(Texas City, Texas –) Lagoonfest Texas is adding to the visitor experience by introducing floating cabanas to its list of features.
These “aquabanas” are linked together, creating a pool at their center that will be exclusive to those renting the floating cabanas. Regular cabanas seat six while the larger cabanas can accommodate 12 guests.
“We are pioneering bringing unique experiences to Texas,” said Uri Man, Chief Executive Officer of The Lagoon Development Company. “These floating cabanas are a game-changer. We are proud to bring unique, memorable experiences to our patrons.”
The aquabanas are accessible via Paradise Shore, the lagoon’s VIP beach.
Man said these are the first floating cabanas to be featured on a Crystal Lagoons® amenity in Texas.
At 12 acres, the Lago Mar lagoon is the state’s largest, and it offers the most shoreline of any lagoon in the nation. It holds 24 million gallons of water and the lagoon’s liner system is large enough to cover the entire Houston Galleria mall or 14 NFL football fields. The lagoon surface is equivalent to an approximate 1,350 home swimming pools.
