    OKANA Resort & Indoor Waterpark - We thought we would get a pizza to go back to the room but it was all closed by 8pm.  Located upper level indoor park.

    OKANA Resort & Indoor Waterpark

    (95 reviews)

    Traveled with two adults, a 4 year old and 16 month…read more We came on the year celebration and The cost of the room is what you would expect at a place like this. We paid a little over $300 for a Saturday check in and Sunday check out. Check in was easy and actually got to check in a couple hours early. Staff was very friendly throughout the resort. The King size room was spacious enough to put the pack in play in the corner and still have room to move around. The bed was very comfortable, water pressure was good, and the water was nice and hot. After we unpacked, we went downstairs to catch the Bubble show and then went to the water park. The waterpark was clean and pretty spaced out so it didn't feel too crowded. We traveled with a 4 year old and 16 month old so we spent more time at the toddler zone and kept both of them entertained for hours. We went to Jack rabbit for dinner where we got the hamburger which was small and pricey but at least it tasted good. We ordered two drinks as well and those were delicious. We asked for the check and a drink to go (yes you can take alcohol drinks to go) and the check took forever and the 16 month old was getting restless. That's when we were informed they were having network issues. We didn't think much of it until we realized it affected watching TV the next morning when we turned it on for cartoons for the kids. We tried to kill time getting breakfast because the waterpark didn't open until 10. Unfortunately with no TV and no entertainment for the kids, we were getting a little stir crazy so went to the arcade when it opened at 9. (Mind you we have been up since 6:30) The arcade had things for my 4 year old but only got to play for about 10 minutes. Spent $80 and that money didn't stretch very long at all. Every game was at least 10 tokens, a couple had 8, but all the games were way overpriced. Big kids could spend some major money at the arcade. Overall it was an ok experience but probably won't be returning. We spent almost $600 between the hotel, parking, and food for one night. Things that would have made the trip worth it. Park opened earlier. Small kids wake up early and it would be nice to be able to play before all the big kids get up. We wish the arcade was as bit more affordable or have some form of free entertainment for kids like an outdoor playground. You could easily spend over $1000 for a weekend stay and thats pretty hard to swallow for OKC.

    This review is for the indoor water park as we did not stay at the hotel. My family and I had been…read morewatching the Okana Indoor Waterpark being built for years, so we finally decided to check it out. We visited on March 31, 2026. Our group included my wife, myself, her daughter, and my mother -- three adults and one child. Admission for all of us came to $130.31. We also rented Cabana 14 for an additional $108.61. At first glance, the facility is quite nice. We chose Cabana 14 because it seemed like it would be quieter for our daughter if she got tired or overstimulated. The cabana is advertised to comfortably fit up to 8 people, and we had plenty of room. It includes a TV with cable, a mini fridge (which was empty when we arrived), and a fan to help stay cool. Having a dedicated server and a private food menu was convenient. However, the waterpark is very loud, so the TV was practically unusable. We also noticed some stains on the chairs and that the fan could use a good cleaning. Overall, we would rent a cabana again for the comfort and convenience. Food: Prices are typical for an amusement park -- not cheap, but expected. My wife and I ordered a large 16-inch pepperoni pizza for $26. It reminded us of the old Hungry Howie's in Del City, but it was pretty bland with most of the flavor in the crust. My mother and daughter got burgers ($13 for the classic and $14 for the bacon outlaw), both served with waffle fries, and they said they were good. We also visited the candy shop, where my mother got a $12 vanilla shake and my daughter got a chocolate-covered apple for around $20. Both enjoyed their treats. Cabana Service: Service was slow. It often took 30-45 minutes between server visits, and there was no call button in our cabana. Our server was excellent and clearly overworked -- it seemed like he was handling most or all of the cabanas by himself (possibly because it was a weekday). He did a great job taking care of us, bringing ice water and checking in regularly. He definitely deserves a raise! We did have one issue where the wrong food was delivered, and it took about 45 minutes to get it corrected. The food delivery team should double-check the cabana numbers. Parking: Free parking is tough. We arrived about 20 minutes before the 10 a.m. opening and there were no spots left. If free parking is full (which seems common), expect to pay $20 for paid parking. Access & Waterpark Experience: Be prepared for a long walk! The entrance is near the Oklahoma River, so depending on where you park, it can be quite a distance. The indoor waterpark is a decent size. It's very humid inside (listed at 82°F). You enter from the second-floor food court area -- stairs lead down, or there's a long walk to a ramp for accessibility. Many rides have a 280 lb weight limit, which limited options for me as a larger person. They do have scales available to check. Highlights for us: The High Tide wave pool is nice (max depth 5 feet), though the water temperature fluctuated throughout the day. Splash Falls (kids area) is large with warm water and plenty of slides and play features. The Enchanted River (lazy river) has very cold water. We enjoyed the Tidal Twist (700 lb limit) -- it was fast and fun, though there's a steep climb to reach it. My wife and daughter loved the Whipsplash slides. My wife also relaxed in the adults-only hot tub on the second floor, which overlooks the wave pool. Free life jackets are available in many sizes if you forget yours. We did experience some issues with the pool chemicals -- they burned my face and eyes, and my daughter developed a rash under her arms. Overall: Despite a few drawbacks (slow service, chemical irritation, and the long walks/parking situation), we had a good time and would go back. It's a solid indoor waterpark option in the area, especially for families.

    Let's get the good things about Classen Inn out of the way: you get what you paid for. It's a…read moredecent "good enough" inn that provided "good enough" service and amenities, that is, if you're OK with getting bare minimum. Classen Inn is definitely an experience I don't regret trying; but it's not a place I'd go back to. The room is pretty; but a pretty room can only do so much if comfort and safety is jeopardized. (See attached for my room). It's cute and a wonderful aesthetic for photos. However, I'm glad I brought my own hygiene kit. Toothbrush & toothpaste weren't provided, and the body soap container was empty. There was trash/napkins inside the bin. The bed's mattress has seen better days. While I showered, some worm/bug was crawling on the tile floor. At 10AM next morning, I walked to my car and saw a homeless man sitting near the entrance of the Classen Inn office talking to himself. The Inn is not exactly located right at the heart of downtown, so just be cautious of your surroundings. If you're looking for a one time experience of a retro design inn, this is a good start, but I'll be looking elsewhere in the future.

    First I'll state the obvious: The Classen Inn is cute. As shown in the photographs, they've put a…read morecoat of bright-colored paint on a neglected '60s motel and done a lot of work to modernize the place. But a few years in, the new owners seem to have dropped some of the amenities originally offered. Our room was colorfully decorated. The retro mural is fun. The retro bench is less so; it's the only seat in the place besides the bed, and it's not adequate for sitting with a book or computer--and it's definitely only for one. The bed, though billed as a queen, seems to be full-size. The a/c worked just fine and was easy to adjust with the remote. We kept the fan running around the clock because the room was stuffy. We didn't make coffee in the room because the apparatus provided didn't look adequate for the job. I see some other reviews mentioning the cheeky art in guest rooms... I'm not offended by it; it seems incongruous with the building's era but no biggie. Finally, the much-acclaimed Superette was locked up, from our evening check-in through our late-morning check-out. The patio space looked to be available; we could've brought our own drinks and snacks and hung awhile there. There were no in-room snacks mentioned in earlier reviews. There was no friendly staff on hand--just emailed instructions. In all, this was a fine place to stay. The price seemed more appropriate for a place with a few more extras. If the price works for you, give it a try!

I loved Park House the restaurant, and had many fun times there, but I do think that this spot being an Events Center is its rightful place as a treasure in our city. Architecturally, this place is so beautiful, and also such a great set up for an event location. The bar area is naturally separate from the rest of the restaurant, so a cocktail hour is easily contained within the bar and cocktail area. When it was time to open up the assigned seating, which fanned out from a fun dance floor and DJ area in the middle of the room, we found our seats easily and could see the head table and all the action on the dance floor. Offering a panoramic view of the Myriad Gardens and the city beyond, you get both the view of the park and all it's natural beauty, plus a view of the Colcord, the Devon tower and the rest of the city beyond. I can't think of any other place in the city where you can find such a perfect mix of natural and manmade beauty nearly everywhere you like. If you're a little bit country and she's a little bit rock and roll, this is the wedding and reception venue of your dreams. Add to that features like a great set up for guest drop off and valet parking, you'd be hard-pressed to find a better location for private events in OKC.
