Highly recommended for families, groups of friends, or anyone looking for a refreshing day out.”

“A fun place to explore with your little kids. It is small in comparison to Sunway Lagoon. The wave pool and adjacent children’s slides are the main attractions for kids. Waves are generated every two hours starting at 11:00 AM, with each session lasting 20 minutes. Most of the larger and more thrilling slides require tube rentals. Children’s life jackets are available near the wave pool A half-day visit is sufficient where both adults and their kids can enjoy the place. The staff are all helpful and friendly. During my visit, the restrooms were exceptionally clean, and there were plenty of shower facilities with good water pressure.”

“Overall, the place is great and the services are very good. The availability of amenities such as prayer rooms and bathrooms was excellent. But there are some comments for me Tickets are discounted Because You will pay money to own the float. This is the first time I've seen this system; it's a really strange move. The stairs are in terrible condition; they should try to remove these protrusions from the stairs because they are very painful.”

“A Day at Bertam Waterpark – Fun, Sweat, and a Little Bit of Laughter 🐣 We decided to check out Bertam Waterpark thanks to a Merdeka promo RM100 for 4 people. Sounds like a steal, right? Well... not entirely 😅. 🐣 Once inside, we realized there were quite a few add ons. Wanna try the flying fox? That’s RM10 per person per ride. If you go twice, you get a “discount” at RM15 but the zipline is super short. Tube rental? RM20 with a RM10 deposit. Locker? RM22. So yeah, all those little extras start to add up fast. At least the sling shot ride was free! 🐣 Since we came during peak season, every single slide had looooong queues. Honestly, I felt like the number of slides wasn’t really enough to handle the crowd. We were only there for half a day, and we had already tried almost everything 😅. 🐣 Food wise, as expected from a theme park, the prices were on the high side. And no, you’re not allowed to bring your own food or drinks from outside. Also, there’s not much shade, so the heat really gets to you. My skin literally changed color from the sun hello, tan lines 😭. 🐣 One thing that kind of bummed me out was the attitude of the ride attendants. They didn’t seem very friendly. Maybe it’s the stress from managing big crowds, but still… a little smile doesn’t hurt, right? 🐣 Even though there weren’t tons of attractions, it was still a decent escape to blow off some steam. Just be prepared to do lots and I mean lots of stair climbing. My legs are still recovering 😂. 🐣 The changing rooms and toilets were clean and there were plenty of them, but again, peak season means long waits. Oh, and can we please talk about the lack of hair dryers? That thing is a must have for us ladies after a shower. Total miss there.”
