Heavenly relaxation. - Wonderful place to relax after a busy day sightseeing and the children could play safely . The place was clean and had family changing room. The gift shop had lots of lovely items as well as being able to purchase swimsuits if you forgot yours! Previously have done the private pool looking across the lake which was wonderful, recommend that if you are a couple and want a nice peaceful relaxing hot pool

Bathing fun - It was very pleasant there. The children could let off steam in the Great Pool and warm up in the hot pools. It would have been good if there had been hair dryers in the family area. On request we could use the hairdryer in the other area. Staff were very friendly.

Mindful Moments Retreat - We had a wonderful 2 days on the Mindful moments retreat in September, being well looked after by Helene. from enjoying the pools to being provided with wonderful food, having a yoga session, and a walk through the redwoods, talk on mind and gut connection all on the first day. The second morning a soak in the pools to start the day, then an amazing indulgent therapy, then meditation, and after lunch a lovely walk around the lakeside, and to finish the afternoon with sound bathing. A marvellous time out retreat

Disappointing experience - I wouldn't recommend. There was a code brown that occurred before we arrived in the bigger family pool. Staff asked to wait an additional 30-40mins for it to be cleaned only to be told it wasn't going to open. No refund offered or apology. Waste of time and money. The facilities could use an upgrade, they are dated. We found out afterwards that the town public pools were a lot cheaper and have been upgrade with more features. I wouldn't waste money on taking the kids to this one.

Not a good "Kiwi" experience - I was prepared to pay the $80 family entry fee until viewing the family pool. There is no atmosphere. No plants. Indoor. Slightly dirty. It looked sad. The other option was $320 for 4 of us. We had issues trying to understand the employees on the front desk. No disrespect, they tried. This certainly lacked any type of Kiwi vibe and I consider it a tourist trap. Try the Secret Spot instead.
