Both water park and mini golf course, Golfland Sunsplash has SO much to do! Laser tag, go cart races, bumper boats, and even a freefall ride that will make you scream, you will end up having a thrilling day and going back to the hotel exhausted. The castle houses a giant arcade where you can play new and retro video games, as well as take a meal break. As for the waterpark, the Lazy Pool is excellent if you just want to completely relax, but if you’re looking for a bit more excitement, try the Stormrider for a raft ride with steep drops or, only for the bravest, the Revolution which sends you down a nearly vertical tunnel for 7 stories!

This indoor amusement park is especially great if you have younger children. With bungee jumping and zip-lining available, all ages can have fun, but young kids will enjoy exploring the massive tree in the middle of the building, as well as going down the various slides.

This park literally has something for everyone. Young children will enjoy riding the train or playing bumper boats, while older kids can go on more thrilling rides like Parachute Tower. Adults can indulge in the climbing wall, or Rock and Roll, a dizzy ride – do this before lunch. Afterwards, take a pedal boat out so you can enjoy the beauty and peace of the lake.
