I was there a few months ago, great place. Been 3 times now my self.

If it's a hotel over road from Wet n Wild then probably is the Holiday Inn, that’s where we stayed and was over the road from both places.

Personally I wouldn't stay there again, the middle of the hotel is hollow and we had lots of people in there who were shouting across from one side of the hotel to the other at early hours of the morning to their friends etc making loads of noise.

Other things like trying to change traveller’s chq's were also a problem sometimes as they never had money (only trying to change $100).

Oh and what ever you do DO NOT use the telephone in your room, we made 2x 20min phone calls back home to the UK and cost $90 (about £65) other people were complaining too because they had been trying to call home and were charged $40 just to dial out 4 times and they didn't even get connected!!! Hotel says it's down to the phone company!!!! Thing that pi$$ed us of was we made same phone call from New York few days before for same time and to same number for only $30!

Things like park tickets etc your better off getting from the park on the day (about $50 per person per park), don't get caught out by these places you see selling tickets for about $20 as it's all to do with buying time share places.

Have fun, wish I was going back!

Oh and don't forget you will be going during one of the busiest times of year so be prepared for the price to go up and long waiting times getting into parks/rides etc.

Si,

Take some ear plugs mate.

You'll need them after hearing "Have a nice day" for the 134th time in 10 minutes
