I have my son in swimming class, he had a lot of fear to be in the water, we started almost two month ago with the instructor Kayla, she is amazing, she help a lot my son to do it every day talking to him, having patience and doing what she had to do... my son repeat level 1 with her and he did level 2 with Katy, she is nice a a very good instructor too, she is sweet and nice with kids also. Now I am so happy because my son know how to swim and we still working in his fear, but he is more comfortable in the water. I recommend YMCA for your kids to learn how safe their life when they fall in a poo. Is necessary and important in Florida!

We had a fun time. The snacks are quite pricey. But the water is good and the facility is okay. The water in the shower was only hot water. I mentioned it to someone and I hope that they fix it. But the staff is nice

POOL FIVE STARS. My family loves this pool but theres a couple of things that can be better. For one a updated website, online I read coolers were allowed. So I packed a whole lunch, as soon as we walked in, I felt as if we were being interrogated by the manager.NO, HELLO HOW ARE YOU ALL, NO GREETING AT ALL. Instead he asked right away are you members? and said no coolers were allowed. We have a soft, over the shoulder strap Yeti and I was so surprised we couldnt bring it inside. I expressed to him that I was disappointment we had to leave our lunch in the car, he stated its on the sign and that he was sorry.We stayed and tried to find seating, only to notice people with a large red cooler enjoying lunch. I guess those people got lucky?If he would of told us we could still bring in our lunch in a different bag I would of understood. But he wasnt accommodating at all. I was disappointment and sad.Second we have 3 teenage boys who can all swim but they constantly get asked their age by every lifeguard, which is great for safety reasons. But the boys feel as if the lifeguards dont believe them and get tired of repeating their age over and over again when they just want to swim. Maybe a wristband to show theyre over the age would help the lifeguards and allow the boys to enjoy their time.

This is the first time my family and I have come here and we loved it! Wasnt over crowed like CB Smith park. nice and clean. The staff was nice and very helpful. I felt very safe with the amount of lifeguards they had watching the kids.This wont be the only time we come here. Im so happy I saw something about them on Facebook.

Our first time here was last year and my 2 year old had so much fun. They do have a small pool with the slides and it seemed to give him confidence in putting his face in the water and swimm. We spent hours. They do have a changing area and showers. You should bring water and snacks. I didnt see a area to purchase snacks. Great place to take the kids.

Wonderful staff, they watch kids like a hawk. The splash pad is a nice size and kids can spend hours playing. There is a bigger pool and two slides. Stay away during the day in the summer because park is full of the summer camp kids.

GREAT PLACE! One of the only places NOT run by young adults, instead run by ADULTS and real lifeguards who are attentive. All of the staff is efficient, aware, helpful, mature, and understanding. Great place for a kids party you can rent the AC room as backup for bad weather. They watch the weather closely before closing due to lightning/thunder. They do not just throw you out. Lots of fun and space for smaller kids and most of all you feel safe

Great place for kids to learn how to swim. Staff is great and friendly. They have a sprinkler area for the young ones. I think you can pay a fee to use it daily if youre not a member but I have my daughter in swimming classes.

It is a great water park for young children between the ages of 2-10. It has a toddler splash area, with enough space for parents to lounge in the water while their kids play. Also has two slides that kids 42 inches and taller can use. Away from the toddler area has a shaded seated area and two additional swimming pools with a diving board. Has lifeguards on duty as well.

My son loves coming here. Ive been bringing him since he was 2. Hes 8 now & still asks to go back all the time.

Review №17

Kid was not allowed to go down the tube slide with goggles who has severe eye allergy. If this is a new rule, it has to be displayed or told before the line. The kid waited a long line only to be told at the end by the attendant that he cannot go down the tube slide with it. Pretty disappointing and surprising! We have been to many water parks in Florida including almost all in Orlando. Never the kid or adults were denied to use the tubes with goggles. Spoke with the Director who didnt seem to care about the situation. Must need a signnot allowed with gogglesif thats a mandatory thing.

Small but I like that it was late in the season and hardly anyone there. The snack bar ordered pizza from an outside vendor and there was just a few things to snack on. They were closing for the season the next day. The staff was very nice and treated everyone with respect and some where very cheerful. Would go again

Came to the Aquatic Center last week and had an amazing time with my wife and kids. The entire staff was extremely welcoming and friendly. They even provide swim tests for children. They are highly concerned with having a safe yet enjoyable experience. We cant wait to go back!

Very clean. Amazing, friendly staff. Very affordable. I love this mini water park. My daughter, nieces and nephews love it 10 times more than c.b Smith park. Its less crowded. They can really enjoy there water time without long lines and 20 different frustrated life guards yelling at them for every little thing they do. This is our family go to spot. The best

Visited the aquatic center during a kids party, the place was great, the slides and the pools were pristine, staff and lifeguards always had a smile in their faces and there were alert all the time. Thinking of becoming a YCMA member just because of this place .. HIGHLY RECOMMENDED for kids parties during the summer.
