Just got back from an overnight trip to Castaway Bay. Overall, we had a pretty good time. There were 2 families in our party, 7 total, with small children. We stayed in a parrot suite, which had 1 queen, and 2 double beds. The rooms was adequately sized for us. We were able to check into our room early, and... More

The lobby was very nice, but the rooms are small, non themed, and maintained minimally at best. We had trouble with our tv, we didnt have enough towels, and had to ask for our roll-away bed, Our room overlooked the dumpsters, and the front desk staff was very stiff, and the gift stores were EXTREMELY over priced. The positves were... More

I can truly say that Castaway Bay is my favorite resort. The rooms are nice, the beds are nice and soft, the service is great, and the water park is tons of fun! More

My trip to Cast-a-way Bay was GREAT! I enjoyed a lot of things, and had no problems with anything. Everyone in my family had a BLAST. I've been to many waterparks and hotels, but I have to say, this is the BEST. Not only is the Waterpark awesome, the hotel was VERY nice. The things I lovedmost about the waterpark... More

We truly enjoyed our vacation here. We've stayed at Great Wolf and Kalahari before and wanted to give this resort a shot. We took our 2 year old son with us. The staff was very friendly and helpful. The rooms are a little bit outdated but you really are not in them very often. They were clean which is a... More

We really enjoyed our stay at Castaway Bay. I'd love to give it five stars because we had such a nice time, but there were a number of things that we found to be just slightly "off" -- enough that 4 or 5 stars just wouldn't quite cut it. But it is important to note that even though we're only... More

I really enjoyed our time here. We went for 2 nights and it really wasn't enough time. I definitely would stay for 3 next time. The waterpark is just enough without being too overwhelming. I have 3 kids, ages 6,3, and 1 and it was perfect for them. There were plenty of life guards on duty and they were very... More

Rooms were nice and clean. However watermark was not enjoyable. The pool water was too cold and the air temperature was too cold too. Our room wasn't ready at the stated check in time. Food in the watermark area was over priced and cold! More

I was impressed with the resort. Room was great. Clean, great space having two bunk bed sets in the semi private area for the kids. Tarpon room. Clean and comfortable. Watermark is impressive. With lots of people, still plenty of towels and lines were manageable. We have visited another resort in the area-too big, not clean and poor customer service.... More

I've been to many indoor waterparks and I've made my notes on this one. To start we did not get a great deal as we could not come on the days they made the deals avaliable. We had a room with 2 sets of bunk beds and a king size bed. The only con I had with this type of... More
