Gazebo Hot Tub Design Idea

Isn’t this a beautiful gazebo hot tub design idea? This owner has opted to leave off the gazebo rails and floors, and set only the posts and roof over the inground hot tub as a shelter. The outdoor lighting and hardscaping cap off this wonderful design idea. Hot tub gazebos are becoming incredibly popular as more and more people seek to make their backyards into the ultimate private resort.

If you are thinking about building a gazebo hot tub, remember that the hot tub needs to be of a size and shape that will fit in your gazebo with room to walk around. You can build a open spa in your gazebo like the one pictured above. You’ll need professional help to ensure that proper electrical supply lines, plumbing, and drainage are available. You also want to ensure you have all the proper permits before starting construction.

Another option, if you don’t have the yard space or don’t want to set up a permanent install, would be to set up a portable gazebo hot tub. A portable hot tub can be installed outdoors with little more than a concrete slab for support and may be run on your home’s standard 120-volt current. Installation generally does not require permitting (please do check to make sure). Insure that proper drainage is available; check your hot tub manual or with your hot tub dealer for details. For maximum flexibility, you could pair a portable gazebo with your portable spa. A few well placed large potted palms and other plants, and voila! Near-instant backyard gazebo hot tub.
