After 1.5 hours the kids and I still hadn't got wet. Main pools all closed for hygiene alert as we arrived. We then walked around and waited an hour to get onto Black Hole. The line didn't look that long...but no indication "30 mins wait from this point" etc. like a lot of parks. No information.

Turns out the ride was only operating one chute not two. No reasons given. All questions met with shrugs by staff. Interminable waits watched over by listless staff...seeming no communication between them...no sense of hussle and energy to get maximum no. of people through the rides and increase the fun.

We spent most of the day there....we got to ride 5 rides...let's say they last 30 seconds each....2.5 mins of "action"...

I though the guests were well behaved and tolerant considering the attitude of the management. This brand must suffer.

You're better off in the surf...

• Pros: Water on a sunny day
• Cons: Endless waiting
