Naples Balloon Glow - November 15, 2020…read more This was a great experience. We got there at 5pm sharp - to get something to eat and beat the crowd (great plan). There was a large selection of food choices (just no alcohol). If you're smart - bring your own chairs (but there are plenty of places to sit and eat). Also, bring bug spray. They started blowing up the balloons around 5:30 pm (still light out). By the time it's dusk, most of the balloons are up. At 7:00 pm, they do an "introduction" (over the PA system), telling you about each balloon's pilot. At the conclusion of the introductions, all the balloons light up at the same time - really cool. They do it again about 10-15 minutes later. Not sure if they do it again (I'm guessing they do) because we left at that time - around 7:30 pm. But they are open until 9:00 pm.

We were visiting family in Florida and decided to try Great Wolf Lodge for the first time. Overall,…read morewe had a good time and would definitely consider coming back if we're in the Florida area again! We booked two rooms, but unfortunately they weren't adjacent rooms, which was a little disappointing since we were traveling together as a family. Other than that, the resort itself is really nice and there are tons of activities for the kids, so there was always something to do. The water park isn't huge, but it's nice and there's plenty of seating. The outdoor area was probably one of my favorite parts, especially the jacuzzi. Coming from New York, we found it really strange seeing kids--even babies--in the jacuzzi because that's definitely not what we're used to back home! New York is VERY strict about those rules. One thing I will say is that the water park felt really far from the elevators, so be prepared for some walking, especially if you have little ones with you. As far as food goes, there aren't a ton of options. The restaurant was nice, and they also have a buffet, but we found it to be pretty expensive. There's also a food hall, but honestly, we weren't impressed with the food there. They do have a Dunkin', which was VERY popular, especially in the mornings. It was convenient and definitely one of the more affordable options. Another thing to know: with more than four people in our room, we only had one roll of toilet paper, so we had to call down for more. Not a huge deal, but definitely something housekeeping should keep in mind for larger families. One thing we REALLY appreciated was being able to bring in a soft cooler with drinks. That saved us quite a bit of money during our stay! Overall, everyone we encountered was pretty nice, the resort was clean and there were plenty of activities to keep the kids entertained. Since it was our first time, now we know what to expect for next time. I would come back--I'd just bring more of our own food and snacks because the food options weren't really our favorite. First time at Great Wolf Lodge Now we know for next time!

Ok so I read a few of the reviews regarding this place and had my concerns. The person who said it…read moresmelled of chemicals, I just have to state duh. I'd rather it smell like chemicals in an indoor water park than nothing and have mold everywhere. We came here for a 3 day 2 night vacation. When we first got here I was a little nervous this was going to be another like crappy hotel with attractions. The indoor was kept very clean. Again, I don't know if people came on off times but every time we walked in the main area it was kept clean and I watched the workers mop and vacuum constantly. The room was kept nice. However, the bed was ok and the pillows were too soft for me. I will say sleeping wasn't the best for me. They did have bunk beds for the kids which was nice. Nothing was luxurious in our room. Restaurants kinda lost a star for this place. Breakfast is definitely not worth 27 dollars. Thank god we bought the 20 dollar pre show tickets. It seemed like the food was fresh but wasn't the best foods. Juice was out of a machine. I'd say it was more like a 4. Dinner, we did at the fireside. Again, very expensive. The nachos were a miss we got last night. Just wasn't worth 20 dollars. They used chicken from their chicken meals. Fresh cut jalapeño corn etc. cheese was ehhh. The chicken wings were good. 20 dollars for 10. Again not great but good. The smokehouse burger was good. Not the best. Little much with the pork at the bottom. The chicken meal was good. That was tasty. But 27 dollars worth ? Ehhh. My wife got a Cobb salad that she said she liked. And I got a cheese burger last night which was good. Not great but good. The ice cream store was good. Worker didn't seem the happiest to be there. The waterslides were cool. I went on the single rider fast one. That thing cut my back up. My daughter used the kiddie slides for the entire time. The area was kept clean. I didn't like the lockers were paid to use. I figured you pay enough for the hotel they kinda should just give you a locker. Now to the other attractions. The arcade is small. There are chances to win tickets. The employee worked the arcade was Ray. Ray was a super star! I won't say what Ray did but it was very sweet for my daughter. Ray has people skills. Alex, who is the manager of attractions was also very nice. He also helped out and hooked it up. Alex was concerned for my families fun well being and he made sure we were taken care of. Susan, who is usually over bowling was over the slides. Susan hooked it up tremendously. She was nice, funny, and very outgoing. Susan shows why she cares about you. She gave us her last pass and didn't even bat an eye. This is why this place got a 5 and not a 4 star review. The employees ensured you were taken care of.

02 March 2026…read more A trip to the Zoo in Naples Florida. I took a few photos and some videos to take a peek so people would have an idea what's here and what's not here. Like Elephants, they are not here. Most of the animals were either hiding or sleeping. If not , they were eating. Took a boat ride across Lake Victoria and took some videos of monkeys caught out in the open. Of course they were monkeying around at the time. It's about a two hour tour to see everything, not that there are a lot of animals here but they are spread out. Well that's all folks ... until we meet again ... Happy trails to you.

Even the desk person was talking up a storm, it's just not good business, I was told the whole side of the gym and the Pit area floods from the rain and the canal that runs in the back, I get that cuz the parking lot was a literal food mess, And she said I'm very sorry you are here on wet gym day, what does this actually mean??? I'm distraught I will never go back, I do feel bad mostly for all the poor children who pay high prices for time in this gym, I think it's extremely unsanitary for children & will probably file a complaint To the owners of the building etc, I personally think they are hiding a lot here and it's sad, the people working here absolutely don't like their job and make it obvious. After looking close after the fact ugg at the reviews... they are mostly from bots or not real, not hard to cross reference these days,

Our daughter was so excited to attend summer camp at Gymnastics World Naples. Unfortunately, on Day…read moreOne, a bully in her class began to torment her and the other students, pulling chairs out from under children, stealing lunches and hitting the other children. Our daughter asked the instructor to intervene, but she refused to resolve, saying the bully had a learning disability so there was nothing they could do. We have a zero tolerance policy for bullying - everyone should. Since the instructors were not going to provide adult supervision, we immediately contacted the owner to let her know we cannot attend the camp. She agreed and said that she also did not tolerate bullying, but she would not refund us or resolve the situation. Very unfortunate, and I know there have been other postings on Google Reviews showing similar experiences where instructors do not provide good supervision and children end up getting injured by others, so this is not an isolated case. If you expect to leave your children in a safe environment with trustworthy adult supervision, this is not the place, even if the gymnastics instruction is good.
