点评:What an amazing day!! But definitely not for the faint-hearted or the wallet-shy.
We took our family of 10 with six adults and four kids under 12. We were here in low season and we arrived early, so there were no queues early in the day and none that were ridiculous as the day progressed. The longest we waited for a ride was 10-15 minutes.
We decided to book an upmarket poolside villa and to get transport to and from our hotel. The transport was similar in cost to a private booking but we wanted a van for 10 people.
Including entry, the total cost was $1250 - as the kids were all more than 120 tall and had to pay full fares. This sounds like a lot of money and at first glance it is. But it is comparable to the cost of many other tourist activities on Phuket. Seniors (over 60) have a reduced price.
We were picked up at our hotel in Karon at 9.00am and arrived at the park at 9.40 am, the park opens at 10.00am. However this allowed us to confirm the online booking, get the wrist bands and the red ‘watch like’ wrist tokens and to get our towels etc. Note that towel hire is not included in the cost for many entry packages. Senior entry includes a towel and a bottle of water.
Our Villa was right on the side of the main wave pool and the Village food court. Perfect position.
We had our own balcony overlooking the wave pool, an in-room safe, toilet and shower, air-conditioned lounge and a mini fridge loaded with soft drinks and a couple of mineral waters. We also received a big platter of nibbles food including spring rolls, sandwiches and an assortment of other tasty treats. Definitely worth the cost if you go on a busy day and terrific if you have a big group.
The water slides are the big attraction and most are great for the kids and even the seniors like us. They range in level of excitement from one to five. We went on nearly every single ride and they were all brilliant.
The staff are amazing. They have lifeguards at every activity as well as guides and staff who ensure that riders are safe and OK to go.
We have travelled to other water parks in Asia and this one is definitely the best for staff support, quality of the rides and safety. Also, as the park is is only four years old, all rides and equipment is in really good condition.
The wave pool was a big draw card for the family as it was right next to our villa and it was quite exciting to be able to catch the 1-2m artificially generated waves. Mind you, even though this was mid week, the pool was crowded at times.
We ordered lunch and drinks at the Village and took them back to our Villa. Food and drink prices were a bit more than street prices but a lot less than hotel prices. For example a Pad Thai was 227tbt and a large can of Chang beer 180tbt.
We had organized a 6.30pm return transfer and this was perfect. A few rides closed at 6.00pm and the park closed at 7.00 pm. Everyone, without fail, had a terrific day.
If you want to spend a day immersed in really great water activities and in total safety, I recommend this amazing park. You can do it cheaper and get a small cabana or nothing at all- there are innumerable personal lounges around the Wave pool and the kids’ zone (which is brilliant by the way).
When next in Phuket, you really should spend a full day here. Amazing!!
翻译:真是美妙的一天!!不过绝对不适合胆小的人或囊中羞涩的人。
我们一家十口人同行,有六个成年人和四个12岁以下的孩子。我们是在淡季来的,而且抵达得比较早,所以早上几乎没有排队现象,即便到了后来排队人数有所增多,也还算在可接受范围内。我们等待时间最长的一次,也才10到15分钟。
我们特意预订了一栋高档的泳池畔别墅,还安排了往返酒店的交通服务。这次包车的费用与单独预订私人车辆相当,但我们需要一辆能容纳10人的面包车。
算上门票费用后,总支出为1250美元——因为所有孩子身高都超过了120厘米,必须购买全价票。这个金额看起来很多,乍一看确实如此。不过,这个价格与普吉岛上许多其他旅游项目的费用差不多。60岁以上的老人可享受优惠价。
上午9点,我们在卡伦的酒店处被接上,9点40分抵达公园,而公园的开放时间为上午10点。不过,这也让我们能够确认在线预订信息、领取腕带以及红色的“计时器式”腕部标识,还能拿到毛巾等物品。需要注意的是,很多入场套票的价格并不包含毛巾租赁服务。老年人入场套票则包含一条毛巾和一瓶水。
我们的别墅就在主造浪池和美食广场的旁边,位置堪称完美。
我们拥有专属的阳台,可以俯瞰造浪池;房间里还配有保险箱、卫生间和淋浴设施。配有空调的休息室里有一个小冰箱,里面装满了软饮料和几瓶矿泉水。我们还收到了一大盘小吃,包括春卷、三明治以及其他各种美味佳肴。如果在人多的时候去,这个费用绝对物有所值;要是结伴同行的人数较多,那就更值得了。
水滑梯是这里最大的亮点,大部分滑梯都非常适合孩子们玩,就连像我们这样的老年人也能尽情享受。这些滑梯的刺激程度从1级到5级不等。我们体验了几乎所有的游乐项目,每一个都棒极了。
工作人员也超棒。每个活动区域都有救生员,还有导游和其他工作人员确保游客的安全。
我们去过亚洲的其他水上乐园,就工作人员的服务水平、游乐项目的质量以及安全性而言,这家绝对是最好的。另外,由于公园才建成四年,所有的游乐设施和设备都保持着极佳的状态。这个造浪池对我们一家来说极具吸引力,因为它就在我们别墅的旁边。能够体验到人工制造的1-2米高海浪真是令人兴奋不已。不过,虽然那天是工作日,造浪池里有时还是挤满了人。
我们在度假村里的餐厅点了午餐和饮料,然后带回别墅享用。这里的餐饮价格虽比街边摊贵一些,但远远低于酒店的价格。比如,一份泰式炒河粉售价227泰铢,一大罐 Chang啤酒则是180泰铢。我们安排了下午6点半的返程接送服务,这再合适不过了。有几项游乐项目在下午6点就停止营业了,而整个乐园则在晚上7点关门。不过每个人都度过了极其愉快的一天。
如果你想在安全无忧的环境下尽情享受各种精彩的水上活动,我强烈推荐这个极棒的乐园。你也可以选择花费较少的费用,只租一个小型遮棚,甚至不租也行——在浪花池和儿童专区周围有数不清的私人休息区(顺便说一句,儿童专区也相当棒)。
下次再来普吉岛时……你真的应该在这里待上一整天。太棒了!!
