Watch our 2026 full review of the Platinum Spas Luxury Portofino, a flagship six-seater from the Platinum Spas Luxury Series, and now a WhatSpa? Best Buy Award winner.
In this experience-led review, Dave explores the Portofino’s sleek, modern design, from its spacious 2.3m footprint and illuminated cabinet accents to the premium interior lighting, water features, and high-end finish throughout.
With 66 adjustable jets powered by three dual-speed 3hp pumps, the Portofino delivers strong, well-balanced hydrotherapy across a range of seating positions, including a full-body lounger and multiple unique massage seats. The barrier-free layout, generous depth, and added cooldown bench make it a versatile option for both relaxation and social use.
On the tech side, smart connectivity via the ControlMySpa app, PlatinumGuru water monitoring, and the PlatinumPure 4-stage purification system are all designed to simplify ownership while maintaining clean, balanced water. Add in the built-in Bluetooth sound system and continuous filtration via a circulation pump, and it’s clearly built with convenience and enjoyment in mind.
With CEC-certified efficiency, heat pump compatibility, and Platinum’s latest Premium Shield Plus insulation system, the Portofino also keeps running costs impressively sensible for its size and spec.
But does it truly deliver on its premium promise? Watch the full review to see our no-nonsense WhatSpa? verdict.
