Loved the Hot Springs, quite expensive so if you want to make it last two days after 4pm ask for their return tomorrow pass. More

Really great thermal pools, small and clean with great facilities. I liked these thermal pools more than the more famous Hanmer Springs Thermal Pools. Very lovely and the most amazing scenery to watch whilst floating in these lovely heated pools. More

Three large hot pools of varying temperature. Overlooking the lake. very clean - a fairly new complex. Very close to Lake Tekapo Holiday Park and Motel. Has a great rink for roller blading in summer and ice-skating in winter. More

I've reviewed this attraction before and all credit to the management, they DID act on several of my comments.
