Notes

FAQ's:
Where do we change? Each site has its own small wooden shelter. Alternatively, we provide private showers/toilets for you to use.
Do you hire swimsuits? Yes, we do have bathing suits available, in a range of sizes for hire and purchase.
What temperature are the hot tubs? When we show you your tub we aim to have the water heated to 38 to 40D Celsius. The temperature is easily adjusted by adding more cold water or opening up the air intake on the fire box to get the fire roaring.
Can we play our music? No, although private, the Hot Tubs are close to each other. Waiho is a quiet place so is not suitable for music. If you want to listen to your own music, please bring your earbuds.
Is it easy to get into the hot tub? To enter the tub you climb up two sturdy steps. There is a solid handrail to hold on to as you climb from the top step, over the edge onto the seat inside the tub.
Can I use the tubs in the rain? Waiho is a magical place in the rain and a wonderful Franz Josef rainy day activity. The shelters keep your possessions dry. Our tubs have an optional large umbrella over them keeping most of the direct rain off.
How long should I allow? Each booking is for one (1) hour. Please do arrive 5 minutes before your booking and we will take you to your site. Once time is up your tub will slowly start to drain.
Is Waiho Hot Tubs suitable for families? Yes, it sure is. Its quite a good family activity. We recommend having the water a bit cooler for little people. Waiho Hot Tubs are a quiet place, so if that does not sound like your family then it might not be the right option. NOTE: Bookings after 5pm are for adults only.

Very relaxing experience

My friend and I had a wonderful time at Waiho Hot Tub! We booked the 8pm tub and got a little more extra time in there as we were the last group. The water was amazing and the temperature was very easy to adjust. I like how the tubs are in their little own space surrounded by trees which adds privacy. We added a bath bomb but maybe should have opted for the big bowl of salt instead. Nonetheless it was an amazing time after a days activity in Franz Josef! 10/10 would recommend!

Waiho Hot Tub luxury

What a delightful way to relax. Private, peaceful and easy to access, we loved soaking in the hot tub and soaking in the tranquility. Nestled in the bush, you could be miles from the township, yet you're only a two minute walk away. Can't wait to get back and visit again.

Amazing hot tubs

Clean and hot, you feel like you’re in the middle of the bush, not 50 metres from the road. Friendly & great service
