When we head to the lake, beach, or the pool with friends or family, we have one goal in mind: we want to stay in the water for as long as humanly possible, to make the most of the day. But if the water is cold, or if we get tired of treading, a floatie always comes in handy. The downside of a personal floatie is that you can, well, float away from the people you’re hanging out with, which is isn’t the vibe when we’re in a summer party mood. So what is the vibe? Climbing onto a huge, 4-person “floating island” with your friends, which is basically like an inflatable pontoon boat that you can lounge on for hours — and for a fraction of the price of a boat.
Before you ask: yes, there are cupholders on the Ozark Trail Summer Oasis 4-Person Inflatable Island (available at Walmart), one for each person aboard to keep a cold drink nearby. It also comes with a sunshade that covers half of the floatie, so those most sensitive to the sun can get the protection they need (but it’s also removable if you prefer your Vitamin D straight up). The inflatable island also comes with an anchor bag, so you can keep yourselves from floating out to the middle of the ocean or lake with no way to get back…though that would make for a fun summer vacation story.
The 4-person inflatable island itself is made out of “Inflata-Shield” material, which is more durable than your average pool floatie. It has a mesh seating area, so you don’t have to sit on searing-hot plastic, and it even has a backrest on one end so you can really get comfortable.
Reviews of the Ozark Trail Summer Oasis 4-Person Inflatable Island are overwhelmingly positive, and it has a 4.8 out of 5 star rating at Walmart.
“It’s absolutely amazing,” shared one reviewer, who said that it was “very sturdy and well built,” and who praised “the cover from the sun along with the water net to keep you cool.” Another reviewer said, “It holds the four of us comfortably…it’s perfect for lounging and relaxing.”
If you’re looking for a way to amp up your summer, then the Ozark Trail Summer Oasis 4-Person Inflatable Island could be what you’re looking for. Spending hours on the water has never looked more fun.
