When you’re planning a holiday in the Caribbean or on Mexico’s most spectacular beaches, you’re bound to picture yourself relaxing under a palm tree, sipping a refreshing cocktail by the sea and switching off from the stress of everyday life. It sounds idyllic, but at RIU Hotels & Resorts we believe that your perfect holiday can also include a dose of adrenaline, laughter and unlimited fun.
What is RIU’s Splash Water World concept?
The Splash Water World concept is an exclusive service for guests at RIU hotels, offering completely free and unlimited access to modern water parks in top destinations like Mexico, the Dominican Republic, Spain and Cape Verde. We’ve designed this world of aquatic fun to completely revolutionise the way you travel with family or friends.
Is access to Splash Water World free and unlimited?
Normally, when you visit a holiday destination and want to spend the day at a water park, the routine is the same: you have to get up early, buy expensive tickets, queue for ages at the ticket office, pay extra for lockers and lunch, and spend a large chunk of your holiday budget in a single day.
At RIU, we’ve completely done away with that system. If you’re staying at any of our hotels that form part of a resort with a water park, access to the Splash Water World facilities is completely free and unlimited. You can go in the morning, come back in the afternoon or go down your favourite slides as many times as you like without paying a penny more. It’s our way of guaranteeing you the most fun possible with no nasty surprises on your bill.
What are the water slides like at RIU’s Splash Water World?
Types of high-speed water slides at RIU’s Splash Water World
Within the complex, you’ll find a wide variety of attractions designed for all ages and levels of bravery. You can whizz down free-fall slides, experience thrilling speeds on the hydrodynamic racing tracks or enjoy exhilarating spins on the enclosed tube slides.
Si te consideras una persona valiente y amante de las emociones fuertes, aquí tienes un repaso de lo que te vas a encontrar:
steep drop, you’ll feel the thrill of a controlled free fall straight into the landing pool. Only suitable for people who aren’t afraid of heights!
for speed and find out who’s the fastest in the group. Laughter and friendly competition are guaranteed.
¿Sabías que este tobogán está diseñado para los verdaderos adictos a la velocidad? Se trata de una atracción con una pendiente pronunciada que te hará sentir el vértigo de una caída libre controlada directo hacia la piscina de frenado. ¡Solo apto para los que no temen a las alturas!
Tobogán Aquaracer: carreras de velocidad en grupo
Este tobogán cuenta con varios carriles paralelos. La idea es lanzarse al mismo tiempo en esterillas diseñadas para la velocidad y descubrir quién es el más rápido de tu familia o grupo de amigos. Las risas y los piques sanos están más que garantizados.
Relaxation areas and a poolside bar at no extra cost
If you’d rather be the group’s official photographer while the others hurtle down the slides at top speed, there are spacious areas equipped with sun loungers and parasols where you can relax, read your favourite book, or simply enjoy the tropical climate.
What’s more, so you don’t have to interrupt the fun or head back to the main hotel building, each Splash Water World site includes a bar offering free soft drinks and water to keep you hydrated all day long without having to leave the play area.
