Are you traveling to Dubai with the little ones and looking for some splashy entertainment at the hotel or nearby? I’m here to provide you with the best family hotels in Dubai with waterparks.
If you are traveling to Dubai with children and looking for a hotel with a waterpark where kids can enjoy the holiday as much as you do, you have probably realized it is not an easy task.
There are not many hotels with water attractions in Dubai like in some other destinations.
Therefore, I did the work for you and prepared a list of the top family hotels in Dubai with a water park or nearby waterparks with access included during your stay.
Short on time? Here are my suggestions for the best hotels in Dubai with waterparks.

When you travel with children, you make sure there is some entertainment for them preferably in the hotel where you stay or nearby.

I based this list of hotels on my own research to help all the parents visiting Dubai with children.
