Stayed in Hanmer for a week, had an amazing time and enjoyed the pools most days Visited on: Weekend Wait time No wait Reservation recommended Yes

Very, very well maintained. Even during rainy days there's no spliery surface. The pools are crystal clear and very clean. The landscaping is amazing. The slides are fun. There are some drinking water fountains. The changing room in the unisex toilets come with shower, shampoo, conditioner, soap and body lotion! The current pool even comes with some floats. Plenty of lifeguards, making sure that everyone is safe. The front counter ladies are friendly. Easily spend at least 1 hour here, ideally 2 hours and even multiple entry. There are lockers for hire but they also have pigeon holes where people can put their belongings at their own risk, no charges. The cafe looks warm and spacious. This place is suitable for all ages and very wheelchair friendly, but there are some advisory for pregnant womens not to use super hot/ sulfur pools. The prices are reasonable, you can book tickets from Bookme website for a better price.

What a treat to dip in the waters and minerals of the various pools this morning, mostly to ourselves for at least a moment, and looking up to the snow clad mountains in the distance. Wait time: No wait
