Always a Great Time
I really love this place, especially on an overcast day. The terraced hot pools are really pleasant and rejuvenating. They also have a great gift shop. Any time I am in the area I make sure to come here!

Always a great relax
Love going to the terraces, only wish the steps were marked. Toe stubbing is a part of the experience at the terraces. Staff were lovely.

Such a beautiful experience!
We loved our visit to the hot pools. The walk to explore was beautiful and really interesting; so good to see all the native trees, hot spring up close, and the Maori village. The actual soak in the springs is pure magic; all three of us felt the healing power of the springs and the relaxation of the warm water. Treat yourself and go for a soak and exploratory walk!
