We came with our three kids (ages 4, 7, and 10) and genuinely had a fantastic day from start to finish. The hotel pickup was smooth and the air-conditioned minibus was a lifesaver — our driver was friendly and made sure everyone knew what to expect before arriving. Once inside, the sheer variety of attractions kept all three kids happy at the same time, which as any parent knows is basically a miracle: the little one was obsessed with the Masha and the Bear area and the circus show, while our older two were riding the water slides on repeat and begging to go on the rollercoaster again. The wave pool was a huge hit for the whole family, and we loved that there was a heated pool option so the youngest stayed comfortable throughout the day. The dolphin and beluga whale show was genuinely impressive and held even our four-year-old's attention completely — we weren't expecting it to be that good.
Food and drinks are very expensive inside the park, so budget for that if you're feeding a family — we spent more than we anticipated on just lunch and a few snacks. The transfer back to the hotel also felt slightly rushed at the end of the day, and we would have liked just another hour or so in the park.
