Give guests another reason to enjoy the backyard. A thoughtfully chosen spa can turn a quiet evening at your property into part of the vacation they remember.
At The Backyard District, we help you compare Sundance® seating, features and ownership needs so you can plan an amenity that fits your space and the way your rental operates.
After the beach, after dinner or after a day exploring South Florida, a private place to unwind makes the outdoor space feel like part of the stay. Comfortable seating, a well-planned setting and clear instructions all help create that experience.
For the owner, the decision also includes upkeep, installation and the rules that apply to the property. We start with those practical details, then help you compare the spas that deserve a closer look.
Find your starting point
The right choice depends on your property’s permitted use, guest load and service plan. These are models to compare once suitability and warranty coverage have been confirmed.
Start the conversation here
680™ Series
A practical starting point for a group-oriented property. Its open seating and cool-down seat give guests several ways to settle in and enjoy the water.
A more premium shortlist
780™ Series
Consider the Chelsee® when a more varied massage experience is part of your property’s appeal. Open seating keeps the focus on shared downtime.
For a smaller outdoor space
680™ Series
A compact open-seating option to discuss when patio space is limited. Leave room around the spa for access, the cover and comfortable circulation.
Choose for real life
Think about the guest experience and the people responsible for keeping the spa ready.
Open seating offers several upright positions and works well for conversation. A lounge may suit a couples retreat. Choose around how your guests will actually use the space.
Look for clearly labeled controls and provide short operating instructions. Show guests how to use jets, lighting and the cover without changing maintenance settings.
Arrange testing, sanitizer management, filter care and inspections with a qualified service provider. Guest turnover alone should not determine when water gets checked.
Account for filled weight, electrical supply, delivery access, service clearance and cover movement. A beautiful patio still needs a practical installation plan.
Ask about compatible SmartTub® equipment, connected features and any service fees. Remote monitoring can support oversight, but it does not test the water or replace on-site care.
Allow for electricity, water, chemicals, service visits and eventual repairs as well as the spa itself. Compare total ownership needs before deciding.
A hot tub needs a clear operating plan before the first guest arrives. Decide who will check the water, look after the filters, inspect the equipment and respond when something needs attention.
Have a qualified provider set a water-testing and maintenance schedule for your guest load and applicable requirements.
Provide short instructions for jets, the cover and safe use.
Keep water temperature at or below 104°F and follow any stricter applicable limits. This is a maximum, not a recommended setting for every guest.
Keep children under five out of the hot tub, and communicate the relevant guest safety rules.
Take the spa out of use when water quality or equipment conditions are unsafe.
Filtration and compatible remote monitoring can support ownership. On-site inspection and proper sanitizer and water-balance management remain essential.
The finishing details
A thoughtful setup helps guests enjoy the spa and helps your team look after it.
Questions, answered
Start with suitability for the property, then compare seating, controls, service needs and budget. The Edison® is a useful open-seating starting point to discuss with TBD. The Chelsee® and Prado® offer other layouts and size options. Every recommendation depends on confirming the intended use and warranty terms.
Do not assume so. Rental use may affect manufacturer warranty coverage, insurance and local operating requirements. Confirm the exact model and installation for the intended use before purchasing.
Open seating usually offers more upright seating choices and suits social soaking. A lounge may be a good fit for a couples retreat. Comfort depends on guests’ height and build as well as the number of molded seats.
A hot tub can add to the outdoor experience you market, but bookings and rates depend on your location, competition, presentation and operating costs. There is no guaranteed return. Evaluate the amenity alongside your property’s wider business plan.
Set a schedule with a qualified spa service provider based on guest use and applicable requirements. Include water testing, sanitizer and pH management, cleaning, filter care and inspections. Keep the spa out of use if water conditions or equipment are unsafe.
No. Compatible connected equipment can help with certain monitoring and control functions. It does not replace physical inspection, water testing or regular maintenance. Ask about model compatibility and subscription requirements.
Share the property ZIP code, whether the spa will be private or shared, typical guest count, available space, purchase timeline and maintenance arrangements. Photos and measurements can help us narrow the options.
Tell us where the property is, how many guests you usually host and what you have in mind. We’ll help you compare the options and identify the details to confirm before you choose a spa.
