Auszeit im Spa

Wir haben ca 2 Std entspannt im Polynesian Spa in Roterua verbracht (man kann länger bleiben, aber für uns waren 2 Std ausreichend). Man hat Zugang zu ca. 7 Pools, die Temperatur jeweils unterschiedlich, von 38 - 41 Grad. Das war sehr entspannend u. eine schöne Abwechslung zu unseren sonstigen Wanderungen/ Aktivitäten.

Für das was geboten wird, zu teuer!

Das schönste war der Blick auf den See. Ansonsten wirkte alles etwas herunter gekommen, die Umkleiden kalt und ungemütlich (nicht einmal einen Fön gab es), die Pools nicht besonders gut gepflegt. Da habe ich schon schönere Thermalbäder für den halben Preis erlebt, z.B. die Hanmer Spa's

From Polynesian Spa Rotorua - Pavilion Pools

Thank you for your review. The change rooms you entered are underfloor heated and this is switched on as winter approaches. Hairdryers are provided in the deluxe lake spa pools. There is a regular schedule of maintenance undertaken on our site, with pools refurbished constantly. Our pools are all geothermal sulphur-rich and sulphate-laden pools and our complex in the middle of a geothermal zone. Our site is heritage-protected and historic with the first deep pool you saw upon entry built in the late 1800s. The area that is cordoned off in the middle of this adults only area houses the old iconic Priest Springs and pools which no-one bathes in, they are protected.

Relaxing

Eintritt ab 21.30h war super...sehr ruhig, wenige Leute. Die Pools sind schön angeordnet, alle finden einen guten Platz. Blick auf den See auch abends top. Sehr fein zum Abschalten und Entspannen!

Polynesian Spa

Great hot pools, only issue was they closed early than advertised, so only got limited time to enjoy them

From Polynesian Spa Rotorua - Pavilion Pools

Thank you for your review. We advertise that we close at 11pm. This means our doors are locked at 11pm and all patrons should be off site by then as we start emptying and cleaning all our pools at this time. We will be asking guests to leave the pools and make their way to the changing rooms to meet this requirement which is usually around 10:40 to 10:45 pm.

Nice experience

Friendly staff, arrived a bit early and they let us in anyway, access to 1 section of the pools only but probably was enough. About 6 in total. Nice experience, good Changing facilities and lockers ( need to pay for lockers but can use non secure containers for free). Good value for money
