If you love the idea of having your own hot tub but don’t have the space or can’t afford a permanent fixture then have a portable inflatable hot tub might be just the thing. You can place it anywhere on a flat surface (although preferably outside unless you have a large waterproof place inside your home) that will hold its weight. Then you can come home and relax in the warm bubbles of an evening and relax in total bliss.

And since they are portable you can also take them on holiday or to a friend’s house if they are having a party so you can enjoy the water anywhere you like. And if you ever move house then it’s a very simple matter of emptying them and packing them up to take to your new home. In fact once deflated and folded up they fit easily into a small box.

Because they don’t need plumbing, just a garden hose to fill them up, you have many more options of where you can place them. Inside they work similar to regular hot tubs with water jets that massage and relax you.

You can add chemicals to the water of your inflatable hot tub to keep the water clean and clear although it is important to get the right ones. Check your local pool and spa supply shop to see what range they have available.

To inflate them all you need the automatic pump that they come with (or you can get them at your pool supply store) and turn it on and within a few minutes your new spa will be inflated.

Many doctors and therapists actually recommend relaxation in a hot tub or Jacuzzi as a way to relax and reduce stress. It’s proven that the water jets do massage any tight muscles and relieve tension leading to a healthier mind and body.

Of course the best thing about inflatable hot tubs is the price. You can get some models as low as $600 up to a few thousand which is a lot more economical than larger permanent models that run in to many thousands of dollars.

They are very durable and are unlikely to pop or tear with regular use, and they even have been known to survive treatment by the roughest kids and men in the family.

And what a great fun way to entertain family and friends by inviting them around for a dip on your new inflatable hot tub.
