Riviera Maya Water Park - Update

April 5, 2019

Conversations about a Lazy River and water complex at the Riviera Maya property date back to 2010 in this post to the forum and to March, 2011 when Wendy posted her question and comments on the forum. (Note: Tap the back arrow on your browser to return to this page if you tap either of the links above.) Since then, the Sales staff members have given many reasons why the Lazy River has not been developed any further. The most recent was the area was not safe because of the infusion of snakes in the area. Clearly, this was a story that may have been partly true because there likely are snakes in the area. But more than likely, the property had not been developed enough to warrant the expenditure for an expanded water park vision.

Well that was then, and this is now. The newer Luxxe Jungle Suite Towers are open, they have been well received and the guests staying there complain loudly about not having transportation to the beach, which is the center of activity for the property. However, the complaining has a chance to slow down because the new water park is just steps away from the Luxxe Jungle Suites.

Last week or so, we received a photo from Christine who has been there for the last couple of weeks. Then today we recieved more photos that provide a comprehensive view of what is to come. Take a look and let us know your comments by posting them below:

This photo was taken by Christine from outside the fence.  Little did she know that we would receive photos from inside the fence.  Terrific!  Thank you Christine.

A pretzel of sorts.  Riders will have fun, especially on the last drop.  What fun!

There are a lot of twists and turn in this park.  It should be a place where children could spend all their time.  What about you, Grandpa?

This looks like an amazing ride.  How about that down spout at the end.  It looks like a straight down shot.

Can you believe the drop from the top to the bottom of this ride?  No seat belts, so hold onto whatever!  Also, how about the tube to the right?  Next...(:eek:)!!!

This slide is a bit more gradual.  But wait until the end.

Now we come to a very confusing ride.  Not sure if you get in the bucket and it pours you out or if it is just for decorations.  Stay tuned....

Yes, there will be restaurants and other venues too.  So prepared to spend a day or so at the very interesting water park.

These photos provide a wonderful glimps of what is to come. Also, just think, we have yet to see the subject of the conversation at the top of this page - the Lazy River.
There is much more to come, for sure. So you know what I'm going to say....Stay tuned....!!
