Lovely place for kids of all ages.Not crowded, reasonably priced. About R85 for 3 people to enter +one train ride eachLove the jumping castles and especially the kids zip line.Lots of greenery, reusing of natural tree offcuts to make play equipment.Mostly secure area for letting kids run around.Beautiful surroundings in Greenpoint to admire while kids are entertained.Allow birthday parties. There are about 5 wooden tables and benches all over the park.I do wish there was a smoking section for parents. We were out in open air and there were no no smoking signs but I was too concerned that someone elses child would get too close and this would upset the other parents.But for parents like me that had to spend 4 hours in this park without leaving, it would have been easier if I could have just stepped aside for a smoke without being judged, before continuing for a fun day.Overall, a lovely experience ♡

What a magical space for the kids. Super safe and lots of space to run around to burn off all that energy. Avas unicorn birthday was such a treat and they were super helpful with set up. Power is provided should you wish to set up a jumping castle. Chairs and a private space can be arranged for hosting special events. The view might I add is absolutely amazing of our beautiful ocean which adds to having an amazing back drop.

Cheap entry and fun for kids . The place provides peace of mind for parents because it is fenced right around. The train is a fun touch. Lots of things to do and plenty of shade for parents to relax while the kids go wild. Zip line, rock climbing, small astro turf among the usual (and some unusual) playground equipment. Definitely a nice place to spend a good couple hours to keep the little ones occupied. Also available for functions such as parties.

Needs major improvements and visible management. Its a free for all. Not very safe. You have to be a helicopter parent. The free public park next door is much safer and cleaner. Should charge more to improve and keep the riff raff out.

Fa
Review №71

The train itself is a little loud when youre sitting inside so if your kids dont like noisy things then maybe try the other play options. My son loves trucks and trains and this option was a lot safer than taking him on a real train. They also offer party options so the next time you dont want your house to look like a bomb after you host your kids party then have it here :)

There are various things to keep the kids busy which is great. A train ride is included in the entrance fee.The kids love the train ride and the fact that they can peddle a car as there is a track and some cars. I watched a little boy learn how to peddle and steer a car. It was good to see him smile all the time and ask questions and works out how to coordinate in a short time.All round great experience for adults and kids. There is a walkway alone the sea which leads to the nearby Lighthouse.A Putt Putt course is situated next to the parking area at Tree Anchor Bay.

Review №84

This is always a win win for kids and adults. The enclosed play area, is an absolute bonus especially when going with toddlers.The different entertainment obstacles, the mini track for kids, climbing wall and of course the train provides for hours of entertainment and fun. It gives kids the opportunity to burn all their energy and allows adults to sit and chat and have fun too.The train ride is fun on the first two occasions but after that I usually feel a headache coming. But the kids clearly dont feel the same because they usually want to go for 5 rides.

Hu
Review №85

As much as my kids enjoy this place, Im sorry but its not worth the entrance fee. Its ok for kids age 2-6 maybe.Why do adults have to pay for a rider ticket if you have no interest in taking the train ride? Plus, in summer its crazy hot. The shade is usually hogged by people having their kiddies parties there. We tried to find a bench , all were filthy, and getting one cleaned took about 20 minutes for someone to come out to assist . So all in all not for me, sorry guys, but I have to be honest.

Nice place to take kids. Unfortunately the train was running while we visited, but the setting of the park between the ocean and the city is nice.

Review №87

Having a party, or you just want the kids to have fun and enjoy themselves by rock climbing, zip lining, jump and bounce around on the jumping castles,etc. or just to take a train ride around the premises for sheer enjoyment, then head on to this venue. Best time to go is late Spring and Summer

Review №89

Okay for older kiddies 3+,no real entertainment for toddlers everything either to high or deep ie the water slide , besides a jumping castle and jungle gym/slide (different variations of)nothing to keep your toddler occupied for a few hours.We paid and 15-20minutes later had a crying toddler wanting to go on things that were not safe for his age(Seperated areas for toddlers and kids work best).Shaded areas taken by parties ,some equipment burning hot.

My son enjoyed himself we had a ride on the blue train lol best suits little people but as a adult i quite enjoyed my ride around the park which the train circled 3 times. The park had lots for the kids to do from a zip line to soccer field to ramp for scatters and bladers obstacle courses. And the list goes on. There is also a place to buy refreshments as well as the lady with the waffle stand yummy.Highly recommend to keep busy bodies busy😉
