When we holiday in Bali the number one thing on our list of things to do in Bali with kids, is a visit to Waterbom Bali.

Over the years I have ventured to Waterbom 6 times so have lots to share on all things related to a great day out Bali Waterbom Park.
Check out this ultimate Waterbom Bali guide if you are planning a visit and also check out our blog posts from 2012, 2013, 2015, 2016, 2017 and 2019.

Where is Waterbom Park Bali?
Water bom park is located in Kuta, Bali, Indonesia and is close to shops, restaurants and hotels of Kuta and Tuban. It is directly across from Discovery Mall and easy to get a taxi to.

Waterbom Bali Opening Hours
Waterbom Kuta is open from 9am to 6pm everyday including Christmas Day. The only exception is Nyepi Day (Day of Silence) where the park and the whole island is shutdown with nothing open not even the airport. This date changes each year but is usually in March.
Waterbom Bali Discount Tickets
If you love to save money then the best place to find cheap Waterbom tickets online is through Klook. I would highly recommend pre-booking tickets as the queue for the pre-purchase counter is always a lot shorter. We haven’t ever purchased the VIP pass and I’m not sure if it’s worth the extra cash.
BOOK WATERBOM TICKETS THROUGH KLOOK HERE
Waterbom Bali Tickets at the gate
It can be easy to buy tickets at the gate when you arrive but sometimes there can be a line up especially in peak times. Be mindful that in peak times they can close the gates if the park is at capacity, it’s always best to arrive early. Kids aged under 2 are free into the park and 2-11 years are classed as children when buying tickets. For families traveling with grandparents to Waterbom they offer 50% off entry for Seniors aged 66 and over. Tickets must be purchased at the Waterbom entry counter so that age can be proven. Also if you take your Balinese nanny with you make sure you pay the local price for them too.

Funtastic Kidzone at Waterbom
The kids area is fantastic at Waterbom! Lot’s of fun things for the younger kids to explore and have a fun day out. The slides are perfect for once the kids are walking and be sure to take a nanny to run around after the kids!





Hire a Gazebo Waterbom, Bali
A visit to Waterbom water park with the kids can be made even better when you hire a gazebo. This is a great way to settle in for the day and have all your stuff in the one spot. Each gazebo comes with a safe so you may not need to hire one of the Waterbom lockers. We have used a few different sized gazebos over our last few visits and in different spots. Our biggest tip is to pre-purchase the gazebos but if you don’t, get there just before 9am if you want to guarantee one of the gazebos in the kids zone. These do go quickly!
To book these gazebos you can pre-purchase them online through the Waterbom website or on the day you can pay at the entrance and then head straight to the counter either in the kid zone to be allocated a family zone gazebo or the locker area under the entrance for all other gazebos. You can now choose which area you would like to be located in when you pre-purchase them through the website. Please note that the rates listed below were current in September 2017 and have increased. Check out the Waterbom Website for details on current prices.
Please note the fine print with the Gazebo rental. You must allocate a day for the Gazebo to be rented so if your plans change while in Bali the cost is non-refundable. Also gazebo hire must be redeemed by 1pm or the gazebo can be released.

Private Family Gazebo
On our 2015 extended family holiday we hired this huge gazebo as there was 13 of us. We had number 18 which is the one located near the kids zone and the price included a drink (soft drink or water) for 6 people and 6 towels. It was really private and had plenty of space for all of us including a safe and lounge chairs to lay on. The younger kids could easily have a sleep in their [easyazon_link identifier=”B019DRIT4Y” locale=”US” tag=”rollingalong-20″]Mountain Buggy Nano Stroller[/easyazon_link].
Price: IDR 1,2500,00 with a IDR 75,000 deposit and recommended capacity 12 people.




Family Gazebo
In 2013 we were lucky enough to get number 22 gazebo, the family gazebo near the kids zone. These go very quickly and was perfect for 2 families.
Price: Kids area: IDR 350,000 with a IDR 75,000 deposit and recommended capacity 8 people. Slide area central is IDR 400,000

Regular and Premium Gazebo
Our last trip in 2016 we hired number 16 gazebo as all the gazebos near the kids zone were gone when we arrived at 9:20am. I actually really liked this spot as it was quiet but close to the kids zone but without the screaming kids! I also managed to pick up the WIFI from the cafe nearby and the size was perfect for our family of 4 with out nanny Kadek.
Price: Starts from IDR 250,000 with a IDR 75,000 deposit and recommended capacity 6 people.




Waterbom Bali Lockers
The lockers are a great way to keep all your gear together securely and are located in different areas around the park. The cashless wristband that you purchase at the entrance allows you easy access to the lockers.
Regular Locker: IDR 35,000 with a IDR 30,000 deposit
Family Locker: IDR 45,000 with a IDR 30,000 deposit
Waterbom Bali Towels
Towels can be hired which is perfect if you don’t want to lug a whole lot of wet towels home.
IDR 20,000 with a IDR 62,000 deposit
Waterbom Bali Rides
Waterbom park tickets allow you to ride as many water slides as you can! If you are like me and aren’t a huge daredevil but enjoy a swim, then the main pool is a great spot. We tend to go for a swim earlier in the day as the pool bar can get a bit rowdy after lunch!

Waterbom Bali Lazy River
Perfect with the kids, the lazy river is my go to ‘ride’ now that I can’t do the bigger slides! Easy and relaxing, the whole family can enjoy it.



Kiddy Slides
The slides located near the Funtastic kids area are perfect for the younger kids and Mum’s and Dad’s can go down with the younger ones too. Our kids loved this area and is a great spot for the under 4 yrs age.


Twin Racer
Using a mat you head down racing head first! Charlotte loved this with Jed last trip as she was above 110cms tall.
Smashdown Waterbom Bali
The Waterbom Bali Smashdown 2.0 is an extreme ride and not for the faint hearted!! You need to be 122cms to attempt this one.
Fast N Fierce
This one is all about speed and beating your friend down to the bottom. 120cm tall is the go on this one.

Constrictor
Lots of fun on a tube and best when you go with a friend, you will need to be 120cm to give this one a go.
Waterbom Bali Python
The Python Waterbom Bali is a fun ride that can take up to 4 people in a raft. Charlotte, Jed and I had a go of this in 2015 and I got told off from Charlotte, at age 4 yrs, that I was screaming too much!! The kids need to be 100cm to give this one a go with Mum and Dad.
Super Bowl
Fun with a friend, this tube ride is great for all ages but you do need to be 122cms tall to give it a go.

Boomerang Waterbom Bali
Ok so I was brave enough to try this last trip, my face says it all! Need to be 122cms tall to try this extreme one out.

Double Twist
The start of this one is why I probably haven’t tried it yet! Extreme and you need to be 122cms to have a try.
Green Vipers
I still remember Charlotte coming back to our gazebo when she was 4 yrs saying ‘Berta and I just went down the big green one!’ It goes quick but kids above 100cms can give the open green viper a go.
Climax Waterbom Bali
The Waterbom Climax is one of the scariest rides and no I haven’t tried it! Hubby did on a trip in 2013 and said it was fun. You need to be 120cms for this one.

Pipeline
Located next to the Climax is one for the smaller daredevils as you can ride this one at 100cms tall. Again is extreme!!
Flowrider Waterbom Bali
The Waterbom Flowrider looked like a lot of fun but I enjoyed a Bintang instead while watching everyone have a go! You need to be 130cms to give this a go and will cost extra as not included in the Waterbom park prices. You can buy either 1/2 hr or 1 hr long sessions and opens from 10am-5pm.

Water Blaster
Launching water balloons is a lot of fun and you can pay to do just that! Kids under 6 need an adult to supervise them and you need to purchase the water balloons.
Eurobungy Waterbom Bali
Kids were having a lot of fun on the Euro Bungy but the cost is not included in the Waterbom Bali ticket price. Charlotte wasn’t keen last trip when she was 5 years but Mason would have loved it but we didn’t know if we would get him off! Max weight is 80kgs to have a go.

Waterbom Bali Food Options
The food options are great at Waterbom! We usually just take in a few snacks for the kids and water bottles. We find the food to be reasonably priced and something for everyone available. There is gluten free options available too with the pizza bases gluten free for an extra cost.
Food Court Wantilan
The food court has a huge range of different food and where we ordered lunch from last time. Was yummy and they delivered it to our gazebo.

Cafe Bali Banana
Located near the kids zone is a great cafe with sandwiches, drinks and cakes. They also have free WIFI at this cafe.


Resto The Shack

Bar The Pool Bar
The main pool is where the teenagers and drinkers hang out so after lunch can get a bit more rowdy.

Resto Thaitalian
I had a bintang and snack while I watched the Flow Rider and it was good Thai and Italian food.

Cafe Illy
I do love a good coffee and the latte I had from Cafe Illy was good. Nothing to rave about but still drinkable!

Food Vendors including churros, popcorn and icecream


Waterbom Bali WIFI
WIFI isn’t available throughout the whole Kuta water park but at 3 of the cafes. You just ask for the code and they will give it to you to use for free.

Shopping at Waterbom
At the entrance to the park is a shop with anything that you may have forgotten for your day out. I once forgot my bathers and had accidentally left them at our villa in Seminyak!! So silly of me but I manage to find a pair of Billabong bathers that I still wear today for a reasonable price. They weren’t really cheap but no more than what you would pay in Australia. They have a range of swim nappies and other swimming products also near the kidzone if you run out.




Passouts
These are easy to organise and they give you an armband so you can come and go as you please. This can be especially useful if you have young kids and are staying close by, you could have an early play head back to the hotel room for a sleep then back for some more fun in the afternoon. The Discovery Mall across the road has lots of shops including Sephora, I may have popped out for a shop last trip 😉


Waterbom Security and Safety
Each vehicle that attempts to come to the entrance of the park is checked out and bags are checked after tickets are purchased. The park is extremely clean, each bathroom area has it’s own attendant! Australian waterparks take note!! We have always felt very safe at the park and the quality control is high.

Waterbom Kuta Facilities
Cashless payment
The splash bands are great as there is no need to worry about money during the day. You simply load up any amount of money at the entrance and other points around the park to use at all outlets throughout the day. We usually load up $100 AUD for the day and if we need more cash it’s easy to load and if we don’t use it all you can easily get the money refunded when you hand in the band.
Professional Photographers
First Aid
Massage/Reflexology

Hair Braiding/Nail Spa


Disabled and Pram Access
There are many ramps into and around the park and we always find it easy to push a pram around.

Sustainability at Waterbom
Waterbom was officially accredited with becoming carbon neutral in 2018. They work very hard at reducing their environmental footprint by introducing the following aspects to the waterpark:
- Water minimization initiatives across the park
- Park wide waste separation allows recycling and composting to reduce the level of waste ending up in landfill by 20%
You can find more on this page here about all of the fantastic work Waterbom are doing to help make their waterpark sustainable into the future.

Holiday Inn Baruna

We loved our stay at Holiday Inn Resort Baruna. I’m not usually a Kuta fan but really enjoyed the beautiful gardens and pool area. The rooms, although not ultra new, were comfortable and the kids especially loved the themed rooms of the kids suites. We couldn’t keep the kids away from the kids club and the Tea Tree Spa gave us one of the best massages of our trip. You can find our full review here.

Love this guide!!
Thanks Kate. Another great comprehensive post.
Out of curiosity, have you come across the Tamen Sagara Madu water park in Canggu? Nowhere near as big and comprehensive as Waterbom of Finns, but costs much less and big enough for big and small kids to while away a hot afternoon. Includes a full length pool too. (IDR40,000 for an adult, 30,000 for kids)
Hi Colin, we haven’t yet! But must put it on the list. I think our kids are addicted to Waterbom though so might be hard to get them out of wanting to go there!! Much easier on the pocket though. Thanks for the tip. Cheers, Kate
Thanks for all the great info Kate, will be so handy for our visit in June
No worries! I hope it helps and if you have anymore questions feel free to ask xx
Thanks for all he great info. I am taking my grandchildren later in the year. One of my grandchildren is coeliac and needs a gluten free diet. I notice the menus are burgers and pizzas. Any chance there are gluten free options?
Hi, I just had a look through my photos and yes they do have gluten free! It was an extra $2aud for a gluten free pizza base and gluten free bread was available for the sandwiches. Hope this helps 🙂
Thanks for such a thorough review!! Has helped with planning our upcoming July trip
Thanks so much for your kind words and enjoy your visit!!
Great post, thank you for sharing Kate. We weren’t going to go but after reading your post we’ll be heading there for sure. I didn’t realise it was so well serviced and suitable for little ones and pampering for Mum!
Thanks Fiona! Have a great time, it’s a lot of fun 🙂
Hi, would love an update after your August trip. We are going with our 6 children for Christmas 2018 (yes 6 kids) and although my husband and I have been to bali before it was more about food and massages than watermarks and zoos. Thanks!
Hi Belinda, yay that will be so exciting! It is on my very long list to do 🙂 Cheers, Kate
Thanks so much – this was exactly the info that I was looking for. Also on our way there in December and would love to hear about your latest experience – especially regarding the gazebo areas – which is best for “with” or “without” kids.
Hi and thanks so much for your kind words! We love the gazebos near the kids funtastic area with the kids and the ones near the lazy river are perfect without the kids for a quieter time x
Thank you so much. This is so helpful
Glad it could help 🙂
Thanks Kate, so informative! I have just discovered your site this week after starting to tentatively plan our 2020 Bali trip (first time with our daughter in tow) and it has been fantastic so far with all the recommendations and answers to all the questions I had floating in my head… THANK YOU!
So glad it could help! Loving planning trips x
