A bit pricey for the experience, but a nice part of an afternoon. Just make sure you go on a cool day because it does get HOT.
We hesitantly visited Sunken Gardens today after reading some of the more negatives reviews (about the park being rundown). But a local friend loves the place, and the groupon price was pretty good, so we went. It was our first time. Yes, the gardens could have used up some sprucing up, yes, some of the enclosures were empty, but we...

We visited here several years ago before i started contributing here on Tripadvisor. Things have changed a great deal and unfortunately not for the better. We had a Groupon coupon and I am glad we did as I was a little disappointed.
The concrete enclosures that the one contributor noted being empty used to hold animals/reptiles on display, but no...

I have a ridiculous obsession with flamingos. So I basically went to see them. But I adore flowers so was psyched. There weren't many flowers compared to the gardens I visit at home. Mostly tropical vegetation with koi ponds throughout. It's very nice to see something different on your trip. The price is GREAT. I may have missed a small...

Went there because we had coupons,thank goodness,would have really been dissapointed had we paid any more.There were some lovely plants but expected more beautiful flowers as well.Didn't really have the look or feel of a well maintained place.Did find a really nice set of measuring spoons in the gift shop there.Better ways to spend your money!!

For one thing, I am not a fan of caged or penned animals so the sight of the caged parrots, kookaburra, and flamingos in the man-made concrete enclosure just made me sad. The koi were in a very small murky...

We visited the sunken gardens and really enjoyed the self directed walking tour which took approx. 2 hrs. The only negative was the fact that the plants were not named which would have been helpful. Entry fee was reasonable.
A very well worth stop to wander the brilliantly schemed gardens.
Everything is lush and well tended. The Koi are a sight to behold.
It is an outdoors venue so strollers, wheelchairs, can be used.
There is an Italian restaurant and Ice Creamery in the same complex,
making it easy for families to have a complete outing without driving
elsewhere...

Having driven by SG several times decided to visit with friends. It's a great botanical garden with a large variety of ornamental plants and flowers that you would expect. On a Sunday afternoon it's a great retreat under the shade of swaying palms for $8. Search for Groupon to see if you can get one of their 2-for-1 deals.
