Vana Nava Water Jungle

Overview

The Vana Nava Water Jungle day pass is the easiest way to spend a full day at Hua Hin's largest water park. On the park's official booking site, the Adult Splash Day Pass currently costs THB 1,200 and bundles entry with a towel, a locker and unlimited rides on the VR Slide. A standard adult ticket bought on its own is THB 1,400, so the Splash Day Pass works out cheaper while adding the extras most visitors pay for anyway. Child and senior versions of the pass are also sold, along with a package that adds a lunch buffet.

Vana Nava describes itself as Asia's first water jungle. The park sits on about 20 rai (3.2 hectares) in Nong Kae, on the southern side of Hua Hin, and was planted with more than 200,000 plants and trees brought in from around Thailand. Inside are about 20 attractions, from gentle family pools to some of the most extreme slides in the country, all supplied by WhiteWater West of Canada. The park also says it follows international lifeguard and safety standards certified by Ellis and Associates of the United States.

Rides and Attractions

Vana Nava is known for a collection of rides that the park lists as firsts in Thailand. The Abyss, shaped like a giant megaphone, is described by the park as the world's largest waterslide and the only one in Thailand. Boomerango is billed as the country's longest slide, and the Aqualoop is described as Thailand's first anti-gravity tube slide. Families can float along the lazy river, try the inner tube and bowl slides, or play in the rain fortress, a multi-level splash structure with tipping buckets and smaller slides.

The Adventure Zone adds climbing and surfing. A climbing wall and rope course session costs THB 400 for two hours, and private surf zone sessions cost THB 400 for one hour, booked in fixed time slots. The VR Slide, which pairs a slide ride with a virtual reality headset, is included in the adult Splash Day Pass or costs THB 120 for unlimited rides if you buy a regular ticket. Vana Nava Falls, a 31 metre man-made waterfall, is visible from far around the park.

Facilities and Extras

The park uses an RFID wristband for cashless payment, so you do not need to carry cash or cards around the pools. Extras sold on the official booking site include:

• Towel rental: THB 100
• Locker rental: THB 150
• Adult or senior lunch buffet: THB 380
• Child lunch buffet (111 to 121 cm): THB 270, with children under 110 cm eating free
• Private beach hut for 2 to 4 people: THB 800
• Private cabana for 6 to 10 people: THB 1,200
• Air-conditioned water villa for 6 to 15 people: THB 2,000

There are restaurants and snack points around the park, including the Tree Top Lounge, whose menu was created with Iron Chef Chumpol Jangprai. The park also has a game arcade, retail shops and a massage pavilion.

Location and Getting There

Vana Nava Water Jungle is at 129/99 Soi Moo Baan Nong Kae in Nong Kae, south of central Hua Hin and close to Khao Takiab. It sits next to the Holiday Inn Vana Nava Hua Hin and is a short taxi or songthaew ride from the Hua Hin night market area. Hua Hin is around three hours by road from Bangkok, so the park is also popular with weekend visitors from the capital.

Good to Know

The park is open Monday to Sunday from 11:00 to 17:00. Height decides the ticket type: adult tickets are for guests 122 cm and above, child tickets for 111 to 121 cm, and senior tickets for guests aged 60 and over. The booking site does not list a ticket for children shorter than 111 cm, so check with the park before your visit if you are bringing small children. Some rides also have their own height and weight limits.

Surf zone and climbing wall sessions run at set times and the booking site says the date and time cannot be changed once booked. For the best value, the Vana Nava Water Jungle day pass bought online gives you entry plus towel, locker and the VR Slide for less than a regular ticket and add-ons bought separately.
