- These pools are privately owned and the Maori trust that owns them allows the public the use for a small fee. So I am not surprised the 3 boats and 19 people were told to go. It is not a fun park.Also they are not promoted as a tourist destination, so just as well the lady is crossing them off her agency's list. No wonder the man was rude, probably thought' great more tourists' !

- Visited many many times as a kid, I have some wonderful memories of the pools and the hot/cold challenges. Its an amazing place with beautiful atmosphere. They are something I miss very much about NZ.

- Loved this place! Just bliss to be able to soak in the hot pool and look out at the lake, and think of others at work in cold UK!
Lovely to be able to kayak there and we had the place to ourselves. No one about, so put the money in the honesty box.

- Visited early 08. threatened by the manager and a large dog. We were 1 of 3 boats 5 familys 19 of us of various ages. we wanted to use the pools whilst entertaing kids on sea buscuit just off shore. then confronted by the Manager. this is not acceptable. We wont be coming back. Im a member of biggest boating club in NZ really sad to give this feed back but the man was really unpleasant.

- "Heaven On Earth" is the best way to discribe this little gem of NZ!! Topped off with the Hosts Barry & Toni who are tops in caring and maintaining the beauty of what a Hot Springs visit should be !! Kia Ora

- This is perhaps my favourite spot in the world. The pools are so peaceful, the lack of road access keeps large tourist groups away. If you can hire a boat or kayaks then you will love a day on the lake, finished off with a soak in the pools.

- Rang up to enquire about these pools and the rudest man answered the phone grunted and hung up!! crossed these pools straight off the sight seeing agenda for my tour agency. Unbelievable!!

- Know anywhere else in the world where you can sail in a small dinghy to hot springs and enjoy a soak in a range of pools of different temperatures combined with a dive off the jetty into a cold lake to sharpen you up a bit. If you like gazing out at all the hardware parked on the jetties thats fine but the passing parade of bodies is far more interesting. Large pohutakawas dropping onto you in the pool are one of the more unusual hazards.

- I love these hotpools. I have been coming here since I was a kid. You need a boat to access the pools which come people see as a negative, but I think it just adds to the character of the pools. Best of all, when you get too hot, you can cool off by jumping into Lake Rotoiti about 5 metres away. Beautiful.

- These are a nice set of pools that vary in temperature. The only problem is that these pools are only accessible by boat.
