Welcome to Maris Grand Waterpark Resort, a fresh-faced family favourite new for Summer 2025 on the sunny Protaras–Pernera coastline. Fully renovated with contemporary décor, this 4-star resort mixes the buzz of an on-site waterpark and splash park with the ease of All Inclusive Plus as standard. Spend days racing down slides, cooling off in the lagoon-style pool or watching the little ones make new friends at the kids’ club, then wind down in comfy, modern rooms designed for couples and families who want fun-filled Cyprus sunshine without the stress.

Family days don’t get much easier than at Maris Grand Waterpark Resort. Picture colourful water slides, a dedicated splash park for smaller swimmers, and a big central pool lined with sunbeds and parasols. Inside, everything feels bright and modern after a full renovation for 2025, from the airy lobby bar to the buffet restaurant with kids’ stations and the cosy rooms with balconies and handy family-friendly touches. For families seeking Cyprus’s beach-fringed charm with plenty to keep children happy, Maris Grand Waterpark Resort delivers the perfect balance. It’s around 2 hours by coach from Larnaca (LCA) and sits between Protaras and Pernera, with local bars and restaurants about 500m away and the main resort strip just over a kilometre.

Map & location


Protaras, Cyprus (Larnaca Airport), Cyprus

Set between Protaras and Pernera on Cyprus’s sun-drenched east coast, Maris Grand Waterpark Resort puts you within easy reach of both chilled beach days and lively evenings. Protaras is known for its silky sands, emerald shallows and laid-back family vibe, with coastal paths linking a string of coves and bays.

From the hotel it’s an easy stroll to the nearest restaurants and bars, while the main Protaras strip and beach are roughly a 10–15 minute walk or short taxi ride away. Ayia Napa’s famous nightlife and waterpark are also within day-trip distance for older families wanting even more action.

  • restaurants and bars 500m
  • Protaras resort centre 1km
  • beach 1.2km
  • Approx. transfer time from airport 2 Hours (Larnaca – LCA)

Facilities

Pool & outdoors


The heart of the resort is its outdoor freshwater pool, surrounded by sunbeds and parasols where you can lounge while the kids splash. Pool towels are available with a refundable deposit, so that’s one less thing to pack.

The big draw is the aqua park, included for hotel guests and featuring twisting slides for older children and teens. Opening is typically 10:00–17:00 and may depend on occupancy. For safety, age, height and weight rules apply, and guests generally need to be over 6 years old and at least 120cm tall for the larger slides.

Smaller swimmers get their own splash park – think water guns, cannons, sprinklers, waterfalls and water sheets – open most days during the main season.

The nearest sandy beach is roughly 1.2km away, ideal for a change of scenery with gently shelving water and classic Cypriot turquoise tones.

Spa, sports & wellness


While the focus here is firmly on water fun and family time, you’ll also find:

• Frequent daytime activities during the main season (01 May–31 Oct), including small team games and water-based activities.
• Evening entertainment such as bingo, karaoke, quizzes, in-house shows, mini-disco and live music on selected nights (with a shorter programme into early November).

Practical touches include a 24-hour reception, currency exchange, luggage storage and equipment hire like pushchairs and wheelchairs (local charges apply). The hotel is also listed as a Certified Sustainable Hotel, meaning steps are being taken to reduce its environmental footprint, from energy-saving measures to reduced waste.

Facilities and programme details may vary by season and hotel occupancy.

Food & drink

With All Inclusive Plus as standard, dining is refreshingly straightforward.

The bright Main Restaurant serves buffet-style breakfast, lunch and dinner, with a mix of international favourites, Cypriot-inspired dishes and a dedicated kids’ buffet so younger guests can help themselves.

Once per week (with reservation) you can switch things up at the Italian à la carte restaurant, where pizzas, pastas and Mediterranean classics are served in a more intimate setting.

For drinks and in-between bites you’re covered by three bars:
• Main Bar – lobby bar open approximately 15:00–23:00, ideal for pre- and post-dinner drinks (smart-casual; beachwear discouraged).
• Pool Bar – serving drinks and snacks poolside from around 10:00–21:00.
• Splash Bar – closer to the waterpark, typically open 10:00–17:00 for daytime refreshments.

A smart dress code may apply in some venues, and opening hours or inclusion of premium brands can vary with season and board basis. For a quick refresher on what All Inclusive often covers, see what All Inclusive typically includes.
