Hot summer days come with plenty to do in Omaha, Nebraska. No less than three hotels in the city have their own water parks, where you can thrill down fast-moving slides, splash through water features or just kick back and relax.
The Ramada Plaza Omaha Hotel and Convention Center has its own tropical-themed indoor water park. The 60,000-square-foot Coco Key Water Resort has three 40-foot water slides for slipping along on a raft or with your body. Ride a tube down the Adventure River, where coconuts splash you along the way, or catch some rays on the outdoor tanning deck. Little swimmers can enjoy age-appropriate activity pools with splash buckets, lily pads and squirting features. At the end of the day, you'll find comfortable suites with amenities that include a fitness room and free wireless Internet. The hotel is just off Interstate 80 at 72nd Street.
The Holiday Inn Downtown Omaha has spacious guest rooms with king beds, refrigerators and high-definition TVs. The hotel's 10,000-square-foot water park has a slide that whisks you outdoors and twirls you around before bringing you back to the indoor pool. A water playground for children has places to climb, splash and squirt before sliding back down. Water features also include a leisure swimming pool and double-sized hot tub. Work out at the fitness center or catch up on office work at the hotel business center. The hotel is downtown, just a block from the TD Ameritrade baseball park.
Slide down the tongue of a great green frog into the swimming pool at Best Western Plus Kelly Inn, just south of downtown. The pool area has two slides, a fountain, floating lily pads and rafts. You'll also find a hot tub, fitness center and business-oriented amenities that include a work center and meeting room. Stay in a suite with a king bed and whirlpool hot tub for two right in the room, or enjoy a traditional room with two queens or one king bed.
While it doesn't have its own hotel, Fun Plex lies just 1 mile from the Relax Inn Motel and Suites and the Satellite Motel. Fun Plex has water attractions that include a five-story water slide, lazy river, wave pool and splash features. You'll also find plenty to do on land, including miniature golf and a selection of rides that include a roller coaster, Ferris wheel, train and carousel. Both hotels feature classic guest rooms with one or multiple beds as well as Wi-Fi and TV. Relax Inn has special suites with a whirlpool tub inside the room.
