OLantis Huntebad - ErlebnisWelt in Oldenburg (Oldb)

Beautiful leisure pool with convenient parking under the highway. Half-price admission with a disabled person's pass.

Superb saunas, we come here often. The best are the infusions 😄 friendly staff.

Very disappointing. We had to cut short our visit because the police suddenly closed the parking lot – without warning, alternative parking spaces, or clear instructions. Guests were only informed shortly before the closure at the pool, not at the entrance. The only available spaces were in the overcrowded court area. Having to rush out of the pool with the whole family was sheer madness. We used the pool and the sauna – the relaxation was completely gone afterward. The staff seemed overwhelmed and unfriendly given the situation!

Only recommended if you're deliberately not looking to relax, are looking for a playground with your entire family, or just want to chill out with your phone. This isn't a sauna, it's a bad joke.

A truly beautiful place to relax 😊 I'll definitely be going to the sauna more often now, despite the hour-long drive. The swimming area is also great; everything is clean and tidy. The saunas, infusions, and general relaxation are not neglected here. The staff always know their stuff and know what they're doing. 💪 Highly recommended. 🙏

Pure relaxation. Very pleasant. Even the extended opening hours on Saturdays

Water below 30 degrees a bit too cold

The sauna was nicer before the renovation. We were there on October 4, 2025. There was an event, and it was extremely crowded at times. We only participated in the infusions in the event sauna, and even there, there was just pushing and shoving at the entrance. And it was really crowded. Sauna is for relaxation, and you pay an extra fee for the infusions. It was too crowded to participate. It's better to go to the saunas in the surrounding area.

The people who work at the swimming pool aren't nice. Yesterday, I and my children were treated with racism because I wear a hijab.

Very nice sauna and friendly staff!

For us, it's always worth a trip. The individual saunas, the staff, the food, and the overall value for money are all excellent! We'd be happy to come back! B & G

A beautiful swimming pool with a good wellness and sauna area.

Very clean and well-maintained, the staff is dedicated and friendly, and I highly recommend it for relaxation and recuperation! Pure wellness!

The water is a comfortable temperature, even for small children, and my kids love swimming there. Unfortunately, it's sometimes very crowded, and on weekends, the men's and women's changing rooms are open to all genders, which has caused me a few uncomfortable situations.

We were at Olantis on September 27, 2025. At 6 p.m., when we participated in the "Music Express" infusion in the event sauna, the sauna guests were sprinkled with ice chips at the end. The sauna master then swept the rest of the ice from the bowl over the guests. Apparently, there was still a large piece of ice in the bowl, which hit me on the head. I find this action irresponsible and would have hoped for at least an apology. Because it didn't go unnoticed by him. I will not visit this sauna again.

The sauna is (partially) new and really nice. The food is great.

Many areas are closed (whirlpools, plunge pools, earth sauna), the infusions are only lukewarm, and the experience is lacking. The canteen closes early, but the price is still full. It used to be great, but today it's unfortunately disappointing.

We were at Olantis for the first time in a long time, and I think it was probably the last time. Prices are okay, despite the adjustments. But they could use some improvement. Due to the relatively small bathing areas, it quickly feels too crowded. Relaxing splashing around, etc., is out of the question. The staff could be a bit friendlier. It's very uncomfortable when the lifeguards approach you. The biggest drawback, however, are the shower and changing areas. Three family cabins are far too few on a busy Sunday. There was always a line at the family showers. The fixtures and fittings are in dire need of replacement, and the cleanliness is also poor. All in all, it was a disappointing visit to the pool.

It's difficult to find the first time you're there. A 3-hour sauna session costs €24, etc. I don't need to go there again.

Great swimming pool! Finally, a place for all ages! Also easily accessible by car from Bremen.

Beautiful new sauna area. Perfect for relaxing and recuperating.

Generous breakfast Friendly staff We'll be back

We've visited this swimming pool often, especially recently with our child. I've always found the entrance fee a bit expensive, but after the price increase, I'll be avoiding the pool. The restrooms always smell strongly of urine, and today we noticed that it also had a very unpleasant smell in other areas. I don't even want to talk about the condition of the pools (verdigris and broken tiles). The catering area has been renovated, but the prices are too high for the children, and the food isn't particularly good either. The children's/baby pool felt just as cold as the others. There was a class taking place where the music was very loud, which was annoying. There are very few shady spots in the outdoor pool, so you're out of luck with children if there are no spaces left.

Depending on the time of day, the clientele, unfortunately seen in the media at public pools, is monitored by the security guards now deployed. Otherwise, a well-maintained and, despite being 20 years old, modern pool, which, even after the price increase in September, is still the cheapest in the region. Highly recommended sauna area!

I like going there and the sauna. All I can say is that it's beautifully designed, and the staff is great. I'd include photos, but cell phones aren't allowed in the sauna, which is fine. I can't show any pictures either. 😁

Everything is perfect here. Pure relaxation.

The sauna complex itself is very nice. The clientele is also very pleasant. Unfortunately, the positive impression is greatly tarnished by the catering facilities in the sauna complex. We ate and drank there for the last time today. The food is not fresh. The homemade mayonnaise is spoiled; the dishes taste of nothing, and you can immediately tell they're frozen. There's no seasoning, not even salt and pepper. The spritzers are so diluted that they taste like dishwater. Very high prices for cheap products. A real shame for the entire complex.

Nice pool, but unfortunately a bit crowded. But that's not Olantis' fault. The sauna was also very relaxing and stylishly designed.

I went to the XXL family sauna today with my daughter and my parents, and I was absolutely thrilled! There was so much on offer for the kids. A huge thank you to Peter Pan and Minnie Mouse, who clearly put so much effort into putting on this amazing event!

We had breakfast at the Leuchtturm this weekend. It was our first time there, and I have to say, the breakfast was super delicious and fresh. The buffet is very varied and plentiful. The staff greets you very warmly and shows you where to sit. We'll definitely be back :-)

It was an absolutely horrible experience. Nothing worked and the staff couldn't handle even the simplest tasks. The staff made so many mistakes and gave wrong information that we were not allowed to use the sauna even though we had paid for it. Never Olantis Huntebad again

Big group went here to have fun and use the sauna. Turns out, after we paid for around 40 people, that the entire sauna and spa was only for families that day. Pretty disappointing, ended up arguing with the staff because we payed for the Spa but weren’t allowed to use it. Also pretty small for the amount of people there. Wouldn’t recommend going to Olantos.

One of the worst places i have ever been👎

Today we attended the "Family Sauna" event for the second time. This time, we even had the XXL version, and we were thrilled again. The team made this visit unforgettable; so much passion and love went into the infusions, and the interaction with the children was simply fantastic! We really enjoyed the XXL version, and even as a parent, I have to say, you leave the infusions with a big smile and unforgettable memories. Truly fantastic, and a huge compliment to the team for the idea and the beautiful execution. We would be delighted if the XXL version were to be held more often.

We went to the family sauna event today, and it was truly wonderful! The team went to great lengths to ensure the children had fun and enjoyed the day. A great idea for introducing children to the sauna. We'd love to come back.

Awful service, archaic company system where no one communicates with each other... First of all, we had to wait 1½ hours from the entrance until we could enter, as the IT system for lockers and spa had gone into lock down, and no one dared to make a decision, resulting in a mindless wandering from counter to counter, like another Asterix and the Romans... Before someone finally took the initiative Then it turns out that we weren't allowed to enter the sauna anyway, due to a children's event; we were promised a refund for that part, but the four of us who managed to use the sauna for ~10 minutes, they suddenly wouldn't refund when we were leaving. On the positive side, the food was okay in the swimming pool itself, and that the staff generally had good English skills. The cafe at the entrance, however, runs like "oiled" in solidified cement: It's almost impressive, because it seems as if they've made a brave, conscious effort to be able to make a bike run so slowly

What a shame. The right hand doesn't know what the left hand is doing. Our group had a very negative experience at Olantis today – you ruined our entire day. The way you treated guests was unprofessional and demonstrated a lack of service skills. Such an experience is absolutely unacceptable to us. We cannot recommend Olantis for groups under any circumstances.

Terrible experience. First of all the customer service was horrible and they charged a higher price and would not refund afterwards. In the dressing room there was pieces of glass and lots of hair. And the place it self was boring and small

Terrible place!! The water is unhygienic and visibly dirty. Far, far, far too many people, and complete chaos. The queues for the slides are very long, and they seem to be of poor quality. The staff are horrible. We booked with spa access. We were given wristbands for the spa and wellness, but when we entered the water park and then went into the wellness area, we were suddenly told that we couldn’t use it because it was a kids’ weekend. When we asked if we could get a refund, we were told no, because we had already passed through the door to wellness – even though we didn’t use it. I strongly recommend that nobody ever visits this place. It’s for your own good!

It was a really bad experience and their service was really bad.. we had an agreement with them about a huge team and they didn't take a student discount and we had promised a discount

We visited SaunaWorld again today. Normally, we have nothing to complain about and feel comfortable, but what annoyed us again today was the fact that some selfish people think they can reserve the loungers and beds in the relaxation rooms by simply leaving their towels and souvenirs on them while they enjoy their sauna session. Wool blankets are also being hoarded. More attention should definitely be paid to this, and a stop should be put to it.

Very good 👍🏻 service. Very nice and friendly staff.

Fantastic saunas, cool infusions, friendly staff, and a lovely atmosphere.

It was great! We were there on a Thursday afternoon at 4 p.m. It wasn't crowded, and it's quite pleasant there, but the changing rooms and other things are very unhygienic...

Friendly staff, very good breakfast, great ambience

Olantis Wellness Area Oldenburg Very good couples massage. 30 minutes of pure relaxation. The staff there were very professional, friendly, and pleasantly calm. They didn't speak to each other during the session, so we were able to completely relax. We had a great time. At the end, they kindly asked if we'd like some tea or water. We'd be happy to come back.

The food and service were perfect. We felt very comfortable.

On the phone with ARYAN, as soon as I started with the topic, the nice employee hung up!!!!

I really liked OLantis. There are two large swimming pools (one indoor and one outdoor), two pools for chilling (one indoor and one outdoor), and a small baby pool. You can also use the sauna and treat yourself to a massage. It was very clean. Unfortunately, you can only have a coffee on Fridays from 3 p.m. onwards during the week. I would have liked to have a salad, but that didn't happen because the man in the kitchen told me and the other bathers that no one had come. That didn't go down well, of course, and that's why it's losing one star. I paid €7 for 3 hours, but as an adult you can also get a day pass for €8.

Over the weekend, my son and I were at the swimming pool, where I was teaching him how to swim. The pool staff approached us. They were polite and helped my son learn to swim.

FYI: I'm only reviewing the indoor area of ​​the pool. The Olantis Huntebad is generally a very solid swimming pool. The entrance prices are fair, and the facilities are generally good. There are various pools, diving boards, and slides. The pool is also quite clean compared to other pools. The only problem is that the lifeguards don't really ensure that the sports area is used only by competitive swimmers. As a result, there are sometimes small children splashing around where you'd like to do laps. For competitive swimmers, I would recommend visiting outside of peak hours. For everyone else, there aren't really any "wrong" times to visit.

It offers a lot for the low admission price, especially in warm weather, even outdoors. There are three great indoor slides, which are a real highlight for kids. Although everything is older, it's well-maintained. The staff were very friendly and helpful.

Nice swimming pool. Price could be lower. Always busy. Otherwise nice.

Lots of great slides and almost non-stop aqua fitness options.

We've been to the Leuchtturm breakfast buffet several times. It's always been excellent! There's a huge selection at reasonable prices. The staff is very friendly and attentive, and the decor is inviting. We've just participated in a barbecue event for the first time, and it was truly fantastic. We'll definitely be back and recommend it without reservation.

A great family pool. The landscape for the little ones is lovingly designed. For older children, the slides are a great adventure. The outdoor area is also very nice.

Why do you pay full admission when the beginner swimmers' area is ALWAYS closed? Or rather, you get kicked out for classes that run one after the other without a break. It's a lot of work planning and executing a pool visit as a family. Then you get there, and the kids just can't learn to swim. Thank you very much. We waited for a class. We were able to go in for five minutes. Then we were chased away again.

Cheap and lots of options, staff are active!

I've been to the Olantis sauna many times and have always spent relaxing and restful days there. Unfortunately, not this time. The new 10-minute rule is a disaster. I was in the sauna for 6 hours and spent almost an hour standing in line. Take the Polder Hütt, for example: I lined up 15 minutes before the infusion (to get a good spot), and after a few minutes it started to rain heavily – wet hair – wet bathrobe – cold feet (is that healthy?). Then everyone rushes in at once, creating a huge rush and commotion. When I imagine standing half-naked in the cold in sub-zero temperatures in winter – no thanks. It worked perfectly for years without this 10-minute rule. If this doesn't change, the Olantis sauna will no longer be usable for me. I imagine relaxation, peace, and recovery differently.

Yes, I recommend it. Everything's fine. Lots of choice. Just games and fun.

The canteen is delicious! The kids had a lot of fun.

Nice swimming pool, the prices are really fair at least as of August 2025

Completely overcrowded. Kids jump all over your head. We paid €4 for a French fry and waited in line for half an hour. Disaster! Never again.

Big disappointment in the sauna! At the beginning of June, my girlfriend and I went back to the sauna at Olantis for the first time since the renovations, after a long break. Before every sauna session, there were long lines outside, sometimes outside in the rain and very cold temperatures. And this could last for at least 15 minutes. Then, after the staff opened the previously locked sauna door, everyone rushed to the benches at once. As a result, because it was regularly overcrowded, I had involuntary physical contact with strangers on both sides during the sauna session and had to remain in a completely tense posture. In the hustle and bustle, my girlfriend snagged a seat at least 2-3 meters away from me. This has nothing to do with rest and relaxation. I'm a long-time sauna-goer and have been to many different saunas, including in Germany, but I've never experienced such a procedure before. Before the renovation, this wasn't the case, and the sauna was always worth a visit. Unfortunately, not anymore. I wonder how all the other saunas manage it. The reason given for this practice is that guests often collapse. But I haven't experienced that anywhere myself. You can generally experience circulatory problems at any time in the sauna, even if you sit too long after the infusion. After all, it was at least June despite the inclement weather. It's even more unreasonable for guests to wait outside in winter, wearing only a bathrobe or towel, for health reasons, to be admitted. Moreover, the water in the outdoor pool in the sauna garden was so cold that we were happy not to use it. Too bad! But in the future, we'll probably drive a few kilometers further for an alternative.

A very nice outdoor pool with great slides that are a lot of fun. The outdoor area is well-maintained and offers plenty of space to relax or play. We were also pleasantly surprised by the food – fresh fries, delicious snacks, and fair prices. A great place for a relaxing summer.

Olantis Huntebad has been a strong partner of the Academy for Sport and Health since 2024. With a variety of courses offered around Bremen, including aqua fitness, we look forward to our future collaboration!

Actually a nice pool, but letting in at least three times as many people as the pool can handle when the outside temperature is 28 degrees is an imposition for everyone. The shower/dressing room is completely overcrowded and extremely dirty. A shame.

Yes, it's a lot of fun. The only thing is that the restaurant has very few food options; every time I go there, an offer is removed. That's why I always recommend bringing something to eat and drink.

Very dirty, swimming pool was blocked despite being closed off, extremely ignorant guests (for whom the operator cannot do anything)

Very nice, well-maintained bathroom. It's a shame you can no longer book the food service on your chip. It's very inconvenient with the money. The food service area could be cleaned more often. The same goes for the restrooms.

Cold, boring, dirty! I bought a day ticket for my son and me, but we left after just two hours. It was simply too cold there. I was afraid he'd catch a cold. Then I'd rather go to a thermal spa; at least it's warm there. The children's play area was okay, but overcrowded. We won't be coming back. It's a shame.

Refers to the sauna area. Very nice facility, both inside and out. A good selection of loungers. Unfortunately, the infusions took place in overcrowded saunas, even though there is a super-large infusion sauna. This was only used for infusions after 4 p.m. What a shame.

For a swimming pool in our region, this one offers a lot for the money. We bought a family ticket. Parents plus two children, ages 4 and 6. The toddler area is fenced off from the rest of the pool and is a good size. Nice slides, nice pools, whirlpool, and jets... Look online for a detailed list and pictures. The family ticket included the indoor and outdoor pools. We were there late Sunday morning, and it became noticeably busier after 2 p.m. The restrooms and showers are OK.

Beautiful thermal baths, well laid out

There were lots of clumps of hair floating in the water. It was way too crowded. Sorry, never again on vacation.

Warm indoor pool...clean and pleasant ...

A beautiful sauna area, perfect for relaxing and feeling good. We particularly enjoyed the panoramic sauna with its view of the Hunte River. The food was also excellent. The price/performance ratio for the entrance fee and the food is unbeatable.

Lovely pool with a great price. We went on a rainy day, so it was quite crowded. Three fun slides, one of which is a black category, which is fantastic. The food is quite pricey, and it was very cold in the restaurant due to an open door. Highly recommended for children of all ages. Note: be careful on the access road and park under the highway. If we're ever in the area again, we'll definitely come back.

A fantastic indoor pool. Lots of different pools. Everything is clean and in very good condition. The water is really warm. Ideal for those with frostbite and for swimming with beginners. I highly recommend it.

A nice water park in itself. However, it was far too crowded, and the showers and restrooms could use some renovation. The prices in the "restaurant" aren't exactly inviting for a meal. The prices at the water park itself are relatively reasonable. It was an interesting visit, but a second one isn't necessarily necessary.

The sauna is quite good, but it was a shame that the restaurant kitchen closes at 7:30 p.m.

Nice pool, but of course quite crowded during the holidays!

A disappointing first visit – unfortunately, also the last. We visited Olantis for the first time today – unfortunately, the result was rather disappointing. The pool itself generally makes a solid impression, and the entrance fee is perfectly reasonable. However, it was so crowded that relaxing in the water or playing was almost impossible. It was so crowded that you could barely move freely in the water. Since the food court seemed a bit quieter, we decided to take a break there first. The prices there really shocked us: €3.10 for a soft drink, €4.00 for a portion of fries, €5.00 for chicken nuggets, €6.00 for a currywurst, and a whopping €9.00 for a burger – that's simply not affordable for a family with several children. The sanitary facilities (showers and toilets) were also in rather questionable condition – which we attributed to the sheer number of visitors, but which we still found very unpleasant. All in all, our first visit was unfortunately also our last. We had hoped for a much more pleasant stay.

Unfortunately, I regretted another chance at this swimming pool. The baby pool was overcrowded with children between 8 and 10 years old, who more or less recklessly ran over the little ones, pushed them away, and there was no room for them. Nothing was said about this. Sad. But! The lifeguard told me that my swimwear wasn't allowed, which was the case. Sorry that she doesn't know what a swim skirt and matching top are. I asked her to touch it to see if it was swimwear. She refused. When I pointed out that I've never had any problems, even at the pool, she dismissed it, saying that my colleagues weren't doing their job. They obviously don't accept other cultures!!!!! That's more important than looking out for the well-being of the little ones. Never again at this pool!!!

Great sauna area, swimming pool is great for families. The food is of decent quality, but the prices are a bit too high in my opinion. If they were a bit lower, more guests would certainly order something. But I also understand that this isn't easy for everyone at the moment. But that's just my observation and personal opinion. Overall, the OLantis is always worth a stay.

We really enjoyed it; there was plenty of variety both inside and out, and everyone was very friendly. Highly recommended!

The pool is highly recommended; clean, with friendly and adequate staff. The food and drink options, however, are unfortunately absolutely terrible. I find it a bit cheeky to pay €4.50 for a handful of fries... we paid €38.80 for one (very small) burger, six nuggets without dip, three fries, and three small drinks... and then waited over 20 minutes... I've had a different experience at comparable pools. We'll definitely visit the pool again... but definitely never again for the food! The pool deserves 5 stars for us, but the food isn't even worth one star!

We were there today and were very disappointed. We left after 30 minutes. It was completely overcrowded, kids were jumping off the edge of the pool everywhere (sometimes from slippery walls), and their feet were landing in their faces. (The supervisor just watched and said nothing.) No consideration was shown, and stress was inevitable. Too bad, we probably won't be back.

Much too crowded. Mothers, fathers, etc. should not sit in the middle of the children's pool and stairs

Much better in nice weather, as it's easier to play outside. I like the slides, but the area is very confusing.

Very nice swimming pool and the price is right 👍

It was very nice there. We had a lot of fun.

Simply thrilled by the sauna world, the saunas, the ambiance, and especially all the staff. We've been to many sauna complexes in Germany, but such warm interaction with the guests, the explanations, and the dedication during the infusions were a dream that enchanted our vacation in the north. Whether it was a gentle infusion in the river sauna or the brew infusion in the Polter Hütte, Hannah sweetened our mornings with her good humor and dedication, despite the bad weather. When we head north from the Palatinate, we'll definitely plan a sauna day here. A thousand of the Palatinate residents anchored in LU. Unfortunately, we had to deduct one star because the first restaurant doesn't open until 12 p.m., and we would have liked to have had something cold and an espresso beforehand.

Beautiful day at the Olantis Huntebad in Oldenburg! We had a truly fantastic day at the Olantis! The pool is beautifully designed – I especially liked the river, which offers a great change of pace. The water was a bit murky, but that didn't spoil our fun at all. The entrance fee is absolutely fair, especially considering how much you can experience there. The kids had a blast, and it was simply lovely to spend time together in the fresh air. The indoor slides are also an absolute highlight. We'd definitely love to come back!

Two entries, no badge... My daughter's first attempt to have her bronze badge removed was spontaneous in the afternoon. I was fully understanding, but it wasn't possible at the time, but we were supposed to come back today at 9:30. I paid the entrance fee and then... super rude, no, that's not possible right now, we should take a break, and the colleague certainly doesn't have time either. On top of that, it was very unpleasant and unfriendly, OLantis, a dying service city. Certainly never again, no thanks!

A beautiful swimming pool, but completely overcrowded, with a long walk to the parking lot. We left late (4:30 p.m.), and it was quieter. It's nice that you can use both the indoor and outdoor pools. With a family day pass for €19.50, you can stay as long as you like.

A truly beautiful swimming pool that's fun with the kids even in bad weather. Unfortunately, everything positive also has its negative side. Waiting a good 45 minutes for your food (4 fries and 1 nugget) is way too long with hungry little ones. And dear guests, the changing rooms and hygiene areas wouldn't be so dirty if they were left clean. The poor cleaning staff are constantly working hard to get everything done!!!

The price for such a big city and what you get for it is great. Pools are nice, our daughter really enjoyed the kids' area, the slides were good, and the fact that you can also go to the outdoor pool with a day ticket is great. The food wasn't so great. We waited over an hour for fries, currywurst, and a burger. Some others even waited over 1.5 hours. The kitchen staff were completely overwhelmed. Someone was even crying in the kitchen. Receipts weren't processed in order. Total chaos. The pulled pork burger was also a joke. For €10, you got a small brioche bun with 50g of meat on it. Because there was nothing pulled. Apart from that, there was a tiny lettuce leaf on top. That's it. Conclusion: I would go swimming there again, but I'll definitely skip the obligatory pool fries in the future.

The swimming pool offers a lot for all ages.

We've been coming to the sauna and swimming pool for a long time. Everyone's been very good. However, for the past two or three years, our new residents have been repeatedly breaking the rules. Please stop this now. I know some who no longer come to swim for the reasons stated. You have to make clear announcements immediately, otherwise they'll be reprimanded very quickly. Just don't be afraid of these people!
