a relaxed pace. To make matters worse, the building had an unpleasant odor. You expect a slight marine smell at an aquarium, but this smelled more like an old, damp mop than the ocean. For the admission price, we expected a much larger, cleaner, and more engaging experience. Instead, we left wondering where all that ticket money is actually going. Something about this place just didn't sit right with us. And honestly... something seems a little fishy here.

So I went to check raincheck policy…read moreand the amount of the tickets was a good amount and we didn't leave for another 3 days... 30+ mins in that line. The roller coasters were down due to lightning . Girls enjoyed themselves on that day. After informing them we would get up early 2 days later and return they were excited! They do not take cash but they do have a cash to card machine that will load your cash onto a card from the machine. Very helpful. We enjoyed a water ride. Only blemishes on trip. Fire & Ice waited 30+ minutes only to be told it was closed down so we left the line. Then we are told it reopened.. so we are in front of line and they said it had another mishap... Unfortunate. But a 10 minute delay later and we were able to ride it. The lockers situation was rather sad. Just a month ago I was at six flags St Louis and they also had lockers. A bit bigger. most rides they had a storage cubby area for riders to store backpacks... SeaWorld Orlando not so much. Because of the delays. I got the opportunity to pay the expired locker fee. Brutal in my perspective. I think it's different if it was my fault... But learning lesson for me. Dolphin show rocked. Orca show was cool. Sea lion show was fantastic! Girls loved petting the stingray. Cool park. I wasted my money on all day dining on day one. Not something you get a raincheck on. Unfortunately.

From the moment we arrived to when we left, everything was really well done. The staff were friendly and welcoming, which set the tone right away. They have a buffet for breakfast and lunch with a good variety of options, so I feel like most people could find something they like. There are also smaller stands with snacks, pizza, and ICEE stations. Now let's talk about the drinks. There is just something about a frozen daiquiri when you're by the water. Highly recommend getting the drink package and trying a few... or all of them if you can handle it. I loved how many different areas there were to explore. Seeing dolphins swimming so close to the beach was actually kind of magical. They also have a monkey island which I was really excited about. It was closed when we got there, but I could still see them from a distance and I loved that. The aviary was really cool too. Tons of birds, but also tons of people. They recommend going first thing when the birds are most active, which we did, but so did everyone else. We got there about 45 minutes after opening and the birds already seemed a little over it. Honestly, I don't blame them. The Grand Reef was such a cool experience. I didn't really know what to expect, and even though it's man made, it still feels really immersive. Some of those rays are huge and have zero fear. They will swim right into you. My guy had never experienced anything like that and he loved it. I also liked that there were shallow areas and deeper sections if you wanted more of a snorkeling feel. The only downside for us was the Wind Away River. There are spots that get deep really fast, and that day they were apparently out of floaties because people were hoarding them and claiming areas. Staff even acknowledged it, which was frustrating because nothing was being done about it. It made parts of the river harder to enjoy than they should have been. Other than that, everything else was great and it made for such a fun day. Also the bar swings were a highlight. Loved those.

We had our own private ambassadors show us around the park and were escorted to the sting ray feeding area . We got our wet suits and lockers . Bathroom is very clean and has plenty of towels . The sting ray feeding was so much fun . The ambassadors are very informative . Trainers will feed the larger manta rays since they are larger and take vitamins but we fed the smaller sting rays which was a lot of fun. Also we got to feed small fish which was a fun treat for us . Monkey island pool - warmest water in the park Tropical river - slightly chilly but overall fun Great reef- chillest but once submerged not bad . Colder due to sea-life . Great reef was amazing , it looks like nothing but once you put googles on it's another world. Highly recommend. All inclusive drinks package - worth the money it can get pricy . Food - buffet style , it was okay . Not great , not good but satisfied appetite . Lots of towels , food all inclusive and a great way to spend time in Orlando !

Came in looking specifically for a few things for my cycling tank (recently set up in new home and not yet ready for residents!) and these guys were great. Can't wait to get some of their corals in my tank and see them flourish. A little disappointed in their loyalty program especially that it resets every year, as once my tank is fairly stable I will be purchasing plenty, but the idea that once fully stocked I'll loose access to some of the perks because I'll eventually spend less was disappointing- it's not as if I hadn't made a fair contribution to the store by that point. But, I'm new to the area, it's possible I'll find more places but this selection will be hard to beat!

This was my very first time visiting Icon Park, and I have to admit, I was pleasantly surprised…read more The first thing I appreciated was the parking. They have a convenient parking garage where the first three floors are paid parking, while the fourth floor and above are free. That was a nice bonus and made getting there easy. I was actually on my way to a restaurant, so exploring the park wasn't part of the plan. But once I walked inside, I couldn't help but look around. There were restaurants, food vendors, candy shops, drink stands, and so much more. The atmosphere was lively, fun, and full of energy. It looked like the perfect place for families, couples, or anyone just looking to spend a few hours enjoying themselves. This is a short review because I didn't get the chance to experience everything Icon Park has to offer. However, based on my first impression alone, I can definitely say I'll be back. It was filled with excitement for both children and adults, and I'm looking forward to exploring it even more on my next visit.

Overall, I think this is a great place to check out if you are in Orlando…read more We came here because we have Legoland gold passes which means we get free admission to sea life, Madame Tussaud's, and the Orlando Eye. All three of these together took up about two hours and then we were able to go to Cafe tu tu tango to get a bite to eat. This was a great half day experience while we were visiting Orlando. There was a parking garage and parking was super easy. By that time we left around 8:30 PM there were so many cars, but when we first got there at about 5 PM there were tons of spots. They do have parking spots you can pay for in the lower levels so it seems like if you're willing to pay there will always be parking. If you want free parking, you need to go earlier because this seems to be popular for nightlife. I always appreciate when there's so many attractions together that you can walk to. This place has quite a few restaurants, some shops and the attractions all in a contained area. It was very clean and when we came, there was a huge police presence, because apparently a couple weeks before there was hundreds of teenagers that descended to the area and fought. So the place was doing a really good job making sure that everything was safe. This is a place for both families and non-families alike.
