Nestled within nature, experience the lush greenery around you as you retreat to the healing hot springs of Lost World of Tambun. The Lost World Hot Springs are open for use from daytime to night, so you can always drop by the pools in between attractions.
Each spring pool offers a unique experience, as it flows at a different temperature and is complete with its own features. From a quirky swim-up bistro, to a literal hot spring cavern, your experience here will surely beat any conventional hotel jacuzzis and saunas!
Saphira’s Lair
Saphira’s Lair is a hot spring pool specially designed for younger visitors. We recommend dropping by at night, as the area lights up with colourful decorations and lighting, illuminating the rainforest that surrounds the park. Children (or anyone at any age!) can spend quality time with their loved ones here, as they play around and soak up the healing properties of the water.
Saphira’s Bistro
Feeling a little hungry? You can now enjoy some light refreshments while soaking in the water at Saphira’s Bistro, a unique swim-up dining outlet situated in the hot spring pool. This bistro offers a healthy selection of food and drinks, from their signature salad, to a warm serving of chicken stew.
Find out what night-time attractions await you at the Lost World of Tambun Hot Springs & Night Park:
Infinity Pool
Missing the hot springs in Japan? Very much like the enjoyable outdoor onsen spas, the Infinity Pool is designed to function like a true spa and recreates the rejuvenating experience similar to those in Japan. This large-sized pool can fit up to 300 people and is accompanied by the serene sounds of a volcanic waterfall.
The Geyser Of Tambun
Watch in awe as The Geyser Of Tambun sprouts water 40 feet up from the hot springs below it. The geyser erupts every hour, so you can sit back and relax as you wait for its loud burst. It appears even more beautiful at night with subtle, yet enchanting lighting effects.
Crystal Falls
Head over to the Crystal Falls and witness thermal water splashing down into the hot spring pool below. Brace yourself as you face the thundering downpour of this unique hot spring waterfall, or just sit back in any of the surrounding three jacuzzi pools to enjoy as the water playfully splashes over you.
Crystal Pool
If there was an award for the prettiest hot spring pool, we’d give it to the Crystal Pool here. At the bottom of the Crystal Pool is its unique flooring, specially designed with crystal tiles that glimmer as they reflect the daytime sunlight. By night, the pool will be bathed in colourful lights as you take a relaxing dip here.
Want to celebrate something special? You can even reserve the beautiful Crystal Pool for any private occasion you have in mind!
Foot Spa

Take a calming walk through the Foot Spa, a unique pool with reflexology pebbles fitted at the bottom. Give your feet the ultimate soothing experience as you step on the different-sized pebbles while immersing them in the natural hot spring water.
Steam Cave
You can now experience a natural sauna here in hot springs, thanks to the unique Steam Cave. Due to its design and concept of hot spring waters inside a cavern, the Steam Cave acts as a sauna that promotes detoxification and encourages good blood circulation. However, like any other sauna, we recommend to not stay inside the cave for too long!
Top Of The World Pool
Take the stone steps up and around the Steam Cave (be careful as it can get quite slippery!), and you’ll find the Top Of The World Pool that sits right at the top of the Lost World Hot Springs Park. This round jacuzzi pool is complete with strong water jets that pampers you with a therapeutic hydro-massage, relaxing your muscles in the process.
Lost World Crystal Spa
If you want to take your self-pamper up a notch, the Crystal Spa here is worth a visit. Cap off the night with one of their invigorating and de-stressing massages and you’ll be guaranteed to walk out rejuvenated and relaxed.

Here, you can take your pick between their aromatherapy massages or a head and shoulders massage, as well as a unique hot spring spa treatment. Our favourite part is that the massage session would be held in your very own dedicated massage hut, where you’ll get all the privacy and comfort that you require.
