Splash-worthy water parks
Looking to make a splash on your next vacation? We’ve rounded up some of our favourite resorts where free and unlimited access to the water park is included so you can whoosh down the free fall slide, tame the monster roller coaster (if you dare!) or bliss out on the lazy river as many times as you like.
A world of splash-worthy thrills
Adrenaline junkies will meet their match in Punta Cana at Splash Water World. Opened just last year in Punta Cana, this was RIU Hotels & Resorts’ first ever resort water park; full of thrilling slides and water attractions that can be accessed for free by five surrounding RIU properties—a favourite being Riu Bambu which is situated on the stunning Arena Gorda Beach. Guests can whoosh down adrenaline pumping slides such as a four-lane high speed slide, or one that propels a person towards a pool, or even a free-falling slide. Children can make a splash in a dedicated children’s area complete with water toys.
When you’re not zooming down water slides: The RiuLand kids club offers exciting activities, a playground a dedicated kids pool. Or, the whole family can try out some water sports together such as windsurfing, kayaking and snorkelling.
Kidcation tested and approved
Our Kidcationers put our family resorts to the test to make sure they have the best family-friendly accommodations and activities, the best ice cream and the best pools and water parks. Recently Kidcationer Aziz from Mississauga, Ontario gave Sandos Caracol Eco Resort his seal of approval—with its recently expanded water park being one of his favourite features. Boasting a total of 29 slides, this exciting water park kept Aziz pretty busy on his Kidcation.
