I haven't but a friends went who said it was really good and recommended it to us. We are going to go next year.

We went last August. It's a tiny park, with a little ride down a river, a small water park and the mermaid show. It was very different, and a "local" park. You need to go early in the day, as the park fills quickly and they close to entry at capacity. We were turned away the first time, so drove 10 minutes away to Pine Island Beach, which is THE most wonderful place in the world. I would recommend a visit to the park, but it does only fill about 2 hours of your day, so take your swimming gear and go into the water park bit, or drive to Pine Island afterwards and go in the warm sea, swim with the dolphins (yes - they have been there every time we have visited) and have a picnic on the beach under the palm trees.
