I really wanted to love this place… Mini golf with the kids was fun but expensive. They have an ice cream bar (Hershey’s ice cream) so don’t expect anything fancy. Ice cream was expensive as well, cones are charged separately from the actual ice cream. 3 ice-​cream cones and 1 cherry ice and 1 water came out to $ 28! Also, it’s cash only and slow service as well.

As others have stated, it’s expensive here. I get that it’s a small, semi-​exclusive island. I get that this place is the only mini golf outlet available. But c’mon. It’s Hershey’s ice cream for crying out loud! It would be one thing if they were making it themselves or carrying some high-​end brand, but that’s not the case.
Having the upper hand on the supply/​demand dichotomy is one thing, but price gouging your customers like this is just insulting. Sorry, Whale’s Tale. You fooled me once!

Save your money. $ 9.50 per person for a lack luster course. No children’s rate? The place is in disrepair. Not to mentioned overpriced ice cream. To give you an idea, it cost $ 35 to take our 3 year old, with a cup of ice cream.
This place could be so much better. We will not be going back.

Awesome Ice cream spot! Great time! Ice cream and mini golf! We had a great day here! Fun, upbeat Atmosphere! Music! Great for families and kids. Price is average Ice cream prices,. Actually, cheaper than others I’ve been to so no complaining here. Plenty of flavors and variety. All the employees are super friendly. Perfect Day! Thanks Whales Tales!

I hate to give a bad review bc it’s so charming and the mini golf looks great altho it has signs posted everywhere that they charge $$ for lost balls.
BUT ice cream for 6 with three of them kids cones cost $ 43. They CHARGE for cones and when asked about this unusual practice, we got a very angry and defensive answer from the owner. Not worth it for plain ol Hershey’s ice cream.

Great ice cream and service. Cute little place for miniature golf. Didn’t have time for it but the kids did enjoy the Flintstone themed pay per ride cars.
A bit pricey but hey it’s on an island so this much is expected. $ 16.88 for a kiddie scoop of strawberry ice cream on a rainbow sprinkle cone, and 2 single scoop cones.

If you enjoy mini golf then this is the place for you. It’s especially fun on a warm summer’s evening. The music is always excellent. A good retro mix of 70’s and 80’s funk and soul. Disco and R&B. The place is run by a really nice guy with a really nice face. There’s nothing that’s wrong with the place. Good ice cream after the game.
Go. Enjoy.
