55I love this place, my dogs and I got a nice time, the only thing I would recommend is maybe to adjust a slide inside de pool for dogs that ate not used to the stairs or to jump in the pool, my dogs likes the gradual floor and I thought the entrance of the pool was like that, they played a lot but they were just at the first step in the pool the whole time, bc they really love water. So idk maybe adding the slide in the pool will be very helpful for dogs that are not used to jump at the water. Other than that, the place is pretty cool, it has toys, water, towels and treats for our furrys Fiorella L.

55This was so so so much fun for my dog and me. She’s a lab and loves to swim, but we don’t have a pool and going to the beach isn’t always convenient. Albert was an amazing host. He was great with communication. He had the perfect set-up with a cooler filled with drinks and a cabana with towels/speaker/water bowls/sunscreen/toys for my dog! He even had a homemade dog treat that my girl loved!!! The area was clean and fun to lay out and watch my dog play in the pool. Great experience. We will definitely be back! Lexie K.

55Albert’s spot is so unique and welcoming - quite a treat for lucky dogs! It felt like being in our own backyard (if we had green thumbs and our act together)! Literally anything you need is within reach. No pictures to post because our guys never stayed still long enough - running around the lush yard and swimming laps in the water. The good time was concluded with a yummy treat, thoughtfully labeled with our guys’ names so we knew whose was whose. 😉 Thank you, Tropical Oasis!Meredith K.

55The Hidden Tropical Oasis is the perfect place to swim with your pups. The place has everything: towels, dog toys, balls, sunscreen, mosquitos spray and more.
Albert was fantastic. We did not see each other in person. We communicated through message and he was always available. Albert also left some frozen treat for pups(they devoured in seconds) 😆
If you are looking for a place to have fun with the pups, give this place a try! Morgana T.

55We had an amazing experience at Albert’s place! The backyard space was very relaxing & had so many beautiful plants. My dog had SO much fun swimming in the pool, exploring the fenced in yard, & playing with all of the fun dog toys the host provided. The host went above and beyond to provide a great experience for us and our dog. We will definitely be back! :) Haylee E.

55We had the BEST time at Albert’s oasis! Our sweet pup is not dog friendly so we are always on the lookout for a place she can be off leash and play. Albert’s place was perfect for us!
The backyard was spacious and absolutely beautiful with tons of plants and chairs to sit and relax. Our pup loved chasing lizards and exploring all the open space.
The extra attention to detail was very appreciated; towels for us to use, dog toys, floats, and even sunscreen. Albert went above and beyond to make sure we were comfortable while enjoying ourselves. Stormee M.

55I do not want to leave the review because I wanted to keep this place from the crowds. I have tried to find a place that offered a swimming pool for dog for a long time, and I finally found one. I just wish that the rate is $15 cheaper per hour per dog because I don’t go swim with my dog. I just want to throw ball for her to swim to pick up back and forth for her exercising. Will definitely go back but prob can’t be as often as I wanted due to pricing. Thank you/ sasiwimon h.

FAQ about our Jacksonville dog water parks
Are dog water parks safe?

All Sniffspot locations are vetted and reviewed by guests so you can find the perfect place for you and your dog. 93% of reviews on Sniffspot visits are 5 stars. If you are worried about whether you can have an enjoyable water experience, just know that it is possible to have peace of mind when visiting dog waterparks by following basic safety guidelines.

How do I know if a dog water park works for my dog?
Start by applying basic filters, such as fencing and distractions, to find a dog park that works for your dog. If your dog doesn't have good recall, you can visit one of our fully fenced dog water parks. If your dog is reactive to other dogs, you can visit one of our dog water parks where there are no dogs audible or visible nearby. Make sure to review the amenities of the spot to see what kind of water features are offered to make sure it works for your dog. If your dog is not a strong swimmer, then perhaps choose a dog water park with tamer water features rather than a river or beach, for instance. We also recommend reading reviews and reaching out to the host with any questions, and of course, checking water park hours.
What are the requirements to bring my dog to a Sniffspot water park?
We require that all dogs have basic vaccinations or equivalent titers. We do not allow dogs with a bite history. We require that guests sign our waiver and agree to follow our safety rules. Additionally, we recommend following our water safety guidelines.
