In-Depth Review of Vana Nava Waterpark Hua Hin

While in Hua Hin, here are other experiences we've covered
Setting and Location
Vana Nava Waterpark is situated in Hua Hin, a popular beach resort town in Thailand. The park’s distinctive jungle-themed design makes it stand out, with lush landscaping and a vibrant atmosphere that transports visitors into a lively “water jungle.” Being close to public transportation makes it fairly easy to reach, whether you’re staying locally or just passing through.
Booking and Entry
One of the biggest advantages is the ability to prebook your tickets online, which means avoiding the hassle of last-minute queues or potential sold-out days. The ticket price of $36.21 covers the admission, towel, and locker — a good value considering the convenience and inclusions. Just be sure to give the correct height for your tickets, as the park staff will check on arrival, and incorrect info might lead to extra charges.
What’s Included and What’s Not
Your ticket grants entry to the waterpark, with access to over 19 rides in the Water Jungle & Adventure Zone, plus locker use and a towel. It’s worth noting that food, beverages, and alcohol are not included**, but there are plenty of options inside, from snack carts to buffet restaurants. Most visitors find the food offerings decent though not gourmet, and paying on-site for the buffet is considered more economical.
The Rides and Attractions
The highlight for thrill-seekers are Thailand’s longest and largest water slides, including the Abyss and Boomerango. These rides promise a good dose of adrenaline, with steep drops and twisting funnels, ideal for older kids and adults alike. For younger children or those seeking gentler fun, the park offers a variety of smaller slides and water play areas — plenty to keep the little ones happy.
Reviewers generally agree that the rides are well-maintained and exciting, with many noting that the park is clean and organized. One visitor, Eva, mentioned that the park is “very nice for children from 8 years,” and appreciated the sun beds at Coconut Beach for relaxing after the excitement.
Facilities and Comfort
The locker and towel service—included in your ticket—makes it easier to enjoy the water without worrying about your belongings. The sun beds, as mentioned by Eva, are comfortable, and the overall atmosphere is laid-back. Several reviews mention how quickly they got into the park, with staff efficiently scanning tickets and handing out bracelets and towels.
Food and Refreshments
While food isn’t bundled into the ticket price, the park offers a variety of food options. Some reviews suggest that paying for the buffet upon arrival is more budget-friendly than purchasing individual snacks throughout the day. Food quality varies, but soft drinks and snacks are readily available. Remember, outside food and beverages are not permitted inside, so plan accordingly.
Overall Experience
Visitors describe their day as “great fun” and “a nice time for kids and adults.” Sach, one reviewer, appreciated the laid-back atmosphere and said, “looking forward to Vana Nava expanding and becoming bigger.” Sui noted that the rides were “really exciting for adults and big kids,” and that there are plenty of slides and water play areas for smaller children.
Suitability and Recommendations
This waterpark is best suited for families with children—especially those with kids aged 8 and up—thanks to the variety of rides and the jungle ambiance. It’s also excellent for adventure lovers seeking a day of adrenaline or relaxation at the same time. If you’re looking for a quiet, low-key experience, this may not be the best fit, as the park tends to be lively and bustling during peak hours.
Final Thoughts

Vana Nava Waterpark in Hua Hin offers a fun-filled day just a short trip from the beach. It combines thrilling rides with a beautiful jungle setting, making it more than just a typical water park. The pre-booking option, along with locker and towel inclusions, makes it highly convenient, especially on busy days.
