Kensington Mums had the refreshing opportunity to visit Lalandia’s Aquadome! When we say refreshing it is literally that! It is the perfect family day outing as you can spend there the whole day.
As London’s weather is getting hotter and hotter, you can literally visit Lalandia just for the day. You can hop onto a flight from Stansted airport and 1 hour and 10 min later you can simply walk 15 min or take a bus from Billund Airport that will take you to Lalandia’s entrance.
The Aquadome – a real paradise for younger and older crowds. You have all you can imagine the ultimate fun aqua park experience.
Upon entering you might think you are in the canals of Venice with some Italian-looking decor. They are fully equipped for you to spend hours inside their facilities. They have a supermarket and many shops that sell souvenirs all the way to all you need from swimming costumes, accessories and more. You also have activities catered to children and adults as there are millions of attractions from mini golf all the way to arcades, padel, Monkey Land, and climbing wall. and even a Winter Land.
Once you are in the tropical Aquadome you are given a wristband that you must keep on at all times as this is the way to get back to your locker and also you can use this as a payment method. So, it is very convenient as you can leave all your belongings in the lockers in the changing areas and just carry around your essentials.
They have a restaurant that caters to all palates. As they have an American, Italian and Asian-style menu as well as salads and beers and soft beverages.
Something I really liked was that it is a must to wash yourself with soap before entering the Aquadome.
Now, you are ready to start your own Aquadome adventure. I loved that it feels as they called it the tropical Aquadome. You really feel inside as if you are in the tropics; the temperature is just lovely and feels warm enough after being inside the pools.
They really catered to everyone; there are small pools for babies and toddlers all the way to grown-up pools. When you are ready you can then feel the rush with the fun water slides they have. For small ones and for older ones such as the Beach Racers, Tornado slide, Double Tube, Octopus Racer, Temple, Twister, and Bunker Tube slides will keep you your high adrenaline rush.
Our favourite was the Wave Pool where you can wait to feel just as if you are in the ocean and it is accessible for all as little ones can be right at the edge of the pool for a soft wave or if you fancy a higher wave then go all the way to the front of the pool.
The Aqua Splash Playground was by far my son’s favourite where he was able to squirt water to everyone passing and just on me!
You also have access as well to an outside pool which is lovely if the weather is nice. There is also an indoor and outdoor hot pool with massage jets which are open all year long! They also have a huge jumping pillow for the kids in the outside area.
You can go for a more relaxed experience and just visit the sauna. Where you can then get a cold shower and repeat and then lay down on the relaxing area they have with hammocks.
During the day and depending on when you go they offer activities geared to the whole family. We were able to attend a special aromatherapy sauna activity geared for children where they set the sauna at a perfect temperature for the little ones and use aromatherapy oils which are an absolute delight and highly recommended to attend. After you are greeted with a refreshing savoury water.
We also experienced another activity which was to be a mermaid – yes you read right. This activity happens in the outside pool and they give you the opportunity to be a mermaid for a few minutes by providing children with a mermaid tail costume that they can put on and then feel as if they are a real mermaid! A fun activity for the little ones too that we recommend.
We stayed almost a whole day and if we were not supposed to catch a flight back to London we would have stayed until closing time. As it didn’t even matter that my son’s finger looked literally as raisins all wrinkled after being in the water for hours. We just couldn’t leave the Aquadome.
So, trust us when we say either you add Lalandia to your Billund visit or you just go for the day from London you surely will create lasting unforgettable memories and will win the title of the best parent in the world as I did! Thank you Lalandia we will surely be back!
