We had a great experience at the Lost Mayan Kingdom! My wife and I were on a Royal Caribbean cruise celebrating our 20th anniversary. We booked the excursion through Carnival and the cost was $89/person (we booked a few days in advance). I'm not sure if it's cheaper to buy tickets at the park, but it was more convenient to have the tickets ahead of time and that includes the transportation there and back. They have lockers available to rent for $5 and they are large enough to fit a backpack, water bottles, clothes and towels. First off, it's important to have realistic expectations. This is not a Disney or Busch Gardens Water Park...it's Mexico. But it is a lot of fun! We felt like we had the place to ourselves! None of the rides had a wait, so we walked on everything we wanted to do. It was our first time doing a Zip Line, and that was one of the hightlights of the day! The ride is broken up into 5 segments that fly from station to station and the last ride drops you into a pool. They also have a zip coaster that also ends in a pool. One of the other parts that we really enjoyed was the lazy river. On this ride, you sit inside the tube as it floats around the park. We saw a lot of trees, plants and a few iguanas. It was quiet, relaxing and a lot of fun! We brought a few snacks with us - enough to hold us over until we could get back to the ship for a late lunch. We spent about 5 hours at the park, and it was the perfect amount of time to be able to enjoy everything we wanted to do. I'd definitely recommend this excursion! read more

This place is nasty. There is black mold everywhere and their water is stagnant and gross. Bugs are all over the place and our kid got bit up. I DO NOT recommend anyone come here. read more

Probably one of the better water parks I have been to I went here in the morning and ended up leaving at noon. Although the entire thing isn't very large, most of the slides were pretty awesome. They had a ruin which stands about 5 floors. Each floor had at least two slides and some zip lines. There were 3 slides, I think, that required floats/tubes. Those were my favorite. I like that they have a diagram of each slide and labeled them by intensity. Besides the slides that I enjoyed, they also had a pretty awesome lazy river. We did that twice. Everyone that worked there was really friendly. The place was pretty clean. We didn't have issues with waiting in line for too long. When we first started there was about no body and you can do all the rides without waiting. But there was a line when we left. Overall, its a pretty simple water park but with some good fun. I would recommend if you love water parks. read more

Loved our day here! Got this booked walking through town. $65 for the whole park (but they lied) and the beach with unlimited alcohol. We were sold a package to use the entire park with slides and all, once we get there they kicked us off the slides, and made us do the walk of shame down. Other then that we had an AMAZING experience here! We loved connecting with each person on each zip line. I would HIGHLY RECOMMEND! read more

Our original power snorkeling excursion got cancelled because of the weather, so we switched to this excursion instead. It was fantastic. We were so impressed - there were like 15 different zip lines and one was a roller coaster. You pay $69 for the whole day and can go as many times as you want. We were actually worn out after 1.5 hours because it was colder on the day we went. Everyone working there was super professional and they were very on top of safety. They checked our gear at every zip line and again when we switched courses. We are definitely doing this excursion again if we go back to Costa Maya. read more

I could have done without the hair in my burger, or the patronizing jerk at the register who lied about wifi not working with an iPhone so he didn't have to get a new code. The food truck that kept saying "come back in 5 minutes" to get our food, or the server that never brought us the bottles of water we purchased. The place is stunning, but you'll be quickly reminded that customer service is the key to a great business... And this business has no customer service. What a shame. Hopefully we don't have issues at the slides. read more

There's plenty to do at this water park. They have multiple zip lines, a zip coaster, and plenty of water slides that rival the height of the ones at Atlantis The lazy river was pretty cool as well (about a 20-25minute round trip) Avoid the green checkered slide that requires a tube as there are plastic mats inside designed to slow you down but often times causes you to capsize. (The orange one is much better and faster) Rode every ride once and and did a repeat on one slide. Overall we finished the entire park in about 4 hours starting early in the morning. There were no lines at 830am and remained pretty free flowing until around 1130am read more

Don't miss out. Awesome Ziplines and waterslides Has fun for kids to adults. 3 awesome ziplines (really good long ziplines) and tons of adult and kid waterslides along with a long lazy river and multiple pools. Best of all, no lines because the Lost Mayan Kingdom just opened a month ago and this is not yet a well known secret!!! Honestly, we could have spent 3 days here. Superfun and located less than a 5minute drive to the cruise ship port. Don't miss out on this place. Totally worth it and glad that we went. Super nice staff also. Visited January 2016 read more

Best water park you'll ever go to in your entire life!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Okay, so we thought that the price to go through the cruise line was a little steep (~100$) NCL, but it was so worth it. You can take a taxi and pay for it yourself when you get there, which I think it's $20 cheaper, but it's much more work to do so, this way it's convenient and you don't have to worry about the cruise line leaving you. They have a plethora of different water slides, which go from mild to extremely freaking wild!!!! Some of them really had my heart racing. They also have different zip lining available, and a zip coaster. In addition, they also have a lazy river and some kiddie pools to relax. There was almost no one at the park when we went, just a handful of people so we had A TON of time to do everything at least once. If we didn't get hungry, we could've done everything twice or even three times before we had to go... (and yes, there are A LOT of things to do, just emphasis on how empty the park was). The workers are stellar and just awesome people. GO GO GO!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! read more

We were first time zip liners and were a little scared, but the staff was very helpful and friendly. They put us completely at ease. My best friend & I took our daughters and we all had so much fun. The water slides were fun too! Plus, Charlie was so handsome and sweet that I wanted to bring him home with me! Lol read more

I hate water parks - I hate the long lines, eternal flights of stairs, and lazy bums masquerading as employees. However, I LOVE this waterpark - it's got huge ELEVATORS and LOTS of helpful employees who seem to care about their guests. And there are RARELY more than a few people in line since there are so many slides, which range from SCREAMING FAST to just slightly thrilling. All are housed in the giant pyramid and begin at different heights with elevator stops for each. There's also a lazy river that takes about a half hour to get around that makes you feel like you're just floating through the jungle. And there are ziplines - several ziplines with one being a ZipCoaster (a zipline attached to a roller coaster track). It cost two of us just over $150, purchased at the park - parking (for our rented golf cart) was free, although there's a $5 charge for a locker at the base of the pyramid. My only complaint is that you have to have a five dollar bill because they offer no change even though their cash box is FULL of fives. read more

Overall, we had a pretty good experience. The park is actually very pretty, the staff are all friendly, and even though there was a cruise ship there (we were driving around the Yucatan and decided to do this for grins) the lines were non-existent. There's an elevator if you want to avoid doing stairs, too. It's salt-water instead of chlorine, which was actually nice. The park is actually pretty small - zip-lines, zip coaster, the main tower full of water slides, and the lazy river. It lets you do everything in a pretty short time, but there isn't a lot to the place. This is a great way to kill a morning or an afternoon, I can't see spending a whole day here, which I think may be because it's geared towards cruise-ship visitors. (We laughed, in fact, about how few parking spaces there are because almost no one drives there.) We saved money by paying in pesos instead of USD or with a credit/debit card (this is good advice traveling in Mexico in general - carry pesos and always ask for the price in pesos!). The biggest disappointment was the photos from the park. You are given an electronic bracelet and you tap it on boxes near the rides, and it ties the photos taken of you on the slides to you own device. At the end of the day, you hand your bracelet to the guy at the gift shop and he pulls your photos for you. Instead of paying for a print or two, you buy a little portable USB device with your images loaded on it. I thought this was pretty awesome - as it's a lot easier to throw in your purse than photos that can get bent or damaged. We had a group of four, and most of our photos weren't captured, which was disappointing as we were looking forward to touristy photos. They managed to pull up about a dozen photos, and put them on a drive for $39.99. We sucked it up and paid - $20 a couple - whatever. We got the drive home, and of the dozen files, only three aren't corrupt. So we paid $40 for three photos, and they hilariously wound up all being of the same person from our group of four, so only one of us got photos from the day. :( The system would be awesome if it worked. The other warning is this: my hubby is 6'5" and pushing 300lbs. He "broke" several of the slides - there wasn't a single slide there he wasn't wounded on. Literally. The wavy slides you go down on mats? Lost all the skin on his knee (nasty, nasty bloody injury) because the mats are so short. The slide you ride with the inner tubes? Too big for the tube, he flipped, and took off a lot of flesh from his elbow, and then had to crab-walk his way out of the slide. The standard slides? He couldn't go down them, he would get stuck because there wasn't enough water pressure. The harnesses for the zip coaster and zip lines were painfully snug and dug into his groin so he couldn't try those. The only attraction he could actually use was the lazy river. A month later he's finally scab-free from his injuries at this water park. So, if you're big, you may want to skip this place. For the other three of us in the group, we had fun, had multiple trips on the slides and zip coaster, and it was a good way to kill a few hours while driving from Point A to Point B. A bit on the spendy side in comparison to many other activities in the Yucatan, but again I suspect this is related to their primary visitors coming off of cruise ships. I wish the photos hadn't been corrupted. I don't think we'd visit again BUT it's worth going to once if you're into water parks at all! read more

Overall the water park is good and there are slides for both adults and kids. The kids area is very nice and had a lot of different slides for our 5 year old. We also enjoyed the lazy river ride. The maintenance of the park could be improved though. There were a lot of ants everywhere including the concrete areas. They really need to have some sort of ant treatment otherwise its nearly impossible to walk without shoes. Also the water in the pools and lazy river didn't look very clean and full of bugs and other various things. read more
