Regnerisch guter BeUch

Leider hat es bei meinem Besuch geregnet dachte ich mir, aber es war überhaupt nicht störend sondern eher angenehm das von oben das Regenwasser kam. Schade das es keinen Sitz oder Relaxbereich gibt. Ansonsten sehr schön warme Pools und tolle Atmosphäre.

Schönes Thermalbad

Schön angelegtes Thermalbad mit vier verschiedenen Becken unterschiedlicher Temperatur. Man kann sehen, wie das heiße Wasser die kleinen Kaskaden heruntersprudelt und in den Badebecken ankommt. Umgeben von Bäumen, fallen auch schon einige Blätter und kleine Insekten ins Wasser. Was uns nicht ganz so gut gefallen hat: Schließfächer sind nicht kostenlos (5 NZD) und die Dusche war eiskalt. Auf Nachfrage hieß es, die Gaslieferung würde noch ausstehen, mit der das Wasser geheizt wird, es sei also eine Ausnahme.

Sehr angenehme Entspannung

Die Pool sind unterschiedlich warm und man kann darin sehr gut entspannen. Leider gibt es danach nur eine kalte Außen Dusche und keine Möglichkeit, sich ordentlich zu duschen und zu waschen.

Gut zum Aufwärmen an kühlen Tagen

Schöne Anlage und das Thermalwasser tut der Haut gut. Abschließbares Fach für die Wertsachen kostet 5 N$ extra. Rucksack passt grade so hinein. Nettes Cafè am Eingang.
