After being severely disappointed by Elitch Gardens as an avid theme-park lover, I am very glad I…read morefound this place! We've been here twice now and I can honestly say this is the best water park I've been to. First of all, it is SO CLEAN! No trash, no bugs, nothing -- it's honestly shocking. Secondly, it's massive! There are so many slides here and it's a great place for adults and kids, since they have different levels of thrill. Additionally, the slides are pretty unique! There are several slides with immersive theming that we were very impressed by. They do have your standard slides, but if you are looking for something more unique they have that too! Both times we've come here was on a weekend and we've never had a problem finding chairs or waiting in lines for food. This past time we went we got the tube valet and it was 100% worth it. If you are on the fence about it, I would highly recommend it. It's way less wait times and you don't have to carry your tube up the big hills. Additionally, as someone who is very sensitive to heat, this was a game changer for me. I would not visit Water World again without this purchase! They also let you bring in your own food and drinks in a cooler, which is very rare to find at any kind of theme park these days. In my experience, the food and drink available for purchase was pretty reasonable for a theme park, not overly expensive. Overall, we really enjoyed our time here and will absolutely be back.

It was easy to get an accessible ride pass, although one of our kids was disappointed with the lack of accessible rides in the waterpark. The biggest issue was that all of the food places in the park closed right at dinner time, starting at 5:30pm, with no warning. We ended up running around all over the park before finding the last place open, but they didn't have enough food left to serve our whole group.

I was nervous after reading about how they can reach capacity quickly. We found a shaded spot in the lawn near the baby pool. Music was great the water was warmer than I expected which was wonderful. If we lived here I'd come every week!

Came in with some friends to utilize the open tot gym. What a great idea!…read more There is so much for the kids to do/play with! They can run around and because it's in the gym, it is so easy to keep track of them. There are bleachers to sit at and watch or you can go play on the floor with the kiddos. $3 to let my kiddo run around and wear herself out for a couple of hours? Absolutely worth it!

What a great facility! We recently brought my little one to the indoor pool and had a great time…read more It's got a play structure for toddler-aged kids, a decent sized lazy river (especially for being indoors!), and a fun water slide! The locker rooms were also a good size, and we really appreciated the family locker room option. Well worth the admission price for an afternoon swim in my opinion! :)

The interiors are very in line with the natural landscapes. We got a beautiful mountain facing room on the 15th floor. It was the highlight of my trip!! They had room service everyday. Besides offering a plethora of choices for nice restaurants and bars, they have a really cool temperature controlled indoor and outdoor pool with a lazy river and multiple hot tubs for soaking. The relache spa is located right next to The fitness center overlooking the pool. The spa is a MUST!!! I learned during my stay that if you are a gold or above status with Marriott, you have free access to the spa amenities without having to actually book an appointment. The amenities include a steam room, cold plunge shower and a relaxing lounge area within the spa. It was my second trip to this property, a lot has been updated since my 1st. Can't wait to be back.

Bed Bug PSA: I…read morewanted to put this PSA out there for anyone staying at Gaylord Rockies. My family and I started our mini summer vacay there on Saturday May 30 and we woke up to bed bugs in our room Sunday morning. I have been a loyal Marriott member, so I scooped up the bug in a cup with water, brought it to the front desk and assumed since the rooms are over $500 a night that we would be taken care of and treated with dignity and respect. We were not. The manager (Alex) refused to speak to me twice and sent the security manager (Antwan) to deal with me instead. He essentially said I can't be sure it was a bed bug but that he was sure it was a tick from my dog. When I asked for the bug back to consult a pest control professional he lied and said it was sent to their engineer to give to their ecolab team. When I asked them to bring up the engineer and asked him for the bug he was honest and up front that management would not provide it to him. The security manager then had to admit that the disposed of the live bed bug I gave to them. So I brought up a dead one that was on the desk in our room and he crumpled it up in the paper I provided, turned it to dust, and then put the paper and dead bug remains in his pocket. We obviously cut our stay short and left the same day, but I know not everyone has that option. So for any of you staying, please do not make the same mistake I made in trusting the Marriott name. If you find a bed bug, follow these instructions and DO NOT SURRENDER YOUR PROOF BECAUSE THEY WILL DESTROY IT: You are legally entitled to a full refund if a hotel room has bed bugs. Because hotels are required to maintain basic hygiene, most properties will refund your stay rather than risk a bad review, a lawsuit, or a health department investigation. The most effective way to secure a refund and protect yourself involves taking a few critical steps: 1. Gather Immediate Evidence Before moving or unpacking, take clear, well-lit photos and videos of the bugs, your bites, and the mattress seams. If possible, trap a specimen in a sealed bag or container. Without clear proof, staff may mistakenly attribute your bites to mosquitoes or other insects. 2. Secure Your Luggage Bed bugs can easily travel home in your suitcases. Move your bags away from the bed and upholstered furniture, and seal anything that was exposed in plastic bags. 3. Demand a Refund and Relocation Notify management, present your evidence, and demand an immediate, full refund for your room. Request to be moved to a clean room, but do not assume a neighboring room is entirely safe, as infestations often spread. 4. Escalate to Corporate or Dispute the Charge If the local hotel management refuses to issue a refund, contact the corporate customer service line.

I had to physically call to add more than one person to my household. More of an inconvenience but not straight forward to know to do that..so heads up!

And 2 big adult pools as well! They also have "adult nights" which looks like a fun date night or hangout time with friends! They do have cabanas that you can rent..
