If you’re traveling to Hawaii with children, or if you’re just a kid-at-heart, you’ll want to make sure you stay at one of the Hawaii resorts with water slides. After all, what’s the fun of a pool without a way to swish your way into it?!
Here’s our take on the best water slides in Hawaii, just in time for your next Hawaii Vacation.
Our Favorite Hawaii Resorts With Water Slides
Here at Hawaii Aloha Travel, we’re a team of local pros who know our way around the islands. We also know what makes a great vacation here. We always make personalized recommendations for resorts in Hawaii, whether you want one with water slides, hot tubs, beach access, or world-class spas.
Today, we’re highlighting the best water slides in Hawaii!
1. Grand Wailea, A Waldorf Astoria Resort
My family and I spent a few days at the Grand Wailea Resort last year, and the biggest selling point for us was the enormous and fun family pool. There, you’ll find a lazy river pool, four water slides, a rope swing, and a water elevator at the center of a faux volcano.
The biggest water slide was under repair when we were there, but that didn’t stop us from enjoying the maze of small and large water slides that dot the uber-fun pool.
2. Aulani: A Disney Resort and Spa
The two water slides at Aulani are geared toward two different types of children (or grown-ups). One is long, winding, and moderately paced. The other is closed at the top and super fast! My risk-taker child was all about the fast slide, but my cautious kids loved the slower pace.
Either way, however, you’ll have a blast swishing through the water.
There is also a fantastic lazy river that kids and adults of all ages love.
3. Grand Hyatt Kauai Resort and Spa
If you’ve been looking for a LONG, fun water slide, you’ve found it! The Grand Hyatt Kauai Resort and Spa features a 150-foot water slide that’s sure to keep the keiki (children) entertained for a while! After a few runs, they’ll need a break, and they’ll find it by relaxing in the lazy river.
4. Hyatt Regency Maui Resort and Spa
The real competition for the Grand Hyatt Kauai Resort and Spa comes from, you guessed it, another Hyatt Regency. This time, you’ll find the 150-foot water slide on Maui, where the kids will stay busy swooshing down the slide into the pool below.
Mom and Dad — you should check out this slide, too. It’s just long enough to give you a good ride and make you feel like a kid again!
5. Hilton Waikoloa Village
The Hilton Hawaiian Village boasts three large pool areas, the Kona Pool, the Kohala Pool, and the Ocean Tower Pool.
The Kona Pool is the largest pool, featuring a 175-foot water slide, waterfall, Kona Pool Bar, and Orchid Marketplace.
The Kohala Pool is perfect for families with four interconnected pools with water slides, cabana rentals, and a Pool Bar serving refreshments.
The Ocean Tower pool is for adults only and doesn’t feature any water slides, but we’ll mention it because you may need a break from all that water slide fun!
