None of the "wood composites" are good for a wet area. They are mostly just pressure formed saw dust. They will eventually get moisture in them and swell.
Real wood flooring will stand some water but if you real soak it you can have problems with warping.
My youngest son and his family lived with us a few years ago. I think that they where all half water buffaloes. When any of them showered there was water all over the whole bathroom. The old tile in the bathroom was not water tight. I had to replace the flooring. I found a great product at Home Depot. It is called "Allure". It is a vinyl flooring that is a double layered product that had ! inch tabs with adhesive strip. It over laps like ceiling tile and the adhesive sticks it together. It took less than three hours to do the whole bathroom and hall. I did use a heat gun on the adhesive seams. The instructions did not say to do that but I have found over the years that heating up adhesive makes it bond much better. I left a 1/4 inch cap around the edges and I sealed that with silicone and covered that with a 3/4 quarter round while the silicone was wet.
We love this flooring. It is holding up well and is water tight. I had to work on the commode and I was able to just roll up that part and replace the mounting ring. Wife likes how it cleans and holds its shine. I am going to install it in the kitchen this summer. You can get it in many different colors and patterns. It is tough. It is way better than vinyl sheet flooring. I used a few of the left overs under the washing machine. You can slide a heavy washer on it and it does not mark the flooring.
Here is a video showing a fellow installing it in his kitchen after taking out laminated wood.
