Couples on a romantic getaway and VIP guests at your hotel don’t always want to mingle when they are on vacation. Instead, they spring for the higher-end suite packages that offer more exclusive luxuries that they can enjoy in private. One such luxury is a personal spa space designed to promote relaxation and a romantic atmosphere.
Public spa spaces can feel too crowded, and it can be hard to schedule the right time to soak in a whirlpool tub when a guest wants to be spontaneous. For these high-level guests, spa features that are accessible within the guest room suite provide the perfect mixture of privacy and luxury that is always available throughout their stay.
Jacuzzi Versus Whirlpool Tubs
A private Jacuzzi or whirlpool tub is a top feature that can be found in a spa guest room. The tub may be located in the bedroom area, adjacent to the master bathroom space, on a covered balcony space, or in a designated spa room that is equipped with massage tables and other sauna-related features. Guests won’t even have to leave their suites in order to indulge in spa services.
When debating on which type of tub to obtain, here’s a simple thing to remember. The term “Jacuzzi” and “whirlpool” are simply brand names for a spa bath and a jetted bath. A spa tub, or Jacuzzi, pushes jets of air into the water to create massaging bubbles to relax the body in a gentle manner. A jetted tub, or whirlpool, shoots jets of water through the tub to provide more of a deep hydrotherapy pressure to the body.
Since both Jacuzzi and whirlpool tubs have a deep basin to accommodate the multiple jet features, many have arching spouts in elegant finishes to match the spa theme of the space. They may also feature a hand shower to provide a relaxing stream of water to specific areas of the body to provide a deeper massage feeling.

Steam Showers
Adding a sauna to a personal guest room suite isn’t always feasible. Yet a steam shower offers the same steam effect as a sauna while combining shower aspects.
The steam generated in this type of shower has a lower heat temperature than a sauna, which most of your guests can enjoy. It provides moist heat from a steam generator that can be placed under a sink area that is adjacent to the stall. All the mechanisms to control the generator are available right next to the shower controls.
The main benefit in combining a steam feature into a regular shower system is that guests can shower themselves before and after the steam treatment in the same place. Then you can bring in added shower luxuries such as a rain shower head, body sprays, and hand shower elements to provide additional options to guests.
The Design Studio Creations shower/hand shower system features a rain shower spout and hand shower that would complement a steam shower and provide a clean, stylish look.
Soaking Tubs
After taking part in all the entertainment that your hotel has to offer, couples want to come back and just cuddle in a nice large tub as the bubbles, or even rose petals, surround them for a romantic evening. Soaking tubs provide the highest levels of luxury for hotel guests who just want to sip on champagne, turn down the lights, and fully relax in the water.
Soaking tubs can typically accommodate both adults at one time and can be positioned near large windows or glass doors as the couple can look out over the sunset and cityscape views.
The Symmons Naru® two handle roman tub faucet features a side spray to give guests the ability to customize their soaking tub relaxation experience.
When it comes to in-suite luxuries, offering spa-like features inside the hotel room can attract guests who want to have a more private stay yet not be shut out from the hotel’s luxury amenities. Spa guest rooms provide VIP individuals and upscale guests with what they desire for a more relaxing experience.
