Visit time - 25th May 2014
Trip type - Family
Summer vacations are going on and we have relatives visiting our place.
With the scorching sun overhead, it becomes difficult to even step out. After discussing beaches, forts and hill stations, we decided to beat the heat in water park.
We stay at wakad, closest water park to our place is 'Sentosa'. Sentosa is located in Ravet area, can be easily spotted as its on Mumbai-Pune Expressway.
There are no options to commute by public transport/ no direct buses. So we booked a taxi and traveled on our own. It takes around 1/2 hr to reach there.
The entry ticket costs ₹ 300 for adults. Entry for kids less than 2.11ft height is free, between 2.11ft to 3ft is ₹ 250 and above 3ft is charged as adult fee i.e.₹ 300
One can opt entry with lunch at an additional price of ₹ 170 per ticket ( i.e. ₹ 470 per adult).
Park timings : 10 AM to 6 PM
Attractions -
1. Slide pool - For ones who want adventures, it have 4 slides, depth around 2-3 ft.
2. Still pool - Connected to Kids pool, is for ones who want to enjoy swimming, depth is up to 4.5 Ft.
3. Wave pool - Just as name suggests, waves generated as in sea
4. Kids pool - With 3 small slides, a big fish which spills water every 10-15 min like sudden shower
5. Rain dance floor - a circular floor surrounded with water fountains. If its sunny, one can enjoy little rainbows when dancing on DJ.
6. Toddler's Play area - Some swings and slides
Services provided inside are -
1. Lockers on rent
2. Shower rooms and toilets
3. Swim wear on rent
4. Eatables - Barf gola, pani puri-bhel puri-chats, lunch (if you have opted while entering)
Rules and regulations -
1. Food- It is not allowed to carry eatables with you, but I saw many people bringing in snacks and having it there.
Note that there was no tea/coffee :(
There is a small snack center located just outside the park, which caters vada pav, bhajji, tea, cold drinks. But since re-entry is not allowed, we could enjoy tea only after we left the park.
You should carry some milk/baby food while going there with babies.
2. Swim wear - Entry in pool is restricted without swim wear. I went with family, and none of us wore swimming suits. We were wearing salwar-kurti/ pajama-tshirt.
Surprisingly, we were still allowed to even take rides.
My mother in law was not comfortable wearing salwar-kurti even, she was wearing sari and was allowed to enjoy wave pool (May be because she was sitting very close to shore, not sure if someone missed to point us out)
3. Shade/Chairs - There are limited chairs. Was good that we carried our own picnic mat and used the same.
Suggestions :
Its good even if you reach there after 1 PM, post lunch. Every attraction is operational for limited time, and at a time one of the pool/attraction is operational. To enjoy the place completely, proceed to respective pool as it is announced as OPEN.
Overall a clean (Pools are clean, Washrooms are not that clean, but can take that as exception) and good place to visit, provided you don't have higher expectation set- Don't think that it is like water kingdom, but is decent enough to enjoy.
