almost drowned in the wave pool also do not go down the pink slide it made my hand numb for so long I would not go here the life guards were mean here when we were entering they were yelling at us read more

I read some of the negative reviews and I personally cannot agree with them. The place was very clean, people were very nice. The children had a great time. We checked the weather before we went so that we could fully enjoy our time there. The price was excellent. I'm from New Jersey and according to Jersey prices this was almost free. (lol) The park size was great for small to teenaged children. We are planning on returning in July 2025. Thank you for a great time and we look forward to our return visit!!! read more

I permission from one of the lifeguards to use my and then lifeguard lady came up and said, and she started embarrassing. Me blowing her whistle super loud at me saying take them off and she really and I'm super sad. And then my paid $40 and we weren't even over there for five minutes. We were over there for only seven minutes read more

False advertisement, would not honor thier own word's on thier own website. It says ,Season passes are sold anytime the park is open to the public. Bs. Me & glam baby have never been there before & will never be back. The manager said she was sorry that ,that was still on the website, but they where not sell anymore Season passes & she would make sure that would be taken off the website, well thanks for nothing, biatch. read more

As a BLACK Woman I kept my cool because I didn't want to feed into the stigma of how African Americans react and responsd to situations but this place is the ABSOLUTE WORST! Inconsiderate policy, it was very DANGEROUS thundering and lightning and you are not accommodated unless they "close the park" meaning all the attractions and pools will be closed but you can sit under whatever until it stops is their way of keeping your money! Yes there is always a chance of rain however if the park opens from 12-5p if it STORMS 1:15-3:30p why risk taking your kids there for 1 hour for their feelings to be hurt! I'm only upset because I paid the money for a Non-refundable cabana for my kids birthday! once I saw it was thundering and lightning I choose not to risk taking my 2 year old and 7 year old to the park for 1 hour. I did not ask for my money back! I wanted to reschedule to another weekend but the manager said absolutely not because It was the end of the day by the the rain cleared and I was able to get in my vehicle SAFELY and come to the park mind you when you call the number listed for water world NOBODY answers it's an automatic line that never guides you to a real person! If it had I would've spoken to someone as soon as they opened! This place is just super inconsiderate! read more

We drove from Ozark and we're at the ticket booth at 4:25. Park closes at 5:00pm and we were looking to get about 20-30 minutes with our 2 year old in the kid section. We were told that "we already closed the gate. We stop selling tickets around 4:15." This isn't posted anywhere, not online, not at the gate, nowhere. Now our daughter is upset and crying. We just walked away. Good job Waterworld. read more

They asked about my top. I told them it's a racerback swim top. They said it's a sports bra. Actually it's a professional swimmers top. They wouldn't allow me in the water anyway. One life guard verified it was a swim top. Three others said well you cant be in the water. I have never been so disrespected after spending money for me and my family to be there. I would never recommend this place to anyone. Its run by a bunch of teenage "know it all" punk kids. 10 minutes before that my kids had 10 taken by an employee clearing off their food on the table. My son returned to the table after disposing of his trash to find a kid clearing his drink off he asked about his money and the employee stated there wasnt any money on the table. Good job for stealing from a 10 year old and not knowing about real swim wear if it's not a skimpy bikini. This place sucks. read more

Oh boy, this review has been festering for at least two years now. The establishment known as Water World is the bane of my existence, my arch nemesis that truly wants to watch me fail. This place is an open hazard, with fecal matter in the water, searing hot sidewalks that cause 2nd degree burns, and a rough surface on the triple slides that snags skin and rips it clean off. Also, just look at the main attraction! That slide, the "Great White," has the potential, as it has proven before in a tragic accident, to fling people off of the top and over the parking lot. The incident was a terrible situation, as it ended with two park goers falling down to the asphalt and splatting like insects. Anyways, you should also imagine how many people have contracted E. coli from the water of Water World. To wrap this review up, I'll share a little remix that I co-created with a friend of mine of the classic Water World song. Enjoy. Water World, Water World For every little boy and every little girl You just might die on the Great White Slide Or contract a disease from the kiddie pool fun It's fun for no one At Water World Water World, Water World For every little boy and every little girl You just might die on the Great White Slide And join the dead bodies rotting in the sun It's fun for no one At Water World read more

Not the water world of 20+ years ago but still a fun time. Took my kids today to recreate some memories of my childhood. Still have the hot blue carpet, but now they have lounge chairs so you don't have to lay on your towel on the carpet. Bath house was pretty clean when we got there this morning, was a bit of a wreck when we left. All employees we encountered were super friendly and helpful. Especially after a group of kids came over and took all our tubes while we were eating lunch. You have to rent your tubes for the wave pool just like old times so that's why I was so upset about our tubes going missing. The three old slides that had the rubber rafts were closed. Apparently they are closed for good, which is sad because they were super fun back in the day but we were told they are super unkept so dangerous. I would hope they would redo them because they were super fun. The big slide thing was crazy scary. The attendant was tethered to the slide so that was a little unnerving. Rode the crazy drop, that thing took several years off my life, screamed the entire time but wow kinda scary fun. Though my family said I looked like I was going to pass out at any moment. Take cash, they charge additional fees if you use your debit card. Honestly though it wasn't that much, and was cheaper than the atm fee. The kiddie pool was super cold, which was odd considering the wave pool was warmer, but ok. And the lifeguard there was serious about her job. My daughter was about a half inch taller than the height limit and so she wasn't able to slide or play on the equipment. There were a couple kids her same height playing, but whatever. No worries, she had a good time in the wave pool. As the day went on the pool got more and more interesting with things in the pool. Bandaids, straws, Capri sun straws. Maybe the lifeguard who is walking around in the pool could have a dip net to help with this issue. For a cheaper pool day this place works. If you are looking for more of a water park, I would recommend headed down to Shipwreck Island or Wild Adventures. read more

Definitely recommend the Platinum season pass. We had already gotten our $ worth in the 2nd weekend of them opening. You get a pic ID for every family member with the season pass. We like to go towards the end of the day about 2-3 hours of them closing so the crowd is mostly gone. My 2 year old loves the wave pool since it is zero depth entry, she can sit in just an inch of water and loves it! Then there are 2 water slides, great for kids, nothing fast or scary. The kiddie pool has 2 mini slides, a waterfall mushroom, and beach balls for fun. Then there is the Great White that is like a half pipe water slide. You can bring your own cooler in with food and drinks, which makes for a great picnic or party. read more

We had a BLAST at Water World in Dothan! The only thing I missed was having more shade. There was also a large group of children brought by buses the day we went (a couple hundred extra kids) which made the wave pool a bit crowded, but it was still a fun day. read more

I LOVE WATER WORLD! Such a great and awesome place for the family! And as to the other review talking about "fecal matter in the pool".. I have never seen or run into and I do know for a fact that at water world, they take the cleanliness of the park VERY SERIOUSLY! Ask the employees who come in two hours early and stay an hour late to clean. They work so hard to keep the place clean and beautiful and safe! So I am a big fan of water world and I make sure my family has season passes every year! read more
