I have a friend of exquisite tastes who has a quite enviable spa in his backyard. The most noteworthy aspect of the hot tub is the fact that it surrounded by stone which is arranged so that a small water fall pours out of it and lands into a wading pool for the kiddos. It cost him a pretty cent to construct but he is one of the rare few gentlemen I know who can afford such an extravagance.

But for all its wondrous beauty, such a hot tub cannot beat the appeal of portable spas.

Think about it-the fancy stone based tub, while nice, is stuck in one location. With a portable spa you can take the fun with you. Most are extremely light weight and can be transported in the back of a standard truck or SUV. This means that you can have a hot tub party anywhere at any time.

In the realm of cheap hot tubs, it doesn’t get much better than a portable tub either. These babies are usually very cost effective and aesthetically pleasing as they come in a variety of shapes, sizes and colors.

If you are on the market for hot tubs and spas don’t discount looking at a portable version-heck, you may even be able to take the thing beach side. Imagine a fine day or romping in the ocean waves that is topped off by a steamy soak in a Jacuzzi. Can life get any better than that?
