Lots of seating available and we are lucky enough to get seats under the shaded umbrellas. Clean; has burger restaurant on site and overall well maintained and plenty of lifeguards too. They do a potty break for people in the wave pool so it allows workers to take restroom break and forces parents to take kids to the restroom to go pee and poop before returning to the pool: that's a good strategy to ensure the pool remains clean of any accidental poop from tiny kids.

Needs some work on the bottom of the lazy river and the surfer area. Not enough rafts were made available most of the time we were there. Some people were going against the flow in the lazy river (which is stated in the rules that it is against the rules to do so) and lifeguards did not enforce this policy. Otherwise, it is a nice small park for the area.

An update is long overdue...and it's 3 stars. I should've written an update when it was a solid 5…read morestars but this summer (2025), the City of San Marcos partnered with Premier Aquatics and unfortunately, sometimes with change, things go a bit downhill. Before Premier Aquatics, there were plenty of chairs and lounge chairs in the shade, the pool was open during the summer 7 days a week, 12-5, and every Friday night was 'Family Nights' from 6-8. The lifeguards brought out a huge obstacle course and all the kids loved it. Not anymore. The pool is open less hours for recreational swim. M-Th 12-3. F-Su 12-5. There are way less chairs, and no more 'Family Nights'. It's pretty obvious why the rec hours are limited...Premier Aquatics makes more money off swim lessons than they do with recreational swim. They offer more pool passes at different price points, but none of them are through the City of San Marcos. You're buying it straight through Premier Aquatics. My kids still enjoy it, but....meh. 3 stars.

The ac leaked by the doorway, the toilet wouldn't flush properly, and the room had no blankets for the pull out couch. When we asked for more blankets however, a worker brought some so that was nice. The Omni has multiple pools, one with water slides, but I much prefer the smaller pools scattered around the grounds. Everything here is overpriced. Smoothie was 15 dollars. The only reason I got it was because I had a free drink voucher.

We came to stay over our son's spring break this year. The grounds are nice and extremely large!…read moreUnfortunately, for me, that's where it ends... our room was situated at the far end of the resort, on the golf course. Golf course maintenance crews are up and at it, around 6:30 in the morning(!!). Needless to say, we didn't get much sleep and, when asked to change rooms, they were booked and had nothing available for us. As for dining... "room service" is a joke where you order online, get charged $40 for them to bring it to your room and, it's cold by the time it gets there. We had Easter brunch at Vue which was just ok. I got the eggs Benedict which, when cut open, revealed clear runoff of barely cooked egg - instantly made my hunger disappear. My husband's breakfast, the chorizo scramble, and son's breakfast, pancakes, were totally fine and edible. For the amount of money it is to stay here, I think it's 1000% overrated and we'll skip it next time we're in SD, for sure. There's really no need to come here.

OMG, where do I even start?! We stayed in the 2‑bedroom, 2‑bathroom suite at Grand Pacific…read morePalisades Resort, and it was literally perfect for our family of six! The condo was HUGE, super clean, and had everything we could possibly need -- honestly, I think we could've hosted a small party in there! The location is insane -- walking distance to LEGOLAND, and there's even a secret pathway that leads straight to the parking entrance. Talk about convenience! No "are we there yet?!" from the kids because it was just a hop, skip, and a jump away. The resort itself is amazing -- our suite was right by the playground, so the kids were entertained while we got a tiny breather. And the best part? We could watch LEGOLAND fireworks right from our room at night. Ping pong, games, and laughter galore -- this place is basically a kid paradise... and a slight adult paradise too because the beds were comfy. And the staff? Absolutely the sweetest ever! They were so friendly and helpful, and one of the ladies even went out of her way and bought a cake for my daughter's birthday -- I mean, can you even?! That was the sweetest thing ever and really made our trip extra special. and not to mention smore packages and u can have smore night!! Price-wise, the 2‑bedroom, 2‑bathroom suite for a Friday/Saturday night is typically around $400-$500+, depending on the season -- but honestly, with everything you get, it's worth every penny for a stress-free, fun-packed family getaway. Bottom line: If you're heading to LEGOLAND, stop looking -- this is your spot. Amazing location, amazing suite, amazing staff, and unforgettable family memories!

Like i know it's marketed towards children but the general lack of thought when it comes to the details of the park is kinda annoying. like the merch is abysmal at best. Non of their shirts are cute or reference funny parts from the movies, and similarly the music they play is so boring. it's just classical music. like are you trying to put my to sleep bro, every movie lego comes out with has a fire soundtrack and we're not using it??? and additionally one of legos biggest attractions is the miniature world/ diorama but it's literally filthy. I literally saw the diorama 10 years ago and it's just as nasty. there's literally cobwebs in between each structure and dust collecting on every surface. The structure with water features were covered in layers of debris that I know have been there for at least a couple weeks. I know it's probably costly and time consuming to clean lego structures but is this not lego land. i'm paying 100 dollars per person to see the MGM grand covered in leaf litter. it's just unfortunate. wipe it down, spray it i don't care just do SOMETHING. actually i do care.

We went back-and-forth with if we wanted to stay there and pay that cost, or if we should stay at another local hotel for our visit. We are glad that we stayed at the hotel. Though the price is high, they provide a lot of great entertainment and things for the children to do right within the hotel. Also, the theming for the hotel is so cool for kids. We loved that there were two separated spaces for adults and kids. We ate at the hotel as well for breakfast and dinner. The food was good enough. It wasn't great, but it wasn't bad at all.

You were the cherry on top to our day!! Thank you for being who you are. You are what makes this world that much better! We are all extremely happy and satisfied with our experience with you today. Your hard work and effort deserve recognition and hopefully a raise!! It's amazing to see that even after a very long and tiring day you continue to give a perfect 10 with customer service!!

The weather was cool, there were no big crowds, and the wait times for rides were only about 5-15 minutes instead of the usual 45+ minute waits you find at other parks. My granddaughter had an absolute blast, and honestly, so did we! The water park is a great addition inside Legoland, and they even have an aquarium, which was a lot of fun to explore. We spent 8 hours there, and it didn't even feel like it. Did I mention it wasn't crowded? That's a huge from me! If you're looking for a fun family day, Legoland is definitely worth a visit.

I mean, when I was a kid...I was happy to use any pool over the summer...but my kids have a choice of fantastic city owned pools. Las Posas pool is smaller than Woodland Park pool- there's no diving board but it's heated and there is a fun splash pad. The shaded area is smaller than woodland park pool...something to keep in mind. The lifeguards are friendly and enforce rules. I prefer Woodland Park pool simply because it's closer to my house and there's more shade, but Las Posas still earns 5 stars!
