What you can expect
Experience the perfect wellness escape on this 60-minute geothermal restorative journey. Begin by exploring the mineral-rich pools, where the natural heat instantly softens your muscles and invites you to slow down. Inspired by the healing traditions of Ngāti Whakaue, every element, from the geothermal waters to the gentle rise of steam, has been crafted to help you reconnect. Take your time as you move between the pools, settling into the calm glow of the evening.
Continue your journey in the silky geothermal mud therapy areas, letting the minerals nourish your skin. With 90 minutes to unwind, this experience becomes a comforting blend of culture, nature, and mindful relaxation. As you finish up and wrap yourself in your towel and robe, you’ll step back into the night feeling lighter and beautifully restored.
