Small amount of sites, with hot showers, kitchen, laundry and drying room.

There is a cafe and reception by the pools which are accessed through a gate. Campers have exclusive access to the pools in the morning which makes this campsite really worth it, it’s beautiful at 6am and freshly refilled and clean too. There are extra showers and toilets by the pools which. I recommended the 5 minute walk up the ‘eco trail’ to see the hot water spring.

There is a very cheap price for Under 5s and then a child price for over 5s.

Great spot.

$60 for two people camping with hot pools included (would’ve cost $50 for two people in hot pools anyway). Pools lovely, a lot quieter in the morning and you can enter before the public at 8.30 for a completely private experience. Shower and toliets available. $4 wash and $4 dryer.

Great value if you're using the thermal pools (we paid ~$60 for 2 ppl on an unpowered site; admission is $25pp).

You also get to use the pools from 6am before it's open to the public, which was lovely. But camp facilities are very basic - not that many toilets / showers; no hairdryer; no crockery / utensils in the small kitchen; no dining area.

Basic facilities, not a lot of space, very dense.

But you‘re here for the hot pools and they are worth it! 60$ per night for unpowered site, but includes unlimited access to pools. You don‘t want to spend your holidays here, but it‘s a great place for 2 days and a night.

Reservation always recommended, campground is very popular (we were lucky to get the last open spot).

Best decision to stay here.

We were able to access the pools both in the evening we arrived and first thing in the morning before officially opening. Short walk to the spring was also a bonus. Amazing hot showers and kitchen facilities where we were able to get a quick phone charge in as well! Definitely worth the money.

Lovely place if you're looking for a smaller quiet place with hot pools.

As a campsite guest you're allowed to enter the pools in the morning before it opens for regular guests. Pools were lovely and also a nice walk to the hot spring where you can see the boiling water coming out of the ground. Facilities were small but clean!

The springs, the pools and the nature around are awesome.

It is peaceful and quiet all-day and the staff is very friendly. But the pitches are tiny and the bathrooms, kitchen and shower are nothing more than ok. It felt like the staff gave up cleaning, in particular at the pools. Consequently, ants and, after dark, cockroaches very present. A shambles as otherwise we would have given 9 or 10.

Nice place off the beaten track with very friendly staff.

It’s wonderful going for a hot dip before breakfast and before the pools are open to the general public. After a day of activities in Rotorua we then return for another hot dip after dinner. The hot pools here are wonderful and senic, the only reason for not giving the campsite 10/10 is for lack of grey waste disposal.

Brilliant place to stay.

Highlight is definitely being able to utilise the hot pools for $25 per person (unpowered). Costs $20 for an adult to enter the hot pools anyway. So relaxing & if you walk the eco trail you can see the source bubbling up! Love it here.
