Wet 'n' Wild Hawaii

We purchased the Kahuna season pass for $59 when they had a new year special. The pass comes with a free refillable cup ($4 for soda refills, discounts on cabana rentals, free flo rider, free tickets in certain months, and free parking. For my family of four, we determined that we just need to go every month to make up the cost of the tickets to cover just the parking! Which is $20 if you purchase it in person when you get there!The water park has a handful of slides that in January are on rotating schedules. So the one you want to ride on may be closed during part of the day. They also have a ride that is shut down currently. There are two kids areas, one for littles and the other for bigger kids. The height your kid needs to be is at least 42 inches to ride a water slide outside of the Keiki area. There are only two slides and for some reason we always come when only one is open. The next height requirement is 48". So if you have little ones who like to play in the kids area or swim in the wave pool it's ok. January is cold (yes the water is COLD) so I recommend the summer time at least for warmer waters and open rides. The food is ok, but expensive. And they don't let you bring outside food, just water jugs like yeti or Stanley. But you can go out to your and have a picnic in the parking lot and come back in so that is a way to save money! If you are kamaaina and plan to visit more than 3 times in a year, the annual membership is a must!

My kids really like coming here on a hot day. And being that this is Hawaii, every day is pretty much a hot day. The location is not terribly convenient for me because I live in town and the waterpark is located in Kapolei. However, there are a lot of things nearby like Ka Makana Alii and Costco. So there's a lot of other things we can do in Kapolei in addition to going to the waterpark.I got the Kamaaina season passes, which were a great deal. It was about $59.99 per person for unlimited visits, and came with free parking. Given that parking cost $20 a day, getting the season passes were totally worth it. However, if it wasn't for the season pass deal, I'm not sure this waterpark would be worth it.The main highlights, for my kids are the Ohana highway waterslide, the play areas, and the big wave pool. They can have hours of fun in these attractions. And since I have the season passes, we can come here for a few hours and leave before they are too tired. The food here is rather overpriced, but that's not the main problem for me. It's that the lines for the food can be really really long. I'm not looking to wait 20 minutes in line to order and another 20 minutes to get the food. I would recommend bringing your own food and leaving it in the car . You can go in and out of the waterpark and get a meal done in half the time.The park also has a bar for the adults. So that's a nice option if the day with the kids is stressing you out. Lol. The bathrooms are quite large, but not the cleanest. The showers only have cold water so the kids do not like rinsing off there. Usually we just change clothes and go home to shower. What's nice though is that they have a lower sink for disabled persons as well as small children.An issue I have with this park is that the Ohana Highway waterslide is often out of order. I get that it goes out of order because of the mechanism required to bring the large float up to the top. However, it is broken at least half the time that I go. Unfortunately, that is one of the only waterslides that my youngest son is able and willing to ride.In any event, I probably will be a season pass holder here for the foreseeable future and look forward to my next weekend there!

Haven't been here in years. A lot has changed since. And the change wasn't so pleasant...Seems like all the workers are all teenagers. Some are really nice and professional and some very sassy and unprofessional. There was a weight limit of 250lbs on one ride just heads up. Lazy river is filled with trash and debris.Food workers were nice it was just kinda irritating that you had to wait in line to order the food then go wait in another line to give your receipt to another worker for them to make your order. The area that used to have the big lily pads is gone. Replaced with another toddler splash area and a weird platform area to lounge. The wave pool didn't make waves the whole day we were there. (Saturday) When you walk in they check your bags. I read on their website that no food was allowed but they accept people with diabetes. Which I was happy to see. Little did I know, they had limitations. I notified the worker that we had 3 diabetics in our group and 2 of them fragile. Showed them where the needles and emergency snacks(gummies) would be. The worker told me what I packed was too much and was "too excessive." (It was a small waterproof pouch) I told her I was happy to explain my children's illness to her boss. I know type 1 diabetes isn't known by all and was happy to explain their life and death conditions. . She didn't not care at all and told me to just hide it and not let her boss see and swooshed us away. I just left it at that. That whole exchange was uncomfortable

Parking lot: it's pretty huge. If you have the kahuna or gold pass parking is free but if not you'll have to pay $20Place: So we decided to go here I believe on a holiday & my dad rented out a cabana that was $320 & to be honest it was not worth it. Don't get me wrong it's a nice view we had of the wave pool & we were infront of the screen playing a movie. It was a pretty hot day. We had breeze here & there but my son that's 10 months was a bit sweating. Come to find out the fan doesn't work at all(the employee said it's not working) wow really? & the picture shown that it supposed to have the curtain screens but no none of that too. Food:We got a cooler that had I believe 4 waters & a small container of fruits.When we ordered food tell me why when it got to us it was cold. The foods pricey but don't offer to have us order from the cabana if the food is gonna come cold & the drinks the ice was almost gone. It had so much flys flying around that if they had that screen curtain that would have help a whole lot.The renovation they did on the pool that had the lily pads & the big green slide is a BIG down. That around is just sad. The deepest is ankle. Should've kept the old one.

Took my grandson here on a busy Sunday and the place was packed. Noticed it was mostly empty on weekdays . Don't get why they charge tourists so much for parking and entry fees. Unimpressed with the slides and facilities for the amount the charge. Did appreciate they had lots of security and lifeguards around that were nice people.

Park employees nicePark rides goodFood windjammer: Two of us Got sick stomachDon't buy food served stale bread old cold rubber patty taste horrible$13.99 for burger or hotdog meal $6.99 for burger separate Serving crappy sickening food while restricting no bringing in your own food

Went to Wet 'n' Wild Adult Night. It happened to be their casino night. z you could ride all the rides and they have their concession stand open. We used their locker, got the small one for $13. The larger one is $18. The lockers were good since you can come and go as you please to get your things. Very worth it to not have to worry about carrying your things around all over the place. We purchased the VIP tickets for this adult night, which cost regular $70 but we got it at a 50% off special. We received towels with neon glow-in-the-dark glasses, a stick, ring, and bracelets. We got 2 complimentary drinks (either a 12oz Vizzy or 16oz beer cans or both tickets for one cocktail). For me personally it is more bang for the buck to get the beer. We watched the people on thelagoon. They had a foam bath area. Everyone was having a lot of fun. They had a DJ from FM102.7 playing music. We ended up playing at the blackjack table for a couple hours. We had so much fun! The staff was awesome, we were greeted with smiles and great service

I can understand the low ratings, but at the same time, having a water park on island that doesn't require a long drive for most people is pretty sweet, especially if you have kids and a pass - you'll make your money worth it.However, if you only get a single day admission, it's hella expensive ($40-50 pp?) plus $20 for parking too, eek.I love how they have 2 areas for keiki, one is the bigger water slide area, the other is the playground area. I also enjoyed the adult slides with friends. It's fun and we felt safe enough.I'm not sure how clean the water is, but so far knock on wood, everyone has been okay.Don't forget to get their dipping dots! It's always the highlight of the visit haha.My one big complaint is the upkeep of the bathroom, or the lackof... Some locks were broken, some doors didn't have hooks, some faucets didn't work, the floor was constantly dirty and wet with hair, yuck. If you compare this place with the waterparks in mainland then you'll definitely be disappointed. However, for a local with an annual pass, I'm just grateful this place exists to let us cool off from the summer heat with kids!

"The annual pass is very reasonably priced. We now visit at least once a month, and just two visits cover the cost for the entire year. Plus, each membership includes a buddy pass and a refillable cup, which adds extra value compared to purchasing regular items. Our daughter truly enjoys this place--while Aulani is her favorite, this is her second favorite water destination!"

Porsche-Che and family would like to thank everyone at Wet'n'Wild for helping her celebrate her 5th birthday! We had an amazing day and everyone and everything was awesome! We will definitely be back soon!
