Waterpark holidays

There are tons of waterpark holidays to choose from whether you’re still desperate to get away this year, or you’re holding off so you can book that big family holiday for 2025. Find teen-approved hotels with giant slides and wave pools alongside stays that are perfect for toddlers with shallow splash pools, tipping buckets and pirate ships. 

Looking for great value waterpark holidays? Then go All Inclusive. After all that splashing around the kids are bound to be hungry, and what’s better than knowing you have access to unlimited food and drinks. And even if you don’t choose an All Inclusive stay with a waterpark onsite, there’s still plenty of options that’ll place you close enough so you can fuel up before and after you hit the nearby wet rides. 

Just a short hop from the UK, Spain’s the perfect spot for waterpark holidays with the family.
