    Beautiful facility with several banquet rooms. Will definitely consider this venue for our next event.

    What a great time!! I took a paddle board lesson from James this morning and very glad I did. I've…read morebeen wanting to learn for years. He shared a lot of safety info and techniques that made me feel comfortable on the board. If you've wanted to learn but not sure, go for it! He eased us into how to do it right so it wasn't so intimidating. So much fun.

    Came across this kayaking company via instagram and had to check it out. They were offering a full…read moremoon guided tour and I wanted in. Prior to excursion, my friends and I had to reserve a spot on their website. The initial tour ended up being fully booked, however, James the guide offered open up another day due to the moon tour being so popular. The meeting area was at the boat launch ramp area. We signed waivers and were given a run down on kayaking 101 (it was our first kayaking excursion) with 4 other people. The weather was warm, the waters were calm and the mosquitoes were biting. So don't forget to apply sunscreen and have plenty of bug repellent! Wear water shoes, bring snacks and water. Also, maybe bring a small fanny pack or water resistant bag to carry small items in. As we paddled, James checked up on everybody and made sure we were all doing okay. Along the way he informed us about the wetlands and what type of wildlife were around. James even provided us with his own bug repellent to use to keep the mosquitoes at bay. Once it was dark enough, we settled in an area of the wetlands to wait for the moon to rise. My friends and I were elated and in awe that we got to see the Harvest moon rise on the hills whilst kayaking. Kodak moment for sure. The journey around Suisun Bay lasted for about 2 hours. It was a cool experience, especially with the moon acting as our guiding light. My arms definitely got in a work out from paddling so much. Overall, great experience, reasonably priced and James was professional and informative. Highly recommend!

    I originally wrote this review in Spanish because I wanted to share it with the Spanish-speaking…read morecommunity. Unfortunately, it wouldn't post correctly, so I'm reposting it in English to make sure my review is published. Scandia Family Fun Center will always hold a special place in my heart. For many years, I brought my children here to celebrate several of their birthdays, and we always had an amazing time. Between the batting cages, go-karts, and arcade games, there was never a shortage of things to do. My kids had so much fun that they never wanted to leave, and I loved seeing them enjoy themselves and burn off all that energy. These are the kinds of memories you cherish forever--watching your children grow up and celebrating special moments in a place that always delivered a great experience. To me, Scandia isn't just a family entertainment center; it's part of my family's story. I highly recommend Scandia Family Fun Center to anyone looking to spend quality time with their children and create lasting memories.

    With Napa plans cancelled (we left out too late for reservation), hubby and I decided to pivot and…read morehave a play date. I'm a SUPER BIG kid with a teeny tiny competitive streak so what better place to go than to Scandia. With a play card already in the car, we used the self service kiosk to load up on play points. Each arcade station costs so many points to play. The machine accepted cash, cards and mobile pay. A few of the machines were broken, so after the machine took our points with no play we approached the counter and were credited via the play card. There were racing games with cars and motorcycles, shooting simulators, street fighter/mortal combat style games, asteroids, pac man, air hockey and more. The Fast & Furious racing simulator is the best, power ups, nitro packs, the setup of the steering wheel and pedal felt real, the interface was super engaging. My husband and I went head to head and it was incredible! This game is literally the reason I picked Scandia. Miniature golf too, we did both grounds - 18 holes each. We had a grand ol' time. Our daughter and I usually venture to Scandia for her playdates and for her play, but this time was amazing since I got to play too esp play what I wanted to play without compromise. I already recommend and enjoy every visit here.

    When my daughter started gymnastics, her biggest dream was to make the team, and in March she…read morefinally achieved that goal. She was so excited and proud of herself. Unfortunately, over time, she lost interest and no longer wanted to go because she didn't feel supported by her new coach, Kyile. She felt that the coach Kyile had something against her and didn't truly care about the girls. As a parent, it was heartbreaking to watch her excitement and passion fade. I hope she finds a gym where the coaches encourage, support, and believe in their athletes so she can fall in love with gymnastics again and regain the confidence she once had.

    Save your time and money and go elsewhere. My daughters attend classes here, and there is very…read morelittle actual coaching. Coaches do not provide recommendations to students or parents on what they can work on at home to support progress, and overall communication from the coaching staff is lacking. Unfortunately, the front desk staff--specifically the woman who sits at the front--has been consistently rude and unprofessional. There were issues with emails that I never received regarding a show. When I called to sort it out (after my girls had practiced very hard and were excited to participate), the front desk staff member spoke down to me, made rude comments, and laughed throughout the conversation. She clearly lacks basic people skills, unless she is interacting with people she personally knows. I later reached out to inform them that we would be going on vacation and that my daughters would miss a few classes. Her response was, "You still need to pay" I was already aware of that and was simply communicating as a courtesy, in case the teacher noticed or cared that my children would be absent. While we were on vacation, I received an email stating, "We missed your daughter in class--is everything okay?" I responded promptly and explained that we were on vacation. The same front desk staff member replied that the message was automated and to disregard it--followed once again by a reminder about payment. Mind you, we have never missed a payment in over two and a half years. Overall, this business is rude, lacks communication, appears money-driven, and several coaches (with the exception of one or two) seem unhappy during classes. Advancement is rare, progress is minimal, and it ultimately feels like a waste of time and money. I will be taking my children--and my business--elsewhere, just as several other families and coaches have recently done.
