We visited Secret Spot for a mid-morning soak and overall had a lovely experience. The staff couldn’t have been friendlier, and because it was a quiet time and we arrived slightly early for our booking, we were able to access our hot tub for longer than expected. Winning! It’s worth understanding the vibe here before booking. This isn’t necessarily a silent or private experience. While the setting feels tucked away among beautiful ferns and flowing water, you do still catch glimpses of other guests, and your experience can be influenced somewhat by who’s soaking nearby. In our case, the two friends in the neighbouring tub were quite animated and loud, so much so that we could easily follow their conversation (and could have easily joined in with song requests for their Spotify playlist!). It did detract somewhat from the relaxing atmosphere for us though, to be fair, the website does make it clear that Secret Spot is designed to be casual and social rather than completely secluded. Having hot drinks delivered directly to our tub was a real treat, and the clear stream running behind us added to the peaceful, natural setting. We hired towels for $5 each, and robes were available for an additional $10. We skipped the robes and just used our winter coats, which worked perfectly well. Overall, we enjoyed the experience and left feeling relaxed. While we’re really glad we tried it before driving out of Rotorua and onward in our travels, it’s probably not somewhere we’d return to again.

Beautiful experience at dusk, the place is welcoming and warm. Access to the hot tubs is via a wooden walkway, the setting is magnificent. You have access to a cold plunge. And there is a pitcher of fresh water available at your spa. Everything is designed for relaxation, with a view of the forest.

I was probably a little disappointed. It wasn’t as private as I thought it was going to be. We had a bunch of girls next to us having a great time . But I could have joined their conversation 😂. Water was beautiful and clean but I could smell the chlorine. I did love how you could order food and drinks to be delivered. Overall it was pretty relaxing

My absolute to go to here in Rotorua. From the tranquil bush surroundings, the privacy of your own tubs, to the delicious food, wide range of refreshments, and live music performances… What tops this place is its great pricing, and clean premises…

Great location- lush forest and beautiful vibes in the food garden. Take a towel or hire for $5 per towel. Drinks are reasonably priced.
