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.
Welcome to Hanmer Springs Thermal Pools & Spa.
Relaxing rock pools, soothing sulphur pools, cascading pools, and an array of water jets and bubbles - at a range of temperatures.
For the kids (and kids at heart!) we have four hydroslides, including New Zealand’s longest waterslide, Conical Thrill, activity pools and a lazy river.
We're excited to introduce the debut of Violet Vortex and Waiau Winder. These innovative slides have taken the place of our cherished older beige and green slides. Our latest slides feature cutting-edge LED lighting and projection technology, enhancing the thrill factor and crafting a unique adventure!
Entry price includes all outdoor pools and slides.
For those who wish for a taste of luxury - try the private pools, sauna, steam rooms, and the luxurious spa. It's all here in an atmosphere that cannot help but reset the balance in life…

Great place and awesome facilities
Thank you for the awesome review! We’re glad you enjoyed the facilities and had a great time. Hope to see you back again soon!
It's nice to relax in an adults only pool area(s). Staff are prompt and consistent in letting the youngsters know that they can't be in the adult pools. Family friendly environment.
Thank you for your wonderful review! We’re so glad you enjoyed relaxing in the adults-only pool areas 😌 Our team works hard to keep those spaces calm and comfortable, so it’s great to hear their efforts made a difference. We’re also happy you felt the family-friendly atmosphere throughout the park. We look forward to welcoming you back for another relaxing visit!

I took 2 US family members to the pool one morning. We were all marvelously relaxed after this, enjoying a hot shower afterwards. A very special way to spend a morning.
