Guests staying at RIU Guanacaste or RIU Palace Costa Rica can now enjoy unlimited complimentary access to an on-site water park, with the opening of RIU’s first ever ‘Splash Water World’ in Costa Rica.

The brand new park -- located at the entrance of the RIU Costa Rica complex -- features five water slides, including a four-lane Aquaracer slide and two tube slides, as well as a mini splash pad for kids.

Both resorts are located on Matapalo Beach. 

RIU Guanacaste offers sprawling pools and a host of non-motorized water sports like sailing and kayaking. 

Vacationers seeking an enhanced level of service may choose to stay at RIU Palace Costa Rica, where they can enjoy a spa treatment or roll the dice at the on-site casino. 

Sunwing is an exclusive vacation provider of RIU Hotels & Resorts and offers vacation packages to Costa Rica from Toronto, Montreal, Calgary and Edmonton.
