Q. What is Onsen Retreat & Day Spa?
A.

Onsen is a highlight for many on a visit to Queenstown. Boasting idyllic exclusive use cedar-lined hot pools overlooking the Shotover River, and a newly expanded day spa facility, the Onsen complex offers a high-quality boutique retreat and day spa experience. The relaxation and pampering on offer here are second to none in the region, as endorsed by recent win in the 2023 World Luxury Spa Awards and our partnership with Tourism New Zealand.

Q. Where is the Onsen Retreat & Day Spa located?
A.

Onsen is located at 162 Arthurs Point Rd, Arthurs Point. Perched on the cliffs overlooking the Shotover River and amidst a stunning mountain range, this old gold miner’s town is just 10mins from Queenstown or 13km from Arrowtown making it a convenient, tranquil escape from the more action packed, adrenaline filled activities and winery offerings in the region.

Q. What does Onsen mean?
A.

Onsen is the Japanese word for Hot Spring. Traditionally Onsen’s are large public bathing pools heated by geothermal energy. They are typically separated for males and females and set in gardens with plenty of snow surrounding them in winter.

Onsen Retreat & Day Spa Queenstown has added a unique kiwi twist to this tradition – offering a range of indoor and outdoor cedar hot tubs heated to 38.5 degrees celsius so you can enjoy the spectacular surrounds no matter what the weather. We also now offer private, oval tubs as part of our day spa offering so for the ultimate in relaxation and pampering check out our Soak & Spa packages.

Q. This is nothing like a traditional Onsen hot spring?
A.

Aside from the picturesque setting and snow in winter, we are not trying to provide a traditional, authentic Onsen Hot Spring experience. Our Onsen pools are a unique kiwi twist on this Japanese bathing tradition with a range of hot tub options to suit all your relaxation needs – indoor & outdoor exclusive use pools as well as private, oval tubs as part of our onsite day spa.

Q. How long has Onsen Retreat and Day Spa been operational?

A.

Onsen offers a high-quality boutique retreat and day spa experience. Set below the road on the cliffs overlooking the Shotover River, the complex is a convenient, tranquil escape from the more action packed, adrenaline filled activities and winery offerings in the region.

On arrival, take a short walk (approx. 100m) down from the carpark via the stairs or gently sloping gravel track as you soak up the amazing mountain scenery that surrounds you.

Once ready, our staff will show you to your pool or day spa treatment room and answer any questions you have.

You will be notified at the 50-minute mark so that you are ready to depart when the buzzer goes off after 60 minutes. Each tub is heated to approx. 38.5 degrees celsius, and shared changing facilities are available either across the hallway from the indoor pool rooms or in the outdoor changing cubby.

Due to consumer demand, we are heavily booked most days so we would really appreciate your support in making sure you vacate the pool rooms in a timely fashion.

We are renowned for our cedar hot tubs which are a unique kiwi twist to a Japanese bathing tradition. Heated to 38.5 degrees celsius, our Original Onsen and Outdoor Onsen pools allow you to kick back, relax and enjoy the spectacular views on offer no matter what the weather.

Our Outdoor Onsen hot tubs are exclusive use pools, separated by planting and are covered with a shade sail to offer some protection from the elements. Each pool comes with its own changing cabin and shower so you can rinse off before and after your swim. You may be able to hear your neighbours which is why we ask that you respect the other guests and keep your noise to a reasonable level during your visit.

Our Original Onsen cedar lined hot tubs are also exclusive use and come complete with a retractable roof and shower. These pools share adjoining walls and a retractable glass door.

Togs must always be worn in all pools. All guests will enjoy a complimentary drink and snack of their choice for the ultimate in relaxation.

Onsen is the Japanese word for Hot Spring and our cedar hot tubs are a unique kiwi twist on this outdoor bathing tradition. Heated to 38.5 degrees celsius, our indoor and outdoor hot tubs allow you to kick back, relax and enjoy the spectacular views on offer no matter what the weather. The outdoor pools do have shade covers over them to offer some protection from the elements whatever the season, but traditionally Onsen’s are set in gardens and enjoyed year-round.

Q. Can I just use the pools without having to get a massage/facial?
A.

Q. Can I use the pools if I am pregnant?
A.

Q. What do I do if the pools are too hot?
A.

The water temperature in the pools is set to approx. 38.5 degrees celsius. If you find the pool too hot, you can add cold water at any time by pushing the button beside your hot tub. Note: For our Original Onsen Pools, the water will fall from a spout on the roof so make sure you stand clear unless you are ready for a cold plunge!

A.

No. Dehydration and overheating are very real possibilities given the temperature of our pools. Consuming alcohol while in this condition significantly increases the chance of fainting or falling, with significant potential for injury.

A.

Q. How private are the pools?
A.

At Onsen, our indoor and outdoor pools are exclusive use. They are not private.
Our outdoor cedar lined hot tubs are surrounded by planting to provide privacy from fellow bathers but you will still hear voices which is why we ask that you respect the other guests and keep your noise to a reasonable level during your visit. Each pool also comes with its own changing cabin.
Our indoor cedar lined hot tubs come complete with a retractable roof and shower. These pools share adjoining walls and have a glass door so while you can’t see any other guests from the indoor hot tubs, you may still hear voices.
For those seeking the ultimate in indulgence and privacy, our new Serenity Soak tubs, set on their own deck in front of a tranquil day spa room overlooking the Shotover River and Southern Alps, are an option. These oval cedar tubs can accommodate up to two people and are located on the upper level of the Onsen complex to ensure a level of peace and calm. Lockers are available in the day spa for personal items.

Q. Do you have to wear togs in the pools?
A.

Yes. Togs are compulsory in all our exclusive use cedar hot pools .

Q. Can Onsen guarantee that its pools are clean?
A.

At Onsen, we are very proud of the boutique retreat and day spa experience that we provide, and we are confident that our water quality, treatment and cleaning systems are best in class. While we capture pure water from the surrounding mountains to fill the pools, it is necessary to continually treat the water to ensure purity and quality. We have several steps in our daily maintenance process that ensure the cleanliness of our pools to a high standard. These include:
• For our Original Onsen and Outdoor Onsen pools the water is constantly refreshed with 1.5 litres of water per minute exiting the pool and 1.5 litres of fresh water being added.
• Each pool is electronically monitored at one second intervals as the water rotates between the pool and filtration system. The electronics compare the ideal readings to the actual readings and adjust as necessary.
• As the water circulates, it passes through a sand filter and a UV unit and then if required a small dose of bromine is added as a final disinfectant.
• In addition, a staff member undertakes manual pool tests four times a day as a back up to the electronic system.
• The shared facilities are also cleaned on the hour or approx. 10 times each day

•The smaller, private Serenity Soak oval tubs offered to our day spa guests are emptied, cleaned and re-filled with fresh water for each new booking but in keeping with our environmental responsibilities, we limit the number of bookings for these hot tubs each day.

Q. Are there chemicals in the pool water?
A.

While we capture pure water from the surrounding mountains to fill the pools, it is necessary to continually treat the water to ensure purity and quality at the warm temperatures.

As the water circulates, it passes through a sand filter and a UV unit. Each pool is monitored by high tech computer equipment constantly monitoring the water and if required, a small amount of bromine is added as a final disinfectant.

Q. Why doesn’t Onsen empty the pools after every use?
A.

At Onsen Retreat & Day Spa, we are very proud of the boutique day spa experience that we provide but we are also mindful of treading gently on the picturesque environment that surrounds us. We capture pure water from the surrounding mountains to fill the pools and to empty each of the larger 4 person pools after every use would be hugely wasteful. We are confident that our water quality, treatment and cleaning systems are best in class and we have several steps in our daily maintenance process that ensures the cleanliness of our pools to a consistently high standard.
The small private Serenity Soak tubs offered to our Day Spa guests are emptied, cleaned and re-filled with fresh water for each new booking.

Q. Why have you removed the doors from the indoor pools and replaced them with glass?
A.

This is a new Health and Safety requirement for Onsen Day Spa & Retreat. As the pools are hot and we offer a complimentary glass of alcohol to adults as part of our packages, Onsen staff always need to be able to observe guests from a distance to ensure client safety.

Q. Can I still get changed in my indoor pool room now the doors are glass?
A.

No. All guests will now be required to use the outdoor changing cabins or separate changing facilities located across the hallway from the indoor pools. These have recently been upgraded as part of the redevelopment.

Q. You say your day spa is the best in Queenstown – why is this?
A.

At Onsen, we are very proud of the boutique retreat and day spa experience that we provide. Our newly expanded day spa facility now allows us to offer an extensive range of relaxation and pampering packages that are second to none in the region.

Soaking in our tranquil cedar hot tubs for 45 minutes before your treatment means that you are more relaxed by the time you get on the massage table and this makes the face or body treatment more effective.

Q. How many people can you accommodate in your day spa rooms?
A.

Our newly developed day spa rooms can accommodate up to 2 people at a time for couples’ massages and facials.

Q. What products do you use for your massages and facial treatments?
A.

Our therapists are highly qualified to deliver a range of both relaxation and deep tissue massages as well as facial treatments for women and men, using Pure Fiji and Herb Farm products. We also have a Coconut Oil based oil which is suitable for people with nut allergies.

Q. Can I just get a massage/facial only?
A.

Our Hot pools are a key element in our unique boutique retreat and day spa offering. Soaking in our tranquil cedar hot tubs for 45 minutes before your treatment means that you are more relaxed by the time you get on the massage table which in turn makes the face or body treatment more effective, so we do not offer any massage/facial only packages.

Q. How old must you be to get a massage?
A.

You must be 12 years and older to enjoy a massage at Onsen Retreat & Day Spa. Note: All massages are charged at the adult rate regardless of age.

Q. Do you use oils for your massages?
A.

Depending on the treatment you request, guests can choose from either Pure Fiji or Herb Farm oils, balms and salts products. We also have a Coconut Oil based oil which is suitable for people with nut allergies.

Q. Can I have my treatment before my soak?
A.

No. Our Hot pools and tubs are a key element in our unique boutique retreat and day spa offering. Soaking in our tranquil cedar tubs for 45 minutes before your treatment means that you are more relaxed by the time you get on the massage table which in turn makes the face or body treatment more effective. This is why all our soak and spa experiences have been designed to follow this order.
