I've been to this indoor play place several times for other parties and always loved it...until it…read morecame time for my daughter's birthday. I booked her party 5 months in advance and paid for two extra hours, specifically because I wanted the gym privately for the full 4 hours. Our party was scheduled from 1-5 PM. About one week before the party, I received a call saying that the last hour (4-5 PM) would now be open play, and that the pricing for the second additional hour had changed. While they said they wouldn't charge me the new price since I booked far in advance, I expressed how upset I was that this change was communicated so late. Had I known sooner, I would have adjusted the party time to avoid open play altogether. I was then told on the phone that there was no guarantee anyone would come in during that last hour, which turned out to be completely untrue. On the day of the party, we felt rushed to go into the party room and was told we couldn't enter the play area because another group/party was already using it, meaning our party was overlapped with another event. To add even more stress, I received a call the day before the party saying there might be an additional cleanup fee. This was surprising, especially since my friend has hosted two parties here before and was never charged a cleanup fee. What should have been a joyful, stress-free experience for my daughter's first birthday turned into unnecessary anxiety and frustration due to poor communication and last-minute changes. I'm really disappointed, especially given how much I previously loved this place. Unfortunately, I don't think I'd host another party here again.

I had a great time in Bubble Planet with my toddler daughter. It was our first time in this museum…read moreof bubbles! Everything was about bubbles! I love their exhibits a lot. Most of them were very fun and not boring or bland as I thought they would be. My favorite was the Bubble Ocean where my daughter and I got to walk and throw big balloons everywhere. It was all balloons everywhere and luckily none of them pop at all when I went through them. I also could breathe with all the balloons all over me. I also love the bubble bath where we got to be in a ball pit. It was so big with floats of a human head and feet sticking out of the balls. It was pretty creepy to have the human head and feet stick out. The bubble bath was a lot of fun though and was kind of tough to walk across the other end because of the depth and many balls inside the pool. I did not have socks for the bubble bath and they were mandatory. So luckily they sold socks for $3 and I got a pair. There were many shelves for shoes and benches to relax if you don't want to inside the bubble bath. The last exhibit was the VR where you needed to pay extra. The exhibit looked really cool with all the hanging globe chairs to sit in while you enjoy the VR. I didn't pay for this exhibit so my daughter and I had to leave. We had a ticket for the souvenir bundle, which consists of a magnet, a rubber duck, and a Dino slap bracelet. I thought this bundle was alright in my opinion. It was not really worth it for around $17 even though the duck was pretty big in size and yellow. There were pictures to buy but I didn't buy them.

Bubble Planet is a whimsical, immersive experience that's especially fun for children, but honestly enjoyable for all ages. I highly recommend opting for the VIP experience so you and your minis can take advantage of the virtual reality portion--it really adds another layer to the overall visit. Each room offers something different, making the experience feel interactive and engaging from start to finish. The obstacle course was spacious and kept us entertained the entire time, and the environment as a whole felt creative, vibrant, and well thought out. The restrooms were also clean and well maintained, which is always appreciated when visiting family-friendly attractions. Overall, this is a must-visit if you're in New Jersey and looking for something fun, unique, and memorable to do with your family. We had an incredible time and would absolutely recommend it.

Being on top of the bowling alley, this give kids and family extra time together (or separate if the kids go play by themselves while the parents bowl, which seems to be the case here). There are a great deal of inflatable bounce houses and one giant obstacle course, a ropes tower with a slide, rock wall, some arcade games, and a few birthday party rooms. For two kids to play for 1 1/2 hours was $24 total. Seemed like a pretty good deal considering there's no other place quite like this and it keeps the kids active and happy. It is dingy and there are quite a few broken arcade games that they just decide that they're never going to fix (I've been here a few times). You pay 25-50 cents per game or a dollar to play air hockey, basketball, or a motorcycle game. There are no tickets so you're really only playing to have fun, not win prizes. There is a coin machine (it's slow) to give you quarters for the games. During my most recent visit, the basketball machine broke on us so that was interesting. Other than the rinky dink "arcade" (which is kind of just scattered around the bounce houses), this is a fun place with plenty of room for the kids to run around.

I'm always in search of newer and better indoor playground. Royal Magic Castle has got to rank in…read morethe current top 2 or 3. Huge modern play area, sand room, laser tag and arcade room including claw machines.

It does include unlimited time as others are usually 2 hours max and it includes laser tag. Place is very large, has drinks and a small gift shop (toys, gifts etc).

The decor was amazing! It matched what we saw in their website and Instagram. It also came with pizza and juice for the kids and unlimited play. I was allowed to bring additional food and other snacks and they were kind enough to help me set up and plate the food. One tip would be to confirm the arrival of the pizza time. Our was suppose to arrive at 1230 (party started at 12) and it didn't arrive until 130 because of the rain. The pizza is ordered from a pizza shop so it had to be delivered. They were super nice and apologetic about it. The play area is huge and something for everyone. Although it might be hard to track your kid. It also felt cleaner than other indoor playgrounds that we've been too. We would definitely be back!

He still speaks of his birthday and I can't say enough amazing things about the experience! From start to finish, it was truly a one-stop shop. They handled everything from decorations, food, cake, and nonstop indoor play, which made the day completely stress-free for us and unforgettable for our little one. The space was clean, safe, and perfectly set up for toddlers to have a blast. The staff was incredibly friendly, organized, and attentive, making sure every detail was taken care of. The food and cake were delicious, beautifully presented, and right on time. We also added the balloon animal add-on, and it was a HUGE hit, the kids were absolutely thrilled and it added such a fun, special touch to the party! If you're looking for an easy, fun, and perfectly coordinated birthday party experience, I highly recommend Xtreme Energy Englewood. They made our son feel so special, and we got to actually enjoy the celebration instead of stressing over logistics. Thank you for making his 3rd birthday so memorable!

This is unheard of but such a lifesaver. Now for the playspace itself. It's new, clean, well laid out with lots of options including a book room, painting and drawing table, slide with climber, dolls, play kitchen and various other small movement items. The painting area is also very well organized and labeled. It's never been too crowded and I've gone twice on weekends.
