Hanmer Springs is a picturesque village surrounded by mountains and forests just 90 minutes’ easy drive from Christchurch.
With crisp alpine air, Hanmer Springs has a relaxed ambiance that is hard to describe. It is genuinely a place that feels a world away from anywhere, but with all the comforts of home.
As soon as you arrive and see the mini-golf courses on the main street and the crazy four wheeled bikes (complete with baby seats) cruising, you know why this has long been a favourite holiday spot for the whole family.
The most popular attraction is Hanmer Springs Thermal Pools and Spa.
This award-winning complex has something for everyone. You can sit and soak in famous, mineral-filled waters (including the adults-only AquaTherapy Pools which has spouts and jets to massage away aches and pains) or let off some steam in the large activity pools and on the waterslides. Don’t miss the SuperBowl, the South Island’s only aquatic thrill ride.

Nice little stop off.
Private hot pool would have been better if it was in the open air.

Beautiful panoramic view.
Lots of different pools. Price of $22 was good. Enjoyed it. Maybe a bit too crowded.

Approximately 20/person.
Nice pools, but not very natural looking. Looks like a waterpark. This would be good for families, but some of the pools are adult only, which was really great for us. All in all though, we had a great relaxing time here and would go back again.

For a rainy stop it is perfect.
A huge choice of pools. The entrance fee is okay, only the fee to lock your stuff is too much.

Too expensive for what you get.
However, very relaxing. Could spend a whole day there. These are NOT natural pools though.

A nice relaxing few hours in the hot pools.
However, they were almost too hot on a sunny day!
