Visited taupo for a few days and went here twice! My partner and I were staying at De Brett’s but they only had one pool The pools here at Wairakei Terraces are so good. The heat differences are perfect and I slept like a dream after visiting. We went Sunday evening which was quite busy and Monday evening which was less so. Lockers are available but you can take your belongings down to poolside and it’s all pretty safe. The night sky is also stunning on a clear night
Karawe tu wharetoa... Fantastic, freedom camped taupo.. Wairakei thermal with the bookme discount was fantastic.. My 2 day stay became 5 nights in the area to soak up the thermal pools.. Def going back, sooner than later... The tribe got it going on.. Biggest bummer wairakei cafe. Hey guys Yr large coffee is not a large cup.. If and when u change to a large cup size everywhere else, then I'll happily buy.. Otherwise fantastic
A wonderful experience whereby all aches, pains and heaviness are gently removed. I felt physically, emotionally and psychologically rested, despite not realising how much I needed the restoration. I would go as regularly and often as possible. Definitely a "must visit" experience
So beautiful
