Newly refurbished sauna at AC Baths now open

Darren Petry from Taupō District Council

The sauna area at the AC Baths reopened today, following an extensive makeover to create a better experience for users.

The sauna area has been refurbished as part of ongoing upgrades to the AC Baths facilities and includes an upgraded sauna as well as a mobility toilet and shower and additional open area showers.

Facilities manager Darren Penketh said the addition of these facilities has created better accessibility for users.

“The new sauna area is a huge improvement to the pool area and provides the public with a better experience than before.

“The mobility toilet has a shower for better accessibility, and we’ve created new open area showers for users to cool off after a sauna,” Mr Penketh said.

The project was completed by Watts Construction and cost about $30,000. It was included as part of the Long Term Plan 2018/28.

Access to the sauna is strictly 18 years of age or older.

Sauna opening hours are:
- Weekdays: 6am – 8:30pm
- Weekends and public holidays: 7am – 6:30pm

Entry to the sauna is included as part of the pool entry fee.

An Auckland court has ruled a woman doesn’t have to contribute towards the cost of fixing a driveway she shares with 10 neighbours.

When thinking about fences, driveways or tree felling, for example, do you think all neighbours should have to pay if the improvements directly benefit them?
