A cake, some balloons, and… a giant water slide in the backyard. That's the birthday party kids talk about for the rest of the summer. To make it easy, here are our 10 most-booked water slide rentals for 2026 — each delivered, set up, sanitized and fully insured, from just $199/day.

1. Tidal Tower 27 — the big thrill

Our tallest slide at 27 feet, with a steep drop into a deep plunge pool. The showstopper for older kids and teens. See the Tidal Tower 27.

2. Tropical Paradise 18

A turquoise-and-lime tropical slide with a toucan on top and a big front splash pool — a bright, cheerful favorite. Check availability.

3. Fire Dragon 18

A fierce red-and-charcoal dragon tower with a sculpted head and a steep tail chute — pure adventure. See the Fire Dragon.

4. Great White Shark 18

Riders drop through the shark's open jaws into a foamy splash pool. An ocean-party classic. Rent the Shark.

5. Mermaid Lagoon 18

Shimmering teal, purple and coral with a sculpted mermaid tail — the dream slide for mermaid birthdays. See the Mermaid Lagoon.

6. T-Rex Dino 18

A giant roaring dinosaur head tops this prehistoric thriller. A jaw-dropping hit for dino fans. Rent the T-Rex.

A galleon-shaped slide with sails, a skull flag and a walk-the-plank chute. Ahoy! See the Pirate Ship.

8. Volcano Blast 18

An erupting volcano with twin racing lanes and a bubbling splash pool — double the thrills. Rent the Volcano.

9. Unicorn Dreamland Bouncer

A white-and-pastel unicorn castle — the most photogenic bouncer around, perfect for little dreamers. See the Unicorn.
