When Mum and Dad have had their fill of wine tasting and gourmet excursions, kids can enjoy themselves at the new heated water park at Crowne Plaza Hunter Valley Resort.
Now open to guests of the hotel, the new Water Splash Park was designed and built by White Water Australia and is over two storeys high, complete with an assortment of slides, flutes, showers, water cannons and jets designed to entertain the whole family.
The Crowne Plaza Hunter Valley - part of the IHG Group - offers the most comprehensive collection of kids facilities and activities in the region with the water park adding to a mini-train, carousel, a converted tug boat, the Water Dragons kids club, pony rides and the new Hunter Valley Kids Cottage.
“The Hunter Valley has perhaps been seen more as a destination for adults wanting to go to wineries, play golf or attend conferences, but we've transformed the Crowne Plaza Hunter Valley into a resort for both discerning adults and children,” said hotel owner Dr Jerry Schwartz.
“The missing ingredient in the resort's inventory was a water park, and I'm pleased to say this has really added something substantial to the Hunter Valley's tourism attractions.
“Importantly, the water is heated through our environmentally-friendly Cogen plant that also heats the resort's main pool. The addition of heated water will make it attractive for families visiting during much of the year.”
Hotel General Manger Mark Winterton said: “This is a time when Australians are exploring their own backyard, so upgrading the hotel's resort facilities is very well-timed by Dr Schwartz.
“The Crowne Plaza Hunter Valley is now a o-e stop destination for families, couples and groups of friends. Our resort offers 414 hotel rooms and villas, 18-hole championship golf course, two swimming pools and Ubika Day Spa."
