		"Review": "We went here for a day trip to try out their highlight attractions such as the Tarp Slide and we also saw that there was a Dive Board for those who have the courage to try it. I was kinda sad that they do not have the Water Blob anymore. You can go here to have a change of setting from the usual activities offered in Samal and seek that thrill of enjoying a water park.\r \r Going down the actual resort you have to take a hydraulic ride for safety of the guests. Don't worry as this is just the mundane part of the location before heading down to their attractions. There are a few marshals to attend to guests as there aren't a lot of rides that need assistance.\r \r There was also a dining area with some hammocks which was a plus for those who have a penchant for that. My only gripe is the inflated prices of the snacks. You could opt to make this an afternoon visit so you have already taken your lunch to avoid the pain of spending a pretty penny for overpriced food."

		"Review": "This attraction is on Samal island, not in Davao City. I have asked TA to correct the map location and listing.\r \r I hired a tricycle for an expensive P1500 day tour that included Maxima.\r \r Make sure you go to 'Maxima resort' and not the 'house' as we initially did.\r \r There is a funicular to take one down almost to sea level. General admission is P300 but my driver was free.\r \r The snorkelling off the pier was terrific. Many varieties of fish, including some medium sized pelagics. I especially enjoyed the Harlequin fish.\r \r Staff were pleasant: I had a satisfactory light meal at the restaurant.\r \r On weekdays the forest canopy walk is not open.\r \r The good snorkelling alone made this a worthwhile visit.\r \r It is not suitable for the disabled as there are steps in a few places, including down to the pier."

Unfriendly and lazy staff. One guy was laying on the table and watching basketball on tv. Security guard was playing clash of clans on his cellphone. We stayed only for 2 hours and then we left.\r \r We were planning to do diving there but changed our mind last minute because of the unprofessional attitude of the guy who wanted to take us for diving. \r \r Definitely not worth it. If you decide to go there forget about diving if you want to come back alive cause the guy definitely does not have a proper licence or diving training."

Toilets are unclean and no resort staff who could assist you during night time, only security guard on duty will entertain your queries. The room has insects and unclean with lizard's poop, windows are \"native lanay blinds\" only. We don't have blanket on our room and we even have to complain and ask for blankets. To our surprise, they would charge us for blankets. Only one shower with fresh water to use and it is located in open area. So girls are struggling to bathe because guests, staff and men working to repair the slide are just around and free to watch while we take a shower. As for breakfast, we extremely got annoyed before we finally got our order. All our orders are not available. This is the worst experience i ever had checking in a resort. Nothing extravagant and all waste of money!"

Don't worry as the ride is very slow. The resort does not have swimming pool nor a beach front. It has its own pier though and the water is so deep that swimming would require life vest.\r This is ideal for young hearts who are not afraid to try their longest slide ever dropping to the sea. If you want to try the canopy walk, it is required that you are wearing dry clothes, so do the canopy walk first before diving to the sea."

They have their giant slide and their water blob that I think designed for adults. Anyways. The view of the waterfront is stunning. And they have a strict policy in using life jackets where it is a must while their is a waiver that needs to be signed if you do not wanted to use a life jacket. I commend their efforts for guest safety.\r \r Their food is amazing. It is worth your pay. However. The service crew at the canteen is not that friendly. The only staff that is friendly are those assigned in their facilities (like their lifeguards, staff at the johnnys ride and their water slide, staff at the picture booth and staff at the canopy walk). \r \r Their canopy walk is also the best. I hope the facility is open on weekday basis as well to cater visitors on these days. Also, I hope they could offer one more canopy walk facility to cater the huge number of guest who wanted to walk the wooden bridge.\r \r Overall, it is a great place to chill yourself away from the busy life in the city."

The slide is made of plastic material that they have to pour water every time you slide to ease up the friction. My elbow touched a not so wet part of the slide that it really hurt me so bad."

When we arrived in Samal Island, we drove to Maxima Aquafun. Oh before you finally reach it, there will be someone who will ask you to pay an environmental fee (P20 each if I remember it right). The place is a beauty. Be prepared to walk down through a plight of steep stairs because the place is like a cliff. We ordered food there (won't surely dent your pockets, food in Davao is generally affordable) and played games in the table we rented. After that, we went to try their major attraction, which is the water slide. We put our life vest, which is very helpful for non-swimmers like me. There is someone whom you can ask to take your picture while in the slide and trust me, he can take a damn good picture of you screaming your lungs out. Hehe. The slide leads you to the dark blue beach which is about 100 meters deep (according to the staff) but your life vest will take you on the surface in no time. After that, you can swim back again to the shore and take another plunge!"

Yesterday, Jan. 25, 2014 we went there with my sister and brother in law who came all the way to manila to have a vacation here in Davao. If you are looking for something fun to do this is a perfect place for you. Maxima resort is located in samal island. It's a resort on the hill side of the mountain with giant slides leading to the sea. Take note they don't have a shoreline. To get there from Davao City, you can bring your own car and ride a barge. It would take approximately 15mins. to get to the island. From the wharf you will need to travel another 20 to 30 mins. to get to the resort. There's still an on-going road construction but all in all it's passable. The road leading to the main entrance is not cemented so it would be best to bring a four wheel drive especially if it's raining. For an entrance fee of 250 pesos, you can use their facilities such as the two giant slides, kayak, diving platform and canopy walk. We have not tried the kayak and canopy walk though. You can also swim and just snorkle to see their live corals and giant clams. Better to bring your own gears for hygenic purposes. Also, I am not sure if you can rent these in the resort. You can also do scuba diving at a cheap price of 800 pesos. You may also rent the banana boat at a minimal fee. Picnic table is free of charge. You can choose any vacant table. I believe you can bring your own food. We ordered our food from the restaurant. Service is slow thus better order like one to two hours ahead your scheduled meal time. Food is okay and reasonably priced. Flies and cats are everywhere so don't leave your food on the table without any cover or unattended. \r \r I recommend this place for kids and young adults who wants to have some fun. Not recommended for senior citizen or older people as you will need to climb up and down the steep stairs. Lower your expectations, this not a first class resort. Recommended for day tour only."

But during our lunch meal we ordered the fastest food that we taught could be cooked because we were so excited to try the slide. But our expectation were wrong, because we still waited for an hour just for our food..I waited for an hour just for a fried Milk Fish. And the one serving the food and managing it has a bad attitude. But i did not mind it because I want to enjoy my stay.... So after eating our lunch we tried the giant slide because for me it was my first time... And I tried it not just once but many times. But the problem is when i reach the water, small jelly fish are waiting for me. And those small kind of jelly fish are really itchy and the watcher said it was their season it is called dikya.

Their food was ok and reasonable place. And since samal island boat are with limited time you'll be required to stay for a night and the cottage we've stayed was very nice although the comfort rooms are located above the cottages areas but no complained about it..

		"Review": "My friends and I had a good time here at Maxima Aqua Fun Resort. For only P200 entrance fee, you have the whole day to swim, snorkel, dive and slide. \r \r Our main purpose coming here is really to try their giant tarpaulin slide. And when we saw it, it was enormous! At first I had second thoughts about trying the slide, but I said to myself it's now or never. We were asked not to place our arms on either side but rather put it infront of us. Unfortunately, due to my nervousness, I mistakenly placed both my arms on both sides halfway down the slide, thus, my elbows got scratched and bruised. \r \r The slide was really long. Shouting while sliding helps a lot. Just the thought of dropping down the ocean (120 feet deep) was scary. However, with our life vest on and everything was so fast, you will immediately surface in the water. Apart from that, the lifeguard was there in the sea too assisting us so we feel safe.\r \r There is also a diving board where you can jump down. I have not tried it but I will when I come back someday. Overall, It was worth it!"

		"Review": "My husband and I really had a good time in this place.For a very affordable price of 200 pesos entrance fee including unlimited amenities was all worth it. We can do snorkeling whole day,dive and slide.To those people who will expect a very nice rooms,fancy bathroom facilities you can go to a 5 star hotel in Manila and to those people expect that this place a white beach then you go to Boracay. This place is in the middle of nowhere and people who loves natures, adventure,peace and serenity this place suits you."

		"Review": "If you're looking for a more adventurous getaway, try Maxima in Samal Island. While they do not have a beach, they do have a lot of activities in store for everybody. My favorite would have to be the diving boards. While the slides are fun, the diving boards take a lot (and i do mean A LOT) of courage from those willing to risk it. It's only less than an hour away from Davao City, and their rates are reasonable. Plus the rest room are very clean!\r \r So the next time you visit Samal, don't forget to drop by Maxima!"

Yeah, i was a little bit scared but that's what adventure is all about, right? Then, the giant slide OMG. I'm scared of drowning because I don't know how to swim. But I really wanted to try it. So I tried it too. I was a little nervous but what the hell. I just did it haha. I was screaming on the 1st half of the slide but it was too long I just waited for myself to drop in the ocean. Felt good afterwards. Too bad we weren't able to do snorkeling because we arrived quite late already. Fun fun fun. Try it!"
