KeyLime Cove indoor waterpark is fun for everyone in the family. We specialize in wearing out the kids so everybody gets a good night’s sleep. But should the family ever tire of the waterpark, that’s okay. It’s only the beginning of the fun at KeyLime Cove…
We went here with are family and had a great time. They really know how to entertain the kiddos. The kids loved the dance party at night and the kid area with coloring and games too
there is no need to leave the place once you check in and you can pretend you are on a tropical getaway. We loved everything from the kids club to the water park to the food! definitely recomend it!
I took my sons in august for a three day mini vacation.. they loved it. We went during the week because it was cheaper and a lot less traffic. The place was clean and I loved the life jackets. The rooms were spacious and the kids enjoyed the arts and crafts.. we can't wait to go back.. there is a target and walmart near by so after I saw the fridge I went out and purchased some healthier snacks for my boys.. it saved money ...
We love it here! We go here at least once a year! We try & celebrate our son's birthday here instead of having a party (he loves it!) Last year we showed up on a sunday & stayed til tuesday, it was empty!!! By the time we left, everyone who worked there knew our kids! The hotel & pool area is so nice & clean. The food isn't all that but the breakfast was good, especially when they have the buffet. Other than that, bring your own snacks or go out to eat (there's so many places around the hotel).
This is the first indoor waterpark we took our 4 year old to. She had a good time. We especially liked that the area for small kids was separate and gated. However, it was very pricey and the service was unbelievably slow. The line to check in was literally out the door. When we finally did get our wristbands/room keys they didn't work and we had to go back downstairs and wait again for someone to fix it.
It also got VERY crowded on Saturday with many people jostling each other in the wave pool, trying to grab floats for the lazy river- not a fun thing to try and do with a 4 year old clinging to you.
For the amount of money we spent I think we'll look elsewhere next time.
We really like Keylime Cove. We have gone several times with our three kids (ages 6-1) and it is always fun. My only complaints are 1.) the food options really are bad, just a few healthy options would be nice 2.) There is no Pay Per View!!! When our kids go to bed we are stuck in the hotel room and we cannot watch a movie - you would think this would be a no brainer money maker for the hotel also!
Otherwise it's great - I especially love the wrist bands that serve as keys!!
We had a ball at Keylime Cove , my grandsons are fish out of water, swim and splash is the name of thier game, They loved the last Birthday weekend we were there for a splash party because our guy was born in December, It is florida sometimes . YOU WILL HAVE A BALL.
I love this place! There are so many activities for all ages throughout the day. Each day is a different experience so you don't get bored quickly. I love how your wristbands give you access to your rooms and you can also have your credit card linked to it. The water park is big enough for the kids to play without getting lost. The only problem I have is the cost. The rooms and the food is a little expensive.
Was ok. The resort fee is ridiculous, and unavoidable. The kids enjoyed the park but think for the same (or less, depending on deals you can get) amount you can go to the dells and get so much more. We always go in winter.
We went with my inlaws and SIL with niece and nephew. We had a two room suite along with a regular room. The suite was nice-sink, small refrig and table to sit at, along with a small living room area. two bathrooms with a king size bed plus another room with two queens. The place was VERY PRICEY plus the lines for slides were really long. They do have a kids area where you can do crafts but most of them they charge. I think I will make a little longer trip and head to WI next time.
We took my son here last year for his 5th birthday..he loved it! We purchased couples massages and thought they were kinda pricey. Food wasn't all that good. Next time we go, I would rather just go to a restaurant close by as there are soo many to choose from.
THIS IS GREAT MY KIDS LOVE IT THEY ASK ALL THE TIME IF THEY COULD GO BACK!!! WHEN WE WENT THEIR WAS A LADY DOING FREE FACE PAINTING WE ARE PALNNING TO GO BACK AT THE END OF THIS MONTH FOR THEIR BIRTHDAYS THIER A WEEK APART AND I THINK THAT WOULD BE THAN A TOY THAT THEY WILL PROBABLY BREAK THE SAME DAY AND I KNOW THEY WONT FORGET THE EXPERIENCE!
