We had a kid's birthday here. I thought I would post some tips and suggestions in case someone else decides to do this. 1. Cabana. We originally rented the Pina Colada Rooftop Lounge because it was the largest space (up to 40 guests), but due to a construction scheduling issue they had to move us to the Sky Vista instead. Since the Sky Vista only allows 25 guests, they let us use both sides so it was actually a nice upgrade. The Sky Vista has nicer seating, TVs, fridges, and is a bit more isolated. For someone who wants a larger party (up to 50 people), I'm sure you could rent both sides of the Sky Vista and just move the dividers yourself. There's a water refill station and a restroom right beside the entrance to the stairs (note that these cabanas are only accessible by stairs). It's a fun location because you can watch the surfers wipe out from above. 2. Birthday Package. We also got the birthday party package for the kids. The food at Sharky's (conveninently adjacent to the party area) was waaaay better than the food I previously had at Beachview Snacks on a previous trip. Note that the birthday party package does not include any decorations or treat bags at all (unless you pay extra). It does include tubes and a meal at Sharky's though, so it's not bad. 3. Cake. For the birthday cake, your only option is Marble Slab. The waterpark will provide plates, napkins, and plastic cutlery if you ask. However, I would advice having the cake delivered 10 minutes before you actually intend to eat it. The cake was frozen rock-hard. Also, they had to have a staff member escort the knife that you use to cut the cake, so she was stuck there for 20 minutes while we waited for it to thaw enough to cut it. Really, as much as I love Marble Slab cake, it would be easier if they just had an option for regular cake. 4. Logistics. If you order a cabana, you can enter with your group through the priority entrance on the main floor. However, this can get a bit chaotic with a larger group. I would recommend starting your party at least 30 minutes, or maybe even an hours after the waterpark opens so you can enter and set up in advance before everyone gets there. (If you do this, double-check to make sure they will let you in without the rest of the party, though.) 5. Value. The kids loved this, even though it was a bit stressful for me...lol. I'm not sure if I would do it this way again - the waterpark was not overly busy so we probably could have just set up camp in one of the dining areas and not paid for the Cabana. It was definitely a nice experience, though.

There is no place like this in Canada as an indoor Waterpark adventure. We had the best time! It really felt like a summer vacation. We tried the zip line, flow rider, wave pool, and various water slides. Unfortunately we arrived too late ( 12 noon) we didn't have the chance to purchase tubes and they are good use for the wave pool and some water slides you would have to line up for so it helps skip the wait on the inflatable tubes they provide for those specific slides. So arrive at 10 am if that is something you are interested in. Staff at each station was very nice, and it was nice to see how LGBTQ2 friendly the staff was. The change rooms provide shelves for shoes in the entrance, lockers are $10 medium size and $15 for the large size per day. Towels are a $3 rental fee, so you won't have to worry about bringing your own towels. Do bring your own soap and shampoo items with you as they do not provide these items when rinsing off the chlorine. 3 hours was good enough for both of us to have an awesome time. We didn't like the fast food menu items, so we ended up exploring the food court in the mall instead.

I saw this place the first time I visited WEM, so I decided to give it a try, it didn’t fail me at all. The place is huge, nice and clean, the access is perfect, you can buy your tickets in advance so you can avoid the lines, lockers were clean, and well organized, the idea of a bracelet to open your locker is more than efficient and perfect, although the water has chlorine, is tolerable and understandable because of the amount of people in the park every day, the slides are just amazing, different levels for everyone, some of them were super intense and others were nice and calmer, facilities were in perfect conditions, and clean which leads me to the next point, staff members, everyone was nice from the entrance to the lifeguards and they gave you proper instructions for each attraction, and looked after if you have any situation. It is worth every cent you pay for. I definitely come back. ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

Busy for a weekday - you'll end up waiting in line (5-20 minutes) to go on a slide. The slides are fun! The changing room looks old and was dirty despite the pool just opening when we arrived. The wave pool is awesome, but you end up hitting other people as the waves carry you. Very expensive at $64 a person, and any add-ons like inflatable donuts or the zipline cost extra. For such a high price, it's time they modernize the surroundings. Alcohol should not be sold at a place like this.

Absolutely a must for young and old. Great fun for half or full day. The price is worth it as you get the wave pool and all the water slides. We tried them all! Favourites were the Cyclone, Sky Screamer and Nessie’s Revenge, looks scarier than it is. Two large hot tubs. No outside food but plastic water bottles are fine. Water refill station near the washrooms. Locker fee and wrist band issued on your credit card, as its cashless water park once you’re inside. Lounge chairs by the pool are free FCFS and cabana rentals available. Plenty of parking at the mall.

A large indoor water park is located in the shopping center. Friendly staff, large changing rooms (prices for a locker are overpriced). On a day off, there are many people, queues for the slides, jacuzzi. There are steep waves in the pool, but there are too many people, which can be dangerous. Sunbeds are mostly occupied.

One the most amazing water parks I have visited, well I was there on a weekday, first week of September pricesly, so there was no much crowd, had the opportunity to go on different rides, but the most important thing you must do is the zip line over the wavy water.....oh you will love it.....and don't forget to immerse yourself in the hot tub!!!

Good experience my kiddo and family had a great time with the wave pool and the water slides. Do not miss the zip line, it was fun 15$ spent. The changing rooms needs better maintenance, and the restaurants had long wait times. It's a one time visit for the experience, but good to have better preparation on food and clothes for families who visit the place with kids.

10 years ago, it was great! Not anymore.. Their pricing is too much! Plus you have to pay for everything; locker, swimsuit dryer, tubes etc. Maybe next time they'll charge you with the water you will accidentally drink while your swimming in the pool! Not worth the money!

We enjoyed our day in the park instalation. Good food, good atmosphere, it was not crowded (weekday). And they have a lot of rides. I will just say that needs a little of maintenance and updates, but nothing that will do the experience bad.
