Cabanas @ Aquatica - Has Anyone Rented One? About This Page:

[soccermomof2]

Has anyone had the opportunity to rent a cabana at Aquatica? I was thinking about renting one for our August trip, but they price seems a bit steep. Is is worth an extra $175.00 for the day?

Any thoughts would be greatly appreciated.

I think they're nuts. I have a room at The Hard Rock for $207. So $175 seems a bit crazy just for day use of a cabana. That's more than alot of hotels. So, no, I really don't think it's worth it.

We live in a resort community here and the folks who are renting across the street from us who have been here for a week (and still have a week to go) told me a few nights ago that Aquatica was their favorite water park thus far (I think they went to that and TL, BB)- and that they plunked down the $$ for the cabana. The husband wasn't sure if it was worth the $$ but I can tell you his wife said it was worth every penny, especially since the park closed due to capacity shortly after they arrived. She mentioned there being a fridge with all kinds of drinks and stuff in it but didn't tell me much more than that.

Personally, I'm not sure I could do it but then again, that kind of privacy among the masses would be quite nice.

We rented one in March and I recall it being only $150. We also rented one at Adventure Island in Tampa. Pricey, yes, worth it, yes. At both parks they're located near the wave pools off on their own so they're a little private. They have canvas sides which can be opened or left closed. You can fully enclose it to change in. Check the website for the complete of amenities but as I remember we had a couple of lounges and low pool chairs, there was a fan, a fridge w/bottled water and sodas (12 total I think), a towels, Panama Jack sunscreen samples, and access to a locker. You can order lunch from a menu and it's delivered to you in a cute picnic basket (order early, it takes a while), you can get your lunch from one of the restaurants and bring it back to your cabana, buy beers and keep them cold in the fridge. If you think you're interested book it on line as you might arrive to find them all sold. Adventure Island just put them in, 4 total, and each day we went, we got one upon arrival but all 4 were sold by mid morning. Aquatica has twice as many so you might have better luck taking your chances upon arrival if you're not sure about it. There's someone monitoring the area by the cabana so only cabanas folks can come into the area which is nice. At Adventure Island you're given a wristband for entry into the area. I can't remember that being done at Aquatica but the park had just opened and they might do it now. We'll be going to one if not both of these parks again next year and will get cabanas again.
