Hanmer Springs Thermal Pools & Spa is a geothermal pool and spa complex at 42 Amuri Avenue in the alpine village of Hanmer Springs, North Canterbury. Its website bills it as New Zealand's largest geothermal hot pools, and notes that locals have used the geothermal water beneath the town for generations.
The complex has two main zones: a Family Play Zone with hydroslides and freshwater pools, and an Adult Oasis Zone with thermal pools. Alpine views, changing rooms and the Tea Kiosk Cafe are on site, and outside food is allowed. The Spa offers treatments, and an Elemental Contrast Therapy experience alternates temperature environments. Opening hours shown on the site are 10am to 9pm.
The website lists conferences and group bookings, school groups, packages and gift vouchers. It does not publish meeting room capacities, so it is best treated as a wellness and incentive activity, or a post-conference relaxation option, with details confirmed directly. It lists a 2025 Tripadvisor Travellers' Choice Award and a sustainable tourism commitment for 2025-26.
