    Said the shoes were not enclosed. However when I bought the go kart ticket they said it was not open toe.
    Shirl S.

    Went there the Sunday before labor day. Got there about 7pm. I was relieved to see the parking lot kind of empty. It was our first time here so I wasn't sure what to expect. From the outside this place looks fun. There's a water feature and the mini golf. Inside was a little small but it wasn't packed. We went to the ticket counter and I purchased 2 go kart tickets. The person at the counter informed me that everyone needs to have closed toe shoes to ride the go karts. I told her we did. I asked the person at the counter for a suggestion on buying a game card. She told me most of the games were 10 cents so I should be fine with a $10 card. I went against her suggestion and purchased a $25 game card. We went outside and stood in line for the double go karts. The line was pretty long. Apparently that's where the crowd was. After about 15 minutes the go karts pulled in. They opened the gates to let people in and I kid you not....our place in line did not change. After about another 10 minutes in the snail pace queue I decided it would be best if we played some games inside and waited till the go kart line subsided. Back inside I realized there were not many options for games. Also, the majority of the games were $1.00 per play. I guess the employee who told me most the games were 10 cents is new. Not many of the games were kid friendly. After about an hour we returned outside to the go kart line and it's just as long. There is a police officer standing in line. I ask him if he's waiting for a ride and he said "No this ride is closed." I am horrified. Its 8pm. How can the line be closed? Thankfully there was a family of 4 who said they were leaving so we were able to take their place. So we've been waiting in line for an hour. Literally. It turns out only 3 of the double go karts are in service. The ONLY reason I'm committed to waiting in line is because my son will have a conniption if we walk away. We get to the front of the line after an hour and the attendant tells me that my son can't ride because his shoes are not enclosed. I look at him in disbelief. So there is a huge problem with communication in this place because the person who sold me the ticket said no open toe shoes. My son starts having a melt down because he doesn't understand why we can't go on the ride. I ask the attendant if they sell swim shoes. He said yes. I run to the counter. They tell me all they have is kids size 13. My son is 3 and wears size 8. I buy the shoes anyway for $15.99, slip them on his feet like a pair of flippers and run outside so we can get to ride. The go karts are already going and the attendant takes our ticket and let's me join the group. We literally make 1 round on the track and it's time to come in. So I still have that other ticket. I go ask for a refund. I get it. The guy at the counter is nice enough to issue a refund for the swim shoes too. Hence the 1 star in this review. This place is a Hot Mess. An unorganized mess. I will not return.

    The entrance ... excuse the pic from being turned sideways.

    Super Duper fun once the kids and I got a hang of this place. We started with the bumper boats and then went on to the Go karts and then miniature golf. I have a 14yr old Son, shall I use emojis to explain... lol, just kidding but he's like any other teenager whom you have to drag out of the house while he holds on to the couch for dear life while scratching the filling out of it. And to top it off, we are watching one of our 10yr old nieces this summer and she's the same way! Nonetheless, these two came alive yesterday at this place (07/12/19) and we actually had great fun together. If I have to recommend anything, it would be to go on a Friday after 6pm where you can pay $17.99 per person for all unlimited access to the outside activities. Which is what we did and I must say, it was awesome and I loved the look of the mini golf course when it lit up at night. The place was easy to find, the staff (majority young) were friendly and helpful, even the managers and they made our experience that much better! Can't wait to return (really brought the kid out in me).

    I'd say this place is mostly good for the 2 mini golf courses and go karts. BTW, you cannot have two adults ride together. Yeah. The significant other and I tried. Lol. There were also games where you can win tickets like Main, D&B, etc. But the choices weren't as vast. The batting cage seemed to the most unique thing here. There was also the bumper boats, but they were closed due to the season. It starts back up in March though. Overall, this is a cheap place for some fun, but don't expect much since the facility has suffered wear and tear due to aging.

    Quite surprised this place is still standing after all these years. I remember visiting when I was a kid! They've added Buccaneer Cove now, which is a large outdoor water play area. I won't call it a water park, but it does have a slide and looks quite entertaining for kids under 10. I actually purchased a groupon...$23 for 2 champion passes and $46 for 4. The champion passed include unlimited attractions (bumper boats, go karts, and mini golf). It did not include the arcade and Buccaneer Cove (additional $10 pp). So for what I paid, I was quite pleased. It kept the kids busy and they enjoyed themselves. Their only complaint was the lines took way too long to get on the rides and the bumper boats smelled like urine! I'm sure a smaller child went potty on one of them and it wasn't cleaned. Overall I was impressed at how Malibu has held up after all these years. It doesn't look worn down. Arcade and bathrooms were maintained and appeared clean. The workers were nice and I'd take them back to visit with another Groupon of course. Otherwise, it would be overpriced.

    Do they have batting cages still and what condition are they in?

    Yes, they have many batting cages. They have different speeds and are in pretty good condition. You have to pay inside at the counter to access them. They also provide helmets for your convenience, some are in better condition than others.

    Can I a 3 years old go on their own Kart? Thanks!

    Thank you for your question! Go Kart drivers must be 54" to drive. Go Kart passengers must be 40" tall with an adult 18 years or older driving.

    Is the place a good place for my 5 year old?

    No this place is for pre teens to me

    Nice indoor play area for the kiddos. The only thing that was weird for me was the lighting in the…read moreparty room. I guess the neon colors were a bit much for me. The kids had fun as well as myself! The customer service was A+.

    Birthday Party Review…read more This place is a hidden gem for a birthday party for a child between 4-8, maybe 9. So for the reviews about 12+ year olds, I think that is too old of an age for most activities. This place is by Kitchen wholesale places so you really would not know it existed. It is not far from Slingshots (aka old BJs Wholesale). When you enter it is just a front desk where you sign in and a party room to drop off your shoes and such. I was wondering WTF?!? Anyways, the staff pumps up the kids and gives each one a glow bracelet. The birthday kid gets a brightly colored tie dyed shirt. Then....they open the next door and BAM! You are entering a room of neon colored bounce houses, out of this world wallpaper lined walls from the ceiling to the floor, music (a little too loud) and a ton of things for the kids. They have soccer and basketball nets, they have a mini mini golf area (thus better for younger kids) and a ball shooting thing. These bounce houses for the cleanest ones I have ever seen. I don't think you can just walk in here like other places so you may need to call and find out the "free play". It was great because there were maybe 30 kids there, most with the party we were with. They have chairs for the parents to sit in which is also a perk. I know that they order in pizza for the parties, but we didn't stay long enough for that. Overall, super cool place off the beaten path.
