"Stick to opening hours"

Family of 4 visited here for the first time and it was very quiet so we were able to walk on everything and had a great time. They have some fantastic slides which we loved. You can't take your own food & drink in and the food was so expensive in there. You do get a lot though (too much) so just buy something between two of you. What was annoying, whilst we understand closing a park temporarily for inclement weather, this happened in the afternoon and everyone was happy and sheltered. The sun came back out and rides reopened then all of a sudden at 2.45pm they announced they were closing for the day which was disappointing. Some people had not long arrived. We ended up in our hotel pool.

Do not go! The park is disgustingly dirty. The lazy river was murky with chunks of dirt and lots of rundown trash. So grossed out!
