Riu Opens New Water Park in Costa Rica

By: Caribbean Journal Staff - November 28, 2019

Riu Hotels and Resorts has continued its region-wide water park push. 

The company has opened a new “Splash Water World” park in Costa Rica. 

The large-scale aquatic center will be accessible for guests at both the Riu Guanacaste or the Riu Palace Costa Rica, the company said. 

The park includes a total of five different water slides, including a four-lane “Aquaracer” water slide, along with a mini splash pad for younger guests. 

Both resorts are set on Matapalo Beach in Costa Rica. 

Riu has been adding Splash water parks across its properties in the wider Caribbean-Mexico region over the last several years since opening its first Splash park in the Caribbean in 2016.
