Was pretty quiet when we arrived. Prepare for a pretty steep hike down to the springs. We had several bits and bobs to take down, and by the time that was done, my calfs wanted to exploded so soaking them in the hot water was a must. There is plenty to do for the young ones. Slides for kids only with a 90kg limit. But overall nice day and there's a little shop to buy ice cream and drinks.
I heard so much about the place but it didn’t make to my expectations. Good fun for a day maybe but to stay as vacation for a few days i might not recommend since the pools are basic and one time visit would suffice. Maybe a picnic area, restaurant, movies in the pool and more variety of pools and slides could spice the place up.nIt wasn’t crowded though and we could relax in the pools school holidays visitsnThe cabins are clean and have small kitchen. Towels provided. Kitchen stuff are good. Has fridge, microwave, dishwasher and hot plate, rice cooker, toaster etc.
Great place to take the family for 3-4 hours at the hot pools and hydra slides. Also good for young children. No cafe down near the pools though so bring your own food and water perhaps. Currently some pools being repaired but most facilities and pools are available. Recommended.
De Bretts Spa Resort is a well landscaped retreat spot located in Central Taupō. The resort offers myriads of activities not only for the residents, but also for the public.Their hot pools can be accessed by the public between 8:30 am and 8:30pm.nnThe entry fee is usually about $24 per adult & $13 for children. Luckily we had a 20% discount on the day we booked our slots.nnThey have two large thermal pools, a water park, child friendly swimming pool, hot tubs and private pools, which are free of cost and can be availed on first come first serve basis.nnThere are plenty number of private pools, which can well accommodate 3-4 people in a single room. Whilst many hot springs permit persons above 18 years of age, De Brett’s resort is one such place that is child and family friendly.nnThus, a must visit place if one is visiting Taupo and wants to have an unforgettable experience with family
We can't believe it's taken us this long to visit, all the fun and the thermal waters. Bonus that there is a kids non thermal but heated pool which the kids can play underwater in and a hot pool beside for the adults to supervise the kids from due to renovations happening we couldn't use all the slides or pools, just some... but there was a great discount due to this, so overall great value and lovely warm clean pools
