Hu Eraclea Mare
Hu Eraclea Mare is a brand new resort opening in May 2027 at Eraclea Mare, in the Venice area of Veneto, Italy. Its big draw is a nine-hectare water park, the largest built in an Italian holiday village. You get lagoons and an indoor pool alongside Olympic and semi-Olympic swimming pools.
The park has 3 waterslides that suit families. Two of its 6 pools are made for toddlers, so little ones get their own mini-sized thrills. A 40,000 square metre solarium gives you plenty of room to dry off between swims. Pool sunloungers are chargeable.
The beach is right on the park, with direct access to Blue Flag sand where you can hire a pedalo. The park sits between that beach and a nature reserve, which has 10 km of cycle paths and hiking trails for when you want some quiet.
Eating out is easy, with 30 food and drink outlets serving Italian and Venetian food. After dark, a 1,500-seat open-air theatre stages shows and live music for all ages. Venice is an easy day trip away, so you can pair beach days with the city.
