Really great place to spend the time in, worth the price and if you want to take some products, are also in there. It's a nice process to go in there.nStart with the introduction about the place and the ritual, to thank surrounding the stone. Continue witht the explanation abou the lockers, showers and how to start.nnThere are sauna rooms, and a salt sauna room, coming in and out from it and the ice room where you shower with cold water. Before exiting there, just rinse your feet, walking into the ice water before entering to the pools.nn3 pools are in there and the thermal ones, the sulphur water come directfly from earth so the smell in there can be really strong. The first pool has a temperature of 30 -31 degrees celcius. The second one is from 39 up to 41 celcius, while the third one, is the ice one, with a temperature of 10 - 12 degrees.nnAfter those ones, you can try the 4th pool which is also 30 degrees with herbal scence in the pool.nnContinuing, you will go to the mud chairs where you will have your mud bath, laying there for as much time as you want, before rinsing yourself with the individual shower before entering the steam room.nnThe experience is unique with an amazing view and they provide with plain water any time you want from the water stations. Food and independent drinks can be bought after the experience.
We had booked online in advance the one hour bathing journey and had a wonderful time. Our checkin was smooth with a Māori introduction before entering the five pools which including hot, cold and jets. All were great and very relaxing. What a wonderful place this is and everything felt very new and modern.nnWe visited the cafe afterwards and enjoyed some hot drinks and some cakes.nnAll in all a great start to our day of exploring Rotorua and highly recommended.
A fabulous experience and a must for any wellness oriented guests visiting Rotorua!nWe selected the Journey which is two hours and includes everything hot and cold and even a mud session!!! The town or destination of Rotorua is famous for their hot springs and at Wai Ariki the traditional baths have been incorporated into the water experience. The building is stunning and service is delivered with passion as the staff explain each experience and how the Māori culture has been introduced to the philosophy of the hot springs.nA minor change is to add signs in the saunas so visitors know to splash water on the heating element as often the saunas were not hot enough…..but that is a simple fix!!nEnjoy your experience and make sure you BOOK in advance ….. as there are limited sessions but that is the beauty so each guest has time to relax and enjoy the warm waters or saunas!!nEnjoy
Our group visit to Wai Ariki Hot Springs was a wonderful experience beautifully presented and very well done. The setting and ambience were excellent, with lovely lakeside views and facilities that are mostly under cover, making it a great option all year round, no matter the weather.nnThe entire experience felt calm, relaxing, and thoughtfully designed. The staff were friendly and professional, adding to the sense of care and quality throughout.nnWhile the pricing is on the higher side, it’s understandable given the focus on comfort and the tourist appeal of the location.nnOverall, a very enjoyable and memorable visit highly recommended
For a post Tarawera Trail Run Recovery... this place was THE BEST.nCycling through the Mineral Hot Pools, Sauna, Cold Plunge, Herbal Hot Soak and Hydro Therapy... could have opted for Mud Bath/Experience too - next time!nFacilities are awesome between the well appointed facilities, towels and robes, a bathroom and lockers. Such and a great place to unwind with just yourself, you partner or with the run group. I'll be doing that again.
