Pools, slides and how long to stay
The indoor water park features eleven large slides, a wave pool and a surf pool. This makes it suitable both for families with children of different ages and for adults looking to spend several active hours.
Aqua Spray Park is a dedicated area for younger children. Families should also allow time for breaks, changing and a quieter spell. If you plan to stay for just a few hours, you can focus on a handful of pools and selected slides. For a full day, allow enough time for the different areas, meal breaks and the journey back.
The outdoor area varies with the seasons. The beach and outdoor pools may open seasonally, while the indoor facilities can be enjoyed whatever the weather. For a more relaxing visit with saunas or warm-water pools, consider a wellness and thermal spa stay.
Tickets and practical tips
The full-day admission ticket is valid from 7 am to 9 pm (prices as of 1 September 2026); online tickets are available only for future visit dates. Tickets for the same day are sold on site. For guests aged 14 and over, admission to the swimming area also includes access to Sauna World. The prices and opening hours page lists the rates and hours.
Swimwear, a towel and non-slip pool shoes are useful for your visit. If you have health concerns, are pregnant or are unsure about using the wave, surf or heated facilities, take your own physical limits into account and consult a doctor if in doubt.
The resort offers accommodation right next to the water park. For other hotels and holiday apartments in Budapest, browse the accommodation guide by location and type of accommodation. A holiday in Hungary can also take you beyond Budapest to the Danube Bend or Transdanubia.
Combining Aquaworld with Budapest
You can easily plan your time in the capital so that the water park and city sightseeing are separate activities. A day at the water park involves less moving around, while an afternoon visit can work well on a museum day or when the weather is changeable. If you want to combine the water park with sightseeing, you can include the Danube banks, Castle District, Parliament, Great Market Hall and thermal baths in your Budapest trip. This can help you decide whether Aquaworld Resort will be a main destination, a family activity or a rainy-day option.
