The aquapark

A real aquapark, inside the hotel grounds.

Not a paddling pool with one slide. Hotel Kotva has its own water park built into the garden — three interconnected pools threaded with 22 waterslides, from gentle kids' chutes to a full-size bowl that spins you before it drops you.

Why families book here instead of a hotel next to an aquapark

Because there is no gate, no ticket queue and no day pass. The slides start where the sunbeds end. Children go up, come down, and are back at your lounger in the time it takes you to finish a page.

You never pack a bag for a day out, never pay per person at the entrance, and never lose an afternoon to getting there and back. The aquapark is simply part of the hotel — open to you every day of your stay.

  • Free, unlimited access for every hotel guest
  • Slides for adults, teenagers and toddlers
  • Bowl, tube, open-flume and multi-lane racer slides
  • Shallow zones and a pirate-ship splash pool
  • Sunbeds, umbrellas and a pool bar beside the water
  • Steps from every room — no transfer, no tickets

Down the flume
The slide tower
The bowl
The landing pool

Filmed at Hotel Kotva in August 2026 — the aquapark exactly as guests find it.

Four pools

One pool for every kind of holiday.

The water is spread across four separate pools, so the family that wants to race down slides and the one that wants to swim a quiet length never have to share the same corner.

Aquapark

The slide pool

The landing pool the big slides empty into — the loudest, happiest water on the property, ringed with sunbeds so you can watch without standing up.

Lagoon

The lagoon pool

A long free-form pool winding between rock formations, palm trees and shaded ledges, with shallow steps and plenty of edge to hold on to.

Swimming

The half-Olympic pool

25 m by 12.5 m of proper lane swimming, away from the slides. Early mornings here are the quietest part of the day.

Children

The pirate-ship pool

A shallow children's pool built around a wooden pirate ship, with its own small slides and water to stand up in at any point.

For the children

Kids in the water. Parents on the sunbed.

Everything a child wants is inside the hotel gates, which means everything a parent wants — a line of sight, a cold drink and a chair that stays warm — is too.

A pirate ship in the pool

The children's pool is built around a full wooden pirate ship with its own slides and water jets. It is shallow throughout, and it is the reason most families come back.

Slides that grow with them

Small chutes for the ones who have just learned to swim, tube and bowl slides for the ones who have decided they are fearless. Nobody ages out of this aquapark.

A playground on dry land

A fenced playground in the garden with swings, climbing frames and soft ground, for the hour after lunch when everyone needs to be out of the water.

Everything already paid for

Slides, pools, sunbeds, meals, snacks and soft drinks are all in the All Inclusive price. No child at this hotel hears “not today, that costs extra”.

All Inclusive

One price, from the first lunch to the last breakfast.

All Inclusive at Hotel Kotva starts with lunch on the day you arrive and ends with breakfast on the day you leave. In between: a buffet restaurant, a bistro, a pool bar and a lobby bar, and no bill at any of them.

  • Buffet breakfast, lunch and dinner
  • Snacks between meals
  • Local alcoholic and soft drinks
  • Pool bar right beside the aquapark
  • Lobby bar and Bistro “Black Pearl”
  • Coffee and soft drinks through the day
  • Sunbeds and umbrellas at the pools
  • Animation programme for children and adults

Included, all day

Rooms & suites

471 rooms and apartments, two minutes from the slides.

Two connected buildings, four floors each, with lifts throughout — so the walk from your balcony to the water is short even with a toddler and an armful of towels.

Double Room

  • 18 m²

One-Bedroom Suite

  • Separate bedroom

A separate bedroom and a living room with sofa beds — the room families with older children ask for. Booked by phone or as a request; the reception confirms availability.

  • Best value

The compact option, with the same aquapark, the same All Inclusive and the same beach five minutes away, for less.

The same in every room

Every room is air-conditioned, has its own bathroom, a balcony and free Wi-Fi, and is serviced daily. Cots for babies are available on request — mention it in the booking form and reception will have it waiting.

Only on this site

Book direct. Pay less.

This is Hotel Kotva's own reservation page. There is no agency between you and the hotel, which is why the price here is the one to beat.

01

Best price guarantee. Find the same room and dates cheaper on any booking site and we match it.

02

Free aquapark access for every guest, every day of the stay — never a per-person ticket.

03

Priority on early check-in as soon as a room is ready, so the holiday starts at the pool, not in the lobby.

Same hotel, same room, fewer people taking a cut.

“The aquapark is really great — the children didn't want to go to the beach any more, even though it is only 250 m away. And although you get the room at 15:00, you get the wristband at 10:30 and can go straight to the pools, so you don't lose the day.”
