Water parks near me in the Philly area are usually huge, with major traffic, and thereby annoying…read moreand gross! I was so relieved to find Summer Waves offers a smaller, cleaner, more-personal, less-dangerous water park experience. We found it to be exactly that. Though Jekyll is close to a tropical climate, the water park is only open in warmer months (May-Sept). Inclement weather is an issue in their part of the country at that time of year. At least a month of the time Summer Waves is open is hurricane season. There are clear rain policy rules, which kinda stink but are for everyone's safety. One day we called to verify they were open only to show up TEN MINUTES LATER and be turned away at the gate due to thunderstorms. Luckily we were staying 5min away but can you imagine driving farther? And paying $10 island toll for that? The next day weather was great and my husband and son had a ball. They'd planned to stay 2 hours but lasted 6! My 7yo was a little intimidated by the enclosed taller slides but he got over it after trying them and they covered every attraction in the park except the baby/toddler stuff. They did the lazy river over and over! I saw pictures/reviews of the traffic and chaos in July, wow! Go in late August (when local kids are back to school and the park is only open weekends) and it's perfect! They waited 5min at most, and that happened once. It was just step up and go! It's not huge but it's up-to-date, clean, uncrowded at the right times, and very reasonably priced under $30pp. No bugs (Jekyll has a huge dragonfly population to rid pesty bugs), good breeze on most days. Make sure to reapply sunscreen. My son got burnt for the first time in his life despite full application of spf 25 (which kept him white as a sheet for weeks prior on Jekyll's beaches), but the park uses salt water and is very exposed to the sun so take heed. All in all a great experience!

They had your traditional fair rides with one I hadn't seen before an army helicopter ride! Maybe a recruitment tool? There were games of chance to win stuffed animals, etc. The animals all looked good and healthy; the young folk who entered them all were proud of their animals..nice fair.

Very well thought out and everything was constructed with good quality. The attention to detail was next level. Loved it! Actually looking forward to coming back to try the other rooms.

I bought the Platinum Pass and it came with unlimited go-karts and mini golf for 3 hours which was a really good deal and made for a great time. This place honestly would have been a 5/5 but they definitely nickel and dime you on everything. I was especially shocked when I found out there were no drink refills. Other than that I really didn't have any complaints. Maybe they should consider offering something like a $15 unlimited drink option especially on hot days like today. Overall I still had a great time and I'll definitely be back but next time I'm bringing my own water source lol.

They don't tell you that when you arrive. Many of the working machines had cracked plastic and impact damage, that's gone unrepaired for years. The arcade is a dump, don't waste your time and money. Maybe the go karts are good (we didn't do them). Planning to do Dave & Busters from now on.

Bryon always got back to me quickly with answers to my questions. My vacation was heavenly! I will definitely be cruising again and use Bryon to handle the details.

Not only was the hotel super clean and nice, the kids loved the breakfast (so convenient and saved me even more $) and the cost was very reasonable (less than I was hoping to pay!) The best part was, I didn't have to go searching, reading reviews, looking at maps for proximity, etc. So convenient and a wonderful service that didn't cost me anything extra... It actually saved me money as it was less than I was planning to pay! Thanks again! Bryon also just booked a cruise for a HUGE group of us to celebrate my brother's 40th Birthday! Can't wait for the trip and thankful I didn't have to plan any of that either!! Highly recommend!

Nor did I realize most of the dark rides across the whole world are created and developed here! It was amazing!! Our tour guide led us through the building while showing us all of the stages of creating an epic dark ride. This made me think about amusement parks in a whole different way. The tour was about an hour and was very informative. We asked lots of questions and met people from different departments along the way. Highly recommend booking a free tour and checking this out. It would be great for kids as well!

He originally wanted to visit a much smaller place in Orlando, which is a one man operation charging $375. It was a bit too far and too expensive for what it was so I decided to do my own research of places he would love, Sally Corporation became the place. I filled out the reservation form online and was told there were no spots available during our time in Florida. I couldn't take no for an answer. I emailed back explaining how much my son wants to be a Robotics Engineer and that we would wait as long as we needed to snag a spot. We got an email back the next day that two spots opened up!!! We made our way downtown and parked for free in the back. We entered to learn that the tour was also FREE...FREE! This facility is HUGE! They are arguably the largest producer of Dark Ride Amusements in the US and don't just make the robotic aspect of the animatronics, but they handle EVERY aspect of the creation and completion. From make up, costumes, design, voices, all of that! We were thrilled to see they had a...yep...FIVE NIGHTS OF FREDDY'S attraction! If you've ever been to he Ripley's in San Antonio, you will see one of their biggest sellers there, a ginormous T-Rex, that's their baby that sells for $90,000! The tour takes you to each department and you are truly immersed in their production. It is an working operation so you get to see the people behind the scenes at work, which was SO DAMN INSPIRING for my 11 yo who has told me for 4 TM years that this is what he wants to do in life. He got to see what his future could be like, which is absolutely priceless. The staff, facilities, location, displays, animatronics, all were 5 stars! Hands down a MUST when in Jacksonville! Come for a 10 or 11am tour and then take the FREE Skyway (Tram) to Hemming Park and Check our Sweet Peet's. Your kids will have the best day ever!
