My review is for the premium Cabana we rented today, which was between the two wave pools. The Perfect location to the beach, food, bathrooms and very private. We had cabana # 1 and it has a locker which fits two backpacks, and towels. Nice wicker seating with two lounge chairs outside. Can fit four comfortably. Victor showed us to our cabana and was very nice. Pictures enclosed of the set up and walking out to the wave pools. We ordered food which came in one hour and was delivered hot. The waters included were a plus, and taking a break in the quiet area was worth the money. My only comments on rides would be they need more help on the tube ride. Secondly, wasps were taking over the soda machine area and nobody who worked there did anything as people struggled. A super fun day for my husband, older teen and myself. Tip: bring flip flops to store in the cubby by rides as the ground gets very hot and burns mid day.

I was NOT impressed. First of all, I got a ticket for ~$45, which I thought was pretty good, but then parking is$42.50, and the smallest locker is $35! So just walking in the door, I was up $122.50, much more expensive than a Disney water park, which is much nicer, has free parking, and lockers only cost $10. One nice thing is that the park opens at 9, and there are arguably more slides that a solo rider can do. But all the slides don't open at 9, I had to come back round to the toilet-bowl projector slides (which are SO HOT - temperature wise) and the lazy river, which doesn't open until 10, and opens with a big line when it does. Speaking of the lazy river, it's so short! You do float by the commerson's dolphin tank and a scuzzy fish tank, but it's pretty crowded from the get-go. I liked the rapids river a good bit better. The body slide through the dolphin tank is kinda neither here nor there - the clear tube is so scummy with algae - which is intentional, there are signs about it - that even if a dolphin happened to swim by the exact moment you pass, you'd hardly be able to see it. After Typhoon Lagoon the two wave pools look very gentle. And overall, the water is really tepid everywhere. I don't know if other parks cool their water any, but it was noticeably not refreshing to be in the water at this park. Also, unlike the Disney parks, if you are a single rider, they aren't going to try to put you with people on the three raft rides, you just can't ride those. By arriving early, I easily got through the entire park before lunch and I was pretty determined to not give them any more money, so I left before noon. I'm pretty sure every other water park in the area is better than this one. It's clean, but there's a lot that could be rehabbed - like the colorful tubes over the lazy river, many of them are deflated and in one spot they're falling down over the water. I felt like I paid a lot for a little here.

The kids’ area was spacious and appealing to children of all ages. The lazy river was a fun attraction, offering a thrilling ride that propelled us swiftly. My girls thoroughly enjoyed it. The water slides throughout the park were popular, with a 45-50 minute wait time. While the workers were friendly, the guests were generally rude and impatient, knowing that lines are longer during peak season like July.

Best water park ever! We had a crew of 8 from the ages of 5 to 40 and there was something for everyone. We weren't able to convince the little one to jump on a family ride but the 2 kids areas were perfect for him! We opted for a fast pass which was worth it and allowed us to get through every ride!! The staff was amazing and Ben the manager is outstanding. We loved the fast vs the lazy river and took a few rounds of that. Bring water as the son is brutal but they also have on site Rita's to cool you down 😎! There are lockers of various sizes which we found necessary since we were away from our seats so long. I think its best to just bring a waterproof bag and leave the other valuables home.

We came to this park because we had free tickets. Our time wasn't bad, but it wasn't memorable. I don't think I will plan on returning. Park was packed, but it appeared clean. Our favorite attraction was the fast lazy river that we called "Crazy River." It was a lot of fun. We spent about one hour there and then decided to leave the park.
