Best small hot tub for STR

[Jillian Shuler]

Hey all,

I have a short term rental that sleeps 6 people and has a small courtyard with a fence. I was thinking of purchasing a hot tub...I called local companies and can get a 220v hot tub for around 6500, or could order a "plug and play" online that is 110v. I like the smaller plug and play option but wondering if anyone has one and how their electric bill has been? Our area is very seasonal so I am always hesitant to spend too much money since it's not booked year round. Thank you!

Quote from @John Underwood:

Definately get a 240VAC hot tub. A 110VAC would take too long to heat and would.cost extra in electricity. 

Sam's club has some good deals on these.

Agreed do not get 110.  Guests will not be happy.  It will take a good 24 hours to reach temp after a clean and refill.
