The Hottest Home Trend: Create Your Own Spa Sanctuary

The lines between home and relaxation are blurring, and for good reason. With daily stressors piling up and self-care becoming a priority, people are no longer waiting for an occasional spa day to unwind—they’re bringing the spa home. From hot tubs and saunas to steam rooms and cold plunges, homeowners are crafting personal wellness sanctuaries that fit seamlessly into their routines.


For Simply Happy Hot Tubs & Saunas, this trend is an opportunity to show how bringing the spa experience home can be both achievable and life-enhancing. Let’s dive into why this movement is booming and how homeowners can create their own wellness oasis.


 

Why At-Home Wellness Retreats Are on the Rise

Several factors are fueling this shift:

  • The Wellness Boom – The post-pandemic world has placed a premium on self-care and holistic health. People now prioritize relaxation, stress relief, and recovery just as much as diet and exercise.


  • The "Staycation" Trend – Homeowners are investing in their spaces more than ever, seeing them as places of escape rather than just somewhere to sleep.


  • Health Benefits of Heat Therapy – Research continues to back the health benefits of saunas and hot tubs, from improving circulation and detoxification to reducing anxiety and enhancing sleep quality.


  • Customization & Accessibility – With modular hot tubs, compact infrared saunas, and even budget-friendly cold plunges, wellness retreats are no longer reserved for the ultra-rich.


 

How to Design a Home Spa Sanctuary


1. Choose Your Experience: Sauna vs. Hot Tub (or Both!)

  • Hot tubs are perfect for relaxation, muscle recovery, and hydrotherapy.

  • Traditional saunas offer deep detoxification and stress relief.

  • Infrared saunas heat the body more gently and are great for skin and circulation.

  • Cold plunges are ideal for contrast therapy, boosting circulation and reducing inflammation.


Pro Tip: Many homeowners are now pairing a hot tub with a sauna for the ultimate spa-like routine.

2. Find the Perfect Location

  • Backyards & Patios – Ideal for open-air relaxation with scenic views.

  • Basements & Spare Rooms – Transform unused space into a personal wellness escape.

  • Bathrooms & En Suites – A growing trend in luxury home renovations.


Pro Tip: Consider ventilation, plumbing, and electrical needs when planning an indoor sauna or hot tub setup.

3. Create the Ambience

  • Lighting: Soft, dimmable lights or LED strips for a calming effect.

  • Aromatherapy: Essential oils or eucalyptus bundles for a true spa feel.

  • Soundscapes: Built-in speakers for meditation music or nature sounds.

  • Textures: Warm wood, stone, or tile to enhance the sanctuary vibe.
