    this was the 5th life guard to come up and be served even with a line of over 10-15 people waiting for their food.

    we have been waiting in line for almost 30 minutes waiting for our food. not only that but all these lifeguard who did not wait in line have all walked up to the window and picked up their food and have all been served first. and they did not have any pizzas and did not post it outside. i just do not understand prioritizing people that they are paying and not the people that have literally paid and waited in the long lines. Also to add that after waiting in line for the 30 minutes and we walked up to ask what was going on we were greeted with being told they lost our order and that they would add it back into the queue but not prioritize it even though it was their fault that lost it. another thing is in their lazy river there are almost no floaties and when you grab a floaty life guard start yelling at you for any little thing you do. we came here expecting a nice day away from the sun and honestly it is just a poop show. it's like the entire park is being ran by 5 year olds.

    My kids had a great time here! There is a Lazy River, 3 big water slides, a water park area, and kids pool and a big kid pool! My kids want to go back. They are ages 3 and 11. They do let some food in. The price is good for what they offer. I didn't try their food. The water didn't seem dirty to me and the entire area seemed clean! I will be going back :)

    Lazy river fun

    Warning. The water slides were closed and they did not disclose before purchasing tickets. Refused to refund

    I've been to this park enough for the years and it is a great local escape for the day! It's small…read moreand safe. There's some new shaded areas to rent which is nice. There's deals too if you check for them. We went do Father's Day and it was buy one ticket and dad gets in free. Lots of fun at the Wave! Yay!

    Hiya B.U.M.S.,…read more Another hot day in San Diego means time for the beach, the lake, or staying inside with the AC on full blast. Or, in our case, we chose to wrap up the summer fun with something simple, nice, and close to home--so we headed to The Wave Waterpark in Vista. This local staple has been around since before I can remember, and returning as an adult brings back a wave of nostalgia. We walked right in without any hassle, and the restrooms and showers near the entrance were fairly clean and convenient. We reserved a private cabana, which I highly recommend for a cool, hassle-free home base during a long day in the sun. There are four water slides and all of them are a blast, featuring clear intensity ratings on the signage so you know what you're getting into before heading up. My whole family loved every slide, though surprisingly, my son said his absolute favorite spot was simply splashing around in the main pool. While slide wait times were smooth and efficient, the line to snag a free single tube for the lazy river can get jammed. We rented a double tube and a single tube directly, which saved us a ton of extra waiting. Standard theme park fare like pizza and nachos are available, but the real winning treats to beat the heat were the Dippin' Dots and root beer floats. Overall, it's a fantastic, family-friendly spot to cool down and pack in some quick summer fun. Planning a trip to the wave? DM us @advntrbums or @advntrbums_mb to find out which cabana locations give you the best shade and prime view of the park.
