What parents say
"Family friendly park that you can spend the whole day relaxing at. They have numerous slides and lounging areas. Alcohol is available for purchase. The main slide shoots you 20 ft in the air! Day pass was 250 MXN and the lockers are 70 MXN. During the week it's rather chill, it gets super busy on the weekends and parking can be a mess"

There are plenty of places to buy food (see pictures) food was really good. you can rent a donut floater for $70 pesos. There is a lot to do in this place.
