Fire alarm went off repeatedly at night and again early in the morning and caused a lot of anxiety especially for my 18 month old who was woken up abruptly and was very scared. Food absolutely sucks, rooms are super dirty and on top of that we came home with bedbugs. Horrible experience!

Not worth it

The cops were there for some reason, parents weren’t watching their kids. For the price of the room it definitely isn’t worth it.

We had a great stay for what we could. Our kid got sick the night before our stay and we called Expedia multiple times to reschedule it. We said we'd pay the difference. One agent said he talked to castaway bay and we could swap but he needed my card number but we had a bad phone connection. He gave me a number which I called and another agent screwed us saying he never called castaway but she would and would call me back. She never called back and we had to just make the most out of our sick stay. Hopefully no others got sick but I wasn't wasting 200 dollars for nothing. Won't use Expedia again.

Cheer Competition weekend

Castaway Bay is so fun! It’s affordable. My Grandkids love it. The waterpark is young kids friendly and the arcade has lots of games that I enjoy playing too. The only thing I can say that needs work are the mattresses.. They have definitely been used and are not comfortable. We will be back!
