We went here for the Dolphinaris swim excursion which was AWESOME! The park itself however is pretty terrible. There are only about 4 slides and a big wave pool and lazy river. The food was terrible and overall after an hour there you will be ready to leave and hit the beach. But, I do recommend there dolphin swim experience...it was super cool and great for those like me who are a little scared to get into the ocean with the dolphins! :)

$49 per person for 4 slides is not what i call value for money. You do get all food and drink as part of this package but after half hour of the slides you might as well eat and drink as much as possible to make this trip worth your while!!!!!

I have been to Cancun 3 times and everytime been to wet n wild and done the trainer for a day programme. It is a fun day out, that will have you going back to your hotel totally relaxed and with a big smile on your face. True the waterpark isn't fantastic and there isn't much for you to do but you're not going for the slides you go for the dolphins and sealions! Yes sealions they are funnier than the dolphins and i would love them to do a sealion trainer for a day. You are pratically with the dolphins for the whole day and get a t shirt and photos to take back with you. My advise to anybody going is cake yourself in suntan lotion as you do not realise how much it gets you while you are interacting with the dolphins. Worth every penny. Im going back this May and will be going back to see oceana and the rest of the crew, hope to see you there!xx

Okay this is my 7th trip to the Cancun area and I always blew off going to Wet'n Wild because of the so-so reviews. But we decided to give it a try and we totally loved it. The little kids swam with the dolphins in the morning then we spent the rest of the day here. If you have younger kids that want to swim with the dolphins that are a little scared of the ocean or lagoon water, then this is a good option. It is an enclosed pool area, so the water is totally clear. Also they have platforms that are pretty shallow, so as long as you are 4 ft you can do the dolphin swim alone. So after we did the swim, we spent the rest of the day at the park. Admittedly there are not a ton of different water rides here, but the ones they have are fun for our kids 8 and 10 years old. My ten year old did the lazy river ride about 20 times. The wave pool was totally fun as well. My younger kid has always been scared of sharks and other sea creatures, so it finally showed her what she has been missing with all the wave actions. The Space bowl ride dumped you out a little hard for the little ones. The tall waterslide was a little intimidating, but the family ride and the one that you rode on with two people were fun for all ages. I think you have to be 46 inches for many of these rides. As far as the food goes, we ate it and it was perfectly fine. I had some nachos, the kids had burgers and fries. They also had fun ice cream for the kids. They enjoyed the all you can eat/drink feature. We certainly go our money's worth for $35. I wouldn't bother with renting the tube for the lazy river. We did rent the locker and they did not charge any deposits on anything. I think this is a lot of entertainment/food/drink for the money and it is so close to Cancun. No 2 hours bus ride and $100 price tag (unless you swim with the dolphins).

I have done Xcaret, Xel-Ha, Garrafon and these are all wonderful experiences..very natural.. Wet'n wild is not very nature oriented but take it for what it is. A fun-filled simple waterpark great for tweener-aged kids. But I have to admit I had a pretty good time as a 40 year old Mom, because the kids we so occupied..the margaritas were free and I kind of liked the lazy river and the wave pool.

Not many things there to do - not that many slides also there are much better places to check out dauphins - these people were very, very rude and not accommodating at all.
