Adventure Island - Tampa, Florida

Great waterpark! Very large and many slides options. A few were closed at first but opened up as the crowds grew. Rip off for parking at $37. Nice displays to take pics of. Ticket prices are worth it on a good weather day. Wave pool was like ice. The general pool was heated and nice. Slides and lazy river were average temp. Very expensive food. $17 sandwiches, $10 kids meals and soft pretzels. Sneak in your own snacks and drinks, just not in a cooler. They don't check. Seemed very clean. No towels provided. They do have life vests. Nice kids area.

What a blast. We had ordered our cabana for the wrong day went to guest services. Where we had Holly said she can change it to the right day. She did everything she was able to as she needed a manager to help and so June the supervisor with great customer service helped and made sure we were taking care of. We had a great time and we owe it to the two people that helped us and made sure we did. Thanks for the great experience we will definitely be back.

First time at the water park Took the family along with a family friend got there at 10:00 am. My wife got us a cabana for our day ahead of time. Check in and was taken to our Cabana we got settled in for the day. We started our day off good not much of a wait on any rides at all we got to ride about 4 rides and did a few other little things. So great first half of our day and we were all good. Now let the shit show start for the rest of the day. The app did not work for us to order lunch from the cabana we was never told at the time of check in that it was not available and we did not get our bands to us in the park to buy things. So we go over to the BBQ place for lunch and it was $110.00 fine with that and it is expected to pay more for your food at places like this. But the Quality was not there for the cost. Chicken was dried out on the Caesar salad and there was a lot of spices on all the meats and the Fountain machines were not working. Now it is about 1:30 after lunch so we said let’s go on more rides and man that was a bad ideal. All of a sudden the park was was full of teens and now they our Fighting and they shut the park down at 4:00 pm and told people to leave. now we have cops on site and a bird in the sky over the park.They need to have a police present or more than two security guards present on site to Monitor and keep the problems out of the park so family’s can enjoy there day and not have to listing to or be subjected to this type of behavior from the teens that have no intention of using the park for what it is meant for. They our there just to start trouble with others and think it is ok to ruin other family’s day at the water park that paid a lot of money to enjoy and make memories with their loved ones. Adventure Islands needs to do better and make changes for family to spend there money at there water park.

I’ve been coming here for decades, and it just keeps getting better! The new Castaway Falls is awesome! I loved it and my 11 year old wanted to spend most of the day there. Quick queue is totally worth it if it's less than $50 for the day. We got it for $30 on a Friday towards the end of summer, and probably skipped 3-4 hours of lines.

We had a really great time, came in as soon as they opened, had a lot of options for slides i have a boy who is 42” and we were able to slide on all of it! Mid day got so packed thankfully we went early and enjoyed it with less lines!! We went on a saturday morning. Food was okay! We had burger and fries, chicken tenders and Nuggets! Not bad at all! However if you are a big soda fan you have to purchase the Unlimited, if you purchase the single one there is a barcode attached to it & it will not let you refill it. They have a machine to scan barcodes. I would recommend chairs around Shakka Lakka we had the most shade & close to food and Restroom! Reaally fun place! Our favorite ride was solar Vortex, you either ride 2 person or 4 person. I had to ride with another family , because there was only 3 of us, but it was really fun!!

It is absolutely insane how many bad reviews the park has lately, they must change management and retrain their staff to offer an actual customer service experience.

Me and my family visited the park on March 15, 2025. Regrettably, the customer service did not meet our expectations. I want to specifically address our interaction with MELISSA, who claimed to be the supervisor, which was below the standards we expected. I tried to cancel my two platinum memberships after redeeming my last guess tickets I had available, she literally refused to do it and told me if I cancel them, she will not let me in to the park, I couldn’t believe it, but she did, after I asked her if that was even legal, she abused of her "power" and without any proof of any wrong behavior, she had security rejecting me and my whole family off the park claiming being a private property. I asked several times for explanations and/or evidence of what we could've done wrong, but she never showed her face again.
It is crucial to address these issues to ensure an improved experience for future guests.
I recommend considering a suspension or reassignment for her position.

Thank you for your prompt attention to this matter.

I wished to put -1 star.

We had a really great time, we had to wait awhile to get back in the water after some storms, but the staff was friendly and helpful. The ground does get hot, so bring shoes suitable to wear while walking from place to place. My almost 2 year old loved the pools and kid areas, as well as the lazy river. I'd go on a weekday to avoid huge crowds.
