Wir sind über 100 km Umweg dafür gefahren - nur um zu erfahren, dass es leider die ganze Woche geschlossen und ohne Wasser ist. Dass wir dann das Eintrittsgeld zurück bekommen ist nicht wirklich zufriedenstellend!
Nettes Plätzchen zum spazieren. Der Spa Bereich sieht auch schön aus, wir waren leider nicht drin. Den vollen hätte ich aber nicht bezahlen wollen.
Es war nichts besonderes und es ist sehr klein, an sich war es okay
We were greeted by a lovely staff member who guided us through the process of arriving and finding our way around. My massage was one of the best I’ve ever experienced in my lifetime, and my husband was able to walk around the terraces whilst I did that. We both met up to have a swim and experience all the different temperature pools. There was enough shade and towel hooks to accommodate everyone and it was one of our favourite experiences in New Zealand!

Netter, kleiner Spaziergang
Netter kleiner Spaziergang, der durch das Infoblatt von der Rezeption durchaus interessant ist. Guter Einstieg um danach in die hot pools zu gehen.
