![]() I'll be honest, we were really not prepared well for our stay in terms of how to maximize your Gaylord Opryland SoundWaves visit in Nashville. The park also has an excellent kids play area called “Quarter Note Cove.” Though at 10 and 7, Elias and Adeline loved it, going down the slides and enjoying being drenched by the bucket dump. We did them again and again, screaming with joy over and over. It was super fun and we did it no less than a dozen times. The Rapids River was unlike anything I have ever experienced at a waterpark. The park has two rivers – a traditional lazy river that you enjoy in an inner tube and the “Up Tempo Rapids River” which is a river with a strong current that you swim in. Also in that area was a lilypad rope walk, which Elias crushed. It really made what was already a great experience even better.Īdeline LOVED the rock wall, which was in the “Groovin' Lagoon Activity Pool.” I think she walked across it half a dozen times. The kids and I all had different staff and every single one was kind and thorough. One of the things I was most impressed with about the FlowRider was how attentive the staff were to making sure every person was prepared for the ride. You only need to do it once for the duration of your time at SoundWaves. Know that you need to sign a release to ride it, so that takes a few minutes to do on an ipad. When doors opened at 11, this was the ride most people went running for. The most popular ride is the FlowRider, a ride the simulates surfing. When we visited, we didn't find it overcrowded, which meant that, while there were lines, we never waited long – even for our favorite slides. One of my favorite parts of SoundWaves is that its size is perfect to get the complete experience. If I sound like I am gushing it is because Gaylord Opryland's SoundWaves exceeded my expectations in every way. Honestly and truly, we loved freakin' everything. SoundWaves' policy says no food or drink can be brought into the park, though I did see a few families who had snacks in their bags. ![]() ![]() I did some research and found that Davidson County residents can receive discounts up to 40 percent off by registering here: You could also save money buy bringing food for your hotel room (our room was equipped with a mini fridge). We cannot WAIT to go back.Ĭurrently, you can also visit SoundWaves if you stay overnight at the hotel. This opening will make it the first upscale indoor/outdoor resort water attraction in the U.S., featuring four acres of attractions and amenities. ![]() In May 2019, SoundWaves will open an additional 106,000 square feet of outdoor attractions, including a 315,000-gallon wave pool with a massive LED screen, kids pool with a multi-level play structure, adults-only pool, restaurants, private cabanas and more. I really thought the music added a lot to the environment. The music is tailored to the different areas, such as upbeat pop for the waterslides and more easy, down-tempo songs for the lazy river. Music is definitely a part of the SoundWaves experience, with a mix of pop and new country throughout. The park also includes floor to ceiling windows and skylights, flooding it with natural light. Palm trees are throughout and the 80 degree temperature makes you feel like you are outside. I have been to many waterparks over the course of my life and have never experienced one as beautiful and well-thought-out as SoundWaves. With its modern design, it truly is an upscale experience. Essentials like locker rooms with showers, lockers, life vests for kids and inexperienced swimmers, towels, and a restaurant are also available. SoundWaves is currently an indoor-only water park in Nashville, that includes a multi-waterslide tower, FlowRider® surfing, rapid and lazy rivers, pools for kids and adults, rock climbing, VR experiences, restaurants, private cabanas and more. About SoundWaves in Nashvilleįirst, about the waterpark itself. Because we usually stay at AirBNB's, it was such a fun experience for the kids to stay in a hotel, especially one as beautiful as Opryland. We were so grateful that Opryland invited us to come. Over winter break, Elias, Adeline and I stayed at Gaylord Opryland Hotel in Nashville for a hosted one-night staycation to experience their new Soundwaves water park.
