Polynesian Spa
Rotorua's famous lakefront complex of tiered hot mineral pools on the edge of Lake Rotorua.
Why go
Slide into naturally heated mineral pools right on the lake edge as steam drifts off the water.
A Rotorua institution since 1878, Polynesian Spa sits right on the shore of Lake Rotorua with tiered rock pools fed by two natural springs — the acidic Priest Spring, said to ease aches, and the alkaline Rachel Spring, prized for softening skin. Soak at different temperatures while looking out over the steaming lake, with the option of private pools, a lake-edge deck, or a full spa treatment. It's just 50 m from the Hinemoa St freedom camp, making it an effortless evening ritual.
