Coast Spas Classic Element B 50

Seats 8

WhatSpa? Verdict

A favourite in the Coast Spas line up, the Classic Element B 50 is a versatile all-seater. With multi-level seating benefiting from bench-style seats (where you can swivel to lounge without a lounger taking up two seats in the spa), a higher cool down seat and wrap-around bucket seats, plus steps into the spa making this model perfect for all of the family. This spa also has a great hydrotherapy feature called 'tactile therapy' which are massage nodules in the bottom of the seats and the large footwell, these provide a kneading shiatsu massage effect. With a large footwell, backlit waterfalls, drinks holders and wrap-around headrests this model has it all!

HotSpring Spas Limelight Beam

Seats 4

WhatSpa? Verdict

As you would expect from the World's largest hot tub manufacturer, the HotSpring® Limelight® collection by Watkins Wellness® was a huge revelation from it's launch. The entire range was redesigned for 2018 and the Beam has quickly become the best selling compact all-seater in the range. Like its stable mates the Beam's contemporary ergonomics are simply stunning; with new designer styling not seen from any other manufacturer. A new indicator light on the cabinet even shows when the spa is ready to use. True to its name, the Limelight® Beam really comes into its own after dark with an amazing array of subtle lighting - a true showstopper!

RotoSpa QuatroSpa

Seats 5

WhatSpa? Verdict

The hugely successful QuatroSpa is manufactured here in the UK by Midlands-based company RotoSpa and is made by using a rotational moulding technique using a tough resin, which provides an extremely durable finish accented by attractive synthetic cabinetry. The reclining seat with 15-point ultra-blast jet and a considered functional massage system provides for maximum relaxation. The entry step offers easy access and also doubles as a child seat. It is deceptively spacious and fits through standard doors and gates. At under 13 amps it provides true plug-and-play convenience, just wheel it in, fill it up and plug and play!

Hydropool 670 Platinum

Seats 6

WhatSpa? Verdict

Canadian manufacturer Hydropool is one of the long-established names in the global hot tub market, with an extensive UK presence at high profile consumer shows and exhibitions throughout the year and a network of dealers across the UK. The 670 Platinum is one of Hydropool's best-selling models and is a spacious six-seater spa with unique features such as the 'self cleaning' floor drain system and dual pressurised filtration which cleanses 100 per cent of the water in under 15 minutes. The swivel seat lounger is ingenious and allows two people to lounge at the same time when there are five or less bathers. A rock solid performer!

HotSpring Spas Highlife Envoy

Seats 5

WhatSpa? Verdict

Just when we thought that spa design had reached it's zenith, HotSpring® has raised the bar again with it's market leading Highlife range. Designed in conjunction with BMW, the new Envoy® has taken contemporary spa design to the next level. The sculptured base gives the impression that the spa is sitting on legs, with integral corner lighting panels for added ambience. The new backlit Moto-Massage® DX lounger is superb and the backlit pillows, waterfalls and topside controls are stunning. If you are looking for a top-notch spa with the emphasis on sleek aesthetics, comfort and hydrotherapy, the new HotSpring® Envoy® has them all in spades!

Caldera Spas Vacanza Series Marino

Seats 6

WhatSpa? Verdict

Caldera Spas® is one of Watkins Wellness®' top flight stable of brands, and distributed in the UK by Certikin, one of the most respected names in the British swimming pool and spa industry. The multiple award-winning Marino is one of Caldera's top-selling models in the Vacanza Series. The Marino has a stylish ergonomically sculpted shell and roomy non-slip footwell. Barrier-free seating makes moving from seat to seat easy and finishing touches like the Acquarella waterfall ensure a sensory experience that is guaranteed to relax! Built in Spa Frog® tops off the package for easy water maintenance.
