I visited Magic Ice last week with a group of friends I was traveling with and we had a great time! Joy at the front desk handed out and helped us with our Magic Ice coats and leg warmers. She even took several photos of us with our phones. Once inside we sat in the chair/throne made of ice and... More

That was different and a good attraction. Paid $15 since it was the weekend- Inside were a set of ice sculptures- depicting some of the island and I even saw a Bob Marley sculpture - well done. I had a shot of coconut rum in a glass made out of ice-the drink went down well-had to wear coats and gloves... More

It was like going through a Beautifu Ice Art Gallery when it was blistery hot outside! I really enjoyed it and took many pictures!

We had a great time at the ice house.... It was fun to dress up and take pictures. The shot at the end was icing on the cake!

Where else can you visit an ice bar in the Caribbean? Doesn't look like much from the outside, but truly a unique place once inside. The sculptures are beautiful, especially lit as they are, glad we saw it, would we go back? Probably not. It is kind of expensive, your $20.00 entry buys you the rental of coats, leggings and...

It was just average. Nothing I would go to again. It was not that outstanding and it looks like nothing from the outside.

Ok so it was "carnival" when we visited on a cruise, and I have had to work my share of holidays. I understand the people didn't want to be there but the reality remains that you are there! And if you have to be there then you might as well make the most of it, so paying guests can enjoy... More

We visited this spot and we were surprised by the sculptures and the atmosphere. You pay $20.00 and you receive your jacket, leg warmers, gloves and then, after you walk around inside the 24 degrees sculpture area, you come to a bar and you receive a free shot of bacardi and you get to keep the glass!! Everything inside this... More

This bar is very fun and different from anything else around. A great way to beat the heat outside too i suppose. but unless you are looking to spend awhile in a bar, or drink a few drinks, maybe this isnt the place because its $20 to get in.
