Waterbom Bali has been named the best waterpark in the world by the Tripadvisor Travelers’ Choice Awards: Best of the Best 2025. This award is unique because it is entirely based on guest reviews from around the world.
Waterbom also ranked third in the overall ranking of the top 25 amusement and water parks in the world, becoming the highest-rated waterpark on the planet. The park managed to surpass giants like Disney’s Hollywood Studios (USA), Legoland Billund (Denmark), and Universal Studios Singapore. For a 'boutique tropical-style waterpark,' this is a remarkable achievement.
The Travelers’ Choice Award highlights the best in tourism and is only awarded to those who have consistently received high volumes of excellent reviews over 12 months from the Tripadvisor community. This recognition is especially valuable as it is given to less than 1% of the eight million properties on Tripadvisor. Waterbom has held the title of the best waterpark in Asia for nine consecutive years and now has solidified its leadership on the global stage.
The park's CEO, Sayan Gulino, noted that the award reflects the team's dedication and their care for each visitor:
"We have always strived to be more than just a waterpark — our goal is to provide a unique experience with a focus on care, culture, and environmental responsibility."
Since its opening in 1993, Waterbom has garnered over 17,000 reviews on Tripadvisor and an average rating of 4.6 stars. In 2025, the park completed a renovation of the Kids and Family area, now offering even more attractions for guests of all ages.
Waterbom spans more than 5 hectares and features 26 world-class slides, tropical gardens, restaurants, poolside bars, and private cabanas for relaxation. It caters to guests with diverse interests: from thrill-seekers to families with children who prefer the spacious kids' zone, or those who wish to unwind on the 'lazy river,' away from the hustle and bustle.

In 2024, Waterbom was recognized as Asia's leading waterpark at the World Travel Awards and received the title of Asia's No. 1 for the ninth consecutive time according to Tripadvisor.
Special emphasis is placed on ecology: the park has implemented programs to reduce its environmental impact and has set a goal to achieve carbon neutrality by 2033. In support of its strategy, Waterbom has already received international awards in sustainable development, including the PATA Gold Awards 2023 and 2025.
