Luxury Hot Tubs
Luxury hot tubs from Finnmark bring award-winning Nordic design to your outdoor space. Crafted in Finland by Drop Design Pool, these premium spas feature durable insulated shells, advanced filtration, and ergonomic seating designed for complete comfort – offering a wellness retreat that stands up to the harshest climates.
Drop Collection – Finnish Design for Outdoor Hot Tubs
The Drop Collection stands apart through authentic Finnish craftsmanship and award-winning design. Developed by Drop Design Pool in Finland, these outdoor hot tubs are created for real Nordic conditions – built to perform efficiently, look exceptional, and last for decades.
Every spa features a reinforced acrylic shell, supported by a rigid aluminium frame and insulated with 30 mm of polyurethane foam to retain heat even in sub-zero temperatures. This Nordic-grade construction ensures reliable performance year-round while reducing running costs through exceptional energy efficiency. Select wood-fired options deliver the same handcrafted quality and insulation as electric models, while providing an authentic Finnish experience powered purely by natural heat.
Inside, ergonomically moulded seating delivers deep comfort, while select models include hydrotherapy jets that provide a relaxing massage experience. Integrated filtration and UV sanitation systems keep the water clear with minimal upkeep – combining advanced engineering with the simplicity of authentic Finnish design.
While the engineering makes every Drop spa a pleasure to own, it’s the design that makes it unforgettable. These are true architectural centrepieces; each model is a focal point for modern outdoor living. This union of precision performance and understated beauty is what defines the Drop Collection: premium hot tubs that elevate any space they inhabit.
Luxury Hot Tubs to Suit Every Outdoor Space
The Drop Collection offers a range of luxury hot tubs designed to fit perfectly into any outdoor setting.
For smaller courtyards or terraces, the Compact Drop Lampi and Drop Vuolle Compact offer the same premium build and thermal efficiency in a streamlined footprint. The Lampi is also available as a hybrid model, combining an integrated electric heater with a traditional wood-fired stove. This gives users the freedom to heat the tub conveniently at the touch of a button, or to enjoy the authentic Finnish ritual of tending a fire and watching the water warm naturally.
The Drop S and Lähde introduce larger capacities, making them well-suited for families or those who enjoy entertaining. Both models maintain the same Finnish build quality and ergonomic comfort, with the Lähde also available in a hybrid wood-and-electric design.
At the top of the range, the Drop X delivers a truly elevated spa experience. Equipped with the Balboa digital control system, 46 precision massage jets, and elegant LED illumination, it offers the highest level of comfort and control. You can fine-tune temperature and jet intensity with ease, creating a perfectly personalised soak every time.
For purists, the wood-fired Drop Pisara offers a more traditional experience, bringing the ritual of heating water by hand back to life – the perfect complement to an outdoor sauna or natural landscape setting.
Whichever model you choose, every Drop spa offers the same architectural form, premium materials, and low-maintenance design. Optional skirting finishes, insulated covers, and matching accessories make it easy to create a cohesive look that complements your outdoor space. With Finnmark Sauna’s expert installation advice, UK delivery, and aftersales support, finding an outdoor hot tub that fits your lifestyle has never been easier.
Frequently Asked Questions
What are the main differences between electric, wood-fired, and hybrid luxury hot tubs?
Electric outdoor hot tubs are powered by an integrated heater and control system, allowing precise temperature adjustment and simple, push-button operation. Wood-fired models use a log-burning stove to heat the water naturally, offering a more traditional and atmospheric bathing experience without reliance on electricity. Hybrid hot tubs combine both systems – giving you the choice between fast, convenient heating or the slower, ritualistic warmth of wood fire. Each option delivers the same handcrafted quality and thermal insulation, so your choice depends on how you like to heat and enjoy your spa.
Are outdoor hot tubs expensive to run?
Running costs vary depending on size, insulation, usage, and water temperature, but well-insulated outdoor hot tubs are surprisingly efficient. High-quality models with polyurethane insulation and insulated covers retain heat effectively, reducing electricity use. In typical UK conditions, energy-efficient electric hot tubs typically cost £1–£2 per day when maintained at a steady temperature. Wood-fired or hybrid models can cost less to run, using renewable fuel instead of electricity. Regular maintenance also helps minimise heat loss and ongoing costs.
Are Finnish-designed hot tubs better suited to the UK climate?
Yes. Finnish-designed luxury hot tubs are engineered for extreme Nordic conditions, where temperatures regularly drop below freezing. Their reinforced shells, weather-sealed frames, and high-density insulation are built to retain heat efficiently and protect components from moisture and frost. This level of engineering makes them perfectly suited to the variable UK climate, performing just as well through cold winters as they do in mild, rainy seasons.
What maintenance does an outdoor hot tub need?
Maintaining an outdoor hot tub is straightforward with regular care. Filters should be rinsed weekly and replaced periodically, while the water is usually changed every few months depending on usage. UV or cartridge filtration systems simplify cleaning by keeping water clear and fresh. Surfaces can be wiped with non-abrasive spa cleaners to preserve the shell’s finish, and the cover should be kept on when not in use to prevent heat loss or debris build-up. Regular chemical balancing (or manufacturer-approved alternatives) ensures safe, hygienic bathing all year round.
Are premium hot tubs worth the investment?
Yes – luxury hot tubs are built to deliver lasting performance, comfort, and style that justify their higher price point. They use higher-quality materials, stronger insulation, and more reliable components than standard spas, resulting in lower running costs and longer lifespans. The difference lies in the attention to design and engineering detail – from efficient heating systems to carefully moulded interiors that enhance comfort and relaxation. Beyond their build quality, a well-chosen hot tub becomes a lasting addition to your home, adding value, wellness benefits, and a genuine sense of escape for years to come.
Can I combine a sauna and luxury hot tub for a full wellness routine?
Absolutely. Combining a sauna and luxury hot tub creates a complete home wellness experience inspired by Nordic tradition. The contrast between heat and cool – moving from the warmth of a sauna to a refreshing outdoor shower or plunge – invigorates the body and boosts circulation. Finishing with a soak in your hot tub allows muscles to relax deeply and the mind to unwind. This sequence promotes recovery, improves sleep, and encourages calm. Finnmark designs and supplies both authentic outdoor saunas and premium hot tubs, helping you create a seamless, restorative wellness space at home.
