I had an amazing experience at Waterworld! The place has a great atmosphere, but what really made my visit special was the outstanding service from my waitress, Loveness & Sarah at Chubbies . They were friendly, attentive, and made sure everything was perfect throughout my time there. It’s rare to meet people who serve with such genuine care and positivity. Thank you, Loveness and Sarah, for making my visit memorable. I’ll definitely be coming back! Highly recommended. 🙌✨

We visited Yas Waterworld today, and the team surprised my daughter Mariam with a wonderful birthday gesture — they brought her a cake with her name on it and sang for her. It was such a sweet moment, and it honestly made her day. We really appreciated their kindness. 🎂😍 The staff were super friendly and warm, and they added a lovely touch to our visit. Thank you for making our day even better. ✨ Small gestures like this mean so much to kids, and it made her day unforgettable♥️ Totally recommend visiting Yas Waterworld — and we’ll definitely be coming back on our next special occasion. ♥️🎉
