6 Unmissable New Zealand Spa Experiences
Who else is a sucker for a spa day? Well I’m here to share the top 6 spas in NZ that you cannot miss!
I am all for a big adventure while traveling, but there are always those days or even just moments where you need to not only chill but treat yourself, girl! I am fully there for a day to myself and some time where I can rest and recover from all the craziness of traveling. Believe it or not, a full schedule including eating, drinking, taking photos, and shopping is VERY tiring. Some time to absorb calm and serenity is often just what I need to keep my mental health in check and also give myself a chance to not overdo it.
We all know the saying that often you need a holiday to recover from your holiday, right? Well, you won’t be needing one after you add some of these insane spas to your New Zealand bucket list!
6 Unmissable New Zealand Spa Experiences
Onsen Spa Pool
Located approximately 10 minutes outside of Queenstown city center, the Onsen Spa Pools provide unbeatable views supplemented by 5-star service and facilities. Having been to the Onsen admittedly every time I go to Queenstown, which is probably more than the average ‘Aucklander’, I can highly recommend this as a fun spot to relax and feed your gram!

You can choose between different packages and services depending on what you are looking to do. Once you arrive you will be able to select your choice of food/drinks to enjoy while you soak and/or get pampered.
