Hotels with slides, and enough for DS 12 to do!!!

[yohoohoo]

Looking at August for a week - if the DS age 12 is happy with slides, waterpark and evening stuff for him to do we will be estatic!!!

Look at First Choice Splashworld holidays.
We went to Marina Parc hotel, Arenal d’en Castell in Menorca last August and DS, 11, absolutely loved it. There is a waterpark onsite with a good choice of slides and a lazy river. It was never too crowded with less than a few minutes wait for the slides. The hotel also had three other pools.

The beach was also only a 15 minute walk away and it was beautiful, really picturesque and clean. They had pedlos and water activities and a wonderful little cafe that served good food, drinks and ice cream

We came back from Los Patos Park in Benalmadema a fortnight ago, which has 5 slides. My ds who is 7 was never off them must admit I enjoyed them too!

The evening stuff was probably aimed a bit more for younger kids, there is a kids club but ds never used it. We had a fab holiday, we would even consider going back!

poptart was the Marina Parc slides just for the hotel guests or could any Tom, dick or harry use them? I really want to go back to Menorca with the kids & this hotel sounds good!

The waterpark slides were only for hotel guests (they have a wristband system) and all drinks and food in the waterpark were included in the all inclusive package

Thanks for that! 👍

PoptartPoptart we have a 12 and 13 year old boy & girl. What is the temperature like in August in Menorca is it as hot as Majorca/Algarve. Also is the hotel geared round the younger age group and would our 12 and 13 year old be among the oldest, what were the rooms like I.e. Would they be big enough for us and DC's.

We stayed in Zoraida Park, Roquetas, in Spain. The hotel was really nice and they had pools and slides . The food was lovely too.

Brighteyes- the water park will definitely occupy your 12&13 year olds, it was fab.
The evening entertainment is geared more towards younger children tbh, however there are a few independent bars/restaurants a couple of minutes walk away which had pool tables and some more lively music entertainment.
The room we stayed in slept 4 with twin beds in the bedroom and sofa bed in the main room. It wasn't amazing but perfectly fit for purpose.
The temperature was high 20's but there was a lovely breeze which made the heat bearable.
Don't get me wrong, it wasn't the most amazing holiday I've ever had, but for the price it was really good and we all really enjoyed it and would definitely return.

Also, there were families with all aged kids there, from little ones to late teens.
