Turkey is such a fantastic destination, with plenty of all inclusive resorts and self catering villas, but there's one thing people come back for year after year, their waterpark holidays to Turkey. The Turkish coastline is dotted with wonderful seaside resorts and towns, from the quieter villages which are hidden away, to the expansive towns of Bodrum and Antalya. It's a brilliant holiday destination in 2025 & 2026.

Close to the centre of Marmaris and next to the beach, Atlantis Waterpark is a great day out for families, groups and couples. It is a little smaller, but is easily accessible from many of the hotels in Marmaris.

Aqua Fantasy is a very popular waterpark and one of the largest in Turkey. There's also a hotel attached, so you can enjoy the thrills of the rides and slides as many times as you want during your stay.

Orka World is both a hotel and a water park with accommodation options including swim up rooms. The aquapark can be booked separately and has a huge range of slides, attractions. lazy river and a wave pool.

Land Of Legends is more than just a water park, it's a theme park and hotel too, ensuring those who hate to just sit by the pool on holiday, are very well catered for.
Many of the resorts here are self-contained meaning you don't have to step a foot outside the complex to enjoy your holiday if you don't want to, although we always suggest exploring the local area or heading to the beach for a cheeky day away from the pool.
Antalya's coast features popular areas like Belek and Side which offer a whole host of resort style accommodation. Such big complexes mean there's several outdoor pools, plenty to do on-site, and with a number of them, there's also a waterpark on-site too. If your hotel doesn't have a waterpark, fear not, take a trip to popular parks likeAqualand Antalya Dolphinland. Popular waterpark hotels around Antalya include the Delphin Palace and Limak Lara De Luxe Hotel & Resort. Big resorts along Lara Beach also have smaller plash parks which might also be worth looking into, although the Delphin BE Grand Resort has an amazing on-site water park that should not be missed.
If it's Bodrum you're heading to, take a look at popular hotels like La Blanche Island Resort, a beautiful resort set on the Mediterranean coastline just north of the city. And if you don't have any waterslides or splashparks at your hotel, simply jump in a taxi and head to Bodrum Aquapark for a fun day out on the slides and rides.
In Dalaman, in areas like Marmaris, Fethiye and Icmeler have lots of great smaller hotels with outdoor swimming pools, but being smaller, means they don't have any slides. But don't worry as you can always then buy tickets to the various waterparks in the region like Water World Waterpark or Orka World Thema Park in Fethiye or Aqua Dream Water Park in Marmaris, which is Turkiye's largest water park. Hotels like theGreen Nature Resort & Spa and Club Tuana also have their own mini waterparks.
Izmir has two main holiday resort areas, Kusadasi and Ozdere, with a range of accommodation options, ranging from self catering apartments to sprawling all inclusive luxury resorts with a private beach. It's here you'll find popular hotels like Pine Bay Holiday Resort, Atlantique Holiday Club, which has direct access to Tortuga Pirate Island Aqua Park, and Ephesia Holiday Beach Club which sits on the beachfront with a splash park and slides.
