Daytona Lagoon

Such a great family fun place, wish we lived closer! The kids loved all the different water attractions. They were non-​stop until we left for the day. The admission price was reasonable for the amount of attractions and for the time we spent there (the entire day.) We even thought about upgrading to a family pass so we could go more than once during our trip. The bright color paint jobs make it seem so inviting. My son is still talking about the waterpark weeks later. The adult beverages are a perk and taste delicious. We will definitely be visiting each time we visit our family in Ormond Beach! Highly recommend as a way to avoid orlando traffic and still have a fun day with the children!

03/​29/​2016 — most of the park’s activities were closed and my granddaughters (7 & 10) were very disappointed!

Worst experience of our vacation. TWICE. We checked the website and decided to visit here instead of the big water park in Orlando. Packed a bag, drove here, parked in the pay garage next door. Got inside the building and walked to the admissions desk, only to be told the park was closed. Nothing on the website about it being closed. We had to pay for parking, and worst of all, it was too late to take the kids to the big park. We were told the park would be open the next day. We decided to try again on Sunday, we called on Saturday, were told the park was open, and, just to be sure, called again Sunday before leaving, were told again that the park was open. Drove there, paid to park again, got to the ticket counter, only to be told that only one slide and the lazy river were open. Oh, and tickets would still cost full price (nearly $ 30), oops, so sorry no one told you that the TWO times you called. Only no one seemed even remotely sorry. So we left AGAIN, and paid for parking AGAIN, and had sad disappointed children AGAIN. If this is the best that the new management can do, it is sorry indeed. We are in Daytona often, but my family will be skipping the Lagoon from now on. I’d leave zero stars if I could.

We played at the arcade only. It was pretty big and the kids had a great time. Very reasonably priced on most games. Staff was very helpful, however it kind of smelled musty and some guests of the pool were not dressed appropriately to be around children…

The game is look old. Laser tag (gun and armor) is old. The price is ok (not expensive).

Terrible customer service. The «manager» Warren did not understand basic customer service skills. Wouldn’t accommodate a simple request for a disabled young boy because the system couldn’t handle it. This was after a group of greater than 30 paid for passes for the week.

Go after 3 when the matinée prices kick in. This makes it a great deal. We stayed until the water park closed at 7 and never waited in line for any of the slides for longer than 5 minutes. More times than not, we literally walked right on to the slides. There were many lifeguards, and they were always very observant.

Such a great time for kids of all ages. We always go early to do the waterpark and go carts, then when that Florida rain hits we just head into the arcade and laser tag. There are showers and changing rooms. The bar is great for the adults too. Definitely worth the drive over from Orlando’s east side especially when the Wet & Wild park in orlando always has impossibly long lines.

Most ridiculous place I’ve ever been to. The lack of customer service by 70% of the management and employees is unbelievable. The swipe cards didn’t work, the cashiers couldn’t do a refund for an overcharge. After paying over $ 350 for food, the managers only were willing to serve the food for an hour and then wanted to throw it away which was about 40% of the food. It was asked to box the food and hold it for later. Then they lost it. Then they found it. The GM wanted a gold star or a pat on the back for trying to fix everything that went wrong. And he didn’t do a very good job of that.
Take a trip to Orlando for a water park. It’ll be worth the drive.

Won free tickets here on a photo contest and we decided to check it out.
Not sure if this place would be different in the Summer months but today it was awesome. The park was not overwhelmingly full and my family and I were able to do all the wet activities! The park is smaller than other ones I have been to but it was perfect for an 8 year old! We didn’t get to do the arcade because we were so exhausted lol!
I loved all the seating space the park has and all the tubes available at the lazy river and lagoon! Slides were super fun and water temp was awesome on a hot day like today!
Minutes from the beach and boardwalk!
I find the park to be very reasonable! Lockers are $ 10 but if you bring the receipt back you get the $ 4 deposit back. Tickets are about $ 30 per person. Parking was $ 8 for the 5 hours we were there. The food, well, we ate chicken and waffle fries and it gave me a stomach ache probably because I don’t eat fry food or bec the oil they fried it in was old…
I would like to see better food choices but other than that I can’t wait to return!

This was perfect for kids under 10. The staff and lifeguards were vigilant and everywhere. The water was clean and the attractions were fun. The food was also good and reasonably priced.

We are highly disappointed Daytona Lagoon decided not to open today bc of «weather». It is sunny & BEAUTIFUL outside here. 80’s with no clouds is bad??? We are NOT getting season passes to this place now! They also said not to plan on them being open the rest of spring break. They have only been opened for the season 5 days and closed 2 of those days. HORRIBLE!!!

This attraction is right by the beach. You can park in the garage that is right next to it for a $ 5 fee.
When you first walk in, you enter in a large arcade area which has pretty decent games. They also had laser tag, mini golf and go-​karting which I didn’t experience so I can’t talk too much about it.
The flow of this place doesn’t really seem organize, going from one section to the next. The water park has a nice kid’s area and about 7 – 8 slides. The lazy river is very short, at only 3 feet tall all the way around. The wave pool was at the highest of 5 feet, and the water was warm. Feels like you are taking a bath… It was a hot day, and you would expect to feel refresh jumping into a pool, this unfortunately was not.
It got even worse when attempting to go down in an enclosed slide. The floaties were also a bit deflated and once going down the slide. it was like a hot sauna all the way down. It was not enjoyable. I’m not sure why all the water felt so warm, but it felt no relief from the hot sun.
There is a bar that has a/​c along with pool tables. The set up is a bit weird but I guess its where people can hide to getaway from the sun or just go in the arcade.
I don’t think I would ever return to this place at my own free will. I only came as my husband had a work event held here.

Passed this place many of times but finally decided to check it out considering there are only so many things to do for children in Daytona.
The waterpark area is pretty nice. A little compact but good amount of people on hand working there and supervising. My son was not interested in any water activities. Would of been nice to know this before we paid :/​Children under 3 are free then after that the pricing for the waterpark for kids under 42′ is $ 20.99 and $ 19.99 online. That seems kinda of like a giant increase. Then to do other things like go karts, laser tag and golf is more money.
Got $ 20 in tokens which gave me $ 25 for the arcade. I like that they use debit like cards for everything. The tokens go on there and when you win tickets they just go onto the card so they can just read the card to tell you how many you won. I’d say 40% of games were out. Most of the cool ones cost 1.00 in tokens. Then half the games you do really good at you win like 8 tickets. Lame.
Upon leaving the girl said «oh hang on to your card to get into the waterpark». I told her my son wasn’t interested in going. She gave me a look like «oh maybe I should offer their money back… wait no I won’t». We didn’t ask for it back. Now I wish i would have. It was $ 59.99 for all 3 of use (4yr old, senior citizen and a regular daily admission) to go into the waterpark that we never played at.
Overall a nice place if you plan on spending the day there cause the pricing is ridiculous.

My son wanted to go to this place and so we did. Staff was SO SO RUDE! The wave water was broken. we were told by a lifeguard that he could not go down slide with shorts on however he was wet and had been on every other slide… The food was a joke, most expensive cheeseburger ever and the smallest and grossest too. Laser tag and go carts were fun and the rock climbing too. l Was it worth the $ 200 we spent to get in and on food. Um. NO! Tourist trap, save your money and go to the golf place with live alligators or go to the boardwalk. if you have done those already… save your money and go to six flags or an amusement park. Let me also mention the arcade bites. Some of the oldest games you can find. my son said the games they charge $ 1 for are the same ones at Chuckie Cheese f
or a quarter. They claim to be the biggest arcade in Daytona. if so they are the lamest. The best arcades are the ones on the boardwalk where mom and dad can drink pina coladas and the kids can spend all our money.

Fun for the whole family!

I didn’t get a chance to go to the waterpark, but I did get the 2 hour dry pass! That consisted of a total of 2 hours of go-​karts, putt-​putt, and laser tag! The go-​kart track was GREAT (HINT: The 00 car is the fastest!), you got 6 laps, which is a lot better than most places! The putt-​putt was a great little 18 hole course, although sometimes challenging! And finally the laser tag! It was SO fun! (HINT 2: It’s blacklight laser tag, so DON’T WEAR WHITE!) I would surely go back to this place!

The place is small to say the least. Great for kids under 8 perhaps, but anyone older than that will be bored quickly as there isn’t a lot to do.
Food court employee Christopher M. was a rude little thing too, was not pleased by any means with his attitude. There are too many people on the unemployment lines for this one to be ungrateful to have a paycheck!

One of the best water parks I have ever been to but the food isn’t fantastic.

This review is based just on the arcade. They had a pretty nice arcade at Daytona Lagoon (reminded me of Gameworks though with less machines). We were looking for some fun games to occupy our time after a day at the beach. After checking out the two arcades on the beach and deciding to look for more we decided to visit Daytona Lagoon. They had a selection of games, but unfortunately their DDR systems screen was completely toasted (and we wanted to play so bad =[). When we walked over to the back part of the arcade we found many arcade machines were turned off or broken and that is never a good thing to see in an arcade. Maintenance should pick up the slack and either fix those machines, sell them off, or remove them from the arcade area because it is disappointing when you are looking for games to play and all the good ones are broken…
We do want to visit the water park, play mini-​golf, and race go-​carts some day though. That looked pretty fun and was $ 19.99, not a bad price. We saw laser tag inside the arcade as well that we weren’t able to try.
