Here's how you would refer to the parks within Disney World:
* Theme Parks: You would call them theme parks or specifically Disney theme parks to distinguish them from other parks. Examples: Magic Kingdom, Epcot, Hollywood Studios, Animal Kingdom.
* Water Parks: You would call them water parks. Examples: Blizzard Beach, Typhoon Lagoon.
So, while Disney World is a resort complex, the individual parks within it are still theme parks and water parks.
