Beneath the majesty of Mauao relax and unwind in the only hot ocean water complex in the world.
(254)

For centuries, the ocean has healed and re-energised us...

As far back as 500BC, Hippocrates recognised the benefits of warmed seawater for its ability to rebalance and detoxify our bodies. Salt water bathing was believed to improve mobility by easing muscle and joint inflammation, and general aches and pains. Today, those healing properties remain, and it's all right here beneath the majesty of Mauao, Mount Maunganui.

• Feel the pool's massage jets release the tension from your neck and back
• Rebalance your body and your soul with a little exercise in the activity pool
• Laugh as your little ones splash and play on the slide in their own dedicated toddler pool
• Relax in a private pool and enjoy a therapeutic soak in your own little world
• Treat yourself to a massage with the specialist on-site team

The moment you enter the water at Mount Hot Pools feel the magic for yourself. Close your eyes and relax as the warm ocean mists nourish your body and soul...

Kia ora everyone,

We hope you’re enjoying the sunshine, spring is well and truly here! We have an update to share with you. This week, you'll notice some activity on site as clean-up work begins in the car park area. Just to be clear: this doesn’t mean we are reopening soon, but it is a welcome bit of progress.

This work is expected to take a few days and will happen during daytime hours (approx. 8am-5pm). It may create some noise from machinery and vehicles. The site remains closed to the public, with safety exclusion zones in place. This work is not expected to affect traffic or access to Adams Ave.

The families directly affected by the Mauao landslide tragedy in January remain in our thoughts. This work will be carried out carefully and respectfully, recognising the sensitivity of the site, and following strict health and safety controls.

Safety remains our top priority, and future decisions about the pools will be guided by the ongoing risk assessment work.

Thank you for your patience and continued support of our Mount community and local businesses. It’s so great to see our friends at the Mount Maunganui Lifeguard Service back home in time for summer. ❤️

Kia ora everyone,

Hands up who’s missing our beautiful hot pools?

We are just checking in to say, hello and let you know while we don’t have much news right now, we do want to update you as much as we can.

Right now, our maunga and the surrounding area, including the Mount Hot Pools are still closed. Works are ongoing by geo-tech experts to assess the risk of future landslides and while that’s happening, our crew is also busy behind the scenes, assessing our venue and site to get a clear picture of the damage and understand what we do next.

We’re just as keen as you are to see the Mount Hot Pools back open again – if and when it is safe to do so. The safety of our staff and customers, workers, and our community is the priority. Our thoughts are still with those families affected by the landslides just a few short months ago.

We cannot thank you enough for your ongoing support, and as always, we will be in touch as soon as we can with any updates.

If you want more details or have questions, please head to the council website here: https://www.tauranga.govt.nz/council/mauao-landslide/

Kia ora everyone, we want to thank you for all your support so far, we’ve read every message and appreciate your care and patience. It's clear the Mount Hot Pools holds a special place in our community. We know everyone is eager for updates and we want to assure you we will share information with you as soon as we can.

In the meantime, if you’re missing your regular activities or familiar faces, you can find them across Baywave and our community pools. Aquafit, Golden Hour, lap swimming and spas are all available – you can find timetables and lane availability here, www.taurangapools.co.nz.

Our Mount Hot Pools team are also working across these pools so, you might see a familiar face or two. Plus, you can still book with your favourite Mount Hot Pools massage therapists, who are currently working out of Baywave.

Thank you again for your heartfelt support, as we start to plan for the future, our thoughts stay with the families affected by the landslides across our region. We will update you as soon as possible.❤️

It has been an incredibly challenging and heartbreaking few days, and we know the impact of Thursday’s landslide will be felt for a long time. We are part of this community, and we share in its deep sadness. First and foremost, our thoughts are with the families who have been directly affected.

We want to express our sincere thanks to the emergency workers, council teams, our own staff, and everyone who has supported those affected. We have been humbled by the outpouring of aroha from whānau, friends, our sector partners, and the many organisations we work alongside.

He Maimai Aroha is now open at 249 Maunganui Road from 9am–9pm. Implemented by Tauranga City Council, Tangata Whenua and Mount Mainstreet, this space provides a quiet, respectful area for reflection, messages of aroha, and community support. For those unable to visit in person, an online condolences form is available: https://www.tauranga.govt.nz/he-maimai-aroha-community-care-centre

Kia kaha, kia māia, kia manawanui.
