I went to a birthday party and loved how nice the park was, I decided to book it for my 4 year old's birthday. At the time of the reservation I had no intention of booking any entertainment. The event was booked for 5/7, I had zero luck booking a superhero, until the day before the event, one of the companies on the Doral approved list said they could squeeze us in, originally they had told me they didn't have availability. I paid them at 955pm the night before. I honestly forgot there was a form to fill out. The day of the party we showed up at 1pm to set up, and our pavillion was full of people from the park that had camped out at the tables. I had to get everyone to move so i could set up. The girl that was going by to have me confirm and sign was very dry, nothing like the girl that booked the date. she checked my coolers to make sure I had no alcohol one by one, which fine but it felt a little overkill to go through each one. Fast forward and the character showed up, he was booked for 45 min. 2 girls from the park showed up and very rudely said where my guests could all hear that we were in violation and we didn't submit the form. I apologized and explained that it was all last minute, they proceeded to tell me again I was in violation and that if the character didn't leave immediately they would keep my deposit. I explained again it was my oversight but that I had paid super late the night before. they didn't care they were super rude, I was super embarrassed. After the party I had to go look for the girl, who didn't even say anything to me, but as I signed I saw it was circled that I was unsatisfactory in rules and regulations and something else. I was so apalled but since they told me that if the character left immediately I would still get my $100 deposit, I decided to let it be. Well today I look at my bank account and sure enough they cashed my deposit check yesterday. I am so upset, they really made the experience so uncomfortable and embarrassing. It was a spiderman that we ultimately let all the kids in the park come and say hi, because how do you tell a bunch of little kids, sorry not your party. It was an honest mistake and I apologized for my oversight. I will never again go there or book at Doral. For not being a resident we even paid substantially more and to have a...
Read moreI used to believe this park was safe—a place where families could relax and kids could just be kids. I couldn’t have been more wrong. As a father, I’m furious and disgusted.
My teenage daughter went to this park with her friends for what should’ve been a normal, fun day. But when she came home, she was pale, shaking, and in tears. She told me how a grown man—a worker at this park—stormed into the women’s bathroom and started yelling at her and her friend to “get out.” Why were they in the same stall? Because my daughter had just gotten her period unexpectedly, and her friend was helping her. She was already overwhelmed, and this creep decided it was okay to barge in and terrify two teenage girls.
But it gets worse. As I was leaving the park in my car, this same worker had the audacity to stop me and confront me. He didn’t apologize or explain himself—instead, he LIED straight to my face. He told me my daughter had been “in the bushes with a boy.” Yes, my daughter was with a boy earlier because he’s her friend, but this man twisted the story to make it sound disgusting. He tried to cover up his own behavior by spreading a false and inappropriate narrative about my child.
Parents, don’t be fooled by how “safe” a place looks. There are creeps everywhere—yes, even the ones wearing uniforms and getting paid to work around kids. Stay vigilant.

Read moreI would have rated this park a 5 because it’s usually clean and well-kept, but recently I learned something that completely changed how I feel. Parents, please listen. My daughter, a teenager, went to this park with her friends for what was supposed to be a normal, fun day. She came home absolutely terrified. Shaking. Crying. She told me how a male worker—yes, a grown man—stormed into the women’s bathroom screaming at her and her friend to “get out.” To make this worse, my daughter and her friend were in the same stall because she had just gotten her period unexpectedly and didn’t know what to do. She was already overwhelmed and scared in that moment—only for an absolute creep to barge in, violating their privacy in a place where they should have felt safe. This is beyond unacceptable. Parents, please stay vigilant. We live in a world where you can’t trust anyone—not even the people hired to work at places our kids should enjoy. Pedophiles and predators are everywhere nowadays. Protect your children...
