Wai Ariki Hot Springs & Spa
Rotorua, New Zealand
Geothermal wellness destination owned by Ngāti Whakaue, opened 2023 on the shores of Lake Rotorua; a 48,000 sq ft facility whose architecture symbolises the ancestral waka (canoe) journey that brought Māori to New Zealand, weaving rongōā Māori healing traditions, mineral-rich bathing and Wai Whakaora body treatments (including traditional Māori massage and spiritual incantations) into a contemporary luxury spa experience. Named Rotorua's top wellness destination by Matador.
