The therapeutic waters at Polynesian Spa originate from two distinct natural springs:
The Priest Spring is named after Father Mahoney, a Catholic Priest who was ‘cured’ of severe arthritis by bathing in the waters in 1878. The slightly acidic water from the Priest Spring helps relieve tired muscles, aches, and pains.
The Rachel Spring provides alkaline water, known for the antiseptic properties of sodium silicate that nourish the skin. Historically, it was believed that those who bathe in the Rachel Spring waters are granted ageless beauty.
This unique combination of mineral waters is exclusive to Polynesian Spa.
The Pavilion Pools Ticket grants access to 8 mineral pools with varying temperatures from both acidic and alkaline mineral springs.
