First I would like to say…if you got big bucks and want to go to some posh place and live the high life then Waingaro Hot Springs is not for you….yes I do agree a bit of false advertising there….like others we travelled there only to be a little overwhelmed to say the least….but overall we had a fantastic time…yes could be cleaner but what a great family holiday and the hosts are so friendly…..this is truely the ultimate kiwi experience not for the faint hearted and YES I would be back in a heartbeat…Ye haaa
