Miranda Hot Springs Review

Great staff. The water is fine. Just floated around and watched the sun set. Perfect end to the day.

A lovely place to stay. A beautiful swimming pool to idle you time away. Very clean showers and toilets and a lovely place for freedom campers to stay with power available at every parking space.most helpful staff.

The hot spring water is really smooth. Water is much smoother and better than parakai. The temperature is high, and it is recommended to hot spring enthusiasts. It is a shame that there is no shade.

It's alright but pool was dirty alot ot muddy kids coming in and out of pool after playing in the muddy play area

Worth to go to this remote thermal bath. Nice large swimming pool with warm thermal water. Two small pools for toddlers. It was quieter place with less people during our visit.

Kind and clean But without shade, defenseless in sunlight -1 point
I think it's a good idea to get a sock hat
Great place to stop by on rainy days or evenings, not winter
Packed lunches, fish and chips, nachos

Without a doubt, Miranda Hot Springs is a wonderful place to relax and enjoy this wonderful hot spring water surrounding your body. It is so invigorating for the body and mind. We try to get there at least once a week, if not more. WARNING: Do not stay in the water too long as it can sap your energy without you realising it. A Life Guard is in attendance at all times.

Nice to get away from the big smoke and warm up in a hot pool, toilets could do with an upgrade also a few more showers (with hot water) would be nice.

its closed for renovations been closed for 12 months

I try to swim and stretch here once a week its good for the body and excellent for the mind

Pools are ok but the shower/toilets/changing rooms are in long need of a refresh

Awesome place for a BBQ with lots of soaking before and after. Changing rooms cold but still lovely evening

Fun. Warm. Not too expensive. We're missing the fun activities they have had in the main pool in the past though

Great atmosphere, will definitely be visiting again, in the near future

If you want to quietly relax this is a good spot in the morning.

Fantastic place for a weekend get away. Lovely tent sites under the trees. Book ahead for grassy powered sites.

Lovely place with heaps of pool choice. Hot, cold, or something in between. Nice to be able to leave valuables in a safety deposit box.

Way too expensive for such an outdated low quality facility that hasn't changed in 20+ years.

$14 for an adult to enjoy a cracked concrete, paint peeling pool with dirty water full of hair and floating skin particles, an aged changing / shower facilities with dirty toilets and rusty fittings. The cafe is mediocre and food quality ok.
The place hasn't had any renovations or upgrades in at least 20 years.
The only + is that there are some BBQ and picnic facilities.

It's ok, private spa was good. Went into the big pool and noticed a couple where a women was scratching dead skin off/ pressing pimples off her partners back in the water then another women with bad toe fungus got in the pool. That's when we decided to leave as we where so disgusted. There is no supervision around to check for these things or life guards. Very unhyghinic.

It's like stepping back in time, great soak in the pools thanks!

Best hot springs just out of Auckland great private spas and a huge Openair hot spring pool

Great place for a thermal soak. Very chilled through the week. A good time to go.
Huge main pool. Spa pools, as well as private ones. Kids pool too. Although not any of their food area was open if you wanted a bite to eat after. However a good fish and chips just up the road for dinner or lunches.

Sooo convenient to get to from Auckland. Real thermal water, not that heated chlorinated garbage. Large pool is pretty warm most of the time and smaller pool at end is the best. Nice and hot Private cedar spas are also nice for those more intimate times.
I haven't tried the hot food but the cold drinks are appreciated when you forget to bring something.
Don't forget to visit the Kaiaua Fish shop just down the road. Check the times so you aren't disappointed.

Waste of money for big green tub of warm water, no umbrellas or lounging areas, grubby toilets and barely a shower. Simply not what you will be expecting.

Really laid back with a locals feel. :). Would visit again.

Used to be a nice place but has become quite dirty and run down.

Awesome place. Love coming here especially when not so busy.

Great pools, but bloody stupid new summer hours - closing at 5:30pm. Don't think I will ever make it here again. Such a shame.

Sad to say my opinion is that the pools will never reopen still looks like it did before they closed and ring the number on the website and they say to check the website and yet the last up date was a 6 months ago because of covid.
Obviously the owners don't care anymore what a wast of a love spot

Good pools but facilities clearly need improvement; only one shower unit for guys etc

Peed in the pool and it didn't change colours, saved myself from an embarrassing confrontation with the pool manager.

Great place to take the kids and can also bring your own picnic!! Lovely drive and very relaxing!!

The Hot Springs are very crowded with no ambience. I suppose I'm thinking a little bit of scenery as you might find at camping grounds that have pools. The eating area is awful. Broken walls.nothing nice about this area. Young people hanging about the shop staff. Coffee very ordinary. Very disappointed. At $9.50 just to be a spectator seems a bit much.

Been going there for years excellent place good food wonderful owners

Too expensive. Changing sheds are outdated, only 1 shower in the ladies. Pool could do with a good clean

Liked the pools. Staff were a major let down. So rude!!! Will never return there. We travelled from auckland, to spend the day here and it was a terrible experience because of staff. They need to be trained asap on how to speak to their PAYING customers

Ok Place, but horrible service, disgusting toilets and really expensive products very little care about lost items or complaints they just ignore. If you wsnt a peaceful, cheap and safe experience DO NOT GO HERE.

Water is nice, but the facility is really dirty. The changing rooms, toilets, shower room are in very poor and dirty condition. I was starting to wonder if I was in New Zealand. An upgrade/renovation of the facility is desperately needed.

Can't say enough about them Awesome place Everyone should visit , best camp I have ever been ti

The staff were very friendly. I thought the drive was out the way and the prices a bit on the steep side. The facilities are adequate with a grass patch, some BBQs, tables and chairs, change rooms toilets and a single shower. Everything looks like it could do with a bit of a spruce up. I would have appreciated a bit of shade covering over the pool. The cafe had good food and wonderful service.

Staff are so lovely and it is indeed a beautiful spa to relax.

Great place for family outing. Just south of Auckland and a lovely drive getting there.

Water aas only tepid invtge pool. The grounds were good.

Great place to warm up on a chilly day - very reasonably priced as well. Good for family picnics

This place is largely the same as 20 years ago. A "rustic" kiwi thermal bathing experience, with decent fish and chips onsite. Great outing with the family - just don't expect fancy facilities.

Stayed at the Miranda holiday Park. It was fantastic.
Went and ordered dinner next door at the hot springs takeaway.
It was rubbish, so over priced. While we will be back to the holiday Park. We will not go next door.
* Footnote*
Miranda hot springs are a separate entity to the holiday park.

Hot springs, great pool, BBQ facilities. Just what you need

Very pleasant and relaxing although staff was a bit too relaxed for my like about others disregarding pool rules

Very relaxing hot pools and top class camping ground. Also good area with mini golf flying fox beach volleyball court outdoor table tennis boulls and chess set. Spotless facilities

Great place to spend an hour or two soaking on the way home from just about anywhere southeast of Auckland. Just remember to keep your head and jewellery out of the water.

It's got a very very big mineral pool,spa pool,barbecue area.Kids pool,playground. You can take food & drink.Has takeaways.

Not the prettiest - definitely not insta-worthy but a great value hot pool with reliable facilities if you are interested in the benefits other than just something to do around Auckland. We go here weekly in the winter to rest the muscles after a hearty gym sesh. There's only hot pools (and one kids pool but no thanks) so it's not smart to come here if it's over 15'C outside. Otherwise it's just too hot.

It had really cool facilities and really nice service.

Very nice love the pool the people friendly stuff every thing was great I will come back next holidays
