Reviews of Mount Hot Pools
J.
Lovely place to go for a swim with the kids or family. Staff are friendly, photographers on site, great amenities and right smack bang under the mount makes for a beautiful backdrop. Pool temperatures are suited for the seasons.
E.
Had a massage with Fern. Best I've ever had, very relaxing and every minor detail of the experience was taken into consideration. Followed this with a lovely soak. The perfect relaxing holiday spot!
O.
Awesome place to take the kids (of all ages), you could spend the day there easily.
Free parking is a huge bonus, the place looks awesome, has sun beds and lots of shaded areas. - feels a little European.
We will he back!
M.
5-stars for the massage i had! it was so so soooo good & i've forgetten who did it, but it was so amazing. i had a full body massage, which came with full use of the heated pools all day, so it was great to be able to chill before the massage with the swim, and then to relax with a massage and then straight back into the water for a swim.
There was a couple of pools out of use for the afternoon, which should have been told to some of the customers, but other than that, the overall experience was good.
L.
Great family value. It was quiet mid week. It felt like a private pool for us. Definitely a must do when visiting.
e.
One of my favorite places to go in the summer and the winter. A little bit pricey for big family's but definitely a treat. It usually cost me and my family of 4 $49.00 si its definitely a treat. Always clean and tidy, staff are lovely too.
C.
Nice environment but unfortunately the very loud and very tinny music for teenager’s ruined the whole experience. The staff selecting the music need to look at the age of the people in the pools and respond appropriately.
L.
The Mt Hotpools have been recently renovated. It is in a class of its own and a great place to be. The water is seawater heated with thermal water, but it isn't getting mixed. So head underwater is no problem. The massages and treatments are also amazing, for very reasonable money
C.
I remember going here when we were young and free! 😀❤️ And there was a caravan park next door!❤️And as my mum would say we would play till our hearts were content ❤️Yes we love ❤️ going here and having a warm swim and visiting the beach just down the road
B.
Always good for a relaxing dip, prices are ok, it can be busy here at times. The facilities are clean. There is a choice of 3 different temperature pools. Water is salt and good for the skin
D.
Multiple pools to choose from, awesome day out with the family, close to beach, offers parking for customers which is awesome considering how difficult it is to find parking on busy days.
B.
I would go here every day of the year if I was able to. Who needs a pool with these pools nearby....
O how I wished we stayed in NZ.
Definatley a must for any tourist that enjoys a swim in Tauranga!
S.
Lovely clean facilities with pools to facilitate all from Adults, young people, travellers and Families. Love the drinking fountains stationed around so as to avoid dehydration and the tog dryer in changing rooms. Different temp pools ensure everyone is accommodated, and fountain/slide pool is great for the kids! Life guards are friendly and alert : )
m.
Great pools to relax in lovely and warm ! Spa jets are good but too powerful. The slide is fun for children I do remember going there when I was a child as I am now an adult and it is also enjoyable watching and listening to live singers on sunday nights keep it up and them coming . The lifeguards can be helpful at times but also lifeguards don't care much about what togs people wear to the pool. Its anything goes these days. It is over priced but if anyone has a special access disability card then they can get in pool for free
r.
Nice view of the mountain and quite a unique experience with its filtered salt water tempered pools to for a tailor made experience.
B.
Go there if you haven't, its very much worth it, a great family place,or for relaxing ,or for exercises
R.
Good place to be when the weather isn't great for the beach
B.
Nice clean pools. Good way to spend a few hours! Reasonably priced. Very enjoyable.
B.
Stunning location. Great pool temperatures. And I enjoyed an amazing deep tissue massage. Such a great way to ease the pain of a long flight to NZ - great massage and a soak in the hot pools will cure any flight missery. Also a great reward after a hike up the Mountain.
E.
Kids loved it here (4 and 2). It is a little expensive but you can certainly spend quite a bit of time exploring all the pools. Would visit again.
J.
You should let people know that they can't get in after 9:30(on your website). I like to go when people are clearing out and I'm a regular there. I got there at 9:31 and was denied entry. I'm always happy to pay full price just to soak for twenty minutes. I'm usually out of there by 9:50 because by then the staff tells you two to three times to get out. (I understand that the changing room closes at 9:45 I never use them.) I go two to three times a week and pay full price. I wouldn't complain of I wasn't a regular there because I love this place.
T.
So good to have the pools up and running again. The renovations are looking good, the temperature of the pool was hit and relaxing. Look forward to the rest of the upgrade being finished. Love this place especially on a Wednesday for the Gold Card seniors day.
D.
These are the best hot pools in the country. Clean, plenty of pools to choose from, they also have lanes you can walk in, and they have a great selection of aqua classes for only $9.00 pp. General pool entry is $18.00 for an adult.
D.
Great family times. Clean and really enjoyable.
F.
Our kids loved it, even when visiting during daytime.
J.
Very well presented and set up. Loved it. Raewyn gives a lovely massage also.
A.
Awesome facilities! Friendly staff. Clean and tidy. The private pools are a nice way to treat yourself and they even have a speaker for you to connect via Bluetooth to listen to your own music whilst you relax!
H.
Beautiful hot pools. Great way to spend an afternoon with the kids.
I.
Nice and relaxing way to spend part of the day. Looks very modern.
A.
Great pool and a nice environment for the family. Strong jets to soothe the back muscles. Can get busy though but it's a sign of it's success!
B.
Clean, perfect choice of different water temperatures and we'll priced
G.
Awesome. Clean and very enjoyable. Loved it
M.
Awesome hot pools. Just the thing for a cold and rainy afternoon!
A.
Nice and relaxing and the kids loved it as well.
V.
Beautiful pools, the hottest one is great. Just wish the kid's pool was a bit warmer so parents sitting in it watching kids play don't get cold!
K.
Nice place to relax after a long working day or a walk up the Mount. Several basins with different type of hydro-massage, warm salt water.
M.
My partner and me had a massage and used the private pool.. wouldn't use the private pool again far to hot and not very pretty inside. Massage was excellent
W.
Great pools for our students to visit and really good that we could take in our own food
A.
You can relax in salted water pools & spas
D.
Absolutely fantastic massage from Fern. Really knowledgeable and talented. One of the best sports massages I’ve ever had. Lovely person. Couldn’t recommend more.
w.
It's a good place to relax, though it can be crowded most of the times.
S.
Awesome experience for a relaxing evening after a long day of hiking!
C.
Awesome Place to chill and have a good relaxing spa
C.
Just love these hot pools.
B.
A clean cozy facility with hot pools and swimming pools. It was a relaxing experience altogether. They also had water fountains in strategic places. I love how the restrooms are huge, with soap, hair blowers and swimsuit dryers. They also made sure that lifeguards were present. Recommend this place.
L.
Awesome, clean, staff friendly. Will visit again, so relaxing.
R.
Nice if you dont mind the salt water.
Has multiple pools with different temperatures, for all ages of the family to enjoy.
S.
Lost my prescription glasses out of pigeon hole.
Otherwise awesome local facility.
P.
Mount hot pools is a great facility, well maintained, the staff is friendly and helpful. Great fun during winter and even in summer when the weather doesn't allow to go to the beach. The only downside is the limited parking spaces but one can park in a short distance if the parking lot is full so no biggie. The place can be crowded but that's ok.
K.
Clean venue. Great pools, awesome to have a variety of temperatures. Booked a private pool and loved the stereo where we could play our own music
D.
First time here and must say a complete joy to spend a couple of hours with the family.
A.
Nice place to soak especially in the winter.
The bigger wading pool is hotter than the 2 spa tubs in the side but bubbles and Jets are nice. 😁
There are always a lot of people here which must mean it's good, right?
D.
Such a great place. Great toddler pool with plenty to entertain - little fountains, big squirts to stand in and a slide. All 3 children, 8, 5 and 3 years and myself didn't get cold or bored with it. Has a deep warm pool, for laps or play with robust 'tubes' or 'bumper boats' as we called them, and a large, shallower hot pool for relaxing in too. And spas for those over 16. Highly recommend!
H.
Pretty nice hot pool. There are multiple public pool available. The water is sea water so it is salty. Water is not as hot as I wanted, but it was okay. Private pool is also available. Private locker is available for 3$.
E.
This place is lovely and has some brilliant hot pools, the staff here are really nice and helpful. The changing rooms could be improved but do there job fine. The store lockers are quite useful but you don't need the locking ones. I lived the polls thou I thought that the warmer one was much nicer.
K.
One of my must-dos in the Mount area. Salt water hot pools are fantastic, with a variety of pool temperatures and depths for the whole family. Great amenities too.
E.
I’ve only used the private rooms, which are adequate. Sometimes I’ve felt the water isn’t that hot, and the vibe inside is kinda sterile and off putting. Still, we have found it worth the entry price.
M.
Great place to bring the family. Not all of the pools are hot so the kiddies can have fun in a fairly warmish pool. Some hot and very hot options available if you're into those. Plenty of shade as well as water available nearby. You just gotta go!
L.
We were staying at the campground next door which gave us a huge discount for our family of 4, plus the all day pass meant we could go in and out for the day as we wished. Lovely variety of pools, clean facillites, friendly staff. Look forward to going back!
A.
If you haven’t had a massage here with Roberta, you need to book right now.
Honestly. The special 90 minute massage was absolutely heavenly. The body oil was stunning and we will certainly be back.
Book ahead- ask for ROBERTA. Treat yourself to nothing less than 90 minutes. Thank me later.
I cannot wait to come back
V.
Popped in here for a quick soak with my daughters while down from Auckland for the weekend. Lovely staff at the desk, lifeguards that were watching and aware and pools and changing rooms were clean and taken care of. I quite liked the tog spinner machine too to get rid of excess water! 😆 Will come back next time we're down.
J.
90 minute massage was absolutely heaven! Just the solution for a tired body. Thank you Kati.
Highly recommend it. Price was good too.
S.
We got the private hot pools. They are small but suited us as we didn’t want to be outside late in the day. I had a massage afterwards and it was awesome just what I needed. Loved the facial as well with the little freebies that went with it.
K.
It was very pleasantly warm, not too hot. There are a few different pools of varying depths and you can rent out some private pools if you want. It is especially beautiful towards evening, when you can watch the stars dance around the extinct volcano. Good wheelchair access, although getting into the pools themselves would be a bit difficult.
J.
We try to visit the Mount Hot Pools once or twice a month for some exercise in the activity pool before a good soak in the bubbling Spa pool.
Every Wednesday from 12 till 2pm Senior Citizens can get in for just $2 per person which is great value! As long as you are in before 2pm you can stay as long as you like.
H.
It’s okay. Gets crowded and always smell like chlorine afterwards but it’s central and easily accessible location.
W.
Love it, spent tot much time here. Great value for for the price. The water is salt water and they have two large pools and 2 smaller pools. The private pools are a bit too hot for my taste seeing as they have a roof.
C.
We hit this place during school hours and so more or less had it to ourselves. Everything was clean and working, and the pools themselves were most enjoyable. Our kids would have liked a cold pool to jump into but us adults were happy as is.
K.
I went to the Mount Hot Pools on a Saturday night. It was super busy but it was still a lot of fun! I sat in the spa pools which only had adults & had a swim around the bigger pools. Was a really cool vibe, nice & relaxing. Will definitely return in the near future! Nice way to relax and have fun at a fare price ☺$
G.
There for an enquiry, great information so helpful
V.
Perfect on sore muscles after a long trip! One of the highlights of Tauranga and a great way to relax and enjoy the evening. Salt water pools right near some amazing restaurants hosted by the best staff :) couldn't ask for more!!
S.
A real experience for overseas visitors. These hot pools are an amazing way to relax after hiking up mount Maunganui. Good for all ages, with different depth pools with different tempatures. Good thing to do on a wet rainy winters day as the water is warm enough to keep you warm. Well maintained and clean changing rooms. However, it is do busy that there is not alot of space in the changing rooms and we actually had to wait for a space. There is also limited toilets and showers, which if you are desperate is an issue. The general lack of parking around the Mount end of the beach is an issue. We drove around for ages before we found a park within walking distance. Don't let parking put you off,. Mount hot pools is a great experience
J.
Great pools and facilities are very clean and well maintained. Had a live band playing when we visited and pool toys were around for entertainment and a slide for the kids. Hot spa 2 small and 1 large where perfect.
Only a few blemishes with a lack of parking and had heaps of clorine and left my black trunks with a slightly bleached look but i do like how sterile i was afterwards weirdly.
J.
I swim every 2nd day and love it.
A.
Perfect hot pools under the mountain with salt water.
전.
Good place to rest after hiking Mt.Maunganui
J.
Nice out door pools, take slippers as the ground is freezing. No point paying for private pool as they are quite dingy and the public ones are much nicer. Inflatable rings for kids. Hairdryer in ladies toilet which was good. Showers not great. Charge for locker use
G.
Perfect on a winter's day 15c pools 39c clean salt water
P.
Absolutely brilliant. Fantastic staff, amazing facilities and super accessible for the elderly and disabled. They even have a pool loft to help transfer mobility impaired in and out of the water.
R.
Always a great place to go for a soak with difference - hot salt water. Place for all ages. But pricey but worth doing even only once in a while. Lane pool, soak pool with jet spouts, spas and pool for the kids.
L.
Great place to bring the kids. Nice layout of pools. Female showers came equipped with hair dryers, private changing rooms with the changing rooms and free dispensable soap to use in showers!
H.
With good company or not.On a hot day or cold you will feel welcome enough to walk with excitement towards the hot pools. Lifeguards are around so your gear is secure and you as well. Friendly staff and easy to get in and out. Why not?
L.
Best place to have a hot salt soak in the Bay. Family changing rooms are fantastic, even for the elderly who need a bit more time or would like to get dressed with their wife or husband and not have to go into separate rooms. Great pools for all ages!
e.
Really nice set up, lots of chloride in water I think as swimmers got bleached. So not good for skin. But lovely, inexpensive and clean place.
D.
Have not been here for years, will be back
M.
On a cold night its great to enjoy a hot spa.
A.
A must for any visitors to New Zealand or family with kids. A great way to spend an hour or 2 any time of the year. Super clean..go early to miss the crowds. Opens at around 8.30am I think and open till late around 9pm ....kids qater slides for under 8 year olds and cool pool for laps or play and super large hot salt water pool around 39 degrees for relaxing . A must on the bucket list in NZ . Very clean. Showers and hair dryers for free. Towel hire and locker hire onsite .
J.
Not sure if they do have sauna and steam. Nice place.
D.
Nice place with a variety of different pools – large medium and small pools to relax and have a hot soak. Kids area as well so they can splash around without annoying the adults ;). Locals get in cheaper and can take guests, so get a local to take you if you can.
V.
Opens at 6am so able to get an awesome dip in before brekkie and prior to the crowds. Several pools with differing heats and jets, totally relaxing.
S.
I have come here many times over the years. I used to come here as a kid with my grandparents. I was glad to see the place was just like in my memory; well maintained, good changing rooms etc. Will certainly return in the future next time I'm at the Mount!
F.
Clean and tidy plenty pool space for the hoardes. Changing rooms also clean and tidy. Excellent facilities for disabled and babies to us oldie's. Love the tog spinners,taking home next to dry togs just great😁👍
G.
Mount Hot Pools never disappoint. Same as 40 years ago just better.
Love that hot salty water and how it leaves you feeling.
Could go five stars but getting a bit pricey for family groups now. Perhaps we have been spoiled for to many years.
j.
Fun for the kids and adults with the selection of a few pools. The temperature is spot on especially the cooler pool which is still a comfortable 34 to 36 degrees usually
T.
Soooo soothing/.relaxing & very classy & safe with all the enthusiastic Lifeguards>>>
l.
Best pools in New Zealand in my opinion. Swimming lane, walking lane, and plenty of variety for children and soaking pools for everybody. Have just refurbished the changing rooms.
M.
My favourite place for a warm up and relax in winter after an ocean or Pilot bay swim and hike up the mountain. Can get crowded. Off street parking nearly always available. Been going for 50 years.
B.
Overall cool place, but I went there in winter, which means it is cold if you are not inside the water and you can't stay inside for two long, don't really a place where you can relax in the winter - not even the dressing rooms are closed, so there I was freezing as well....so it's nice stay for an hour or so, with a lovely view - but I don't think I'd do it again.
C.
A number of pools and different temperatures to suit all people! They even have the back drop of The Mt! The price should be cheaper for locals I think!
S.
This place is awesome. The scenery is stunning. I had a nice massage and enjoyed a great time in the pools. The lap pool was a bit warm for laps, but was really fun to swim in. The value is great!
K.
on the 1st of june the lovely young man that was doing the contact tracing made me feel warm inside when I saw his eyes made my whole year feel meaningful, it is great to see that you are hiring such lovely sexy young men for the contact tracing e.g. the person on 22nd of may
J.
Several outdoor salt water thermal pools. Reasonable prices & the facilities, like changing rooms, are nice & clean. Lockers available for $2. Location is handy to the mount. Limited parking available in their carpark.
A.
Great space to spend time relaxing! Good choice of pools water was warm. There were quite a lot of people in there. Changing facilities were fine. Parking avaliable and pricing was good.
W.
Clean and a pleasure to swim with my sisters. Nice to rinse off in the freshwater shower and then spin dry my togs. Thank you for the parking
L.
Fantastic if you're a family or with kids but not the place to go if you just want to relax. 3 big pools and no kid free space. If you enjoy having a swim and having some random brat jump on your head or splash you, then I recommend
B.
Nice Really Awesome place and atmosphere the staff are like young happy lifeguards and the lighting and music at night is really nice..cheaper if you are from the area and can provide proof of address in the bay...a really good place to unwind from a hard day at work with different temperatures in all the pools!!!
M.
Pleasant enough pools. Not a big complex so did feel a little crowded at times. Has a couple of main pools of different temperatures so something to suit most.
C.
Lovely pools! Clean facilities. Friendly staff that told us about a discount as we were staying at the adjoining campground 😍😍
D.
Decent price, good experience, actually hot and clean enough. Only complaint would be it was rather loud, but it was a Sunday evening so was to be expected. No frills though (e.g. no complimentary soap in the shower, etc.). Though there are lockers you can pay for, there are also free cubbies outside in the main area, not the safest but an ok alternative.
A.
This pool is a great place to wine down and chill. Fantastic place for children also! HOWEVER there are two staff members who are continuously rude...so we don’t visit as often as we used too.
k.
Perfect pool for a family night over winter .and agreat price if yr local with a residents card. can be little crowded but still nice and relaxing
T.
Well presented facilities with arrsy of pools. Great they offer special rates for locals
A.
Nice, clean with nice view to the mount
O.
Nice atmosphere, good temperature for the pools, fun for all ages
C.
Really awesome place to visit for a relax and/or a swim. Good facilities and now all refurbished. Good views of the Mount from within the pools. Areas of sunshade. Probably could benefit from a café being on site.
S.
Nice place for family day out. Finding a carpark can be a mission. Lots of pools, can get very busy during school holidays.
S.
Great experience to soak in hot salty water.
R.
Hot pools are salt water and have recently had a revamp. Nice in the evening but can get a bit crowded and hate that if you're from Te Puke you can't get local rate even though the Mount gets our artisan water piped to it while we drink chlorinated boer hole water!
G.
Salt water was a great change from chlorine. Kids loved the kids we slide area. Adults loved the powerful jets in the spars. Water in spa could of been hotter.
B.
We love going to the hot pools, it's just about a regular weekly must do for us with the kids.
L.
Only been once but would go again. Pricing isnt bad, especially with the residence cards. Private pools arent anything impressive though, yes theyre private but theyre small and not very pretty compared to the outdoor pool.
E.
Always a treat great service
E.
Fun way to spend an evening. Pools are nice and decently hot. Active pool is great for cooling down a bit. Staying at the beachside holiday park gave a nice discount to the pools.
A.
Lovely pools but try and avoid the times that the organised exercise routines are on some mornings at 10am. The music is a bit noisy and they use up the pool.
A.
Nowhere better to relax after a hard days graft than the hot pools for a couple of hours before popping in a bar for a beer.
C.
Like the pools had a good experience but pool lifeguard was rather rude when it came time to use the male facilities at the end of the night. First impression is the best impression.
A.
The upgrade makes the place a lot more comfortable. One of my favourite places to go. How many places in the world can you go and soak in a thermal hot pool at the base of a mountain at the end of a peninsula?
F.
Lovely receptionist.. Nice and relaxing at that time of day 9am. Got busier towards 10am. Enjoy visiting there.. Thinking of getting a 10 visit discount ticket.
E.
A great place to relax in hot salt pools, do some lengths or have a massage while overlooking the natural bush at the base of Mt Maunganui !
H.
You better to bring own swim rings if you have kids. There were 4 swim rings to share in the pool, but they were highly competitive.
A.
Our family love the hot pools. Great kids area facilities updated in last few years and gated parking means if you are using it you can park outside.
R.
This is a great place to chill on a Friday night. Even when chilly outside the pools have their own little micro climate inside. Wonderful.
S.
These gorgeogs hot pools located at the foot of the Mount provide an excellent location for a relaxing swim. The entry price is reasonable, when I visited $11.00 for a student. Highly recommend!
J.
Finally got to try the Mount hot pools. Nice spot, clean and not too crowded on Tuesday afternoon. Spa hot pool very relaxing ;)
V.
Nice place. 11 nz dollars can make your day. Especially if it is raining or the weather is so bad - just grab a towel and enjoy nice mineral water from hot pools.
Y.
Environment was good there.. but all the pools including spa had same temperature of water.. spa has to be hot please.
Thanks
M.
Awesome!! The personal massage's were great also!! Life guards kept close attention on everyone to keep them safe.
S.
Awsome place to visit and relax no matter what time of the day or night you go your sure to get a glimps of the mount while you relax. Kids love it there and its a good place to take the kids.
L.
Amazing my favorite little spot
A.
Friday 22nd of may was my favourite day of the year purely because of the lovely gentleman doing contact tracing in the afternoon/evening :)
E.
Great place for a windy day at the Mount nice and sheltered
G.
Nice place to relax lovely pool friendly staff
K.
Great place to go at night.... the pools are relaxing and warm. Price is a bit hefty for visitors tho
a.
3 hrs relaxing with young grandson. Several pools with all different temperatures. Great family environment.
M.
Great family place, something a bit different but very nice. Seems a bit pricey for what it is, and the ground was dangerously slippery in places. More mats recommended as there we're clearly not enough.
H.
Excellent place. Forgot to hand my key in and get my $5 but that's okay as we thoroughly enjoyed our visit. Perfect place to relax.
S.
Tidy facilities with a few nice touches. Pools are great and spacious. Particularly found the togs dryer a great feature.
b.
Its clean, warm and friendly.
Nice touch being able to watch a movie while in the pool
P.
Great time had at the hot pools. We had a private room as it was cold and wet on our visit. The room was mid renovation and was a little disappointing. Water was great.
K.
Pretty great place to enjoy the warm water.. it definitely isn't super hot and it isn't a traditional "hot spring" if that's what you are expecting but the pools are amazing and clean.
I.
Full of people during Easter holiday, kids had heaps of fun. Changing was easy, hairdryers provided.
L.
Had private pool as I had a sore back. Ot was quite cold so did help. Screaming sports group in main pool so not relaxing.
J.
Wide variety of pools to suite everyones needs. The facility has also recently been renovated making it an enjoyable place to relax. Highly recommended.
R.
Good people at reception well considering of closing time and offering to use changing room for my daughter thank you for your service
P.
We love the Mount Saltwater Hot Pools well kept and so relaxing to bath in
J.
Definitely a good experience dipping in the hot pool !
L.
We love visiting the Mount Hot Pools every time we come to Mount Maunganui. It is a must do, and makes you instantly feel relaxed and on holiday.
C.
Fantastic setting beside the mountain and sea. Sparkly clean, and they even had the machines to spin dry your togs. Awesome
I.
Great afternoon with kids
D.
Exceptional value for money. Love all the pools. The staff are friendly and vigilant. The facilities are great and I have become a regular visitor.
J.
Been multiple times. It's a simple place but for some reason I always enjoy it. Never fails to relax.
R.
It would have been great if all the people not using this would leave the parking spaces strictly for the pool users n not bcos they can't find a park anywhere else

Of course it's an icon,and with good reason.
I'm 70.

The facilities was nice and modern. The pools were big. There is a lack of parking, which means you may need to find parking elsewhere.
