TL;DR
A good water-park resort typically has 4-5 slides for 2 pools, a separate kids' area with tubes, clean (non-green) pool water, and available sunbeds even in high season.
Simple checklist for rating a resort's water park: dedicated territory (even if access is via a nearby gas station), 4 slides for 2 pools, a beach bar, and a spa center — that's enough for a top score.
By dinner time the grill meat is being prepared, slides are running, pool water isn't green (though it's noticeably chlorinated), and sunbeds are still available even without an early rush.
The water park has 5 tube slides plus 3 regular ones — tubes are always available, no queues. The main pool is a comfortable 1.4m deep. There are gazebo areas with jacuzzis (about 1m deep) that kids tend to take over. A detox bar serves fruit smoothies made with water or milk.
