If you live in the neighborhood, you absolutely want to become a member of the KAPOLEI Rec Center, regardless of whether you own or rent. The amenities are fantastic, especially the pool, which is a lifesaver during this hot summer. The Rec Center offers a variety of events like dive-in movie nights and holiday celebrations, which are great for bringing the community together. They keep everyone updated with social media posts, so it's easy to stay in the loop. Staying active in your community is the best way to stay connected with your neighbors, and it's wonderful for the kids. The neighborhood watch outings are also a great way to meet people and help keep the area safe. Overall, the KAPOLEI Rec Center is a cornerstone of our community, offering amazing amenities and events that enhance our quality of life. Highly recommend joining!!

Recreation center is very nice and the staff here is very accommodating. They let the entertainers in through the back door to avoid eye contact setup mode with the guest. Lots of parking for everyone. Great for 1st Birthdays, Graduations, or any event. Facility itself is clean and very well maintained. Theres a community pool with lifeguards on duty. Tonight, we had a 1st Birthday celebration with lots of entertainment. Djing, Magic Show, Dancers, balloonist, photo booth and more. The only draw back is that they only allow you to setup 1 hour prior to the start of your event.

Pool is nice and big. I feel safe taking my kids here because they have lifeguards on duty. They do interrupt swimming time every other few hours so they can clean up the pool and for their breaks. Spacious bathrooms for everyone to rinse off before and after their swims. Free admission to ID holders and they can bring up to 5 other guests. Like many other facilities, this one also does not allow inflatable floaters but they have very few vests/jacket that fitted my toddler when we took her for a swim. Its one of those things that are already granted to us but we dont take advantage of it so often, thats how it is for us when it comes to the rec center.

Poor staff and management, especially treatment towards residents of this neighborhood. To think…read morethat people who've been living here for 10+ years would be singled out is a bit ridiculous. Not a good look for administrative people to lack relationships with former residents.

Stop! You had me at pool party…read more First time here and celebrating a birthday. This is a private community area so you need to be sponsored in. It's a decent size that consist of three covered lanais and four small cabanas. The largest lanai where we were at has a regular refrigerator and a sink. The counter top is large and has several power outlets. Also there's a countertop island where the host has placed all the food. The pool is great size. Not too big and not too small. It almost takes up half of the community area. The kids really enjoyed it and surrounding the north side of the pool are lounge chairs. There is a shower between the restroom entrances to wash off the pool chlorine. Security was visible the whole time. Well two guys wearing security labeled tee shirts and taking out the bagged trash people left after cleaning up. I think they are there to enforce the rules and make sure things don't get out of hand. Overall four stars. Great parking and reasonable seating. Not quite five due to long reservation time. and looking for someone to sponsor you in. Great place to celebrate with a small crowd or family. Now to get my feet wet. M

Unrelated to this review for the Makakilo park, I'm trying to get back into writing one review a…read moreday to make up for the slack over the past couple months. Now that I have more time on my hands, I will TRY to write a review everyday. Maybe in hopes to refine my writing skills, too. Lol. Anyways, I thought I'd write about the Makakilo park today. I don't visit often, but it's nice to relax and enjoy good food and company. I used to like the feel at the Kapolei park next to the rec center, but this park is nice as well. One thing I like about it is that there aren't that much people, if you're planning to go in the afternoon to evening time. That being said, you can bring your whole family, friends, and pets to enjoy the whole park to yourselves. Some features of the park: ~Basketball courts, a volleyball court, and tennis courts in the area. There are also nearby restrooms too. However, no seat covers, but there are doors for your privacy. ~Exercise equipment for early bird or late night owl work out. I would really very much appreciate it if these equipment were within walking distance of my house, so Makakilo residents that live nearby the park have a real treat. Monkey bars, climbing ladder, and sit-ups may be done on these equipment and instructions are posted too! ~Playground for the kiddies ~Water faucet for easily accessible water if need be ~Excellent for large gatherings. Just be sure to bring own tables and chairs as these are not at the park ~Wide courts for riding unicycles, bicycles, and scooters! ~Small parking lot, but adequate if carpooling Nonetheless, a nice park for recreation and exercise. There's that added breeze since this park is atop Makakilo. :-)

The entire experience was so much fun from start to finish--beautiful scenery, great pacing, and just the right mix of adventure and relaxation. Morgan was incredibly informative throughout the tour, sharing interesting facts about the area, local wildlife, and history in a way that kept everyone engaged. One of the highlights was kayaking out to Popoiʻa Island (Flat Island), which was absolutely beautiful. Morgan did an excellent job helping us navigate the waters both going out and coming back, making sure everyone felt comfortable and confident the entire time. Honestly, Morgan was the best guide we could have asked for--friendly, knowledgeable, patient, and just all-around awesome. We felt safe, well taken care of, and had such a great time. Highly recommend this tour, especially if you get Morgan as your guide!

I want to say right off the bat, MOVE THE SMOKING AREA. Seriously you guys. How can you put the…read more"designed smoking area" right in the main hub next to the bar. The smoke was going right into the flow rider with children. Please make you cigarette smoking guests go into the parking lot! I live in Sonoma County and recovering from cancer. We have smoking bans in ALL public places. It is ultimately disrespectful to your other paying guests. PARKING LOT!!!! Wet and Wild was definitely the highlight of my son's vacation to the island, besides shark diving in the Northshore. There are so many attractions. Huge slides, wave pools. Areas for tots. Flow riders and more. There is a cute gift shop and cabanas to rent. You do have to pay to park, unless you get a season pass. I highly recommend just buying a season pass. Pays for itself. Safe locker area for your valuables. The staff is super friendly and accommodating. I would have easily given this place a 5 star rating but having my child and I inhale someone else's 2nd hand smoke against our will was an automatic 2 star deduction. Move it to the parking lot! Otherwise, 5 star from me. We loved everything else here.

I'm not sure this place can improve from a 1 star. While on vacation part of the City Pass…read moreprogram is the Wet N Wild water park. Well the fact that they still have this place on the program is a real let down. We looked online and with the information from City Pass we made our way to the Park. When we arrived there was a sign in the gate CLOSED Really??? We looked online again and it's clearly shows that they are open. So we call and get a rude person just telling us the park is closed. No apologies no regrets or regard for a customer or potential customer. Just The Park is Closed. Oh well we will make the most of our day finding something else So now the business gets back and is blaming the City App for the issue. When we called the facility all they said was they were closed no explanation was given. Don't blame a third party for your mistake. As well as I stated the website stated open nothing more was used beyond that. If there was a sign. Out front stating closed for special event we would better understand things but all we got was a closed gate and words on the said closed that's it. Not my idea of a of a professional company. To me this is a group of big time losers.
