I do not understand all of the negative reviews for this place! There are very few water parks of this caliber within the city of Dallas that are as affordable as Bahama Beach. Admittedly, the ticket buying process is a bit cumbersome on site. And parking is ridiculously inadequate. BUT, once you actually get inside, it's so much fun. I'm always able to snag a seat in an unreserved area to chill in the shade. And they also have lockers for your stuff for a small free. Some of the grown-ups swim attire on a recent visit was a little....questionable but nothing you wouldn't see at the beach on vacation. The best part? Dallas residents get discounted entry (as we should!). Highly recommend for keeping the kids busy over the summer (come early!) read more

Sigh . . . The City of Dallas is talking about closing down community pools are prides themselves about this flagship water park. However the cost keeps going up, and the amenities keep going down. Now they charge $20 no matter the size of the cooler. You can't bring in your own float devices but at the same time, there's never enough tubes for the lazy river. This last visit, I want to say there were 10 and the life guard mentioned people taking them out the water to their tables & chairs. There were also lots of tubes deflated. The structure needs to be updated and walls are crumbling and falling apart. Seriously, this place needs a make over especially if we are closing the affordable community pools and pushing folks to these places. read more

This place is gross. We brought my toddler son here last Sunday. By Thursday, he was running a fever and today his doctor confirmed he has hand, foot and mouth disease. He has not been exposed to any other kids since our visit to this Waterpark. My husband noticed the water in the Lagoon pool looked dirty. We shouldn't have gotten in the pool. Never going here again. read more

Fun place for children, but most of the time it's extremely crowded! Make sure to reserve yourself a cabana so you'll have a place to rest.

This is a very pricey place to take your children out to for enjoyment. $60 per person. I had a party of 4 teenage girls they enjoyed the two hours of fun there so money well spent. My upset is I had to pay full price too, I didn't swim or engage in anything, just to sit and watch my grandchildren and their friends have fun and look out for their safety. I told them that I was there to watch didn't matter. Not fair at all read more

It was so fun you should go there the life guards were very nice and the water slides and pool weee very great m. Coming back soon

We rented a pavilion and took young people from our ministry organization. They all had a great time. We really enjoyed the grilled smoked hamburgers and hot dogs. We will go back. read more

I've been bringing my grandkids here for a very long time. The hours are perfect. We all love the new waterslide & swimming area. We always pack our coolers and stay all day. And the concessions are a great price. We happened to go on a day when it was not crowded. We always have a great time. read more

The pizza was horrible and it had stuck to the box. Everyone was disappointed because it was 36.25 dollars

On top of all of the lines being extremely slow my family ended up with strange bug bites literally all over their bodies after getting in the water here. There are bugs in the water. read more

Drove an hour to come to this place. Went on a Sunday and arrived at 12:15. There was already a line starting. The line was taking a long time. I tried to get tickets online while in line and it wasn't going through. My friend tried also and wouldn't go through. 45 min later and almost to the front they tell us the card system is down and it's either cash or to buy online. I told the lady their online seems to be down as well. I heard a few other people having the same issue. No ATM. I had some cash so was able to get in. Couldn't buy water or food in there. I had some water but needed more for myself and my son. The water in the water fountain was so hot and not drinkable. The minimum they should have done is offered water to people in this heat. Kids standing out there in the heat and if you didn't have cash you couldn't get water. It should be illegal to refuse water to anyone in the heat considering this was their problem with the card system being down. So if you decide to visit bring cash and a cooler of water because they won't care if you're out in the heat.. you won't get a $2 bottle of water to save your life. Other than the entry issue the park itself is ok for a water park. My son had fun in the kid area. I had planned on getting a cabana for shade but couldn't do that due to their card system issues. Was able to find some seats. Food is overpriced for what you get and a lot of the items on their menu weren't available. read more

Our family reserved a pavilion for a family reunion. It was great! My one critique is that if you order food in bulk is to order the hotdogs, instead of the cheeseburgers. read more

This is a great Waterpark for the price! I took my six year old nephew here and he thoroughly enjoyed himself. Coconut Cove was a hit for the younger kiddos. It had a variety of kid-friendly slides and the adults could slide on them too! They have several lifeguards and monitors on site. It's a great location for us folk who live south of Dallas. Also, there are plenty locker rentals and they're reasonably priced at $5. I definitely will be returning! read more

Fun place and you can bring your coolers! Price is just right! Making it a fun day trip

very funnnnable!!!!!!! make sure to wear sunscreen when you go. Apply 3-4 times when you're there :)

Nice waterpark & good for hot Texas weather. Reasonably priced. Only thing I didnt like is that they dont have a pool. They have a lazy river, several slides & an area for smaller guests & children, but no actual pool. I still had fun. read more

Bahama Beach Waterpark - The area for kids, that bucket fills then turns over & splashes on everyone waiting below - Water Parks Near Me - Dallas, Texas

Very disappointing. We got to the park and was they closed it 28 minutes later due to the weather. But it didn't rain and we were denied refunds or credits. A lot of families were upset. We should have been given something because the weather turned out nice for the rest of the day. read more

Went on a quick family vacay. This place was perfect due to smaller size and less people than sea world or fiesta Texas. Kids were able to enjoy lazy river and slides. Ate before we went and afterwards so didn't try the food. Had a small shop where you rent a locker and I picked up bottled water and sunglasses. Will definitely be back. Worried about recent review of bugs but that wasn't noted when we were there. I have a 6,7, and 11 year old. They all had fun. My 7 year old is autistic but she could enjoy the lazy river and coconut cove. My 6 year old was 47.5 inches so some workers let her do the 48" rides and some didn't. ‍ read more

I love this place! Second time here and the kids love it too!! Just the right amount of fun!! The food is good and they even have vegan options as well read more

Bahama Beach Waterpark - This place is sooo much fun!!!! #waterbucketdump - Water Parks Near Me - Dallas, Texas

Took a quick trip to this water park on a Tuesday. We were able to park close to the front and pay fairly quickly. Used the coupon to get a discount on the already great price. Food and snack prices were good too. The park was clean and had enough rides and play area to keep my three girls (ages 2, 10, and 17) entertained. I liked the small size of the park- everything was in close proximity. The lifeguards were very attentive. Weekdays seem best. Otherwise, I can see this place getting crowded- causing seating to be limited. Overall, a great value for the money. read more

This was great. Spacious and clean bathrooms and the entire Waterpark. My only complaint we were in a cabana the attendant escorted us to the cabana and disappeared fir our entire visit. My daughter called to no avail. We went and got our own refreshments. Meanwhile, we see folks in other cabanas getting service. Oh well, this will not stop us from coming back. Aside from being dumped by our server it was a great day. The kids had a ball. read more

Had a great time with the family. Good prices, lifeguards were alert, lines moved pretty reasonably. All in all a good place to spend a hot day. The refreshment stand could be managed a lot better is my only issue, but other than that pretty good! read more

We had an awesome day, the park is very well kept, the prices are affordable and you can bring your own cooler for $5 so that is a great option, there are lockers for $5, I loved that they are lifeguards everywhere so that everyone can be safe and making sure there is no running around, the only thing that was upsetting was the food court, they take a very long time to take your order and to make your food, it took them 30 min to get a personal pepperoni pizza when they told me it would be ready in 15 mins, on the other hand the cheeseburger was really good and fast, if you don't like waiting for your food just bring your own and you will have a very enjoyable day here!! read more

Bahama Beach Waterpark - The prices are very reasonable but they just take to much time to make it! - Water Parks Near Me - Dallas, Texas

It is what it is: small, decent value for the price. The upside: not that busy, the staff are friendly and the kids enjoyed the rides. Also, we got 1/2 priced tix off LivingSocial. The downsides: Very small. Only three areas with multiple sides in each. The trio if old fashioned water slides had a LOT of pigeon poo lining the steps all the way to the top. Given what we paid, we got value but we will probably not be back, as its worth the extra dollars to have more attractions. read more

Our first time to the park. We got there a few minutes before it opened and were one of the first families in line. They are having a canned food drive, we brought cans, the ticket girls knew nothing about it. No worries, I explained it, she verified with someone and we got our discount. The gates opened promptly at 10:30, not a minute earlier. The staff was friendly and checked our cooler and bag then we preceded in. We found a table under the umbrellas near the kids area and started our adventure. The kids area is really neat! Our kids age 4 and 6 had a blast. The water was cold early in the morning so we hit the lazy river and then some slides before it got too busy. Everyone seemed to show up around 11:00. Even with all the people it still wasn't too crowded. The lifeguards, for the most part, did a good job keep there eyes on the water. The park got dirty quickly. On the ground and in the waters were all kinds of odds and ends of trash from snacks, toys and personal products. At no time did I ever see anyone clean any area. The water in the kids area seemed to "back up" at the drains and heated up very quickly which in my mind is where harmful bacteria comes from. As stated before, the snack bar takes forever and the quality of food is lacking. But we took a gamble and hit 50/50. The chips and cheese were stale, the fries were okay but one of the two burgers was way overcooked. The slides were fun but need remodeling soon. I would recommend coming when the school buses of kids are not there. Maybe call the park and find out if they have any scheduled that day. I would also recommend going Tuesday-Thursday morning. It is a fun little park that our kids loved since they didn't notice all the things I did. We paid $60 for tickets and food and stayed for 3.5 hours, I feel we got our moneys worth. read more

I took my nieces and nephews with my own little family and we all really enjoyed it! It's super clean, the lifeguards are on point and super SUPER observant. The hamburgers and hotdogs are cooked on a grill right in front of you and plentiful. The water rides were great and water clean and clear from debris. However, aside all the great and awesome fun we had today, the staff at this water park made it even better! The girls at the front check in and working the snack bar were so helpful and patient! I really appreciated this because service with a smile really just tops off your overall experience! read more

Most employees are friendly beside food area need lot of improvement. Got deal with groupon with deal for 6 with meals think it's a steal. At the snack bar, after finished ordered free food but need more employee told me to hang on and shut the window in my face. Sat afternoon out of fries. Grilled food across for the bar and no line ppl stand around and told them what they have couple of us got there first and got skip. Over all price is worth for what I paid didn't get a chance to go to 2 big slides cuz our kids still little and they won't aloud to go one at a time. Maybe other time. read more

A great option for a day of fun. Mainly stayed in coconut cove and lazy river. All the lifeguards were alert and friendly. Coconut cove is a cute place for the kids to explore on their own. The water pressure was extremely hard and needs to be turned down. My kid was walking up the stairs with his hand over his head. Also with the amount of force that comes out I'm glad no one got hurt. The "food area" is just weird with the windows being covered. It would've been nice if someone was trying to remove some of the ants from the lazy river. All in all the kids had a blast and are tired! read more

This park is GREAT!! Comparable to HH but not as expensive. VERY reasonable prices for admission, snacks and locker rental. They DID NOT charge me for renting a life vest for our kids- they were FREE! The inner tubes were just floating around because they were also FREE! HH charges $4 and $6 respectively and you're kinda stuck with them bc you don't want to waste the money. They grill their burgers and hotdogs (Yum!) and the meal (with chips and drink) was still only $7! And I was full... The park is a little smaller, but they had a smaller crowd which I am glad to see ANYDAY! The smaller children are well accommodated. Btw, our son finally felt comfortable in the water here and taught himself to swim! We are getting season passes! read more

Bahama Beach Waterpark - Awesome!! - Water Parks Near Me - Dallas, Texas

My family and I went here today and had a blast. It was our first time and I have got to say I am impressed. It was very clean and everyone was nice. My kids are small so we really liked the kiddie area and the lazy river. We do kind of wish there was a legit pool here, but it was fine that there wasn't. It was great, my husband had the nachos which were good too. We would love to come back again! read more

This my husband and I first year not having a pool at home. We found this place near by and gave it a try. Small but still has a lot of options for slides. The kids area with a big bucket drop was so much fun! We had a blast. The only thing I would change would be to have two snack areas one on each side. The main one gets too busy. read more

we love coming to this water park. it is close to our home. sure beats the long commute to hurricane harbor. plus it is free parking! can't beat that. they allow you to bring your own food or you can buy there at small shop. decent prices and pretty good food. the slides themselves are awesome! breathtakers to say the least. we just bought season passes so we will be back all summer. ps. it's not a ghetto park. because folks will think that just because of the location. trust me, far from "ghetto" haha. read more

Bahama Beach Waterpark - Great view - Water Parks Near Me - Dallas, Texas

1st time going wasn't really impressed on the refreshment stand. The workers was rude and inattentive to customers and they ran out of certain foods because was food wasn't stocked properly but family encouraged me to give it another try still thinking about it read more

Yet another daddy favorite spot for daddy's day out with his friends and kids. Kids look forward to this one and its a nice little water park with friendly staff & lifeguards. Happy Kids + Happy Daddy = Happy Mommy. 4 stars only because once park was closed earlier than the date mentioned on website or groupon. It was a last min group buy on friday noon and it was written on the groupon as well as the site that it is their last weekend of the season! After we bought the groupon, some of us checked the site for the timings to plan our weekend. The next thing we knew they closed the park 2 days before the date mentioned on the groupon. It was an awkward moment for us when we recommended this place & 20 people bought this groupon and it was closed early! No one picked up the phone for refund of groupon when we all tried to reach them & later in next season we had to pay the balance! read more

A very similar waterpark to hurricane harbor just smaller. Has everything you need in a waterpark including a variety of slides. If you want to beat the heat and save money, you should come here. It only cost me $15 to get in and with an id you can get a discount if you live in the city, and you also get a discount after 4pm. So you can be paying less than $10 to get in. I will for sure love to come back to this place if possible. read more

This is a good place to hang out and just lay around on the lawn chairs . The place is not that big so you can sit in the middle and still see what going on with my kids . The restroom and locker is pretty decent . The only downfall is the food purchasing it will take you a while to line up coz who ever takes your money is also the one that's assemble your stuff that you brought . But overall is ok . And you can bring your cooler for $5. read more

We visited on a weekday. The waterpark was great - no lines, clean, lots to do for everyone. I rated it 4 out of 5 stars because of the women's restrooms. They could use some attention. While I understand that this is mostly a reflection of those using them, it should be monitored for those that do keep and want clean restrooms. All in all, it is a nice waterpark, good value. Would visit again, read more

Under 1 Roof's team had the opportunity​ to purchase 70 tickets to the waterpark and the experience​ was amazing! We have located our spot for our annual fun in the sun with homeless children in our community. The staff was GREAT and very helpful with ALL of our request! We had an AWESOME event. Thank you Bahamas Beach Waterpark Team we will return in 2020! The park was clean, water was clear and the lifeguards​ watched the kids for safety. Thanks again Mr. Grayson we appreciate your willingness to assist Under 1 Roof to make this a memorable event! Thanks from the team of Under 1 Roof www.under1roofdallas.org read more

Great water. Friendly employees. Horrible food system. 40 minutes to get food. However, fries given to us 20 minutes before burgers and hot dog done. Have to take hot dog to another place to get the chili. Crazy read more

In the past this has been ok, but yesterday i had to tell the Lifegaurd about theCONDOM in the kiddie part of the pool where the bucket is, He picked it up with his bare hands and didnt even tell anyone, manager ect....Isnt that some kind of health risk? SERIOUSLY GROSSED OUT!! read more
