From the most extreme slides to total relaxation: The perfect plan at Cafam Melgar

There are days when the same person wants to launch themselves from the top of a slide and, two hours later, float around doing absolutely nothing. A family trip where teenagers are looking for speed, children want to splash around, and adults need some time to unwind may seem difficult to plan in one place, but that is exactly what Cafam Melgar does well.

The Vacation Center brings together attractions ranging from pure adrenaline to total relaxation, all within a complex where every member of the family can find their own pace without anyone having to compromise.

• For those looking for thrills

Cafalandia, the complex's water park, brings together the attractions that get your heart racing. These are not ordinary slides: each one offers a different challenge that makes the wait worthwhile.

Among all the attractions, the Water Roller Coaster stands out: it is the crown jewel of the complex and a one of a kind attraction in Latin America. It combines the mechanics of a traditional roller coaster with a hydro-propulsion system that sends visitors through a course of climbs, drops, and curves over the water. There is nothing comparable at another park in the region.

The extreme slides offer three distinct courses: Hidra, with tight turns inside a semi-enclosed tube; Medusa, which combines speed with open sections where you can see the drop below; and Red Dragon, the most vertical of the three, designed for those who enjoy free-falling before hitting the water.

Each one delivers its own level of intensity, allowing you to gradually increase the thrill or go straight for the one that catches your attention the most.

• For those who prefer to take it easy

Just a few meters from the slides, the pace changes completely. The park features areas designed for those who enjoy water without speed, sunshine without commotion and guilt-free relaxation.

The Lazy River is a gentle-current circuit that winds through part of the complex on an individual float. It is ideal for talking, closing your eyes, or simply letting yourself drift while the Melgar sun does its thing. The Wave Pool recreates the motion of the sea in a controlled environment, with gradually increasing waves that are fun without being intimidating—one of the family favorites for those with children.

The three family pools complete the offering with varying depths, nearby shaded areas, and enough space to spend hours without feeling crowded. And for the little ones, the Interactive Fountains and children's slides create a world of their own where splashing, running and playing with water are the only rules.

Nature that recharges your energy

When your body calls for a change of scenery, the Biopark ffers a break unlike anything else in the water park. More than 350 animals from 80 rescued species live in an environment of shaded trails, native vegetation and conservation programs recognized with the Environmental Merit Medal from Cortolima.

Walking slowly along its paths, stopping to observe the birds, or learning the story behind each rescued animal works as a reset for adults and a hands-on lesson for children. It does not compete with the water attractions—it complements them.

A dining experience that also surprises

Between slides and pools, hunger sets in. And at Cafam Melgar, eating is another attraction.

• Jurásico Restaurante Bar

It welcomes diners with life-size animatronic dinosaurs and an interactive mapping show projected directly onto the tables. The menu includes à la carte dishes and exclusive cocktails that turn lunch into an experience.

• Pizzería Makaná

It satisfies cravings with artisanal recipes that can be ordered through internal delivery to any area of the complex.

• The Ancla Sport Bar

Located next to Hotel Almirante, it offers beer, food and sports broadcasts to wrap up the day with a different kind of plan.

In addition, kiosks, soda fountains and fast-food spots are strategically distributed throughout the complex so no one has to walk too far when thirst or hunger strikes between one attraction and the next.

At the end of the day, rest becomes part of the plan

After hours of sun, water, and exploring, rest feels twice as good. The Kualamaná and Almirante Hotels offer modern rooms surrounded by green spaces, with direct access to the attractions and internal transportation. The Vacation Homes add privacy and spaciousness for families who prefer to have their own space.

All options include an admission wristband—which also serves as a payment method within the complex—and convenient access to restaurants, pools, and recreational areas.
