Been 3 times now after snowboarding/ mountain biking trips. Nice place to relax. Helpful staff. Heated changing room. Has a bar and cafe tho havnt been yet. If I were to make one small complaint on really cold nights it could have been a little warmer but this may not be possible with the solar thermal setup. All in all still deserves 5 Stars. I love the place and will b back.
A beautiful space to revitalize and unwind. The whole complex is stunning and well looked after. The changing rooms were lovely too..heated and clean. Highly recommended!
A satisfying experience.
This is a must to visit if you are in Methven. The pools are clean and the facilities are beautiful. There are the two areas - definitely want to come back to visit the adults only side of the complex🥰

Relaxing and enjoyable in lovely surroundings
We've visited Opuke a couple of times in the past, using the "Tranquility" side with a brief visit to "Discovery". This time, we just booked for Discovery and had a lovely time with interesting whirlpool, relaxing deep pool (when it wasn't being used for jumping) and just hanging out admiring the gardens and mountains. Finished off with an enjoyable lunch. Absolutely worth it.
