The Mayan Adventure Indoor Waterpark is located in the Holiday Inn in Elmhurst, less than 10 miles from downtown Chicago. The Mayan Adventure Waterpark has over 24,000 square feet of water fun in a tropically set environment that has a constant temperature of 82 degrees. Besides the typical splash pools and kids areas, there's a tube slide where you can slide down a chute on an inner tube and a body slide with a plunge pool at the end.
