Waterpark questions...

[twinnersmama]

What do you do with your stuff? I'm mostly worried about my room key (attached to my credit card) and my kids' glasses.

What about towels? Do they supply them or do we need to bring towels?

We are going Nov 29-Dec 7 and hoping one day will be warm enough for the water park, so I don't think it will be too busy.

Hi you can rent a locker there or buy one of those waterproof cases to wear around your neck with your room key, cash, cc, etc My cellphone even fits in a waterproof case so its with me have been going to BB since it opened and never had a thing stolen usually put sunglasses in a case in my shoe & all good.
Books, magazines, cover up, sunscreen no one ever touched it

No need to bring towels they are provided just put your towels on your chairs, stake your claim (never had anyone take my chair either) and enjoy the day

We always bring our own beach towels with us...it's like a way to spot our chairs in the sea of chairs.

We have never rented a locker and (knock on wood)never had anything stolen while there.

For me it's not an option,I have to rent a locker.I don't just sit in a chair when I go to the waterparks.I get there put my stuff in the locker,go hit the slides and attractions,come back to the locker to get money for lunch,maybe reapply some sunscreen and then go back to the slides until I leave around 6-7pm.

Towels are not provided for free. It is a $2 per towel fee. We bring our own large beach towels. I saw a lot of people bringing towels from their hotel though.

We have not had anything stolen from our bag or chair. However, my husband's credit card fell out of his pocket on a water slide. We discovered it a couple of hours later. Someone had already tried to charge something on the card online by the time we called to put a freeze on it.

The water is heated, so you should definitely have a day warm enough to enjoy the water park. We enjoyed the abnormally cool month of March this year.

I got a vacation vault, if you do a search it will pop up. Basically it is a plastic box with a locking strap. It's hard to explain, if you go to their website you'll see. It is relatively small, unfortunately it will not hold my 10 inch tablet It will hold a couple of cell phones, camera, glasses, wallet etc. You put them in the vault, then you wrap the strap around something before you lock it. I usually leave mine in my bag, with the strap coming out of the top of the bag, then wind the strap through the openings in my chair. Then you lock it, it is now locked and fastened to your chair. Then I throw my towel over that. This way nobody even knows it's there. It makes it so that nobody can just slip their hand in your bag and take your phone, camera, or whatever. It is plastic, so if somebody wanted to break it, they could, but I really don't think thieves would want to draw that much attention to themselves. Somebody would notice someone trying to bus into your plastic case with a rock. They can't easily cut the strap because it is cable on the inside. We have annual passes to our local waterpark, so we use it there all summer too. I find it really convenient, and I never have to get a locker. You even get to set your own 3 number combo.

I also bought one of the small plastic cases you wear around your neck. I got mine at Typhoon Lagoon. There is a small one that is maybe half an inch deep, and a larger on that is like an inch or so. If you have a small phone it might fit in the larger one. I have the smaller one and just keep my credit card, room key/charge, and a little cash. That way if we decide we're hungry or thirsty we don't have to go find our chairs, which would certainly be on the other side of the park, to get to our money. We bring our own colored beach towels, makes it so much easier to find your chairs.

Have fun!!!!!

Like the others said, you'll have to get a locker at the front of the park.

We've been going multiple times per year since the early 90s and I just leave my stuff at my chair all day. I've never had anything taken or tampered with. We take a beach bag (towels, cover-ups, goggles, etc) and while we are off riding slides and swimming, our camera, iphones, wallets, keys are in that bag, sitting, unobserved at our chair. Yes, it's taking a chance, but I don't carry a lot of cash and all the other stuff is useless to others within minutes of me figuring out it's gone. I think there are easier (cheaper) ways in the Orlando Metro area to steal things of value. So far, so good.

I leave my cell phone at the safe in the hotel. Don't need it if I'm at a water park and don't want it to get stolen or get wet. We don't bring a tablet or anything like that.

I put my room key in my bathing suit. It's plastic, so it can get wet.

Cheap watch, etc., stays with the shoes.

We only bring a couple bucks cash (into the shoes). We pay for lunch and drink with room card.

If I have sunglasses or glasses, I either wear them or they stay with the shoes.
