★★★★★Featured review by Theeija Leewes

Our year 4, 5 and 6 students attended Otahuhu Pool and Leisure Centre as an end of year treat over a period of three days. This was a substantial amount of students, teachers and parent helpers to accomodate. Amy and her crew were absolutely amazing with the organisation for this special event. For many of the students it was their first time visiting the Otahuhu Pools. Their feedback was that it was an epic trip and one of the best ones they have ever been on. This was due to a lot of organisation on behalf of Amy and the fabulous crew who made this a special day. Thank you to all. You're awesome. Hopefully, it will become an end of the year tradition.

🏆 Family Action Verdict

Families spanning toddlers to adults all find their pool here — one regular commutes from Manurewa specifically for the toddler area, and older kids claim the bombing pool as their own. The free entry and generous range of facilities make it a reliable full-day swim destination.

All my children loved it and they range from 21 to 2. There is a spa and sauna that cost less then $5 person other wise everything else is free. There is a diving/bombing pool that the older ones loved to a baby pool with a slide and fun water play fountains everything is safe as there are lots of life gards makimg sure everyone is safe. Was very clean and tidy. Also has family changing rooms so makes it easier for a family with small children. And the water isnt too cold. Overall it is a great place to go for a swim.

The Otahuhu Pool and Leisure Centre is my go to facility for my one-year-old, primarily due to its uniquely featured toddler pool area. I commute from Manurewa to this center, and the bombing pool always keeps my older children entertained also. The facilities are consistently clean, and I have never encountered any issues; the staff are always cheerful and helpful. Thank you so much Team. Always look forward to my visits.

Great family outing. It does get busy but there is plenty of parking. Staff are friendly and lifeguards are good at watching out for the public. Making sure patrons adhere to the rules and keeping everyone safe.
