Hotels with Water Parks in Tampa, Florida

Hotels with Water Parks in Tampa, Florida
Tampa is home to the fun-filled family water park, Adventure Island, conveniently located across the street from the safari-themed, roller coaster-intense Busch Gardens. If you're planning on visiting Tampa, any hotel near these two parks may be the perfect spot for you. With the right hotel location, you can ride the Tampa Typhoon or the Aruba Tuba from Adventure Island's opening till closing.

Wingate by Wyndham

This charming hotel, only 1 mile from Adventure Island and Busch Gardens, offers free shuttle service anywhere within a 3-mile radius of the property. You don't have to worry about rental car fares if these parks are your Tampa destination. The Wingate offers pretty much everything from an indoor jacuzzi to valet laundry service. Rates can be rather steep, but if you want a hotel that really makes you feel like you're on vacation, this may be the right one for you.

La Quinta Inn & Suites

This picturesque hotel provides a great spot for your vacation getaway. Like the Wingate, the La Quinta is only 1 mile away from Tampa's parks. It's significantly less expensive than the Wingate, but without all the luxury perks (like the free transportation).

Best Western All Suites

With this hotel's beautiful tropical pool and spa, you may not feel the need to head to the water park at all. If you do, the Best Western All Suites is only 1 mile away from your destination. It has a shuttle service, complimentary breakfast and everything else you need for that peaceful vacation (minus the cannon balls in giant pool).

Quality Inn

If you're looking for a hotel that's a bit more economical than the Wingate or La Quinta, try the Quality Inn. It's only 5 miles away from your fun, splash-filled destination at Adventure Island. This hotel is also a completely decent and affordable place the stay, perfect for any cost-conscious family.
