We had the best time at Revel Surf! It was our first time visiting and it exceeded our expectations…read morefor a beach in the desert. We bought the Sunset Beach Pass (discounted price, 6pm to close) and came on a Friday night to beat the heat while avoiding the peak temps of the day. We actually had to reschedule due to a dust storm a week before and the staff was very accommodating. There is something to do for everyone here! Surfing, boogie boarding, playing in the water, cliff jumping, and even volleyball. So much fun! The sand and beach chair area is a nice touch to give it that true beach feel. Being a Friday night, it was very busy and tons of teenagers there. The cliff jumping was packed but still very fun! Plenty of space for older and younger kids to all participate together. Lifeguards are always present. At the end of the night they stop surfing and let everyone go the whole way into the wave pool which is a blast! Probably the most fun part. Only giving it a 4 star for a few reasons. Line/wait was very long even with pre-purchased tickets. Everything is very pricey! Lifeguards need microphones or something - yelling basically was pointless. Felt crammed in the seating area and beach part. No outside beverages, water, or food is extreme for families. Overall, it was a very fun night and awesome way to beach the heat! Would come back again for sure!

My family and I stopped by for their half-day swim (aka the evening session), and honestly, we had…read morea blast. Before we even got in the water, I found myself wandering through the merch shop. I have to give them credit--they actually have some pretty cool stuff. I ended up buying a sweat- and water-resistant hat with a shaka patch on it. Needless to say, I left happy before I even hit the water. The surf lagoon is the obvious star of the show. Having waves crash onto a white sandy beach is a pretty awesome experience, especially here in Arizona. There were plenty of lounge chairs, umbrellas, and shaded areas, so it never felt like we were fighting for space. The diving pool was another pleasant surprise. There are multiple platforms to jump from, and the lifeguards allow enough freedom to have fun without making the experience feel overly restrictive. If you're feeling adventurous, they also offer body surfing and surf lessons. The amenities were solid as well. The bathrooms were clean, spacious, and had plenty of changing rooms and stalls. Lockers are available to rent, which is a nice convenience if you're bringing the family. We also grabbed food while we were there. No, it isn't five-star dining, but that's not why you're here. More importantly, it was genuinely better than I expected for a water park. What impressed me most was the overall atmosphere. It was energetic without feeling chaotic. My family had an absolute blast, but somehow the park still managed to feel relaxing and comfortable--something I can't say about many water parks. We'll definitely be back.

This used to be our go-to pool for a large group of kids ranging from toddlers to teenagers. It was…read morealways clean, fun, and a place where we looked forward to spending our weekly pool days. Unfortunately, our recent visit was a completely different experience. The facility itself is still nice, but the staff training and overall management have dramatically declined. Many of the lifeguards appeared to be very young and poorly trained. Instead of calmly communicating with families, they were constantly yelling through cones, making it difficult to understand their instructions. Even children who are confident swimmers were being shouted at to either stay directly next to a parent or get out of the water if a parent wasn't within arm's reach. The approach felt more intimidating than educational. The most concerning part was how emergencies were handled. A child got a bloody nose, and several lifeguards immediately rushed over, creating unnecessary chaos. During the commotion, another lifeguard slipped while running. The entire pool was then evacuated for about 15 minutes, guests were pushed away from the area, and the fire department was called. The firefighters ultimately left without providing treatment, making the situation seem far more dramatic than necessary. We were there with a friend who works for the fire department, and even he was surprised by how the situation was handled. When I politely asked a manager what had changed, I was told they were implementing new safety procedures because they had fallen behind other municipal pools. While I fully support strong safety standards, there's a huge difference between being safety-conscious and creating an environment filled with panic, yelling, and confusion. My children have never been so uncomfortable or anxious at a pool. Safety should make families feel more secure, not more frightened. I sincerely hope the staff receive better training on communication, professionalism, and emergency response, because this experience was disappointing compared to what this pool used to be.

Gilbert Regional Park is near my house and it's a great spot to workout, play, or relax…read more It features many sport courts- pickleball, tennis, volleyball and basketball. While there's a lot of pickleball courts, I've seen them full with a queue to play. I haven't seen this with the tennis courts or other sport courts. There's a playground with a play structure, swings, slides, a zip-line and more. It's on a hill so there's multiple levels to play on. There's a large splash pad for older children and a separate area for younger children, so less likely your toddler gets run over by a pre-teen not paying attention. The one drawback is there's not a lot of shady places to hide from the blistering summer sun. There's a large grass field but it's sloped and thus not useful for playing flag football or soccer. I believe it's built that way to watch performances at the pavilion. If there are flat grass fields at this park, I have yet to find them; they would be a welcome addition. At the end of the park there's a lake with a walking path around it. The largest ramada is on the lakefront and looks to 100-150 people. They have smaller ramadas around to rent as well. Overall, Gilbert Regional Park is a nice clean new park with many amenities. Everything is still in good working condition and there's a lot of open space where everyone isn't concentrated into a small area.
