    The beach restaurant is right inside the water park.
    Destany K.

    This is an awesome park. We went during off season and enjoyed the ample seating and water space. There were lots of lifeguards around despite the low attendance of patrons. The food is pretty good inside at the Beach Front Grill. Their options are a California burrito, turkey wrap (my personal fav) and a veggie wrap along with some kids items (pizza, quesadilla, etc.) There's also personal cabanas you can rent for $200 where you get a fridge and personalized service. Make sure you rent ahead of time, however. There are lots of chairs and lounge chairs with huge umbrellas over to protect you from the sun, but I expect this place to be packed during the summer so you may want to bring your personal handheld sun umbrella. Lockers are available and free life vests. Again, likely to go quickly during the summer. Highly recommend coming during off season, but make sure to check Legolands website as it isn't open all the time.

    Not a bad place. Lots of activities that ALL include water. Don't forget your credit or debit card as the concessions don't take cash. We visited this anniversary day after 25 years since our last visit (like 2 months after first opening). Wow!!! A wonder how all of the trees have grown in to provide shade throughout the park. 25 years ago the water park wasn't yet completed, and I think the first ride had just opened at that time. Everyone back then was seeking shade from the same two trees. Funny how times change. Dicks

    Cool in the pool

    Worth the price of admission. Staff are friendly and welcoming. The place is clean and safe. You'll feel like you're on a far away island with the lush foliage and palm trees. The music is perfect for the theme. Very chill and relaxing. Tons of umbrellas and lounge chairs for everyone to enjoy. Be sure to get here early though to avoid the crowds. Bring sunscreen and a hat, maybe sunglasses too unless it's overcast. Please be courteous and be sure your kids don't poop the pool! Don't ruin the fun for everyone!

    We had a blast as a family. Our boys loved it so much. One thing to note the waterpark you do have to have a tickets that cost $5 at the window of entrance for kids age 1-2. We didn't know that until we arrived. Its free for the Legoland dry park for that age range up to 3 I believe. Nonetheless, we had a blast and we would come again. So much to do in the waterpark itself that we loved. Super relaxing. Made easy for stroller rentals, locker rentals, restrooms nearby. The locker was reasonably priced. $16 for whole day. Had a wristband you scan to open the locker. Super easy to use. Would highly recc to any families wanting to add an addition to their family summer fun!

    The water park is pretty fun for young kids. For an additional $30 per day, it is a good price. However, due to covid restrictions and reopening, there are few spots that are not opened. So check first. E.g. due to short staff, the wave pool was not open yesterday. I am guessing because of covid restrictions, the river with floats is not opened at all. Amazingly it is not crowded at all this week.

    The Legoland Water Park is a gem that we didn't know existed until this year. My boys are 7 and 4 and cannot wait until we can come back. They have so much to do, you can definitely spend a whole day at just their water park. Our favorites were the lazy river, the orange raft slide, and the wave pool. We love the Legoland Water Park.

    Fun place for little kids, the rides are definitely fun but not as thrilling as the ones at Knotts soak city or raging waters. We came here with my niece recently and she had a blast. I was told by our friends that this place gets really crowded and busy on the weekends, so we elected to do this on Monday and the park was pretty empty. There was no lines getting on most of the rides, and we were able to get shaded lawn chairs no problems. The park is not very big, so you can walk around and not get lost. There are several restaurant inside the park for food options, but expect to pay an arm and a leg for anything. Over all super fun experience for the whole family.

    The food at the burger stand is actually pretty tasty!!!

    This place is so much fun. I've been taking my kid here for several years (we always get annual passes). Until last summer the water park was just very boring and the line for the lazy river was insanely long, because that was the only option for just floating about and relaxing. It was as if the Legoland Water Park was simply an afterthought. But last summer the Chima section opened and it made the entire place seem so much more spacious. It's a simple addition of a wave pool, and kid's' area and a burger stand, but these simple things make the entire water park section of Legoland much less crowded and way easier to enjoy. More people are hanging out at the wave pool area, where there are tons of chairs and ample shade (a bonus for Irish girls like me), thus freeing up the original water park space and alleviating the long lines a bit. So if you're going to Legoland during the warmer months and your family loves to get wet (without the sand, salt, and freezing water of the beach), I can highly recommend the water park.

    OMG anyone with kids I recommend this water park. Worth every penny. There are so many different areas for you and your kids to play. You can stay there all day and just relax. I just took my sons to the waterpark for the 1st time post pandemic and loved it. I will take more pics next time to show off this place.

    As far as water parks go Legoland Water Park is nice. The park is larger than what we expected with many areas to explore with different themes. They even have a water ride in Pirate Reef., and another tube ride called Orange Rush. There are a couple of water slide rides. The lazy river is called Build-a-raft River and some of the tubes let you build onto the raft with giant soft legos! They have a wave pool, which is nice - and is very mild waves compared to some other water parks we've been to. There are also plenty of areas for toddlers and small children. There was some parts under construction. They have changing rooms and plenty of bathrooms. I didn't eat inside this part of the park, but they did have a couple places to buy food. You can of course rent cabanas; and they appeared to have waitress service. It's a fun water park!

    Cabanas are worth the money and make the park much more enjoyable. I'd opt for a premium cabana next time though for the better location.

    Ask the Community - Legoland Water Park

    As of August 2022, is HALF the park still closed due to staff issues? Or are they completely open now?

    In July they reopened (almost) fully. We were there a couple of weeks ago and they did have the lazy river closed but the rest was open. I have heard rumors that as high schools and colleges begin to restart, they may run into issues again, but as… 

    I see that 1-day tickets can include the water park, how many hours feel sufficient to enjoy this park but still have time to enjoy Legoland?

    2-3 hours

    If we have a water park / park hopper ticket, do we have in and out privileges? Or, can we only enter the water park once?

    In and out is fine in my experience.

    When will Legoland Water Park reopen?

    It's open

    Can I bring my own little inner tube? Not planning on going down any slides but my daughter likes floating in one since she can't swim.

    Yes

    Would you recommend this waterpark for kids 10+? Are there larger slides? Or is it more for little kids?

    There are slides for everyone. They will like a lot of the attractions in the water park, but would be bored in the duplo area.

    If the weather prediction is 65 degrees.... would you still take a 2 yr old?

    The water is warm in most pools, like the kiddie area however it will be cold when they get out. I took mine when the weather was like 68 degrees.

    Do they have showers?

    Yes

    The floatie for the lazy river is provided or must be purchased?

    Provided

    Do they let us bring floaties or life jackets for little ones?

    You can bring your own but they have racks of different size life jackets near the front entrance to use and put back. Hope this helps! Have a great time!

    When does it open spring summer or what?

    Yes there open all year long check the website for each day and time

    Do you have to enter legoland park to get to water park?

    Yes the waterpark is at the rear of Legoland. You must enter the park first.

    Are towels provided?

    Nope. Bring your own, otherwise you'll have to pay $17 to buy thin, Legoland beach towels.

    Is the water warm?

    The kiddie pool is warm. The lazy river is warmish. The others are not warm.

    Are shuttles provided from airport to park?

    No

Everyone said they had a really good time and that they would love to come again. The slides got a thumbs up from the older kids and the splash pad did as well from the little ones. The water was warm in the splash pad but it did feel a little underwhelming not much to do. The one and only pool is big it goes from 3 ft to 6'6 ft deep. The water was warm but it definitely need of some TLC the paint/floor is chipping off and the stairs need to be deep cleaned or power washed. The grout looked black in some parts. The lazy river is 3 ft deep and there were plenty of inner tubes for everyone. I did see feathers and a little bit of trash in the water. Safety does seem to be of high priority with the amount of life guards and staff that are roaming the park. Given that it's mostly high schoolers they all seem to be doing their job and paying attention. The food was over priced but with the rule of no outside food we didn't have much choice but to purchase our meals in the park. The burger alone was $11 and the hotdog $4 ( I round up because I don't remember exactly amount). Over all we had a good time and would come and visit the park again in the future.

The bathroom and bedroom also had spider webs throughout, and I personally counted several spiders. I'm not trying to nitpick, but when you're charging a premium price, basic cleanliness and upkeep should be a given. The landscaping is beautiful, and the golf course and tennis courts were absolutely immaculate. Unfortunately, it felt like all the attention was put into the outside appearance while the actual hotel rooms were neglected. It was disappointing to see such a beautiful property not being maintained to the same standard throughout. There are a couple of pool areas. One is a smaller, more traditional pool with a jacuzzi, while the other is geared toward children with several pools and a splash pad area, which was nice for families with young kids. Overall, if you're coming specifically to use the golf course or tennis courts, I would recommend it. However, based on our experience, I would not recommend booking a room here. For the price, the cleanliness and maintenance simply weren't up to the standard I would expect from a resort at this price point.

We loved that there were two separated spaces for adults and kids. We ate at the hotel as well for breakfast and dinner. The food was good enough. It wasn't great, but it wasn't bad at all.

Rides: a variety from the calmer ones (riding in a jeep taking pictures of Lego dinos) to the more thrilling ones (coaster! Including the dino coaster for the smaller kids!). Lots to do! Attractions: lots of opportunities to build Legos and seeing them come to life! Ferrari build was a hit! Water park: the park was way bigger than I expected. It has multiple pools, multiple splash pads, multiple playgrounds with water features, a giant wave pool and a thrilling log ride, and more! You have to bring your own towels. Lockers are pricey. Food was hectic and a mess but there were plenty of food stalls and options. You could definitely spend many hours just at the water park. Aquarium: it's tiny but nice to be out of the sun, having a bit more calm. Good variety of sea creatures. A hit with the kiddos. Bathrooms: they were always very clean!

VIP Tour with Renate Renate was simply amazing. From the moment we met her, we felt like we had known her for years. She has such a warm personality, and her way with children made the experience that much better. She was incredibly sweet and patient with both of our kids and made them feel special throughout the tour. One of the coolest parts was learning how LEGO pieces are made and seeing the different stages of the process. The room we visited was filled with so many little LEGO treasures that our kids were almost overloaded trying to take everything in! We also left with lots of fun little trinkets and souvenirs. The VIP Tour made an already great LEGOLAND trip so much more memorable. If you're considering it, I highly recommend booking it--you won't regret it. And if you get Renate as your guide, even better! Three Days at LEGOLAND Thursday's lines were manageable, but the park became increasingly crowded through Saturday. Definitely download the LEGOLAND app before your visit. You can create a list of attractions, see where everything is located, check showtimes, and monitor wait times. We averaged around 12,000-15,000 steps a day, so planning your route helps! Treat the app's wait times as a guide, not gospel. The new Galaxy coaster showed a 60-minute wait, but we happened to walk by when the line was short and got on in about 25 minutes. Other times, supposedly short waits were actually longer. One-Shot Fast Pass Tip We technically never used a Fast Pass. I purchased one because the app showed a 45-minute wait, but when we arrived there was basically no line. Thankfully, I hadn't scanned the pass and had taken a screenshot of the posted wait. Guest Services was very understanding and refunded it. My advice: if you're considering a one-shot Fast Pass, go to the ride first and look at the actual line. If it's long, buy the pass from your phone then. Don't purchase it in advance solely based on the app. LEGOLAND Castle Hotel We stayed at the Castle Hotel. The rooms are definitely small, but this trip was for the kiddos and they loved it. There are lots of fun touches. You can text the hotel for extra LEGO bricks for the kids to play with. If it's their birthday, they'll put a cool birthday banner outside the room that you can keep. There's also a treasure hunt around the hotel with four questions. Complete it and the kids get the combination to a locked treasure box in the room with a small prize. If you stay multiple nights, you can receive up to two prizes. The playground and pool were awesome too. LEGOLAND closes relatively early--7 p.m. on weekdays and 8 p.m. on weekends during our visit--so having a playground, movies, and staff entertainment afterward was a big plus. Also check out the other LEGOLAND Hotel. It has a really cool indoor pirate ship play area that the kids enjoyed. Overall We had a fantastic three days. Staying at the hotel added to the experience, but the VIP Tour really took the trip to another level. The biggest shout-out goes to Renate. Our kids had an incredible time with her, and so did we. Years from now, when we talk about this LEGOLAND trip, I have a feeling our VIP experience with Renate will be one of the things we remember most. Thank you, Renate, for making our family trip that much more special!
