Nestled on the secluded shores of Lake Rotoiti, this totally unique NZ experience is open daily, 8am-10pm. Come and soak up the beauty of Mother Nature and soothing warm qualities of the natural Manupirua hot springs. After heating up in the pools, cool down by hopping into the lake for a quick dip, or plunge off the water slide. Grab a drink or a bite to eat at our kiosk cafe. We are a licensed café and have a variety of beer and wine available. Picnics are welcome as we have shaded picnic areas, tables and two barbecues. If you’re up for it there is also a walk that leads up behind the pools for a spectacular view of the lake below. Come for a while or for the whole day – you won’t be disappointed!

Wow. What a view!! Set in a slice of paradise. Great set of pools that with different temperature. A nice place to relax with the family. It’s a best kept secret. Wish we could drive there though.

Went on a cruise on board the Pure Cruises catamaran in Lake Rotoiti and it was a lovely afternoon. The lake was beautifully peaceful and at one corner is a hidden gem – the Manupirua hot springs, accessible only by boat.
