Nestled in Gamuda Cove, SplashMania has quickly become a sensation in the country, redefining the waterpark experience for both locals and tourists. SplashMania is a part of Gamuda Land‘s GL Play offering within its Leisure and Hospitality division.
Since its soft launch in February and official opening in July, SplashMania has consistently drawn over 75,000 visitors every month. This remarkable achievement is a testament to its unique offerings and overall experience.
So, what sets SplashMania apart from other waterpark attractions? It’s not just novelty; it’s the result of offering a truly exceptional experience, with world-class waterslides that are the first of their kind in Malaysia and Southeast Asia.
SplashMania: Thrilling aquatic adventures
SplashMania’s success is, in large part, due to its exceptional waterslide designs, some of which are entirely new to the region. Visitors are drawn to SplashMania for the opportunity to experience waterslides that are unique to this park, creating a regional monopoly on thrilling aquatic adventures.
The key to these extraordinary waterslides lies in the collaboration with ProSlide, a renowned Canadian company with over four decades of experience in designing award-winning waterslides for leading waterparks worldwide.
ProSlide’s impressive portfolio includes projects for Disney Blizzard Beach in Orlando, DreamWorks Waterpark in New Jersey, and Atlantis Aquaventure in Dubai and China. With an impressive tally of 16 International Association of Amusement Parks and Attractions (IAAPA) Best New Water Ride awards in the last 19 years.
ProSlide’s expertise was instrumental in creating some of SplashMania’s most popular waterslides, such as the Monsta & Twista. The Twista offers an exhilarating experience with high-speed slides leading to back-to-back saucers, creating a whirlwind of excitement for riders.
On the other hand, the Monsta sends riders into a 40′ diameter bowl in a slingshot motion before propelling them up the WAVE, a curved wall that adds a dynamic twist to the ride.
Commitment to offering something for everyone
The excitement doesn’t stop with the Monsta & Twista waterslides; SplashMania boasts a range of innovative waterslides that cater to a variety of preferences.
The Typhoon Terror waterslide offers a thrilling experience inspired by Olympic Bobsledding, with sharp turns leading to a slide into two open FlyingSAUCERs before the ride concludes. On the other hand, the Twin Turbo waterslide offers a competitive experience, featuring two channels for riders to engage in a splash-filled 1v1 contest.
It begins with riders separated in their respective sections before merging into an enclosed tube, providing a mid-way assessment of their positions and ending with a heightened sense of anticipation.
Curl & Swirl is a shorter waterslide but packs a punch with a 360° open bowl before sending riders zipping into a pool. Lastly, the Maniac Racers waterslide emulates a high-speed race with four lanes for riders to compete against each other. It starts with an open RallyPOINT for patrons to check out the competition before the lanes separate, providing a burst of speed within an enclosed teardrop curve.
These unique waterslide experiences have been a significant draw for SplashMania visitors, contributing to its impressive success. The park’s commitment to offering something for everyone has earned it recognition, including three awards at the Golden Horse Awards organised by the Malaysian Association of Themepark & Family Attractions (MATFA): Waterpark of the Year 2023, Best New Water Attraction, and Best Theme Park – Environment & Sustainability Initiative.
Beyond the waterslides, SplashMania offers an array of attractions that cater to families, adrenaline junkies, and those seeking a good time. The park’s commitment to safety, quality, and innovation has propelled it to the forefront of the entertainment industry.
