The Geneva is so comfortable, we absolutely love it. It sits on our pool deck, and it gets used daily. We have had a few struggles, some probably related to high use such as knobs coming apart and speakers ceasing to work, but we also had an internal part fail which drained the spa. Luckily we caught that before the spa completely drained so we were able to shut it down so nothing else was damaged. This is our first spa so water care still remains challenging, but our Geneva gets a ton of use, especially teens, so I'm sure that is part of the challenge. We do love our Geneva, and it's a good value!

We love our spa. I did a lot of research and chose this brand as the best long term value. I really thought I wanted a control that I could use with my mobile phone, but after using the spa it turns it isn't necessary. Cracks developed on the outside, I guess I'll find out how good the warranty us.

The Geneva is a wonderful vacation at home. The filtration system could be improved on to give better water filtration but the cost to value ratio is incomparable to other brands.

I have Raynaulds, ( lose of blood flow to my hands and feet) what a relief my hot tub is. Love to sit under the stars before bed time. Factory worker for more than 40 years, sure is relaxing after a long day.

Love the tub except that it tops out at 103 degrees. Also the drain is plastic. Should be brass , to last. Dealer doesn't really want to work on any house calls. But overall a way good product ! Yes , I would buy one again. New models heat to 106.
By Customer Service Caldera VanessaMarch 28, 2016
I am glad that you love your spa. Hot tub soaking is fabulous!

You bring up some good points. Caldera Spas 2012 and newer do heat up beyond 104. Using brass in the spa will mean more cleaning, since it will oxidize while being exposed to the chemicals that keep your water clean. Plastic is the best material to be used and works well. Dealer support is important and I would like to see how I can help. Please look for an email from me in your inbox. You can also reach Customer Service at 800-669-1881 x8432.

Thank you for your review. calderaspas_brand

So I'll start by saying we really do like our spa. The upgraded lights give it a great effect and the jets are really strong. The lounge is way too tall for me even with a booster (I'm 5'5) so I don't really use that seat as I can't get the full effect of the jets on your feet. The whirlpool jet is in an awkward spot (at the very bottom of the seat) and you have to put yourself in very unnatural positions to be able to use it....it should be a few inches higher. Also, the neck jets are more of a gimmick as there is hardly any pressure coming from them but the rest of that seat is amazing. My only other complaint is that there are no jets in the foot ridge. For this reason alone I wish I had gotten the Makena as I'd rather have the jets in the right areas verses the fancy lights. Other than that I am happy with our purchase. I wish you could make adjustments on these things because if you could this spa would be perfect! Other than the top neck jets, the jets have a ton of power and provide a great massage. We enjoy the tub several times a week and the water care is pretty simple. It's been a great purchase and I would buy a Caldera again.....just likely a different model.

The first year we had the spa, it had a temperature sensor and main control panel go out on it. The store we bought it from was quick to respond and fix it. Since then it has work perfectly and provides hours of enjoyment. We live right on the beach so it is in a high salt environment, but works great. I would definitely recommend this hot tub.

Wow - great to hear you are enjoying your spa after 3 years, and some minor warranty work! So happy to hear you are pleased with your local dealership's response to your service needs! We hope you continue to enjoy your spa, Frank007!

I like the hot tub alot "BUT" the layout makes it not as comfortable for taller people. My 5'4" wife loves it and with good reason. I first got hooked with hot tubs due to my friend's tub being older design, simpler and more "park bench" style all the way around. This Caldera design, every seat is different and when you have just one seat that fits you, it becomes "assigned seating" which isn't fun when you feel you have to kick someone out of that seat to enjoy the tub. Other than that, performance, electric use, ease of maintenance, looks, durability, are excellent. It's our first full year with the tub and I am satisfied.. I'll just have to man up and throw people out of my spot. My recommendation, GET IN THE SHOW ROOM TUB and sit for 10 minutes in each tub. A simpler and less expensive tub in my opinion may be more comfortable.
Response from Caldera SpasBy The Caldera Hot Tub TeamMarketingJune 4, 2013
Thank you for your review. I am disappointed to read that you have trouble with the layout. A Caldera spa is designed for pure comfort, with each seat position focused on massaging one muscle group at a time. We encourage you to rotate seats to give each major muscle group attention. I will be sending your feedback to the product team. I appreciate your feedback, which will allow us to make enhancements to future spa models. Please let our team know if you need any assistance. I want you to enjoy your spa for many years to come!

The tub is beautiful to look at and feels very relaxing when in it. I think we might have gone overboard with this particular model and the size of the room. The tub is enclosed on a indoor porch and the heat and moisture that this throws off might be a little too much for the type of windows we have and the wall mounted TV. Things tend to get moist.

The best part of spa shopping is Wet Testing...Put your suit on and jump in...It is the only way to experience it. Business will fill the spa for you. When we went to purchase a spa, we were looking at the smaller one. Once we sat in the larger one, we knew it was the better purchase. It is very comfortable. Of course, there is always things to watch out for. Our biggest suggestion is start with the SOFT SPA...do not use the frog system. We had trouble for over a year trying to keep the chemicals balanced and it was a half hour ride to the store every time we needed the water tested. We developed rashes and it was from the unbalanced chemicals. With the soft spa, it just feels better and no rashes. ANd it is much easier to deal with. Don't waste time "trying" the other ones first. Also,water does evaporate often and you have to keep adding water....once a month. Cleaning is easy. Use spa purge..... We love our spa, especially now that the water balance is cleared up. Go for it!!!

Very good overall, but I have one exterior light that doesn't work anymore. Also, I think the filtration is not adequate. It seems like I need to run all the jets periodically even when I'm not using it to keep the water clear.

Had a Caldera 25 years ago, did the homework then and it was the best. Retired, built a house in another area, did the homework again 25 years later, Caldera is still the best. The only update/feature they should add (as has been the case with some other Watkins-owned spa companies) is the salt water option.

The Geneva & Martinque need to have a baby. I loved my Martinque for 13 years & wanted more jets so I upgraded to the Geneva and am honestly disappointed. If there was a bigger five person with about 45 jets it would be perfect.
There are barely any cup holders compared to the Martinque, the neck jets are a pain and after 4 weeks I still cannot get them adjusted to be comfortable and not spit water in my face, you cannot sit in the two main seats with the jets full force for both at the same time (I could do this in the Martinque). This saltwater system is a complete pain compared to good old fashion chlorine.
It is a nice spa but not near as comfortable and what I was looking forward to.

Problem with salt system

Doc
from Harrisburg
I bought the most expensive salt water hot tub because I wanted the best. Soon after buying, problem with salt system and have been waiting over 1 month for the part. I spent a lot of money because i wanted a salt system hot tub and because of the name. I expected a quick turn around and I’m very unhappy with the Caldera trademark. I will not recommend. FYI still waiting for the part. Dr. Manjon
By Customer Service Caldera MelissaMay 19, 2021
Thank you for taking the time to provide your feedback. I understand your frustration with not being able to relax and enjoy your Geneva hot tub. I do apologize for the delay on the part needed for your Freshwater Salt System. With demand at an all-time high, some items have a longer lead time. Please look for an email from me, I would like to help. calderaspas_brand
