Experience free-falling from four storeys high and twist and turn on Torpedo! You never know G-Force can be this fun! The first of its kind in Singapore, the all-new Torpedo ejects you from an 18-metre-high capsule right into a heart-stopping free fall, which propels you straight into a manic trajectory of hair-raising twist and turns at mind-numbing speed of up to 70km/hr.
Slide Up
Imagine plunging down a four-storey ramp, accelerating until you hit the deck and skimming across to soar on the opposite side. Now repeat that several times until your momentum runs out! Ever wished you could skateboard like a pro? Here’s your chance to do so on a platform slicked with water for that extra kick! Powered by gravity and kinetic energy, the Slide Up is a cool way to indulge your need for speed.
But just remember there’s always room for improvement. So grab an inflatable raft, settle in and start shoving off!
Ular-Lah
The first raft slide in Southeast Asia, Ular-Lah is a super flume ride that offers you a chance to brave the rapids with five other companions. Ideal for thrill and adrenaline seekers, it’s the closest thing you’ll ever experience next to white water rafting!
Be the first to race to a spectacular finish in the landing pool, but don’t be disappointed if it’s over too soon. You can always reward yourself with another ride!
The Water Works
Slam your way through wacky curves and crazy turnings with The Waterworks, the high-speed flume ride that makes a maze look like
child’s play! This twisty ride comes in two flavours: open and covered body slides, each with its own unique route and distinctive angles. With so many variables to play with, The Waterworks is perfect for friendly races to see who can hit the landing pool first! Familiarise yourself with the turnings and develop different techniques to improve your speed! Here’s a hint: lying down makes you go faster!

Professor’s Playground
Looking for a place that will generate hours of fun for your kids? What can be a better way to rivet a kid’s attention than the double attraction of a playground located in a swimming pool? Designed around the theme of an experimental laboratory, Professor’s Playground packs a myriad of classic fixtures such as slides, ladders, water cannons and fountains. At a comfortable depth of 0.3 metres, it’s safe even for the most zealous child keen on exploring and taking charge of his/her surroundings. One thing’s for sure, playing in the water has never been this fun!
Yippie!
Hoping to introduce your littlest one to the joy of playing with water? Wild Wild Wet has the perfect answer for you! Yippee! is a shallow sloshing area filled with soft play equipment designed to provide a safe and fun environment for toddlers. Other than generating hours of amusement for your kid, it’s also a primer course to the intermediate Professor’s Playground next door! But don’t be in a hurry to decide when your kid is ready to move on, because fun can always be found in the simplest of things!
Shiok River
Spanning 335 metres in length, Shiok River skirts the perimeter of the park, meandering through a variety of lush landscape that will leave you soothed and invigorated.
Take a breather, go with the flow and let the trip wash away your cares. It’s a great way to escape from all the commotion and noise of everyday life.
Tubes are optional for those who prefer to travel at their own pace. You can snooze your way through a dream-filled journey that will last as long as you want. Or take a quick dip to recharge your batteries before plunging into some of our more exciting rides again!
Tsunami
Tsunami
combines the best of swimming pools and the sea to give you the excitement of
the surf under controlled conditions. Without the hassle of choppy swells or
dangerous currents, even kids can feel totally at ease in
the water.
Take your time to enjoy these waves as you lie back and soak up the sun and fun.
Jacuzzi
Fluid jets to rub and ease the kinks in your muscles plus a bubbly massage that soothes your aches. Don’t recall water ever feeling this good?
Unwind in the Jacuzzi, our answer to tired bodies in need of recharging. A good way to stop and catch your breath, it can even be the centre of a family event. The unusual water action goes a long way towards keeping the little ones occupied, while adults can take the opportunity to catch up with one another.
DINING
Breeze Cafe & Ice Cream Stop
Breeze Cafe & Ice Cream Stop is the only Food and Beverage outlet within the park and endeavours to cater to all. They will also work with group operators, small parties, birthday celebrations and others to offer a wholesome experience to guests of the theme park.
OUR THOUGHTS
We had a wonderful stay at D’Resort and would highly recommend this resort for family travellers. It’s close location to the Airport is superb and there are plenty of activities to do within the resort that 2 nights wasn’t enough for us. Until next time.
We would like to thank D’Resort @ Downtown East for hosting our stay and as always, we would never recommend a service or product that we didn’t honestly enjoy.
