This is the One to Get!
PostedSeptember 5, 2014
This is a great a spa. After owning it for three months I could not think of getting anything smaller in size or features. The one thing to note is that if you're tall the lounger might not be a perfect fit. I'm 6'5" and the lounger is not quite where I'd like it to be.
The jets in the spa are great. I have a had two previous back surgeries and purchased the spa to help with discomfort and lower back pain. This spa has been a huge help reducing pain levels and relaxing sore muscles.
The spa is easy to operate and maintain. has great features, and if you like a lot of jets I don't know that I've seen a better spa out there... and I've looked a lot.
Response from Caldera SpasBy Peggy W. , Customer Service, September 10, 2014
Great review of the Cantabria! It sounds like you did your homework before buying and, as so many Caldera spa owners have discovered, the choice of jets and the benefits of hot water therapy for tired muscles and post-op comfort in a Cantabria just can't be beat. Happy Hot Tubbing!

Not as Expected
PostedSeptember 5, 2014
Purchased and delivered July 2014.
I am not a fan of the Cantabria. From the delivery process, which was unprofessional, to the end user experience this tub does not add up to all the hype about it being the top of the line model. I am not 100% convinced that other models of Caldera spas are any better. We have had issues with water quality, jets continually popping off or not rotating every time we use the tub, problems with the audio system, and even "programming/firmware" versions not being the latest. The diverter valves are hard to turn and the waterfalls continually drip water even if the valves are turned off.
I have yet to find a seat in this large tub that I can call my favorite and I will be the first to admit that I should have wet tested this model before purchasing.
I wish I could rate the entire experience of owning this tub better but I cannot as I'm truly disappointed.

Wonderful Experience
PostedSeptember 5, 2014
I have owned my Caldera Cantabria for 4 years now and have not experienced one problem. The tub is very comfortable and large enough for you and your friends to stretch out. I live in Reno which is very cold during the winter and I keep my spa at 101 degrees year around with very little difference on my electric bill. I use my tub daily and would highly recommend a Caldera Spa to anyone who is in the market for a Spa.

Nice spa
PostedSeptember 4, 2014
Very roomy with many option for seating. We have had and issue with the stand pipe not being installed properly and a minor control panel issue. The dear we purchased our spa from came and took care of the issues - however our water bill felt the effect of draining and filling 2 times to get the issues corrected. The lights, music, and water falls make for a great experience.
Response from Caldera SpasBy Peggy W. , Customer Service, September 10, 2014
Yes, the Cantabria provides lots of seating and jet configurations for everyone. We appreciate your purchase and are available as needed to ensure that the issues you mentioned are resolved promptly. Call our toll-free line as needed and we'll work with you dealer. 800-669-1881, ext. 8432. Happy Hot Tubbing!

Excellent with minor quality issues
PostedSeptember 4, 2014
Our Cantabria spa is probably the best investment we've ever made to our backyard - we use it daily and it works wonders. Unfortunately there is a quality issue with our EuroJets - after each session there are 1-6 laying in the bottom of the tub. The local dealer is going to have to glue them on with silicone the next time we drain it. Other than that it has been an awesome experience.

First time owner LOVING it. Working through some kinks
PostedSeptember 4, 2014
ABSOLUTELY LOVE THIS HOT-TUB!!! I am working through some water issues. I will get there. Have a couple of issues with the heads to jest falling off repeatedly and one of my speakers won't come up. For a tub that costs this much I expect these things not to happen in first month. Don't get me wrong though I LOVE it. As long as I get these small issues resolved I would give this 5 stars all around.

None better!
PostedSeptember 4, 2014
We purchased the this model this Spring because of my husband's back injury and its therapeutic value. Having been in hotel hot tubs I was not real enthusiastic about it and felt that I would only give it a try to please my husband. I'm now a believer! Other hot tubs bubble hot water around you but the Caldera spa tub can actually do a very effective deep muscle massage. The lounger is extremely powerful and has several settings for a custom massage. We use it almost nightly for the last 5 months. We did enclose it in a gazebo, placed a spa bar inside, and bought tall candle pillars to light in the evening. It has a summer setting to save cost, and the chemical guidelines are located under the filter lid. I can not truly give the highest rating for energy efficiency, I do not know how much it costs to run as it is summer and we have our air conditioning on 24/7. I hate to say this but my husband was right. It is worth every dime.

Great Spa!
PostedSeptember 4, 2014
Despite some startup software bugs, we are extremely happy with this spa. The issues were fixed under warranty and efficiently by the dealer. Our purchasing experience was pleasant at Home Escapes in Reston, VA. Rosanne patiently answered all of our questions and has kept in touch to ensure we are satisfied. Dave the owner has been great too. We purchased our tub in time to have it installed before Christmas. We have the tub installed on our patio, so we enjoy the stars and snowfall when we are tubbing. We love that every seat in this tub fits the both of us. While we didn't need a big tub, the size of the Cantabria comes in very handy when we have visitors. Care of the tub is easy with simple cartridge and filter changes plus the typical weekly shock and water testing. Based on our current experience, we will highly consider replacing the tub with another Caldera Spa when the time comes.

We Love our Caldera Spa!!
PostedSeptember 4, 2014
Our entire family enjoys our Caldera Cantabria Spa! We enjoy it as a family, the kids have friends over and my wife and I have our time too! The variety of the seats and jet arrangements make it a treat to move between locations to make sure everything is covered!
Maintenance and high water quality is simple! The cartridge chemical system and the large filter take only a few minutes each week. The water quality is the best we have experienced!

Best investment ever.
PostedJune 6, 2013
My wife and I bought this for our 44th wedding anniversary. This is the best investment we ever made. It is beyond words but just to say a few things: very relaxing, adding the audio feature was a great plus (we can listen to our favorite music while in the spa) and in the late evening, we can lay back and watch the stars as we get the warm water and gentle massaging from the spa water jets.

We love our spa, it is spacious for having guests over and intimate enough for a quiet evening for two!
Easy maintenance, easy filter access.
My husband is tall and the seats are not quite deep enough for him compared to a bullfrog, but we really liked the layout and versatility of the spa arrangement. The kids love the waterfalls that light up at night!
