Absolute bliss - Views were great and very serene atmosphere - such a beautiful experience coupled with a facial which was excellent (the Timeless facial). The only thing I’d recommend is that those of us who didn’t book a spa treatment weren’t given a short tour which explained what each spa pool was good for e.g. skin, hair, nails etc. so oerhaps there could be additional signs which provided these which seems more practical than providing the short tour for all guests? Changing rooms were clean and tidy too. The facial was also amazing but the only thing I would’ve liked is for them to check the preferred pressure as it was a bit too strong on my arms personally.

Blissful relaxation - Fabulous We went as part of our 20th wedding anniversary weekend in Rotorua. The pools that are part of the spa experience offer all you need from the icy plunge pool to various others all with lovely lake views. After an hour or so in the pools we had a Swedish massage which was incredible and followed up with lunch in the cafe. The ultimate in relaxation

Relaxing evening, much needed. Coming back for sure. Highly recommend - Beautiful experience. Exactly what my friend and I needed to relax and decompress after a busy week. Staff were very friendly and helpful which made it a seamless experience. Will be coming back shortly as the healing and recovery benefits mixed with the beautiful views, and lovely architecture was very relaxing and pleasant to be a part of. The Gelato in the foyer looked delicious too!!

The spa was one of the top highlights of our Rotorua visit. Book it to relax, chat and sleep like a baby afterwards. - We had an incredible memorable experience relaxing in multiple geothermal alkaline and acidic pools at different temperatures overlooking the magnificent lake. It was pouring rain and being in the warm/hot water outdoors with the falling rain was an unforgettable experience. My two sons - 22 and 17 years - absolutely loved it, as did I. We sat, relaxed and chatted. We’ve been to the “Blue Lagoon” in Iceland but this was so intimate and unique we preferred it. Don’t forget to have the ice cream before you leave - it’s yummy especially after you’ve been in the thermal pools. Book the Polynesian Spa. It’s fabulous and you will feel so refreshed, relaxed and sleepy when you come out you’ll just want to curl up and take a nap. It and the Māori Village were the two highlights of our Rotorua visit!

Relaxing end to a busy day. - We booked a visit to the Polynesian Spa as part of a combo with Mitai Māori experience. The spa was beautiful even on a cold Rotorua evening. We didn’t have any treatments, but the pools were very relaxing and reinvigorating. And the heated loungers were so comfortable that I didn’t want to get off.!
