Riding the wave of popularity (if you’ll pardon the pun), the original developers of the CoCo Key Water Resorts opened a chain of indoor water park hotels, hit some rough waters (sorry for the second pun), and sold off the properties. The Mt. Laurel location is now independently owned and operated but remains more or less the same as the other CoCo Keys.
At 55,000 square feet, these medium-sized indoor water parks are themed to 1930’s-era Key West. Unlike larger parks, such as the Great Wolf Lodge in the Poconos, CoCo Key does not offer high-profile attractions like uphill water coasters or indoor wave pools. It does, however, offer body slides, a couple of 2-person raft slides, a lazy river, and an indoor/outdoor spa. In its center is the colorful Parrot’s Perch, an interactive water play center with smaller slides and a tipping bucket.
For younger children, there are kiddo-sized water activities available, such as the Dip-In wading pool. In addition to the indoor water park, CoCo Key includes a video arcade and party rooms. Given its lack of thrill rides, the park is primarily geared towards families with children 12 and under.
The Key Quest Arcade offers video games and redemption games, making it a fun experience for all ages.
2. Tickets, Admission Policy, and Hotel Information
The water park is open to registered hotel guests, and hotel/park packages are available. Additionally, day passes are accessible to the general public. CoCo Key also offers birthday party and event packages, while season passes and group rates are available for larger families or gatherings.
The adjoining Hotel ML boasts 283 guest rooms, meeting facilities, function rooms, a fitness center, and a restaurant. Among the room options are suites featuring a living room and sofa bed. The restaurant serves breakfast, lunch, and dinner; however, not all room rates include admission to the water park. Packages that include overnight stays at the hotel and passes to the park are also available for convenience.
3. Park Opening Hours
As an indoor water park, CoCo Key is climate-controlled, ensuring a comfortable experience year-round. The park opens nearly all weekends, and during the summer and school vacations, it is also open most weekdays, along with select weekdays during the remainder of the year. Therefore, it’s recommended to check with the park for operating hours.
4. Dining Options
Inside the park, CoCo Key features Gator’s Grab-n-Go, which serves pizza, sandwiches, snacks, and other tasty treats. The Wet Rooster is a full-service bar that overlooks the park, providing a great spot for adults to relax.
Dining options extend to the Hotel ML, where Talia’s Restaurant offers a full-service menu including steaks, flatbreads, and burgers. The adjacent T-Bar lounge serves an array of beer, wine, and cocktails, allowing for a complete dining experience.
