If you’re traveling with kids, especially younger ones, there’s no amenity that’s as compelling as a water park. You can finally relax a bit as the kids slide and slide and, well, slide. 

More and more Caribbean resorts are tuned in to this: from Nassau to Anguilla, top resorts are adding full-service water parks to ensure the perfect daytime activity for your family. 

And now you can add another property to this list: the Club Med in Punta Cana. 

The Dominican Republic all-inclusive resorts has announced plans to open a new “splash park” this December, Caribbean Journal has learned. 

The new park will include everything from water slides to water features to “splash zones,” according to the company. 

It’s part of a bigger renovation at the Punta Cana resort, which has also seen the addition of new, larger family-focused accommodations, a new event space and a new-look menu at the property’s Hispaniola restaurant. 

If you can’t wait until December, one Punta Cana resort sets the standard for waterparks: the Lopesan Costa Bavaro, which has an impressive family-friendly offering that includes a large waterpark. We named the Lopesan the number one all-inclusive resort in Punta Cana for 2024. Book Now.
