Vasa Hotel Surabaya
A five-star spa stay with a kitchen in some rooms
About this hotel
Vasa Hotel Surabaya combines a full spa and fitness center with an outdoor pool, giving a family a real place to recover after a day spent at Ciputra Waterpark's slide tower and wave pool under the East Java sun. Some rooms include a kitchen, unusual at this star level, which suits a longer stay where cooking a simple meal beats getting everyone dressed again for dinner out. The property runs an airport shuttle and a business center, giving it a slightly corporate feel that tends to translate into efficient, dependable service throughout the stay. Free parking makes a self-driven visit straightforward, and the hotel is listed as kid-friendly and accessible, so families are genuinely accommodated rather than an afterthought here at all.

Our take
This suits a family that wants a proper spa alongside the flexibility of an in-room kitchen in some categories, without going fully apartment-style for the entire stay itself, start to finish, every single day. It is one of the stronger all-round five-star picks on this entire list, though breakfast is charged separately, which is worth budgeting for carefully at booking time.
- ✓Request a room with a kitchen at booking if cooking even one meal during the stay appeals to you.
- ✓Use the spa on the evening after a full Ciputra Waterpark day to help the whole family properly recover.
- ✓Confirm the airport shuttle schedule ahead of time if arriving with young kids and heavy luggage in tow.
Why we love it
- Full spa for genuine post-park recovery
- Kitchen available in some room categories
- Free parking for a self-driven trip
- Airport shuttle simplifies arrival and departure
Why guests love itWe stayed here for five nights and used the spa twice, both times after long, tiring afternoons at the park itself. Having a kitchen in our room meant we could put together a quick breakfast on the days we wanted an earlier start than the hotel restaurant allowed us. Free parking made driving to the park every single day simple and genuinely predictable.
