Great place to soak in the mineral goodness. Can feel it sinking into your skin! Beautiful atmosphere and lovely staff too. Highly recommended.
Expérience tres agréable. Parfait pour se délasser apres une journée de ballade ou de randonnée.
Such a beautiful spot, really clean and tidy.
We visited Wairakei Terraces - Thermal Hot Pools with my friend on a Saturday evening. Although there were many people there that night it was still a pleasant and extremely relaxing experience.
