"Rotorua - feel the spirit - Manaakitanga". It's our catchcry . . . and it holds a pretty powerful promise as well as an invitation to experience the essence of our extraordinary slice of New Zealand.
A deep-rooted Maori cultural concept, Manaakitanga places a responsibility on us as your hosts to give you the best of ourselves, our time and our history.
A feeling you'll return home with, Manaakitanga begins the moment you arrive in Rotorua whether seeking adventure, rejuvenation, experiences with nature and earth forces, or soaking up Maori and European history, art and culture.
Rotorua - it's like no other place on earth.
Arrive in Rotorua and you immediately know you are somewhere like nowhere else. The distinctive smell of sulphur together with lazy drifts of steam escaping into the air let you know you are in Rotorua, N.Z. Just minutes from city centre hissing geysers, scaling water, bubbling mud and sinter formations provide more evidence of our incredible earth forces.
Rotorua's reputation as a natural spa destination dates back 160 years. Traditional mineral pools, so relaxing after a day of sightseeing or adventure, are still firm favourites. Options for today's visitors seeking relaxation, revitalisation and rejuvenation can also include a wide range of health, beauty and spa treatments based on local mineral and geothermal resources.
