Thinking about spending a day at a water park that combines fun, convenience, and a splash of adventure? The Aquanick Aqua Ride in Riviera Maya might just be the experience you’re looking for. We haven’t personally been, but based on reviews and detailed info, it looks like a solid choice for travelers craving a lively and family-friendly water day with plenty of amenities.
What we really like about this experience is how it offers roundtrip transportation—no need to stress about logistics or parking—and the variety of attractions that cater to all ages. Plus, the inclusion of loungers and an open bar makes it a relaxing, all-in-one package. That said, a potential consideration is the cost—$206 per person is on the higher side, especially if you’re on a budget. But for a full day of water fun and convenience, it might be worth it.
This tour is ideal for families, groups of friends, or anyone looking to enjoy a carefree day in the water without worrying about transportation or food. If you’re okay with the price and want a day packed with slides, pools, and relaxation, this could be a great fit.

The Attractions: Water Slides, Pools, and Play Areas

One of the biggest draws is undoubtedly the variety of water attractions. There’s a lazy river for those who prefer a gentle float, alongside a more adventurous adventure river for those craving a bit more excitement. The activity pool and multiple swimming zones make it easy to find a comfortable spot for your group.
For the little ones, there’s a dedicated toddler area and a water walking system with floating cushions—perfect for kids to challenge themselves safely. The highlight for those wanting an adrenaline rush might be the climbing wall and the wave ball, which creates waves for an ocean-like experience at the park.
Travelers note that the park is super nice and clean, which makes a difference when you’re spending hours in the water. The water slides are a highlight, and you’ll find plenty of space to relax whether you’re sunbathing on the loungers or enjoying a snack from the various food stations.
The Food and Drink Scene

Food options are quite diverse, with Aqua Bite stations offering everything from hamburgers and hot dogs to poke bowls. While the costs aren’t included in the ticket price, having a variety of choices means everyone can find something they like, whether you’re craving a quick snack or a more substantial meal.
The open bar is a big bonus, especially on hot days, offering soft drinks, water, beer, and more. It’s a convenience that adds to the relaxed vibe—no need to carry money around or think about separate tabs. Plus, with towels and lounge chairs provided, you can spend your time relaxing instead of worrying about logistics.
Transportation and Overall Value

The roundtrip transportation is a standout feature—it makes the whole experience hassle-free. You just need to be ready at the pickup point, and the transport takes care of the rest. This is especially helpful if you want to avoid the hassle of finding parking or navigating local traffic.
At $206 per person, this experience is priced toward the higher end but includes almost everything you need for a full day of fun. When you factor in the convenience, the food, drinks, and access to a clean, well-maintained park, it can be viewed as good value—if you’re someone who prefers a ready-made, all-in-one experience.
