Spas and hot tubs used to be these big, bulky things that were difficult to set up and hard to maintain.  With advances in technology, the day of the ugly hot tub is gone.  Now you can take your hot tub with you, anywhere you want to go thanks to the advent of portable spas.  Imagine sitting in a hot tub while you are camping in your RV, staring up at the stars while relaxing in the warm, bubbling water, your stress floating away with the mountain breeze.  As long as you have a 110-volt outlet available, it’s a real possibility.  Portable hot tubs come in various makes and models, with a starting price of around $700.  A Pool and Spa News article republished by BNET Business Network states that “portable spas are becoming increasingly mainstream” with today’s models being “armed with state-of-the-art features.”  Inflatable hot tubs have become extremely popular due to the ease of set up and lower prices.  Other Spa-in-a-box versions, while requiring a bit more set-up, offer a faux wood look for a more finished look.  Still others are made of vinyl and finished to look like sandstone.  Most can seat at least 4 people and come with at least a 1hp motor to power the jets.  If a portable spa is a viable option for you there are many hot tub dealers who carry several different models with a price range for every budget.
