This hot tub has been a great purchase. Not only for recreational use but also for healing purposes. I have found that it has tremendously helped with my arthritis. I would highly recommend this hot tub.

We purchased the Kauai spa after shopping around for several months. We were looking to replace our broken Thermospa that we purchased back in 1999. We loved the design and seat placement in the Kauai and we enjoy it on a regular basis. I had two bad knees at the time of purchase and would go in to relieve my aches and pains. Now I have two knee replacements and it is great for doing all my bending excercises in. It also is great for lower back pain the jets hit in all the right places. My husband and I enjoy the spa almost on a daily basis.

Thank-you for taking the time to review your Kauai, and for being a part of the Caldera family. There are many options when purchasing a new spa, and we appreciate you choosing a Caldera. I'm thrilled to read of the relief your tub provides, and that you and your husband enjoy it so often.

We have found the Kauai to be a spa with excellent jets, fairly easy to maintain. Adjusting chemicals and cleaning it regularly Is work on any spa, and this is probably about as easy as it can be. We use it in the classic way, which is to relax and help ease muscle strain. Again this is probably as good as it gets. We just wish we had more free time to enjoy Laurel's Kauai.
Response from Caldera SpasBy Jaclyn, Customer Service, July 7, 2015
Thanks for taking the time to review your Caldera Kauai model spa, Lori! I'm so pleased to read of the benefits it's brought, and love that "Laurel's Kauai" has been hassle free. I hope you are able to etch out as much time as possible enjoying your tub.

The Kauai is the perfect size for my wife and I. We have had bigger tubs and we found that we are just heating up water that is not being used. I use our tub almost every morning before go to work.

Yay - so happy to hear you found the perfect size spa with the Kauai model! Great way to start each day with a soak in the spa - thanks for your feedback!

Few days go by unless it's below zero that I'm not lounging in my Caldera Spa! I bought it last year at the Alaska State Fair after visiting every Hot Tub booth. It has been exactly what I'd hoped for! I LOVE my hot tub!......Beth

I wish I could sleep in it as it is so relaxing I just hate to get out. Helps relieve painful issues of fibromyalgia , arthritis, and bad back. It is so easy to maintain with the in-line frog system. A great investment. II use it year-round!
Response from Caldera SpasBy Vanessa, Customer Service, June 24, 2015
Oh no please don't sleep in your spa, but I can understand why you would want to. The kind of relaxation you can experience in a hot tub is beyond cloud 9. Happy to know that you find relief from some painful ailments. Thank you for your review and we wish you many years of hot tub bliss.

We love the Kauai hot tub, perfect size for our smaller patio. The jets are more powerful that we thought they would be based on the overall size. We have had the spa for 2 months and love it.

After an extensive search of local spa dealers and online, my daughter and I chose the Kauai for our small Huntington Beach backyard which I remodeled into a family retreat. Looks, comfort and hydrotherapy were important features in a spa, and we were willing to pay a little bit more to get the best for our project. Our Kauai spa has been in use for over a year, and we are still very happy with our purchase. Ryan, our dealer, was great with installation and startup.
Response from Caldera SpasBy Marianne, Customer Service, May 18, 2015
Hello, WOW! That setting for your Kauai looks so beautiful!! Thank you for letting us know how much you love your new found paradise!! So happy to hear the dealer did a great job and got you into the perfect spa! Enjoy!

It is very comfortable and with two you have plenty of room. The jets are all adjustable so it will hit you wherever you need it to. It has helped my RA flares and sore muscles after working out or playing sports. I treasure my Caldera Paradise Kauai...

Kauai hot tub

We've had our hot tube for a year now. We have always enjoyed them at vacation spots, but never were sure we could afford or maintain a hot tub. However, after just going to places just to use on, it became apparent we needed our own. It was installed in a three sided glass room on our front and private deck. Since then it is used almost daily by one or both of us. After a hard day of ranch work, the aches and pains are surely reduced. We like the hot tub and serenity of the time spent in the hot jet focused water, that we are now adding a separate bedroom entry to a new 'only' hot tub room. It has become such a part of our life that when we travel we cannot wait to get home to our private retreat. This has been one of our best investments. I am sure there is a Caldera Spa to fit any persons needs.
Response from Caldera SpasBy Marianne, Customer Service, October 6, 2014

We have had our Kauai hot tub for three years now and have enjoyed it every time we get in to relax. There is nothing better to relax tired muscles and relieve my arthritis pains. This saves me from going to expensive spas. My wife and I use our spa time to converse and enjoy bonding time. This is much better than the motor home we sold to buy this spa.
Response from Caldera SpasBy Ben, Customer Service, September 11, 2014
Hi there happy Kauai owner! I couldn't agree more, the health benefits of a daily soak can provide so much relief, all while spending quality time with those close to you! Plus, its great to hear you found something that you can enjoy together!

we love our kauai. Built for 3 but big enough for 4 comfortably. we love the changing colored lights plenty of glass rests. Can't get over the temperature controls: you can keep it cool in summer but with a push of a button temperature quickly rises. the only problems we've had is maintaining pH alkaline balance, and sometimes mildew builds up on the cover and needs to be cleaned with bleach. It is a dream on our new enclosed porch.
Response from Caldera SpasBy Ben, Customer Service, September 22, 2014
Hey there Kauai spa owner! Sounds like you found the perfect fit for your family's enjoyment! For help with your spa's water chemistry, check out the spa's owner's manual, contact your local dealership, or call us at Watkins Customer Service by dialing 800.669.1881 ext 8432. Keep that dream alive with continued use of your Kauai spa on your new porch, very exciting!

This is our first hot tub and we are wondering why it took us so long to get one! The smaller size is perfect for the two of us and it's located just outside our bedroom door, so we can slip in for a quick dip when it's cold outside. We will probably drain it next spring and not let water sit in it over the summer, but we are looking forward to some cool fall nights. It's easy to take care of and we couldn't be happier.

We have enjoyed our spa except for the three months we were unable to use it. The reason for that is that Caldera provided the incorrect ozone generator for the spa to the dealer and when it died it left us with an absolutely useless spa until the dealer went through a three month cleaning process to remove all of the detritus that had clogged the entire piping system, the pumps, and the spa itself. Once they installed the correct ozone generator and cleaned the spa thoroughly we are back to total enjoyment.
Response from Caldera SpasBy Vanessa, Customer Service, September 16, 2014
Thank you for your review. I am sorry to hear that your initial experience with your hot tub was not ideal. However, I am glad that your dealer was able to rectify the situation. If you should need additional service you can reach Customer Service at 800.669.1881 ext8432. May you enjoy your spa for years to come.
Happy Hot Tubbing!

This hot tub really has perfect jets. Its comfy, easy to maintain, and just a very nice hot tub. We had to go with a smaller tub because of our zoning, but there are some drawbacks to a smaller hot tub. It's much less energy efficient than a larger tub- our electric bill went up about $50 in the summer and $100 in the winter. And while it seats 3, its really only comfortable for 2. If I had to do it again would go back and buy a house that they would let me put a big hot tub in, but If I couldn't I would buy this one again in a minute.

We bought our Kauai nine years ago and we use it weekly.
Since that time we never caught a cold. After a soccer game we ever relax in the spa so that we don't get sore muscles.
