Clean environment & good location. Everything was well prepared. Cooling air conditioner. Just a little noisy if someone is talking at/ walking by the corridors.

It's worth the money, the facilities are all new. Except for the shower room, which needs to be improved. There are many areas for playing in the water and hot springs, and children can also play. It should be good during the day. You can bring your own swimming ring.

Had a great day at Lost World of Tambun with great rides and water play. Ticket redemption is easy and best part is unlimited access to lockers (which makes it super convenient).

Cheaper to buy tickets in Klook. Since it's not school holiday, they're not many people and it's faster to queue for rides. Do note that the Amusement park, and Rainfortress, etc (right area of park map) opens until 6pm whereas the other (left) areas open until 10pm or 11pm.
