WELCOME to the first water playground in the Philippines.
The Fun Begins
The Municipality of Pavia in Iloilo City is a regional agro-industrial center that’s quickly been developing in recent years. So, there’s no better place to put up a new Robinsons Mall that’s opening this month. Whether it’s summer or not, the warm, humid climate tends to stick around all year especially in this particular area. To beat the heat, Robinsons Pavia has a refreshing take on the usual public playground set-up by introducing AquaFun. The sprawling 3,500 sqm. water wonderland is an entertaining and interactive way to cool down compared to the common pool as it features a lot of activities inside. Stroll along the wet area and immerse yourself in the aquatic life.
Aquatic Attractions
The first thing you’ll encounter is an Arc adorned with crashing waves and dolphins, that’s around 10 meters wide. It’s the perfect place for a group photo-op. Once you pass through the aquatic gates, you’ll step, no, splash into a playground that has a social media-worthy opportunity at every corner. Past the entrance, several towering Sea Animals will spray water to cool you down.
Continue splish-splashing straight ahead to check out the Octopus Sprinklers for a much-needed shower to wash away the prickly heat. Then, head on over to the Pool Playground where most of the kids will surely gather around to socialize while sliding to their heart’s content. We’re sure all the children will get along swimmingly. There are tall slides for the big kids, lower but wider slides for the younger ones, and a lot of twists and turns that are fun for the whole family. Exhausted from all the climbing and sliding? Take a break by the colorful Water Buckets, Water Spouts, Spray Grounds, and Jellyfish Sprinklers. How about dipping your feet in the Water Pond? If your tummy’s growling and then you can have chow time at the many concessionaires with food stalls in the area. Or perhaps chill by the mushroom-shaped cabanas and benches outside the wet area. Before you leave the premises, remember to take another group photo by the giant Whale structure that’s just by the far end of the entrance/exit. Climb into the mouth to take your unique cover photo—don’t worry it won’t bite! Are you worried that all these sea-faring activities might cause a major ouchie for the children? Parents can rest easy knowing that there’s a stationed nurse at the grounds. There are also 10 lifeguards who know basic first aid and are roaming the vicinity at all times. Now, all you have to focus on is having as much fun as possible!
