If waterparks are your th8ng....
We had an amazing time....so many rides, and not enough time. We boughtbthe express tickets for the 10 and 12 year old. For the 6 year old chose not to, and it prov3s to be the right decision.
We hired a family cabana for the day, which was great as we had a dedicated area to oursleves, with a locker, towles, water, fruit platter and a butler to tend our every need.
Sam (our butler) was AMAZING, friendly, helpful, and was great with the children.
The cabana was a great idea.....it was the meeting spot as people went around doing their own thing.

Slide paradise
A great idea in June during the week because it is not as busy as in the high season.
Since you have to book everything separately: towels, lockers etc., it is almost worth booking a cabana for a little more money if you are traveling in a group. Then you have shade and a cooler as well as a large fruit platter.
The Fastpass is a good idea when it is full because you are then pulled over a conveyor belt onto the slides of the Neptune Tower without leaving the water, and you don't have to queue at the Poseidon Tower either.
Water shoes (not flip-flops) are really recommended, the paths are too hot to walk on and you usually get on the slide somewhere different to where you get off - without shoes it can be very painful.
