Island H2O Live!

Has Hot Boy Summer ended yet…? Because if not, you can catch me at one of the newest and hottest waterparks in the Big O. Island H2O Live!, located in Kissimmee, Florida, has officially cut it’s inaugural ribbon and is open for all of its guests to enjoy.

The park sits adjacent to Margaritaville Resort Orlando and provides a full range of water attractions for a thrill-filled day. Though a stay at the Margaritaville Orlando Resort doesn’t guarantee access to the Island H2O Live waterpark, guests can purchase individual tickets at anytime online regardless of whether they’re staying at it’s neighboring resort or not. With a 1,300-foot lazy river and 9 thrilling rides, the adventures and possibilities are endless.

A very innovative and futuristic piece to the resort is their Smart Band and Island H2O live app. Embarking on this day-and-age’s newest technology, Island H2O utilizes a Smart Band and mobile-application technology to keep guests engaged throughout their entire stay at the waterpark. The band enables its user to access various spots within the waterpark to perform special functions such as taking photos in the photo pass booth, playing games, track locations and interact with other users.

If that isn’t enough, why don’t you try dipping into the massive Island H2O Live wave pool or one of their winding slides.

A general-admission ticket to Island H2O Live costs $49.99 ($42.99 for folks under 48 inches tall), and an annual pass is available for $89.99. So whip out those swimming trunks and bathing suits, because this high-tech waterpark is definitely one for the books. – David Plowden, David’s Manor.
