In water, which is a polar molecule, ions care surounded by water molecules depending on the charge of the ion. Positive ions form eletrostatic interactions with the oxygen in water and negative ions, with the hydrogens.
Polar molecules are easily dissolved in water because they form hydrogen bonds, sort of the same principle behind the interactions that happen between ions and water molecules.
