Mini Hot Tubs – Our Best Small Hot Tubs

When you’re thinking of a mini hot tub – what comes to mind? Cramped space? No room to move? Too small, too expensive? Our best small hot tubs can comfortably fit two people, cost a fraction of what a larger hot tub costs and take up very little space! You win all around. Now stop waiting and get to living!

When it comes to hot tubs, most people think of large tubs that can fit up to six to eight people. However, what many people don’t know is that there are also small hot tubs available on the market. These “mini hot tubs” can be a great investment for your home. They are perfect for one, two, or three people, and they offer many benefits that you and your family will enjoy!

So, why would you want a mini hot tub? Let’s look at the different benefits a smaller hot tub can provide.

Small Hot Tub Benefits

They Are Affordable

One of the best things about small hot tubs is that they are affordable. Let’s be honest, mini hot tubs don’t require as much material to make. They are also easier to transport. These two things alone make them more affordable. When you take into consideration that a hot tub made for 1-3 people also requires fewer parts, it makes sense that you can find smaller high-end hot tubs at affordable prices.

They Are Portable

Another great thing about mini hot tubs is that they are more portable. While they are still not easy to move, they are much easier to relocate than their larger counterparts. This is a great option for those who want the benefits of a hot tub, but perhaps they move regularly for work or are planning a move a year or so down the road. 

Good on you for thinking ahead! You don’t want to wait to enjoy a routine soak. You just buy the right hot tub and move it with you when you go. A small tub can be the perfect way to make your new house feel like a home. Bring your memories and be prepared to make new ones! You never know, that night sky might look a little different where you’re going!

Less Chemicals

Spa chemicals can get pricey over time. When you invest in a smaller hot tub that fits your needs, you’ll be taking advantage of not needing to purchase as many chemicals. The smaller nature of the hot tub means you’ll need to add fewer chemicals to treat your water. Over time, this will save you a lot of money and time!

We all love to save time and money!

They Are Energy Efficient

Mini hot tubs are also very energy efficient. This means that you won’t have to worry as much about your electric bill. They also heat up quicker. Their smaller size means there isn’t as much water to heat up. This also saves you money on your water bill since you won’t have to use as much during the initial fill and subsequent fills that need to be done after maintenance drains. 

Keeps life nice and simple. More time to just enjoy.

They can be just right for your needs

Smaller hot tubs can be perfect for people with specific needs. If you know your tub won’t have many users, then you are a perfect candidate. For example, if you’re getting a tub specifically for you and your spouse to relax in on the weekends, you won’t need to spend money on a big 6-person spa. You would be fine with a 2-3 person model. Romance ready :)

Small hot tubs are also great for people who are just seeking the benefits of hydrotherapy. If you’re an athlete just seeking out the performance and recovery benefits a home spa can offer, then you could potentially just purchase a 1-2 person spa and save money. The same is true for people looking to get a spa for medical purposes. A 2-person hot tub offers the same relief for aching joints or a stiff back that a large 7-person spa does.

Whether you’re just looking to recover after a hard session on the exercise bike or to relieve the aches and pains of the week before bed on a Friday afternoon, these mini hot tubs have you covered. Get the relaxation and hydrotherapy you need at a fraction of the price. You can even still have room for a guest or two!

So, if you’re considering adding a hot tub to your home, be sure to consider a small mini hot tub. They may be just right for you and will offer many benefits that you and your family will love.
