Playland Sausalito

Flabbergasted by all these 5 star reviews...? I've been to many Playland's in the greater Bay Area and I have to be brutally honest, this Playland in Sausalito, California is by far the worst.I traveled all the way to Playland Sausalito from the South Bay with my 5 year old son for my cousins 5 year old son's birthday party. Upon exiting and making a left her and a left there I found myself driving through an old, dusty, shoddy, dirt road, with barrack style bungalows up into an old, spooky gymnasium. I'm assuming they're using 'Playland' in the school's old gymnasium. Is the school still open? I do not know, but from the looks of it, I doubt it. Just looked run down and unkept to be actually open on a day-to-day basis. I'm giving Playland Sausalito a 1 star review because mostly everyone from my cousins party ended up catching either the flu or some variation of the stomach bug that's been going on. Depending on if you were an adult or a child that kind of dictated your symptoms. After calling and asking around if anyone else from the party got sick I was not surprised to hear that, yes other people in attendance got sick. In addition to getting sick, the overall venue was kind of run down and seemed like it's on it's last leg. A few inflatables, a few balls to kick around, 2 pop-a-shot basketball hoops (one didn't work), and a cold gloomy atmosphere. Nice! I understand what Playland Sausalito is trying to do in terms of providing a safe fun-filled place for children to have parties and hang out with friends and family but if children and adults are getting sick than that's defeating the purpose. Maybe it was a one time thing or others have gotten sick at this establishment but I think lack of attention to detail, sanitary practices, and overall kind of just a dingy, ordinary, throw a few balls and inflatables in here and call it a 'Playland' is lame and dangerous. Also, when I called Playland to ask a question as to if they are open or not? (says they are closed on Yelp unless it's a private party), the guy that answered the phone said "Hello".. LoL, not "Thank you for calling Playland how can I help you" so I had to ask the guy "Is this Playland?". Not professional dude.In hindsight, as I was oblivious of what was to come the days after the party, I made a comment to my cousin that they were having another party right after us and I didn't see them doing any kind of sanitary wipe downs or anything. Yikes!In conclusion, I probably won't be coming back again and if you were thinking on planning a party for your little one here, I'd look around some more for I'm sure there are other venues that offer more bang for your buck. Do I recommend, No.

The best place for a party. The staff were so helpful. Inside was great with the different activities.The parks outside were a lot of fun.

Great place to wear out the kids! Also perfect venue for bday parties for kids under 6. Summer camps too! Check it out...

Best $14 ever spent! It's even a little less expensive for residents of Sausalito! Highly recommend for your toddlers. Parents, grandparents, caregivers are diligent in keeping an eye on their little ones as sometimes the older kids can get a little bossy as kids do. But they also learn in the process. Staff is great and they slow it down with music , balloons and other more quiet activities about midway through the morning. Bounce houses, slide, basketball and toys are terrific, along with the train room. Highly recommend. Get there at 9am and stay till noon. Free Peet's coffee and tea for the grownups. Great for birthday parties!

Unruly kids running amuck and this guy's supposed to be overseeing things: kids blocking the slides, kids going up the slides, kids throwing balls at each other while on the slide, mini basketballs available for the basketball games. Oh, they're being used to be thrown at kids on the slide, that's right.

It's ok for a visit, but not a place I would go regularly with my 2.5 year old. Went for first time to a birthday party, so there was some added activities.

$10 per child above 1y... Or you can buy a book of passes.Jumpy CastlesHuge Air Slide4 Air hockey tablesPush cars and other toddler itemsCoffee and teaTables for snack time.Playland does Birthday Parties, Summer Camps and Classes too.Overall it is a great place to get wiggles out on a rainy cold day.The staff is accommodating and friendly. While the price feels a little high for us, We really hope they succeed. Our children had a blast at Playland!

This is a great place to be when your gets get a little 9ut of hand. But it is great for kids to get their energy THANK YOU PLAYLAND!

all the little kids running around. eweeee. dirty smelly diapers greeted me. rug rats with snotty noses. enough to make me throw up in disgust. oldest child of mine hates the place. youngest child of mine was hit in the face by a child not mine and the child's mommy was apologetic. good place for birthday parties. good place for bratty kids to act out. only brave parents bring their kids to this place. disgusting little brats are sure to have a good time while their parents watch in complete disgust.

Coach Jeremy hosted a flag football party for my sons birthday last weekend. He was great with the kids, came prepared with all the supplies, and was communicative and in touch before the event regarding the details. The kids had a blast, and he brought a football for all the kids to sign for my son as a memento. I would definitely hire him again, and will be checking out his other programs and camps!!
