Best day for the family

We absolutely loved our visit to Tekapo springs - was a fun day for the whole family! Nice hot pools for the adults to relax in, but not too hot that the kids couldn't join us, floating rings for the kids to use - and the water play pool was fun for both adults and children alike! One of my favourite features was the family changing rooms which made it so much easier for you to get changed together, especially when you have little ones! The grounds were pristine, and a nice cafe to enjoy food and drink when you got pekish! I woul.100% rate going there again!

Tekapo springs hot pools

The heating of the pools was amazing Areas around all the pools were neat and tidy and very safe to walk on Change rooms/ showers and toilets were very nice and clean.added bonus was the shower gel/ shampoo and conditioners The shade over the pills were nice Was disappointed that the other 2 pools didn’t have jets or water features/spray Felt a bit boring in them Enjoyed the pool with the water features /sprsy Also the views from the hot pools were very very minimal. Not impressed Pics on the website not sooooo accurate Pools needed to be more elevated to get the views promised on the website

Bit disappointed

Only 4 medium size pools and can barely see the lake. Shame that the view is not optimised Vs parking.
