The Water Park Hotel Guide 
A list by Tomas Mazowski.
This guide was last updated in May 2026. Hey! My kids love water slides and one of the best family vacations that we've ever had was that one time that we stayed in a hotel that had it's own water park. Nowadays, when we travel, I always try to find a hotel that has something fun to do for everyone. To save some time, I've put together this list of hotels and resorts in Australia that have a water park on site. I hope you will like it!
