If you’re in a desert and you see a tropical island, is it a mirage? If you’re in Chandler, Arizona, it’s no mirage, it’s Makutu’s Island. And what, you may ask, is Makutu’s Island? It’s an indoor play area designed to look like a tropical island with a giant banana tree, snake slide and caves.
The centerpiece of Makutu’s Island is a giant indoor tree filled with tunnels, tubes, mole holes and slides. The awesome snake slide starts on the fourth level and winds more than 35 feet around the outside of the giant tree to its base.
Three other play structures are the Blue Fantasy Tree, Pirate’s Cove and the Palm Slide. They feature tunnels, caves and a zip tracker.
Makutu’s Island characters include
- Makutu, the friendly jaguar cub
