Compare Bounce House Combos: Dolphin Diver vs Tropical Paradise vs JAWS vs The Web
A bounce-and-slide combo gives kids a bounce area and a slide in one inflatable, which is why it is the most popular pick for mixed-age parties. We rent four: Dolphin Diver, Tropical Paradise, JAWS and The Web, each $399 a day with delivery, setup, takedown and cleaning included. They differ in size, theme and whether they can run wet. Here is how to compare bounce house combos and choose. See also our Orange County bounce house rentals hub.
Quick Answer: Which Combo Should You Rent?
- Tightest yard or superhero fans: The Web (17′ × 17′, wet or dry).
- Shark theme, wet or dry: JAWS (27′ × 15′ × 16′).
- Ocean theme with a tunnel entrance, dry only: Dolphin Diver.
- Tropical theme with two slide lanes, dry: Tropical Paradise.
Bounce House Combo Comparison Table: Size, Price and Wet or Dry
| Combo | Size | Price | Wet or dry |
|---|---|---|---|
| The Web | 17′ × 17′ | $399 | Wet or dry (detachable splash pool) |
| JAWS | 27′ × 15′ × 16′ | $399 | Dry or wet (splash mode) |
| Dolphin Diver | 29′ × 15′ × 16′ | $399 | Dry only |
| Tropical Paradise | 29′ × 15′ × 16′ | $399 | Dry combo |
Combo Comparison: Theme, Features and Space Needed
| Combo | Theme and standout features | Space to reserve |
|---|---|---|
| The Web | Superhero, red and blue. Enclosed bounce area and attached slide. | About 22′ × 22′ |
| JAWS | Shark. Mesh siding and an easy-access entrance. | About 32′ × 20′ |
| Dolphin Diver | Dolphins and ocean waves. Tunnel entrance, roomy bounce area and tall slide. | About 34′ × 20′ |
| Tropical Paradise | Palm trees and tropical colors. Tunnel entrance, mesh siding and two slide lanes. | About 34′ × 20′ |
All four are recommended for ages 3 and up, require adult supervision at all times, and need one 110V outlet within about 50 feet (or a generator). The JAWS unit page lists a typical setup time of about 20 to 30 minutes.
Which Combo Is Best for a Small or Medium Yard?
The Web is the clear winner for tighter spaces. At 17′ × 17′ it needs far less room than the three 27-to-29-foot combos. If you have space for a larger unit, JAWS is the shortest of the big three at 27 feet. Use the size and space guide to measure. If your yard is smaller still, see the small yard bounce house comparison.
Which Combo Can You Use Wet?
The Web (with its detachable splash pool) and JAWS can run wet or dry. Dolphin Diver and Tropical Paradise are dry combos. If a hot summer afternoon is the goal and you want a bounce area plus a splash, pick The Web or JAWS. Read how to choose a wet or dry combo for more.
Which Combo Fits Which Theme?
- Superhero party: The Web.
- Shark or “danger zone” party: JAWS.
- Ocean, dolphin or mermaid party: Dolphin Diver.
- Tropical or luau party: Tropical Paradise.

How Do Combos Compare to a Plain Bounce House?
A combo costs $100 more than a $299 bounce-only unit but adds a slide and, in some cases, a tunnel entrance and extra activities. Combos suit parties with mixed ages and larger groups. For preschool parties or tight spaces, a bounce-only unit may be enough; see our age-by-age guide. For an all-units view, check the comparison chart. Prefer a slide-only unit? See the water slide comparison.
