Best 50th - Great way to spend my 50th birthday, a massage with my wife side by side. Bath robes and towels supplied from spa package. Then a walk around the spring pools and there were so many choices. We drifted to the hotter ones, 42 degrees was the best. The sulphur ones were nice with less smell than the Hells Gate one in Rotorua.

Excellent facilities - The Thermal pools are very family friendly. Very professional lifeguards and friendly staff. I particularly liked that there was body wash available in the changing room showers so you can feel super fresh after a relaxing time in the pools. Usually taking the kids to the pool feels like chaos but we all had a relaxing time. Plenty of fun to be had on the water slides where the water is also warm. Making our booking was very easy and very quick entry and access to the pools. Big thanks to Ollie who was very helpful and made us all feel very welcoming. A must do activity when in Hamner or a great day out activity in winter from Christchurch as it's not too long a drive.

Relaxation - First time to Hanmer Springs. I had the most wonderful time at the hot pools, trying out the different pools. Bought a whole day pass so that I could come back in the early evening.

Thanks to Tripadvisor! - Family-friendly and loads of fun for kids. Booking through Tripadvisor was so easy and so much cheaper. Great Discount! On arrival, we were able to skip the queue and go right in by using the barcode emailed to us. Thanks Tripadvisor for a great experience.

Best relaxation - Always love the thermal pools. We also loved the slides. Lines moved super quick and friendly staff. Always fun day with kids. We loved the kids area as well as the 18plus pools and normal heated pools always feel relaxed

Disappointed - Positive feedback-clean pools and surrounding area plus plenty of lifeguards so felt safe at all times. Negative feedback - showers cold and intense pressure to the point of uncomfortable, cold air in hair dryer. I didn't expect a cold shower in thermal spa despite waiting ages for it to warm up. Paid 80 Dollars for a couple a bit steep tbh.

Nice but overpriced - I think it’s a bit overrated and overpriced. If you spend 2 hours there it’s more than enough. $40 per adult is quite steep and you have to pay $4 for a locker (2hours) too. A better system would be if a ticket would cost you $20 with a maximum of 2 hours. When you’re traveling around and need to make choices I would give it a miss.
