Polynesian Spa

Sometimes wellness looks like a full day of self-care. Other times, it’s simply carving out an hour for yourself 💙

This Global Wellness Day, take the opportunity to recharge in whatever way feels right - whether that’s a lakeside soak, a massage, or a quiet cup of tea overlooking the water.

The best kind of catch-up? One that happens in our deluxe lake spa ♨️

Good chats, warm mineral water, and nowhere else to be - just how it should be.

We’re feeling incredibly grateful 💙🏆

Polynesian Spa has officially been recognised with the 2026 Tripadvisor Travellers’ Choice Award, placing us among the top 10% of rated attractions worldwide.

This recognition means so much because it comes directly from the people who know us best - our guests. Every review, recommendation, and shared experience has helped make this possible.

Whether you’ve visited for a quiet lakeside soak, a special spa day, or a chance to recharge, thank you for choosing to spend that time with us.

To everyone who has supported Polynesian Spa and shared the aroha along the way - thank you.

Long weekend incoming 🙌

No alarm. No agenda. Just warm mineral pools, lake views and all the time in the world to do absolutely nothing.

We're open daily 9am–11pm - come make the most of it.

Soak, then slip straight into your treatment 💆‍♀️🌊

At Polynesian Spa, your spa day flows effortlessly, from the lakeside pools to your therapy room, all set against the steamy, mineral-rich views of Sulphur Bay.

Start with a lakeside soak, unwind into the warmth, then continue the experience with a massage or facial just steps away. No rushing, no resetting - just one seamless moment of relaxation.
