Hot Tubs - Can they add property value and potential income ?
With spring on the way we’re all looking forward to getting back out into our gardens – and what better way than enjoying it than from a luxurious soothing hot tub? Hot tubs offer a whole host of benefits to your health, well-being and property value:
Add value to the property
Installing a hot tub can be a good way to increase the overall value of your property if you ever decide to sell. In fact, even if you’re planning to take it with you, just its presence can convince and inspire eager buyers that this could be the perfect paradise for them.
Stress Relief
Stress results in muscle tension, headaches, fatigue and soreness. Regular Hot Tub use, through a combination of buoyancy, heat and massage relieves tension and stress.
Buoyancy eases pressure in joints and muscles, while heat increases blood flow to muscles and accelerates healing. Additionally, Hot tub jets provide therapeutic massage, stimulating the release of endorphins, which are the body’s natural painkiller.
Minimise pain
For people with arthritis, the Arthritis Research Campaign recommends using a hot tub as an excellent way to apply heat to arthritic joints.
Benefits of a soak in a hot tub can include muscle relaxation, decreased pain and joint stiffness and greater ease when performing exercise and daily activities.
Sleep more soundly
According to the National Sleep Foundation, 30 million Britons suffer from mild to chronic insomnia and other sleep disorders. A study in the journal ‘Sleep’ showed that soaking in a hot tub prior to bedtime will not only help you fall asleep, but will provide a deeper, more relaxing sleep as the body cools.
Tech-free haven
And one of the most important health benefits of a hot tub has to be that it is a tech-free zone, allowing you to enjoy time with your loved ones in a safe, warm and relaxed environment, encouraging conversation to flow freely and allowing precious familial bonds to strengthen.
If you are thinking of installing a hot tub at your holiday let property, here are some things to consider:
There is a lot to think about, such as the type of hot tub you want, where best to position it, and then of course there’s the regular care and maintenance to ensure the safety and well-being of your guests. However, with hot tub holidays now being highly sought after by guests, the benefits far outweigh the cons – as long as you don’t mind making a little bit of extra effort!
Enjoy more bookings
It’s undeniable that providing extras such as a hot tub will attract more guests to your property, and from our own research via Google’s keyword tool (which anyone with an account can access), there are thousands of people searching for hot tub holidays every day.
A nice income boost
Having an additional feature as fabulous as a luxury hot tub can also give you the opportunity to increase your booking charges – some holiday let owners find they can increase their booking charges by around 10 – 20%.
Happier guests
Happy guests should be what your holiday letting business is all about – and if you have the chance of making their holiday extra memorable with a lovely, invigorating hot tub experience, then their happiness will (hopefully) be reflected in some wonderful reviews. And we all know that good reviews help attract even more paying guests!
Simple and quick to install
OC Spas are experts in this field and will ensure the spa is filled and working by the time they leave on delivery day. They also provide on-site chemical training and same day call-out. With the added reassurance that they have all parts in stock at their Showroom in Goonhavern, your guests will not be let down.
Tips for buying a hot tub:
For OC Spas, it is essential that their clients are able to make an informed decision when buying a hot tub. The importance lies in the fact that their clients are able to see and test the spas as part of the buying process, which means there are no hidden costs or surprises. We will provide help at the initial enquiry, assistance on making the correct spa choice, advice on chemicals and installation, giving quality care and after sales service.
It’s important to bear in mind, that no matter what, it’s likely that your hot tub will eventually receive some wear and tear. It is therefore important to consider how it will be maintained. OC Spas takes the sting out of the process by offering a specialist installation and aftercare package, meaning that the team will continue to give you an amazing service even after your hot tub is installed.
OC recognise that buying a spa is more of a long-term commitment to a product, which is why they encourage their clients to put their tubs to the test and try them out for themselves. A visit to the showroom, which is equipped with warm changing rooms, towels and fluffy robes, gives a purchasing experience that’s a great deal more enjoyable than a spontaneous snap decision, and will result in many more years of enjoyment with your spa.
