When we holiday in Bali, Waterbom Bali is always at the top of our list of things to do in Bali with kids. This award-winning Bali waterpark is one of the island’s best family attractions, offering fun for all ages, from toddlers splashing in the kids’ area to thrill-seeking teens and parents too!

Over the years, our family has visited Waterbom around ten times, and it never disappoints. During our most recent visit in July 2025, we enjoyed exploring the newly unveiled kids zone, Zuluu Hill, alongside the expanded Garden Oasis area.

Keep reading for everything you need to know about visiting Waterbom Bali with kids, including gazebo hire options, the newest slides and kids-zone features and insider tips to help you plan the perfect family day out at Waterbom Bali.

Waterbom Park Bali Location

Waterbom Bali is located in the heart of Kuta, making it one of the most convenient family attractions on the island. The waterpark sits on Jalan Kartika Plaza, right across the road from Discovery Mall, and is surrounded by plenty of shops, restaurants, and hotels in both Kuta and Tuban.

Getting to Waterbom Park is easy. Organise a private driver, Grab Car or Bluebird Taxi, and you can be dropped off at the front door.

Whether you’re staying nearby or visiting for the day, the central location makes Waterbom Bali the perfect base for a fun family outing followed by shopping or a beachfront dinner in Kuta.

Waterbom Bali Map

Planning your day is even easier with the updated Waterbom Bali map! The latest version includes the beautiful Garden Oasis area and Aqua Play kids zone, featuring water cannons, splash buckets, and mini slides for younger children. You’ll also find the exciting new Zuluu Hill section, making it simple to navigate between the kids’ play zones, dining spots, and the park’s biggest thrill slides.

Check out the newest Waterbom Park map below, and keep an eye out for future updates as more areas continue to be refreshed and expanded in 2025.

Waterbom Bali Opening Hours

Waterbom Kuta is open daily from 9 am to 6 pm, making it easy to plan a full day of family fun. This includes public holidays like Christmas Day, so that you can enjoy the park even during peak festive periods.

The only exception is Nyepi Day (the Balinese Day of Silence) when the park, shops, restaurants, and even the airport close for the day. Nyepi usually falls in March, but the exact date changes each year, so it’s worth checking ahead if you’re visiting during this period.

Visiting early in the day is recommended to make the most of the rides before crowds build, especially during school holidays and long weekends. We recommend arriving at the park at 8:45am, 15 minutes before park opening.

Waterbom Bali Tickets

If you love saving money, one of the best places to find cheaper Waterbom Bali tickets online is through Klook. Pre-booking your tickets online is highly recommended as it not only saves you money but also helps you skip the longer ticket queues at the entrance. Waterbom occasionally caps daily visitor numbers during peak times, so booking ahead guarantees your entry.

Tip: Use the pre-purchase counter when you arrive; it can be shorter than the walk-up ticket line.

If you’d like a shady base for your family, consider booking a gazebo. You’ll need to book directly on the official Waterbom website, as gazebos can’t be reserved through third-party sites.

When booking a gazebo, you must also purchase your entry tickets at the same time. Most gazebos are allocated online, but a few are released for sale at the gate each morning. If you’re visiting in high season, it’s best to book as early as possible.

Another option is to buy discounted entry tickets online with Klook and then book a gazebo upon arrival at the park. This works well if you arrive early in the day and you don’t want to be locked in to visiting a specific day. You will have less gazebos to choose from but provides flexibility with the day you visit Waterbom Bali waterpark.

Waterbom Bali Ticket Categories

Kids under 2 years old Free entry

Children aged 2–11 years Child ticket rate applies

Adults 12 years and above

Balinese nannies or helpers If your nanny has an Indonesian KTP, KITAS, or KITAP make sure to select the local price when booking directly on the official website

Hire a Gazebo at Waterbom

Visiting Waterbom Water Park with the kids can be even better when you hire a gazebo. Each gazebo has a safe, so you may not need to hire a Waterbom locker. Each area of the gazebos is suited to different ages and preferences. But to be honest, any gazebo within the park is worthwhile booking. It is super easy to navigate, and the gazebo is a great central place to regroup and enjoy lunch together.

VIP Oasis Gazebo Pool Edge

The beautiful new Oasis Gardens area officially opened in August 2023, and we were lucky enough to visit soon after. We booked the VIP pool-edge gazebo, and it was absolutely amazing. This new zone features a huge pool with a swim-up bar and three fun slides nearby, making it perfect for families who want to relax while still being close to the action. The setup felt modern, spacious and ideal for a full day of fun in the sun.

For Oasis Garden gazebos, check in with the guest relations desk when you arrive at Waterbom Bali. This area includes its own concierge service, making your day even easier and more relaxed. We had plenty of room for our group of 16 people, and it was such a fun experience!

If you’re visiting with toddlers or crawling babies, I highly recommend booking the VIP Oasis Pool View gazebo, it’s close to the pool but with enough space and shade for little ones to safely play and rest.

The VIP Oasis Gazebo Pool Edge comfortably fits up to 16 people, making it perfect for families or groups visiting together. The package includes a cold refreshment towel on arrival, 16 pool towels and mineral water stocked in a mini fridge. You’ll also have concierge service, a power outlet for charging devices, and access to a private shower area. Best of all, there’s plenty of space to spread out, relax, and enjoy your day in total comfort.

Premium Oasis Gazebo

Located in the Oasis Slide View Gazebo zone of the Oasis Garden. Capacity of 8 people and includes eight towels and two large bottles of water. Features a sitting area with bench/stools, safety box, power point, food/drink delivery and concierge service.

Gazebos around Waterbom Park

Waterbom Bali has 63 different gazebos to choose from, so you can find the perfect spot to suit your family. Whether you want a quiet, private space to relax or prefer to be right near the action, there’s a gazebo to match every style. Each one comes with its own amenities and inclusions, so it’s worth checking the details before you book. I’ve included photos below of different gazebos around the park to help you decide which one might be best for your visit.

Waterbom Bali Rides and Pools

Your Waterbom Bali tickets give you unlimited access to all the water slides, so you can ride as many as you like throughout the day! From high-speed thrill rides to family-friendly slides, there’s something for every comfort level.

Whether you’re chasing adrenaline or want a lazy day in the water, Waterbom Bali has the perfect mix of action and relaxation for every family member. Life jackets are available around the park making it super fun and safe for every swimming ability.

New Kids Zones at Waterbom Bali (2025 Update)

Waterbom Bali keeps getting better for families! The park has added some incredible new zones just for kids, making it one of the best things to do in Bali with kids of all ages.

Zuluu Hill

Get ready for adventure at Zuluu Hill, Waterbom Bali’s vibrant new play zone designed just for kids! This mini mountain features six slides spread over two levels, giving little explorers plenty of ways to twist, race, and splash their way to the bottom. From the shallow wading pool, kids can zoom down The Ramp for a quick splash or cruise along the Jungle Ride slides through lush tropical greenery. Grown-ups can join the fun, cheer from nearby, or kick back in the shade of the big tree while the kids play.

Height limit: Riders must be 150 cm or under

Mini Boomerang

Big thrills come in a kid-sized package with Waterbom Bali’s brand-new Mini Boomerang slide! Inspired by the park’s famous Boomerang, this mini version is perfect for younger riders who want a fun, safe taste of adventure. Located next to the new Zuluu Hill, the Mini Boomerang is a lot of fun! Parents can ride alongside their kids (max combined weight 136 kg). It’s the ideal warm-up slide for little thrill-seekers before taking on the bigger rides later in the day.

Height limit: Children must be at least 91cm tall, adult supervision required for under 107cm

AquaPlay

Standing 15 metres tall, the new AquaPlay at Waterbom Bali is a splash-filled paradise for kids of all ages up to 16 years old. This vibrant kids’ water playground features six winding slides, tipping bowls, interactive sprays, and a giant dump bucket that soaks everyone below! Children can explore multiple platforms with climbing decks, water jets and blasters while the littlest ones enjoy the soft-floored splash zones safely. Kids under six must be accompanied by an adult, making it a fun and secure experience for the whole family.

Height limit: Toddler slides max. height 130cm. Teen slides min. height 80cm

These new additions make Waterbom even more fun for families, with plenty of ways for everyone to cool off, laugh and make memories together.

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.

Important to note when riding that swimwear must be free of zippers, rivets or any materials that could damage the slide.

Flowrider Waterbom Bali

Whether you’re trying surfing for the first time or want to sit back with a cocktail and enjoy the show, FlowRider delivers nonstop fun, blending the thrill of surfing, skateboarding, and snowboarding into one epic ride.

Sessions run daily from 10 am to 5 pm, with options for a 30-minute session (Rp150,000) or a 1-hour session (Rp250,000). Riders must be at least 130 cm tall to bodyboard and 140 cm to stand-up ride, making it a great challenge for older kids, teens, and adventurous adults to test their balance on the endless wave.

Waterbom Bali Food

The food options at Waterbom Bali are fantastic! While you can only bring one water bottle per person, outside food and drinks aren’t allowed inside the park. Bags are checked at security, but if you’ve bought snacks or drinks by accident, you can easily leave them at the Guest Relations counter.

We’ve always found the food to be reasonably priced with plenty of variety for all tastes, from local favourites to family-friendly Western meals. There are even gluten-free options, including pizza bases, available for a small extra cost.

Savannah Cafe – Best Family Dining at Waterbom Bali

Savannah Cafe is the newest spot to grab a bite at Waterbom Bali, and it’s perfect for families! You’ll find it right next to the AquaPlay kids area, so it’s super handy when the kids need a quick refuel between slides. The open-air cafe has plenty of seating and serves up all the favourites. Pizza, burgers, noodles, sandwiches and even meat pies! We really liked the relaxed vibe here, and it’s a great option when you want to sit down together without leaving the fun.

Oasis Cafe

This cafe is located in the Oasis Garden area of Waterbom and serves delicious food and drinks. It offers a great selection of different cuisines and can deliver food directly to your gazebo.

Wantilan Food Court

Wantilan Food Court is our go-to when everyone wants something different! It’s a mix of flavours from all over the world, so there’s always something to make the whole family happy. You can try local Indonesian dishes, Thai favourites or go for classic comfort food like pasta or pizza. There’s plenty of seating, and it’s a great spot to take a break from the slides and enjoy a relaxed meal together.

Sliders Bar & Grill

Sliders Bar & Grill is the perfect spot to take a break and soak up the action at Waterbom Bali. This open-air bar and grill has front-row views of the FlowRider and the Smashdown slide finish line, so there’s always something to watch while you eat. The menu features all the crowd favourites like burgers, tacos, and easy bites to refuel between slides. Parents can also relax with a cold beer or tropical cocktail while the kids cool off nearby.

Pleasure Pool Bar

The original Waterbom Waterpark bar located in the middle of the park. A great range of cocktails and drinks, and a great spot for parents to hang out while the teens ride the slides.

Snack kiosks around the park

If you’ve got a sweet tooth, Waterbom Bali has you covered! You’ll find plenty of snack stops dotted around the park, perfect for a quick treat between slides. Grab a bag of popcorn, cookies or donuts (they are seriously the best!).

Our kids loved the Rebelle counter near the Kids Area, where they could choose from mini pancakes, ice cream, frozen yoghurt and more. If you’re after something refreshing, there are smoothies, juices, tea, and coffee too. The perfect excuse for a quick break (and maybe a sneaky snack for mum and dad).

Waterbom Kuta Facilities

Cashless payment

Waterbom Bali uses wristbands for payments throughout the water park called ‘Splash Bands’. You load up money at the kiosks located at the entry and in the park. We load up $100 AUD at the start of the day, and it is easy to load more if needed. They have top-up counters and balance check machines for the splash bands around the park. If we don’t use all the money, you can easily get the money refunded when you exit Waterbom.

Waterbom Bali Lockers

The lockers are a great way to keep all your gear together securely and are located throughout the park. The cashless wristband you purchase at the entrance allows easy access to the lockers.

Regular Locker IDR 55,000 with an IDR 20,000 deposit

Family Locker IDR 75,000 with an IDR 20,000 deposit

Waterbom Bali Towels

Towels can be hired, which is perfect if you don’t want to lug a lot of wet towels back to your accommodation and if you don’t hire a gazebo that includes towels.

IDR 30,000 with an IDR 50,000 deposit

Spa at Waterbom

The spa services at Waterbom are well-priced and perfect for relaxing. There are two spa areas: a new location in the Oasis Garden area and one next to the Lazy River. You can enjoy a massage, nail treatments, hair braiding, and more.

Waterbom Bali Wi-Fi

Wi-Fi isn’t available throughout the whole park, but you can connect at four of the cafes. Wantilan, Sliders, Oasis Cafe and Savannah Cafe all have free Wi-Fi.

Shopping at Waterbom

Right at the entrance, there’s a handy little shop stocked with all the essentials you might have forgotten. I’ve even had to duck in myself, once I left my swimmers back at our villa in Seminyak (major mum-brain moment!), but luckily they had a great pair of Billabong swimmers at a reasonable price. It’s reassuring knowing you don’t have to leave the park if something gets missed or misplaced!

Passouts

Re-entry to Waterbom Bali is super easy to organise. Just ask for a re-entry armband at the exit gate if you plan to come back later in the day. This is especially handy for families with young kids staying nearby. You can enjoy an early morning play, head back to your hotel for lunch or a nap, then return in the afternoon for more water fun!

Waterbom Security and Safety

Each vehicle that attempts to enter the park is checked, and bags are inspected after tickets are purchased at the entry gate. The park is spotless, and each bathroom area has an attendant! Australian waterparks, take note!! We have always felt very safe at the park, and the quality control is high.

Disabled and Pram Access

Waterbom Bali is pram and wheelchair-friendly, with ramps throughout the park making it easy to navigate. If you have a child or adult with additional needs, head to the guest relations desk on arrival and request a wristband. This lets the slide attendants know they may need extra time or assistance. The team is invaluable and can provide support to make your day as smooth and enjoyable as possible.
