If you’ve begun exploring your various options, you may have wondered what the best hot tubs are, and you’re not alone in that.

Finding your dream spa should be a stress-free experience, and the only way to ensure that happens is to have as much information as possible.

So we’re going to give you everything you need!

In this article, we will break down some of the most important things to know before you buy your hot tub and explore six of the best hot tubs on the market this year that can easily fit a range of lifestyles.

Let’s find your perfect spa!

What To Know About Hot Tubs Before Buying

Buying a hot tub is an investment, and choosing the right one is essential.

After all, it’ll be massaging your aching muscles for the next decade (or more!)

When you first begin looking at all the hot tubs on the market, there are some things you’ll want to be aware of first.

Different Hot Tub Sizes

Hot tubs come in various sizes, with the smallest ones fitting two to three people, while the largest ones can fit up to eight!

While you may think a larger size means a bigger price tag, that’s not always the case.

Sundance®️ Spas have broken down their hot tubs into various series, making it easier to stick to a budget without having to compromise on size.

One thing you’ll want to do before you start looking for your spa is choose which size would be best.

You can do this by considering two factors:

  1. Who would you like to share your spa with?
  2. How much space do you have to work with?

One of the most influential of the two will be the size of your backyard.

While you may love the idea of inviting your entire family over to jump in the spa, if you have a small backyard, you’ll need to find a model that will fit in your space without crowding it.

Hot Tub Appearances

Hot tubs come in all kind of shapes and sizes.

While the standard shape will be square or rectangular, others, like the Denali®️, will be round, maximizing how many people you can share your spa with without needing a large space.

Your hot tub’s appearance will also be influenced by its cabinet.

Each Sundance®️ Spas series has a cabinet that’s unique to the spas within, not only giving you flexibility with your budget and size but also with the impression your spa makes.

Each cabinet will not only have its own style but also come in various colours, making it possible to easily find one to fit your aesthetic.

Your shell can also impact your spa’s appearance, with many models offering various shell colours, ranging from Midnight black to the pristine white of Porcelain.

Hot Tub Features

Each hot tub model will have a base set of features and often include a few optional features you could opt to add on if they’re important to you.

The features of your hot tub can make or break your experience with your spa, so choosing one with the right features for you is vital.

For example, some models include lounge seating that offers a full body massage, which may be something you can’t imagine your hot tub not having.

Alternatively, you may want specific jet configurations or styles to target the muscles that cause you the most pain.

Some models include specialty seats and jet designs to optimize the massage experience.

Considering the features you wouldn’t want to go without in your spa will help narrow down your options.

Some features you may want to consider include:

  • The SmartTub™️ Water Management System
  • SunScents®️ Aromatherapy
  • The Accu-Ssage Seat
  • LED Lighting
  • Jetted Footwells
  • Waterfalls

Before you buy your hot tub, create a list of your “must-have” features so that you don’t miss out on the ones you need most.

Hot Tub Cost

Hot tubs have a wide range of price tags, and your budget will play an important role in the hot tub you choose.

The good news is that many dealerships offer financing options to make it more affordable for you to buy your dream spa without compromising on features or size.

The cost of your hot tub will be more than just the cost of the physical unit. Some other costs you’ll need to consider include the:

  • Installation, such as your foundation
  • Monthly energy costs
  • Cost of your water treatment products

You’ll need to consider the cost of installation, like your foundation cost, the monthly energy costs, and how much you’ll be spending on your treatment products.

To make breaking this down more easily, consider what you can afford each month, and work alongside a dealership to find the model that both has the features you need and fits within that monthly budget.
