Splash e Spa Tamaro — Attraction in Circolo di Taverne

I was not aware of this place and got to find it coincidentally yesterday and today we went there immediately with my kids. We bought the tickets beforehand to make sure we have our spot. The tickets are being sold upon availablity which I think is a great system. Like this they avoid overcrowding the pools. The person at the entrance was very kind and helpful with our check-in. The changing rooms are nice, large, bright enough but also discreet enough with a massive number of lockers. There are hair dryer stations with enough dryers. The big pools are on the top floor. One pool is with tidal wave which 8 guess starts every 30 minutes and lasts for 10-15 minutes. There are also outdoor pools with bubble sessions and the best pool is the one with a bar where you can sit in a warm pool and sip your drink. There is also a restaurant with proper food, not jumk food. For instance we had a plate of rice with chicken curry and a plate of lasagne. One floor below you can walk to the slides. Great slides! Single slides, single slides with a mat, doubles slides and one slide for up to four people. The explanations by the slides are very detailed and understandable for everyone. The Spa part we have not visited but it seems like it's a big area. What you also find on the top floor is an area for little kids and a hammam. To be honest it was a great day in a great...

Good experience with a little thing that should be changed. Friendly staff, the woman at the entrance even spoke good English! Enough parking space (1fr per hour, 5fr max), and enough beds to put down the towels. We visited the swimming pools and slides, but there is also a separate spa area! The slides are awesome! 7 different ones, most are exciting for most ages (small children are not allowed in some slides). Everything is clean. At the entrance you get a small wristband that you can use to pay for drinks and food (a lot to choose from), it is also used to open/close your locker. One small thing: no staff is present at the top of the stairs, where all more exciting slides are. Sometimes there are traffic jams, which could have been solved easily by someone from the staff. And when the elevator that brings the yellow bands to the top was broke for half an hour, no one came up to explain. So we stood there waiting for nothing. Tip: the standard time to visit is 4 hours, but extending your visit is only 2fr per person per half hour, so it's not...

Thoroughly enjoyed my experience here today. I spent most time in the Spa area, a very impressive facility with several sauna types, a hamam area and a huge relaxation area with gentle music and sounds to complete the mood. Everything was very clean and well organised; staff made regular checks that all was well, and in the clay sauna a member of staff performed an "aufguss" ritual with scented oils and music (Enya!) - great fun. Everyone in the spa area today was respectful of the rule to be quiet, which made it extremely relaxing. I paid CHF 59.50 for a whole day, which included the spa and splash areas, as well as towel and gown hire. I note that a few people have commented on the price but I think it is pretty good value really - given the quality of the facility, the attentive staff, the cleanliness and the amount of energy it must take to heat the saunas and maintain the water purification systems. Based on today, I would most definitely...
