Bacolod Baywalk Recreational Park — Attraction in Bacolod

For the Sunset: 10/10 For the Park: 2/10

Pros: There's food here Kind-of nice lights at night There's a nice cafe with a good view of the coast. Lots of parking space.

Cons: The place is run-down severly, and it doesn't seem to be complete yet. They did nothing to improve the pavement where people would walk along the coast. The exhibits featured in the photos others posted here are no longer around. Worst of all, they have the gall to charge an entrance fee for a very run-down facility. Had to pay P115 to enter with a vehicle.

Verdict: I am from Iloilo, and I know how good we have it to have free access to walkable parks like these. So I had my expectations in check when visiting the place, but boy, my disappointment has reached for the moon and kept going.

We visited this place for lunch, only to discover a mandatory entrance fee at the gate. After paying, we were shocked to find all food shops were closed.

The whole experience felt like a deliberate attempt to collect entrance fees from unsuspecting visitors. This security guard's negligent behavior and poor judgment should be grounds for termination. Management needs to address this deceptive and unprofessional conduct. Based on this experience, I cannot recommend this establishment to anyone. The level of customer service is completely...

Bacolod Baywalk offers a nice view of the sea, especially during sunset, and can be a peaceful spot for a quick stroll or some quiet time. However, aside from the scenic sight-seeing, there really isn’t much else to do in the area.

There are limited activities or attractions, and the place can feel a bit dull if you’re expecting more than just a walk along the bay. It’s also worth noting that some parts of the area could use more maintenance and improvement in terms of cleanliness and amenities.

If you're looking for vibrant experiences, food options, or entertainment, this may not be the ideal place to spend your time. It’s best suited for those who just want a brief stop to enjoy the view — but not recommended if you’re planning to make it a main part of your...
