Ocean Spa to close for eight weeks as Council takes over operations
Necessary repair work is the first ‘must-do’ at Ocean Spa when Napier City Council takes over ownership of the facility this week.
From Wednesday, February 1, Ocean Spa, Ocean Club Gym and The Bach Cafē will be managed and operated by the Council.
Thunes Cloete, Executive Director of Community Services, says it’s important the public understands that critical maintenance needs to happen at the pool complex ahead of any aesthetic upgrades.
“What’s going to happen when the doors are closed is essential remedial maintenance and upgrades. Much of the work will take place in areas the public won’t see but it will be very important for reliability and safety reasons.”
“It’s important to us, as the new caretakers of this wonderful and much-loved destination, that we provide a clean, safe, and modern facility everyone can enjoy. To do this safely, all facilities will need to be closed for a short period of time. We’ll get each area open again as soon as we can.”
Ocean Club Gym will be closed from February 1 - 8, the Bach Cafē will be closed from February 1 - 27 and Ocean Spa Pools will be closed for at least eight weeks.
