12 person spa
Searching for hot tubs can be difficult, especially if you find yourself in need of a hot tub that can host large groups or families.
While 12-person hot tubs are breaching into swim spa territory based purely on their size, there are still many that focus more on hydrotherapy than exercise.
Come with us as we explore some of the best hot tubs on the market with room for 12 people.
Swim spas can greatly range in terms of price depending on the features that you choose to install in them. If you decide to keep your swim spa on the simple end, you could end up paying next to $10,000.
Of course, as you begin upgrading the jets, jet systems, equipment, LED light fixtures, and entertainment features, the price quickly skyrockets. On the higher end, you could end up spending next to $30,000 for a swim spa.

Final Thoughts – Getting The Biggest Spa for the Best Price
There are many things to consider when looking for the right spa.
You want the right equipment that can create an intuitive and maintenance-friendly spa experience, a shell is both durable and fits the aesthetic of your backyard space, a jet system that can provide you with hydrotherapy (and potentially enough current to swim), and a circulation pump and jet pump system that can save you some money on your energy bills.
It is always important to check review pages on manufacturer sites if they are available to find out how real users feel about their particular spa experience before buying and speak with your local dealer about your needs so they can help you find the right spa for you.
Make sure to also consider delivery costs, shipping costs, and installation costs, as spas that are this big can be quite difficult to fit into your space at home.
