Castles N' Coasters

My kids LOVED this place (ages 7 & 10). It was a great way to spend a Sunday. $45/preson gets you mini golf, 1 hr in arcade, climbing course, and access to all the rides in the park. The lines were fast and the rides were perfect for my kids ages. Bring your own water as the cost of food & drink is ridiculous (like all parks). Perfect little adventure park, my kids asked to go back the next day.

Lots of fun, but the food area needs some work Castles N’ Coasters is such a fun spot in Phoenix! It’s got a great mix of thrill rides, family activities, and that classic amusement park vibe that makes you feel like a kid again. The Desert Storm roller coaster is wild — fast loops and twists that definitely get your heart racing. I also really liked the Skydiver drop ride and the Splashdown log flume, which is perfect on a hot day. The go-karts were a blast too, and the arcade has tons of games — some new, some old-school favorites. The staff around the park were friendly and helpful, and it felt safe and family-friendly the whole time. Mini golf was cute and well-designed, and the park overall was clean and easy to get around. The only real downside for me was the indoor dining area. When you order food, it comes in paper cartons instead of on plates or trays, so it’s kind of awkward to eat — especially if you’re sharing or have kids. Also, the tables in the food area weren’t very clean; a few still had crumbs or spills from other guests. It wasn’t terrible, but it definitely stood out compared to how well the rest of the park is run. Other than that, it’s a great place to spend a few hours or even the whole day. There’s something for everyone, and the prices are pretty fair for what you get. I’d definitely go back — just hoping they improve the dining setup next time! Along with tighten up on the restroom.

This park holds a good amount of fun and engaging things to do. We purchased the Elite passes that included an hour of video game time in the arcade (no tickets rewarded though), a round of mini golf and unlimited rides on sale for $50 a head. I thought this was a bit pricey until I realized all that was included! Unlike most venues where you would pay extra for some of the more niche activities (zip line and go karts for example) everything besides the fun house was included in our ticket price! There was enough going on to keep our family (ages 9-65) busy for 8 hours and we didn't even make it to the mini golf. Don't get me wrong, it's not one of those big name theme parks but the waits were reasonable and everyone had a lot of fun. Might even go again ☺️.

We always see this park driving by on 17 and finally decided to try it. I wasn't sure what to expect from previous reviews- but my family had a blast. We did the Elite Passes and immediately used up our hour in the arcade. Then we did the rides, and most had barely any lines. My kids are 5 and 7 and they were able to do almost all of the rides. The only long line was the gocart line- but at other amusement parks that wait is the standard for every ride. We finished the night with mini golf- also super fun. It was a fun, budget friendly amusement park adventure that was perfect for our kids.

I would describe this as a mini Elitch Gardens (Denver, CO), with half as many rides, and mini golf instead of a water park. Our visit included all the rides, an hour of free video games in the arcade, and free go karts. That was pretty fun for people who never spend money on video games or go karts. :) We're the type of people who stay at amusement parks from open to close, but after 4 hours we had done everything and were ready to leave. That's not a bad thing, though, it was because there were no lines! It included 1 hour in the arcade, 18 holes of mini golf, plus riding all the rides once or twice. Most important: no lines!
