Excellent facilities. Service was great. We loved the private spa with the open roof as it was raining. The hot spring pool is very well maintained and it was very quiet for a Saturday lunch soak. Overall would recommend to anyone looking for a hot spring spa and soak.
Nice food, friendly staff
It was okay
Unmissable and unforgettable. We had an awesome time with our guide Alex, who was friendly and knowledgeable and really made the experience what it was.
Had an amazing time. Teenagers were off their phones and laughing and actually interacting with one another. Will absolutely be back!! (Big kids had a blast too)
We took along a group of thirteen year old boys and they had a blast. Would definitely do it again!
Highly recommended, fun yet safety conscious tour suitable for all ages. Fantastic experience, for my first ever glow worm kayaking evening tour. Out guides Jono and Emile, ran things like clockwork, oozing with professionalism. Clearly both are highly experienced kayakers. There was no waiting around, everything was so well organised that our evening flowed calmly and smoothly without a hiccup. The wine and nibbles set the scene right from the start. I am an experienced kayaker so didn’t need any additional assistance. We had a few in our group who had never kayaked. They were given all the guidance they needed to relax and thoroughly enjoy the misty kayak to and from the glow worm cave. And man, that cave blew my mind!!! Thanks for a fantastic evening and a definite highlight of my North Island holiday.
I didn't want it to finish. Very short paddling time so wasn't tiring at all. Beautiful calm lake
It was an amazing experience, staff were fantastic. Kids had the best time and are already planning next time.
All my son wanted to do for his 11th birthday was this. They all had so much fun. They are already planning the next trip. Great staff, were very supportive. Thanks so much.
My three teenage children and I had a great time on the track. Racing them was a thrill we all enjoyed.
My 4 grandchildren aged 18 to nine had a blast and not a screen in sight!
The team at Skydive Tauranga were incredible from start to finish! Kitsch was my tandem jumper and Gui was my extra photographer/videographer jumper. As this was my first jump, I was understandably nervous, but the guys played a big part is keeping me cool. They were friendly, funny, professional and yet also laid back. Despite them having done tens of thousands of jumps, I feel like they were still invested in my excitement and anticipation of it being my first jump. I must also mention that in the past, I have been scared of flying. I can honestly say I had zero fear going up in the plane. It's a bit gnarly when the door is opened and you get into position to jump, but I felt safe and cared about the entire time. Not bad for people you've just met. A true testament to the guys. After the jump, my entire video/photo package was edited beautifully and sent to me within about half an hour. It was an incredibly impressive turn around period. For any new jumpers, I HIGHLY recommend paying the extra money and getting the most complete "Inside Out" package. You will not regret it. You will never get your first jump back, so do it. Not to mention the views are breathtakingly beautiful. The high quality of the pictures and video was impressive also; I might even have to get one of my favourite shots blown up onto a canvas or something. Gui and Kitsch, my Cessna pilot, and other team members who heled me upon arrival, THANK YOU SO MUCH for being part of one of the most exciting things I've ever done. Aside from the jump itself, one thing I will always remember about my jump was the smiles on Gui and Kitsch's faces. You guys do this all the time, but for myself and so many others, it was just the first time, and so thank you for not being nonchalant and for being buzzed and excited with me. I would go back to Skydive Tauranga EVERY SINGLE WEEK if I could. Fantastic team, fantastic experience. Annie G July 2022
Lovely and peaceful on a Monday morning. Clean and comfortable. No spa jets just soft warm mineral water. Ahhh
I had a great experience at the spa yesterday during school holiday. The staff were friendly and helpful. The facility was clean and modern, I heard it was renovated just this year. Love all the little throughtful touch on the facility such as the hair dryer, enclosed shower/ changing room; also the tog dryer is such fantastic idea to avoid customer carrying the wet togs for the rest of the trip (would be good to know how often this tog dryer is being cleaned and a Daily Hygiene Log posted next to it may be helpful?). The pool is clean and tidy. I bought my mom the signiture pool entry and she had a relaxing quiet time at the desinated pool area. The water at some of the wooden tub was not as clean as she expected, so i would deduct one star. We love the ambience of the site - nicely maintained bush and the footbath area was a nice touch. The open deck area is nicely design and clean, great for a brief rest with the family member. I will visit this gain.
Tim Taylor took us to the magical kingdom of glow worms and shared with us his knowledge of the Mclaren Falls Park. We even saw some deer. The group was small and the evening was breathtakingly beautiful. Tim made some nice photos which he shared with us a few days later in high resolution. He is such a great guy full of adventure himself and is ready to share his knowledge of kayaking. Highly recommended to anyone in love with nature and adventure.
Lovely food, lovely service, lovely atmosphere. This place is a regular for us. Awesome restaurant
Food was presented and cooked perfectly. Staff were very helpful and on hand at all times. Well recommended. Will definitely be back again.
Great food, great place to eat, love the atmosphere. I come from working in hospitality and understand big groups are important and bringing in more money that night. But unfortunately they were all seated after me but got all their drinks before me, settling them was more important which again I understand, my boss would tell me to focus on bigger groups more but yes that let's down smaller tables and we waited about 20 minutes just for two soft drinks.. Due to them taking all drink orders then bringing them their drinks.. Other than that, enjoyed my food and the experience was great, loved the mini junior stone grill. We will definitely be back. Just perhaps when larger groups are booked in, just one extra waiter on, can ensure no customers get a bit left behind.. Thanks :)
Stopped in for a quick lunch. Hubby ordered the Karaage Chicken Burger and said was great and the chicken was real tender. I ordered the pork belly bites and potato pave bites, they were both delicious! (especially the pork belly, had so much flavour) Lots on the menu, so we will be back to try them all. Woman that served us was very friendly.
The moment we arrived, we were welcomed and seated. Ash was a great host, amazing service. Food came out quick and it was delicious. Thank you so much for your great service, we will definitely be back again. Highly recommend. A++
Both waitresses were nice and helpful. Stonegrill steak was impressive!! Calamari was tasty and tender but small portion. A big portion of porkbelly and $1 wings on Wed were incredible..
Amazing stuff
Really enjoyed the full day boat trip, great views around the Bay of Plenty, saw a couple of penguins, some flying fish, lots of seabirds and several pods of amazing dolphins swimming right up close to the boat.
We had a great day out on the ocean! The staff were fantastic and ensured an unforgettable experience. We saw hundreds of dolphins and spent almost 2 hours at an island, where we had lunch and enjoyed some swimming. I would definately recommend this to anyone!
It was awesome day, we saw heap dolphins also hammerhead shark, penguins and nearly midday cruise stopped near small island for relax as I swam pretty close with seals, so awesome day but just one thing we wouldn’t know on cruise got nothing for us, the ticket full price excld everything! So please list detail for customer must bring your own lunch due to we would like to buy some meal but on cruise got frozen meal but was expired!!! So we have one day trip and have no food for whole day, so I might say it was my fault not prepared food but Bookme must revise your advertise include all detail about that. Anyway all great :)
When I saw people had said it was the best day ever I never believed that it would be exactly that. Beautiful weather. Great staff. And to beat all of that, whales? Didn’t see much for the first 3 hours and then it all came at once! Highly recommended!?
My partner and I booked this cruise and weren’t disappointed, we had the best day and enjoyed the trip and seeing all the dolphins and wildlife. The crew went the whole extra mile to make us feel welcome. Thanks again for having us
It was really fantastic trip for us and we’re pretty lucky to spot the dolphins twice! The crew were really friendly and very knowledgeable. We really enjoyed our day. It is a highly recommended
Great food and customer service, but we both ended up with an upset stomach later—maybe from the tiger prawns?? The Ribeye stone grill steak was amazing! It was so juicy, and we enjoyed adjusting the doneness myself. The staff were all wonderful and attentive as well.
We enjoyed our cruise. The timing was just enough, we saw ample dolphins. The cruise itself was smooth sailing, our ‘captain’ was well knowledged, friendly and accomodating. Got to take our own food and drink. Would highly recommend, perfect for all ages and we would definitely consider doing it again Only con would be the toilet room is quite small
