We went a few days ago and although the kids had a good time and the boomerang slide is awesome, the rest of the park is a little ho hum.... it could do with more activities and a bit more atmosphere
also i found the floor extremely dangerous with wet feet and was a little worried about that.
I was satisfied with the day though until we went to leave and I went to buy some second visit passes for the 4 of us and I met probably the rudest Balinese employee i've ever met, she refused to sell them to me without seeing my wife, well ofcourse she was up with the kids in the gift shop at that point and getting a pram with a 13 month old back down is impossible so i said ok I will go get her and the kids can wait a minute, she came down, the lady said 'ok' and my wife went back to watch the kids in the gift shop, then half way through the lady goes 'where your wife?' i explained she was up at the gift shop, she proceeded to then put the tickets away and said I cannot buy them unless she can sign for her ticket. There was no talking sense into this woman.... I was happy to sign for all 4 but the attitude on her was appauling.. I ended up walking away and putting the whole experience in the too hard basket
Anyway, minor thing but at the end of the day, when I was only barely satisfied with the day (And an expensive one at that), it tipped me over the edge to thinking i'd much rather keep $150 in my pocket next time and the kids can just play in the pool at the hotel.
The second day passes are good value though for only about $11 per person you get to go back, if you are allowed to buy them that is...
