    The mini golf course was fun and in good shape. We also enjoyed feeding the baby gators.

    Veronica B.

    We came here to see and feed the alligators. We were told we couldn't just buy the food and feed them. Even though we had other people we traveled with go the night before and do that. So we had to buy four rounds of golf just so our girls could feed the alligators. Our girls loved the experience. The employees could've been a little nicer, they seemed a little rude. They sell drinks, snacks and have a little souvenir area where you purchase your round of golf.

    Good course with fun holes, $55 for two people (two games, two beers, and gator food).

    Nice miniature golf course! A total of 18 games and you get to feed baby alligators! Would come back again!

    Perfect place for some after dinner fun! Course was 18 holes and seemed well maintained. Scenery was cool and was slow so it made for the perfect evening as nothing was rushed. They did have live gators which you can feed which was kind of cool but just like anything in life that's going to cost you.

    Can't complain! What a fun way to spend a few hours! I am absolutely terrible at putting but who cares!

    One of the more elaborately decorated mini golf courses in the Bradenton area, this place boasts a pirate ship, waterfalls, caves, and an alligator pit! 18 holes dot the landscape of this multi-tiered golfing challenge. I can't stress the decorations enough here. Cave paintings, pirate swag everywhere - just a whole lot of fun! They even have snacks and drinks and ice cream at the end. If you're up for it, you can do a 2nd round for only $1.99. Usually you can play here and it's not a long wait. It's a bit expensive, but if you take the 2nd round option your price per round drops considerably. Fun replay, so you'll want to come back again. Some of the holes are straight and easy - would like to see cup moved in future.

    Great mini golf place. Super nice staff and upkeep. Also cool seeing the gators. Cool hole layouts, nothing too hard. Difficulty would probably be 3 out of 5. The putters were nice and the balls looked new which is always groovy. My only gripe were the weird black squares at the start of each hole to set your ball on to hit from. I prefer just to hit from the green. FYI the black tees can be moved if you prefer too. I would come back again!

Then the girl backed away from me and refused to answer me or explain further, the girl with the long hair stepped in and actually helped. When I was done with the waiver, I stupidly went to the girl with the bun thinking that she was going to help me but she gave me nasty attitude so the other girl helped. I should have been given more attention when downloading the waiver and not given the attitude and silent treatment from the girl in the bun.

There are a plethora of activities and attractions housed in this ample space. My daughter loves playing in the variety of amusements. From laser tag, zip lining, climbing walls/challenges, ropes course, go karts, slides, agility challenges, trampolines, sports court, and zip line, amongst others and a snack shack and arcade area, there is surely something to appeal to every kid or kid of all ages. The snack shack doles out really good (for an indoor play place) pizza pies which comes cheese and pepperoni or by the slice. There are various other offerings such as plaid or loaded French fries, Icees and deluxe Icee treats, as well as Dipping Dots ice cream. One-day pass or worthwhile monthly memberships are available. On my most recent visits the staff, and especially Cameryn Kayden and Jerrimyah (Perhaps? Sadly I didn't catch his full name but he is a really nice guy with braids), in addition to the front end staff were most helpful and patient and made sure we had a stellar experience. Thank you, Urban Ait! We will continue to return!

    Location: Adventure Island Date: June 27, 2026…read moreService: Waterpark Today I went for the first time ever to adventure Island Park. Unfortunately the park close early this evening due to weather conditions. The ones I said ensure that all the customers left the park safely and promptly. I was with a group and we made sure we stick together and listen to all the required announcements. Call and Jade assisted me at the snack shack where they have pizza and soft serve unfortunately they did not have any software available at the time when I was there or they didn't have any pepperoni ready either they just told me 15 to 20 minutes wait. Matthew at the front gate assisted taking a picture for us with the group We appreciate that Thank you very much. I managed to pick up a souvenir from my family before exiting the park.

    First time visiting Adventure island with the family, I bought four tickets on Groupon and when we…read morearrived the tickets would not pop up and there was an issue with the app so after trying to contact Groupon and trying to get the tickets waiting nearly over 1 hour I was able to talk to some one to help me send my ticket information to the workers at Adventure island. What I like about the park is that there is enough activity for the kids to stay busy and my kids love being in the water also they have a regular pool and a wave pool. There is floating donuts for free to use in the lazy river and the lazy river is pretty long so you don't get bored. The wave pool is a good size and can fit a lot of people, also they have plenty of lifeguards on duty not just in the wave pool but I'm all the water activity areas and also security just in case things get out of hand. The rides are pretty fun and most of the time the lines where not that long of you can purchase a 'fast pass' type to get ahead in line. What I did not like about the park overall, the parking fee is $40 just to park when it should be included in the entree fee and also I didn't like that they did not try to fix our situation with groupon by letting us in with proof of our purchase untill one of their employees decided to look for my name and bam! He found my tickets. Overall, I am not sure I would comeback We waited a long time to get this issue resolved and no one tried to do much. I also noticed that the trash bins in this place were completely full and food trash was falling from the trash bins causing for the birds to get the extra food and fight over it. Overall,this park had a lot of lifeguards and security but it looked dirty and trashy. If you come in the summer time the place will be packed with lots of roudy kids.

I was told it cost $250,000 and is the largest in the world There is a straight main slide and curving side courses. You get wet. There is also a mechanical surf boarding area. Like a mechanical bull ride but you stand up an do faux surfing. The set up is for three of them side by side so you can compete to stay up or try to score the best time. One was broken when I was there.. There is also a mechanical shark on the beach. I didn't try it or get a close look. But it seems like a great idea.. Waivers are necessary for the surfing and shark. There is also a water jet pack thing you can do. And there is an a set up of small slides and inflatable climbing structures in the Gulf you can use. The mechanical shark is $4. The slide is $25 for all day. A resort activity pass is, I believe, $35. I'm not really sure what exactly it includes. The hotel has various pools (some dated and a but smallish and crowded), a sauna, live music, beach bars, and various games and activites such a making s'mores and awater balloon toss. Like I said I'm not sure what the activity pass does and doesn't include.. Some things are included with your stay. And some things cost money even if you stay.. And, as previously noted, you can do some of it with an activity pass or slide pass. Good luck.

No wait to get in at all and absolutely beautiful course!! Everyone working here was so friendly, to the woman at the front desk (I wish I knew her name), and to another employee (I think his name was Aerus, but I don't know if I'm remembering or spelling it right)!

The staff was so friendly right from the start, and we loved that you can even buy gator food and feed the alligators--such a fun, unique touch! We've probably played at 15-20 mini golf courses from Florida to Massachusetts, and honestly, this one ranks at the very top. I can't even decide what I loved more--the creative course design or the beautiful tropical landscaping. And as if that wasn't enough, they'll deliver alcohol, snacks, and beverages while you play... yes, please! This place really felt special. My late Aunt Cindy V lived in the area for many years, and I know she probably loved this spot too. Her dog Jaxx is happy and sometimes visits us here in Florida if anyone wants to say hi! Can't recommend Smugglers Cove enough! It's the perfect mix of fun, relaxation, and good vibes.
