Bonds in a molecule of Water are covalent bonds because the hydrogen and oxygen molecules share electrons, that’s why water is a covalent compound.

Because when hydrogen atoms combine with the oxygen atom, they do so by sharing their outer shell electrons to gain a full outer shell.

Hope this helps. Have a good day!
