Best Inflatable Hot Tubs: 9 Top Picks For 2022

Posted by Martina Birk on Thursday, February 8, 2024

Post-2020, the best inflatable hot tubs have been well and truly established. Indeed, according to The Telegraph, during the first 12 weeks of lockdown their sales surged by a whopping 480%, with home and garden renovations at an all-time high. And inflatable pools were pretty popular, too. 

Fortunately for us, that means no messing about in our search for an inflatable hot tub for summer 2022. From capacity to maximum temperature, there are a number of factors to consider and, thanks to a mass of online inflatable hot tub reviews circa 2020, you can just cut straight to the point and eliminate what you do and don't want in a portable hot tub. Zero faff. 

One of the best retailers for reviews is Argos, and their Cancun Lay-Z-Spa alone has racked up an impressive 176 comments. The things buyers are most concerned about? Size (does it actually seat eight people…), heat retention and price. Most inflatable hot tubs on the market hover around the four person capacity, but six person options are available, too. Regarding heat retention, the outer walls and cover are going to make all the difference. Look for an insulated cover, a thermal ground cloth and, if you're really concerned, you can even buy hot tub insulation jackets for the colder months. 

Our pick of the best inflatable hot tubs? See this Tahiti Lay-Z-Spa from Blacks, with a sizeable spec - highlights include, LED lighting and that all-important massage jet system - at less than £300, it comes in at a much smaller price than its competitors. Elsewhere, this MSpa Premium 6 Person hot tub is as spacious as can be and gives other, more well known, names on the market a run for their money with a masterclass in luxury appeal. With a leather trim finish and ozone technology, negating the need for chlorine entirely, the MSpa is the high-end choice for us.
