The pools are famous for the soothing waters and the stunning alpine setting that is framed by magnificent trees and gardens. A must do experience.
Hanmer springs is always a fantastic day for everyone. Young and old alike cant fail to find something to make them happy here. The kids enjoyed the kids play area, the teens enjoyed the slides and we enjoyed some time in the adults only pools 😀 plus the cafe has a great selection at reasonable prices.
Great place for all family. We enjoyed the soak for about 2 hours. The different temperatures were good to test out.
Thanks for the great review Colleen! We hope to see you back for another relaxing soak soon!
We detoured through to Hanmer just for the Hot Springs. It was well worth the detour. Got our own private spa which we enjoyed immensely.
Thanks for taking the time to leave a review! We're so glad to hear your detour to Hanmer was worth it, there's nothing quite like relaxing in a private spa. Great choice! We hope to welcome you back again soon for another soak. 😊
Great experience, loved the slides and pools. Just expected 39-42°C to be more hotter.. It wasn't hot enough for me to get out of pool and be warm for a while. Maybe cascades where hotter but at the moment they were closed...
We’re glad to hear that you enjoyed your experience at the Pools! Unfortunately, our Sulphur pools, which are kept at 42 degrees, are currently under maintenance. We hope that by the time you visit next, they’ll be up and running, and you’ll be able to enjoy them. Thank you for the great 5 star review Deimante.
Hanmer Springs gave us a beautiful relaxing experience in the rock pools and hot springs along with some great fun on the water slides!
Thanks for the great review Rachel! Hope to see you back for another relaxing visit.
