Onsen Hot Pools

Onsen Hot Pools Queenstown is a boutique spa that will give you the ultimate relaxation experience. It might be quite pricey as it costs $150 for 2 pax for a one hour exclusive use of an onsen tub, but it is no doubt the best activity that I paid for in New Zealand! In your private room, there is a retractable roof which allows you to switch from an indoor to an outdoor onsen experience with the push of a button. The moment the roof opens, you will be able to enjoy stunning panoramic views of the mountains across the rivers. We spent most of our time taking photos and I wish I had more time to actually enjoy the onsen experience. If only it wasn’t that pricey. #momentssg #unforgettableexperiences #travelinspiration

| Onsen.♨Onsen wooden barrel hot spring/onsen hot pools : New Zealand This hot spring is located about 20min drive from Queenstown, it can be considered the ceiling of the hot spring world! Soaking in the hot spring while looking at the snow-capped mountains outside the window⛰, quiet and comfortable time~ And it's super comfortable to soak in, the water is also very clean!!! There are a row of adjustment buttons next to it, you can adjust the temperature yourself. At the same time, the privacy is very good, each room is allowed to use for 1 hour, it's enough to soak in the hot spring during leisure time. This time we went with four people, worried that one pool would not be enough to soak in, so we booked two rooms, but there was no need to worry. It's spacious enough to swim haha Of course, how can you have a hot spring without drinks☕ and snacks? The hotel🏨 will prepare drinks, mineral water, ice cream and chocolate in advance. The photos taken are really good, and it's more than enough to post on social media. The only downside is that it's hard to book, we booked two months in advance and only got the afternoon time, the sunset time slot was sold out early. If you plan to go to Queenstown, New Zealand, go and soak in the hot spring♨!!! The ice cream from Patagonia in the town is also super delicious🍦😋

If you are in the South Island of New Zealand, especially when visiting the Queenstown area, then you MUST VISIT this place! Located just 10mins drive away from the city of Queenstown, the onsen hot pool is very accessible for those driving and even if you are not, there is a free shuttle bus that comes along every booking as well! Words can’t properly describe how amazing the experience is in this place. The private hot tubs overlooks the river and picturesque mountain, giving all visitors a perfect relaxation experience! Depending on the season you are here, and whether it is the day or night time, you are bound to be in the best hot pool experience in your life. These private tubs are perfect for individual or couples usage and I must say time has never ever pass so fast in my life before while inside the cabins! There is also a retractable roof for those who prefers an indoor private experience, although I would highly recommend to open up the roof as soon as you are there. REMEMBER, to make advance booking because the place is sold out weeks in advance usually! #newzealand #momentssg #scenicspotguide #unforgettableexperiences #decembertravel

We traveled to the South Island of New Zealand by car from the end of June to the beginning of July, which belongs to winter season, so how can we miss the experience of soaking in hot springs! Although the online reviews of Onsen Hot Pools are very mixed, when we made an appointment on the official website nearly three months before departure, we found that many time slots in July had already been booked. Seeing that it was so popular, we decided to give it a try. Successfully booked a traditional private indoor hot spring at dusk. Our reserved time slot was from 5:00 pm to 6:00 pm. We arrived 15 minutes early as required. The staff were very friendly. We choose our drinks first, the staff said they would send them to the hot springs with snacks later. At 4:55, the staff led us to the private hot spring, and also served drinks and snacks, indicating that there would be a reminder 10 minutes before the end of the time slot. We changed our swimsuits, there were shower facilities in the private hot springs, and after a quick shower, we immediately enjoyed the hot springs. Spring water dynamics, lights, door switches, etc., can be automatically adjusted by action buttons right next to the hot spring. While enjoying the hot springs to relax our body and mind, we enjoyed the sunset and the beautiful mountains. One hour passed without knowing it, the fatigue of rushing for the trip for several days was relieved, and we all left with satisfied smiles. Overall, we recommend everyone to try it out. The key points of the reservation are as follows: 1. It is convenient and easy to make an appointment on the official website, and it can also be cancelled free of charge at the specified time 2. There are two types of hot springs: outdoor and indoor. It is also available for 4 people to book together. The more number of people to share, the cheaper for each 3. Each session is an hour 4. Be sure to make an appointment at least 2-3 months in advance as if super popular 5. The hot spring is currently undergoing expansion work, so arrive early to be on time You need to report to the front desk 15 minutes before your scheduled time slot 6. It doesn't matter if you are not self-driving, because they provide hourly pick-up and drop off service, a small from the centre of Queenstown. #can’t miss experience
