If you’ve had the privilege of visiting a high-end spa or enjoying a stay at a top-notch hotel, chances are you might have spotted an outdoor tub somewhere along the way. Surrounded by everything from lush greenery to charming wood paneling or all-stone walls, an outdoor tub is just begging you to take a dip and get into full relaxation mode — with nature as the backdrop. Think about the benefits of an outdoor shower but better … much better.
Unlike large hot tubs that call for an electrical connection and easy access to a garden hose, an outdoor tub is much more compact and fairly easy to drain. Plus, today there are a slew of tub styles to suit your design aesthetic. You can go for a sleek and modern tub that’s perfect for a minimalist setup or lean into a vintage farmhouse look with a freestanding clawfoot tub. The choice is all yours, and you have full reign to outfit your outdoor space with any tub that feels right for you. Ready to dream big and consider incorporating an outdoor tub into your space?
