About Us
Often, when I’m looking for something on the internet I come across an online directory. Directories suck. The lists are incomplete and biased towards whoever is paying to be listed on the site.
For example, ALL of the online NZ tourism directories have an accommodation section but you’ll only get a small list of total number of accommodation options – you’ll just see places that can afford to pay to be listed.
To get a complete picture of your options, you could visit multiple directories… who can be bothered? Not I!
The system is great for the website owner (they are earning revenue from the paying members) and great for the paying vendors (they get exposure) but not so great for the website visitor – you!

Temperature was 28 degrees and PH of 6.6. It has been exceptionally consistently rainy this year and this has probably contributed to the great swimability of the lake at this time. Swam 20 meters out to near the centre without any fluctuation in temperature. Highly recommended this season- June 2023.
This is a fantastic hot spring experience! The access is super easy- 10 stairs directly into the river. The water was very hot in some areas and just over warm in others. It should be called “Hot ‘n’ Warm”. On a Monday school holiday there was 12 other people amongst 6 pools, so not busy at all!! Most highly recommended-…
My parents owned it for many years. Sad it closed. Amazing place to grow up
