What do we know about Koblevo? This is a popular resort on the Black Sea, on the border of the Odessa and Nikolaev regions. It is also known that Koblevo is a famous center of winemaking in Ukraine. But there is one more thing that makes the resort very attractive. And this is a water park. Mostly families with children rest in Koblevo. And kids want to have fun. And adults (at least some) love to tickle their nerves with adrenaline. Therefore, the idea of building a water park has always been relevant. First, the recreation center "Orbita" acquired the town of water entertainment. And since 2007, the city water park began to work, which is called “Koblevo”. This article, based on reviews and photographs taken by tourists, will help you understand how to get to the attractions, how much the entrance costs, what interesting slides are and what discounts you can get.
How to get to Koblevo
Administratively, the resort belongs to the Nikolaev region. But it is much closer to Odessa - forty kilometersagainst seventy. Regular buses run from both regional centers very often. The Koblevo resort stands, as it were, on a cape, so from the Odessa-Nikolaev highway, where the bus station is located, you still need to get to the town itself. Minibuses deliver passengers to the new water park, passing along local recreation centers and boarding houses. "Orbita" is located near the sea. Here you can decide which water park in Koblevo to choose - new or old. But it is better to use the buses that go to the resort itself. From Odessa, they depart from Privoz (50 hryvnia, that is, about 150-200 Russian rubles, depending on the exchange rate). From Nikolaev - from the main bus station. There is another option, the so-called "free". If you take a ticket for the whole day, then the trip to the water park from Odessa, Nikolaev and Kherson will cost you nothing. But then, reviews warn, discounts and flyers do not work.
Water park "Orbita" in Koblevo
This recreation center is located near the sea. Therefore, there is no need to drill a well to get water for the water park. This has its advantages. There is no smell of chlorine in the air, it does not hurt the eyes from diving. Sea water is filtered, and therefore there are no algae and jellyfish in it. The infrastructure in this institution is thought out even better than in Odessa. Everything is clean and tidy. Reviews note the courtesy and care of the staff. Visitors were pleasantly surprised by the range of entertainment for children. For them, a whole town of attractions has been built in the Orbita water park. With food, everything is the best. Of course, howand in all water parks, visitors are asked not to bring food and drinks with them. But if in Odessa a real search is arranged at the entrance, then here, people say, no one rummages in bags. The water park has a pizzeria, a bistro and an Italian cafe. What pleased the visitors, here you can go out for a while (at least in order to have lunch). They put a stamp on the hand, and then you can return for free.
Entertainment at Orbit
Visitors got the impression that this water park in Koblevo is focused mainly on the little ones. There is a large playground for children. There are slides even for timid three-year-olds - Baby Slide. And younger students can try to slide down the Kids Slide. Enough adrenaline for adults too. The most extreme attraction, without exception, all the reviews called the "Rocket" (aka "Capsule"). Many took their breath away on the "Black Hole" slide, which the people dubbed more precisely - "Toilet". There it twists, turns over and carries away into the darkness a turbulent stream. Many liked "Mountain Descent" and "Bottom Up". Reviews point to one nice feature of this institution. In "Orbit" there is no such influx of people as in Odessa or even the new water park "Koblevo". Therefore, a day spent here will be remembered for fun and entertainment, and not for boring queuing in an angry crowd.
Prices at Orbita
The lion's share of tourists mentions that they visited the water park in Koblevo for a promotion. Yes, regular prices "bite": dailya ticket (from opening at 10.00 and closing at 18.00) costs UAH 380 for adults and UAH 280 for children whose height does not exceed 140 centimeters. Children under three years of age enter free. If you enter the water park after 14.00, then the prices drop to 350 and 250, respectively. The last two hours before closing will cost you 310 and 210 hryvnia. But during the season, the water park agents distribute flyers that make it possible to get a discount of up to 50 percent. You can also get promotions online. If you are celebrating a birthday, then the original and a copy of your passport (or birth certificate) will open the doors of the water park for you absolutely free of charge. And it's not just on the birthdays themselves. The fun continues for the next two days. But weekends and holidays do not affect the prices in the water park. Visitors are warned that a deposit (UAH 60) is taken for a locker and a bracelet with a key.
Food and other services
Orbita is a very popular water park in Koblevo. Reviews note that children's pools here are better than in the new one. Everyone sings laudatory odes to low prices in the cafes and canteens of the water park. The food is very tasty. There are sun loungers around the pools, and there is enough space for everyone. The slides for adults are smaller than in the new water park, but they are enough for a fun-filled holiday with the whole family. The attractions are quite safe, the joints on the slides are not felt. Around each pool, two people from the staff are on duty. On the slides they help to sit on a bun, instruct how and where to go. The courtesy and friendliness of the staff is repeatedly mentioned by visitors in the reviews.
Aquapark "Koblevo"
It opened in August 2007 and now is a worthy competitor to the Odessa institution. And many people come from regional centers to visit this water park in Koblevo. Photos show that the water in the pools is azure. And it's not cheating. Water is pumped from a deep artesian well. The new water park uses modern technology for its cleaning. Therefore, there is also no smell of bleach, although the water is fresh. The safety of guests is monitored by a team of instructors and lifeguards. Reviews say that the new water park in Koblevo is a whole town. There are swimming pools, a relaxation area with a jacuzzi, slides, cafes and restaurants, parking and even your own hotel.
Hotel
The administration took note of the experience of water parks in the UAE. In such entertainment towns you can live in the truest sense of the word. However, in "Koblevo" the hotel is small - only four double rooms. But these are deluxe rooms. They are equipped with air conditioning, plasma TV with satellite channels, refrigerator, electric kettle. Each room has a unique design. Breakfast is included in the price. The price for a double room was seven hundred hryvnia (2100-2800 rubles depending on the exchange rate) per day. Which is not so much for a quality holiday in Koblevo. The water park provides its residents with free access to attractions if guests stay overnight for 3 days or more.
Prices
In the summer of 2015, they increased markedly. Now the price of a single visit is four hundred hryvnia (1200-1500 rubles). But there is still a system of attracting customers with various promotional offers, drawings of tickets and discounts. To save money, you need to regularly look at the site of the water park. Unlike Orbita, Koblevo's tariffs change depending on the days of the week and even the season. So, on weekends and holidays from July 25 to August 31 this year, prices were 540 hryvnia (1,650 rubles) per adult and 460 hryvnias (1,400 rubles) per child. And this is only for using the services of the water park from ten in the morning until two in the afternoon. Therefore, the hotel, where prices have not risen, has become so popular. The same expensive seemed to tourists who left reviews, food. And since even drinking water cannot be brought into the complex, this rule has been severely criticized by vacationers.
Slides in the water park "Koblevo"
Reviews note that here you will find a wide variety of attractions: for children, for riding with the whole family, adults and even extreme ones. Judging by the reviews, the kids like the "Water Tower", serpentine and multi-slide. The last attraction is a wide slide, from which you can roll down the whole crowd - at speed.
Family rafting is a four-seat raft ride. And the “Flying Boat” is a sliding in double “buns”. Not many dare to ride the Black Hole ride or fall into the Space Vortex. Basically, they note reviews, queues line up for "buns" andon a multi-slide. The administration of the water park is constantly coming up with other ways to amuse their guests. So, last year a new slide "Boomerang" was opened. Take a break from your adrenaline rush by the large swimming pool with sun loungers and umbrellas.
