We were on a school trip, and the kids loved it. Warm enough to not get cold, but not too warm either. Lots of fun activities for kids, and saunas and spa pools are wonderful, a little bit expensive but well worth it. 5 stars from me
Baywave TECT Aquatic & Leisure Centre in Tauranga offers a fantastic range of facilities, making it a great spot for both fitness enthusiasts and families. The centre boasts an impressive variety of pools, including a large 25m lap pool, a wave pool with surf-like conditions, and a relaxing spa pool, catering to swimmers of all levels. The leisure pool is particularly popular with kids, featuring water play areas and slides. Additionally, there's a fully equipped gym and a cafe, which makes it convenient for those looking to relax or fuel up after their workout.nnFor those new to the area, parking can be a bit tricky during peak hours, but there’s a spacious car park located right outside the centre. It's also worth noting that the facility is easily accessible by public transport, with bus stops nearby. However, for people with mobility issues, the access is generally good, as the centre provides disability-friendly entrances and facilities, including lifts and accessible parking spaces.nnA few tips to make your visit smoother: if you're planning to go during busy times, especially weekends or school holidays, arrive early to secure a good parking spot and avoid the crowds. Don’t forget to bring your own towel, as they charge for rentals. Finally, if you're planning to swim in the lap pool, it can get crowded, so consider checking out less busy hours during weekdays. Overall, Baywave offers a fantastic, family-friendly experience with plenty of amenities to suit all ages.
Great family fun and well supervised. Super facilities and, for me, great experience for disabled folk. Water wheelchair and hoists into Spa pool. Fabulous A great place to book your child's birthday part. Pirates ship and great hydro slide and a pool with waves. Fun, fun, and lots of fun.
Took a group of kids over a few weeks ago. They had an event on so had closed the bombing area but neglected to inform us at the counter when we paid and offered no discount for not having full use of all activities for a start the bombing area being a big part of the attraction for going to baywave for our kids. Secondly, loads of kids were going down the waterslide in groups the rule is one at a time, the pool attendant had her back to the slide for an extended amount of time talking to her work colleagues stationed at a birthday party who were also not paying attention to their job, she happened to turn around when a couple of the kids in my group went down together, shouted at them and threatened to take their bands off them if they did it again which was extremely unfair as she’d missed half a dozen groups of kids going down together before that. I informed her that this was the case and suggested that if she was going to monitor the situation she ought to do so consistently. The reason I am posting this publicly is because I emailed Baywave on the day with my complaint and they have not bothered to respond.
nBaywave TECH Aquatic Leisure is an absolute gem! From the moment I walked in, the staff blew me away with their warmth and professionalism.
