1B Warner Road, Oropi, Tauranga, Bay Of Plenty

Business and Lifestyle Retreat

The foundations are set - now it’s time to write the next chapter of the iconic Oropi Hot Pools.

Known today as Smallgusta after opening in September 2023 (the nine hole mini golf), this established and much-loved hot pools have been a fixture in the Bay of Plenty for nearly 30 years. With its memorable lagoon pool, private spas and picturesque setting, its no surprise this once ‘hidden gem’ has now stepped into the spotlight.

The vendors are the third owners of the hot pools since 1997, and over the last 5 years have dedicated themselves to significant improvements and navigated New Zealand’s economic obstacles to ensure the business is now fully compliant, consented for the future and ready for the next visionary to reap the benefits.

The once seasonal business now boasts the world’s only 1:10 scale putting course, drawing national attention, as seen on Seven Sharp, the Black Clash, One Roof and NZ Herald, to give year-round revenue, enable corporate events and a summer boost to the licensed café. The result being a multi revenue stream operation, with still more room for growth.

Despite being under five minutes from city limits, the views suggest otherwise at this private haven, with seven significant peaks (including Mauao and immaculate historic pa sites) to steal the eye, the golf course, garden bar and sheltered pavilions have the very best of the vista. The sprawling lawn lends itself to gatherings from weddings to birthday parties with licensed catering facilities able to take care of the masses.

The charming lifestyle property includes a four-bedroom house that has been used as the owner’s lodging since the business’ conception. Semi-portable cabin-like buildings (x3) can be utilised as one wishes and storage isn’t an issue with large sheds and garaging. A large overflow carpark for motorhomes and buses is a new addition to the property and doubles the existing carparking.

With urban development edging closer and higher volumes of commuter traffic, this location offers strong potential for new ideas from wellness retreats, glamping, events and additional tourism offerings.

The vendors are motivated for their next adventure and to spend more time with their children. This is your chance to add another chapter to the properties history and see it reach its potential.
