A Merry Christmas Hot Tub

Max Piggott

Celebrating Christmas in the hot tub can be a magical and cosy experience! Here are some fun and festive ideas to make the most of the season in your hot tub:

1. Decorative Ambiance

  • Twinkling Lights: String outdoor waterproof fairy lights or hang LED icicle lights around the hot tub area.
  • Festive Floats: Add holiday-themed floating decorations like inflatable snowmen, reindeer, or ornaments.
  • Christmas Tree Nearby: Set up a small, waterproof artificial Christmas tree nearby with lights and outdoor-safe ornaments.

2. Hot Tub Accessories

  • Holiday Aromatherapy: Use holiday-scented spa-safe aromatherapy like cinnamon, peppermint, or pine.
  • Seasonal Towels & Robes: Provide festive towels and robes with Christmas designs or cosy colors.
  • Santa Hats: Offer Santa or elf hats for fun photos and a festive vibe.

3. Food & Drinks

  • Hot Drinks Bar: Set up a nearby table with hot chocolate, mulled wine, or spiced cider in insulated cups.
  • Holiday Treats: Serve Christmas cookies, gingerbread, or candy canes on floating trays.
  • Champagne or Eggnog: Celebrate with a toast in the tub (use shatterproof glasses).

4. Entertainment

  • Christmas Music: Play classic Christmas tunes or create a special holiday playlist.
  • Movie Night: Set up an outdoor projector or waterproof TV and watch Christmas classics like Home Alone or Elf.
  • Holiday Games: Play Christmas trivia or charades tailored for the hot tub.

5. Themed Soaks

  • Polar Plunge & Warm Up: For the adventurous, take a quick cold dip before warming up in the tub.
  • Christmas Eve Wind Down: A quiet soak under the stars with calm Christmas music.
  • New Year's Countdown: Use the hot tub as the central place to countdown to midnight on New Year’s Eve.

6. Safety & Comfort

  • Heated Pathways: If it’s snowy, make sure pathways to the hot tub are cleared and safe.
  • Wind Barriers: Use outdoor screens or panels to protect from chilly winds.
  • Towel Warmers: Add a small outdoor towel warmer for extra comfort when getting out.

7. Photo Op

  • Create a designated photo area with festive props and lights to capture fun holiday memories.

8. Family or Romantic Touch

  • Family Fun Night: Add floating LED candles and let kids enjoy safe, festive floats.
  • Romantic Soak: Use warm tones with red and gold lights, candles, and quiet holiday jazz.

However you decide to celebrate we hope you have a very Happy Christmas!
