We had an incredible stay at the Showboat Hotel in Atlantic City on Chol Hamoed hosted by YeshivaMidwinter.com.

The recently renovated Showboat Hotel, located right on the Atlantic City Boardwalk, is very family friendly. In addition to the indoor waterpark, the world’s largest arcade center, mini golf, roller skating rink and Speed Go Karting, all located inside the hotel, The Showboat offers many room options that work well for families, with many of them overlooking the beautiful ocean.

Ari Dicker of YeshivaMidwinter.com, arranged for discounted hotel rooms and to rent the waterpark on Chol Hamoed offering separate swimming hours. The Island Waterpark located within the Showboat Hotel is a nice sized brand-new water park but not huge and overwhelming. The three tubular slides extend from inside the waterpark to outside the building and then back in again. There are also two tall and fast carpet slides that exit and enter the park as well. A Lazy River circles a large sprinkler park and medium size slides for the younger children. The FlowRider surfing simulator is an all time favorite. There’s a children’s area and pool to enjoy. All ages really enjoyed the waterpark. There were so many fun slides and elements without being too overwhelming.

After showering and changing in the comfort of our room we headed back down to enjoy the activities and attractions on site. We headed over to the Lucky Snake Arcade, known as the world’s largest indoor arcades center, and enjoyed the huge selection of arcade games. The Speedway is an incredible indoor race car track located near the arcades.  We had lots of fun racing each other on the super quick race cars. We also enjoyed the mini golf and small roller rink. It was amazing how there were so many activities and attractions within the hotel so we didn’t have to leave the hotel except for when we just walked out back to enjoy the boardwalk and beach.

YeshivaMidwinter.com arranges for great affordable group rates at popular hotels and resorts for midwinter vacation, Chol Hamoed and Chanukah. In addition to the Showboat Hotel they often have group specials at the popular Kalahari Resort and Camelback Resort in the Poconos, PA. Midwinter Getaways is a great way to get away during vacation time without breaking the bank.

For this year’s yeshiva midwinter break YeshivaMidwinter will be offering a group rate on the renovated rooms along with a men’s event Sunday night (so the bachurim who have yeshiva Monday morning can partake), followed by a women’s event Monday morning. Again, deep discounts on the arcade and other activities will be offered.
