It was a very flaming afternoon in Bali when we were on our motorbikes and stuck in the traffic of Kuta - so hot that we could literally feel the sun scratching and gashing on our skin. Trapped on Jl. Kartika Plaza, we changed our mind going to relax on the beach and hit to Waterbom instead – a modern day ‘water palace’ and an oasis in the heart of Kuta.
Waterbom hosts many water attractions ranging from slides and rides that provide visitors with hours of guaranteed fun filled with both relaxing and even adrenaline-pumping activities. The slides and rides in Waterbom are built and maintained to strict international safety standards; thus ensuring risk-free twists and turns for all of the visitors. Situated within 3.8 hectares of lush tropical surroundings, visitors are also given the options to set their own pace for a day of fun in the sun or relaxation under the shades.
Amongst the attractions that would make your heart beats faster from excitements are the Smashdown and Boomerang. Smashdown is an eight-storey straight slide with a steep 60-degree angle that assures visitors a top 70 km per hour speed as they hit the slide and smash straight down. Boomerang, which is the latest addition in the park, twists the visitors down from 20m in the air and sweep them again straight up to catch the skies. These two attractions are, however, not suitable for those having any heart problems.
For those lazy enough or don’t have the courage to hit the water on the bottom or get flown up in the air, Waterbom provides the Lazy River for a leisurely drift or a tranquil dip in the Pleasure Pool and its nearby thatched gazebos to catch a breath. Visitors can sit down and have a casual meal or grab a snack in the Food Court that offers Balinese favorites, Italian staples, French pastries, Indonesian delights and even gourmet hotdogs – which is perfect for those hungry for a culinary adventure.
Once the tummy business is satisfied and the energy has been restored, then it’s time to get back to the playground and get a little dizzy from the twists and turns (and shouts) on the Raft River and Macaroni Tube. Visitors need to hold on tight to their tube raft as they wind their way through back-to-back curves and 360-degree turns on the Raft River. The Macaroni Tube is there for those craving for more twists and turns through the lush jungle of Waterbom where the trees hover above and around, elevating the thrills of the tropical wilderness adventure.
Relaxing activities are mostly centered at the sunken tropical Splash Bar where the visitors can satisfy their thirst with many drinks available: blended, shaken or stirred. Waterbom’s Balinese therapists are also on standby at the park’s Spa to give visitors’ bodies a little break through a full body aromatherapy massage.
So, lets’s get splash…
Cheers
