There’s something magical about getting the girls together for a relaxing night in. There is no need for crowded bars or loud restaurants when you’ve got everything you need right in your own backyard, especially if you have one of the luxurious spa pools from Jet Spas in Tauranga, or in fact anywhere in New Zealand! Hosting a girls’ night in with your spa pool is not just about soaking in warm bubbles. It’s about connection, laughter, and creating memories that’ll be talked about for years.
Setting the Scene: The Ultimate Girls’ Night In
Imagine this: It’s a Friday night. You’ve lit your backyard with soft, ambient lights. There’s a tray of drinks chilling nearby, scented candles flickering, and mellow music playing in the background. Your best friends are arriving, each one welcomed with a plush towel and a cheeky mocktail (or cocktail, if you’re that kind of crew).
Your spa pool is the star of the show, steaming, inviting, and ready for an evening of indulgent relaxation. That’s the beauty of owning one of the top-quality Jet Spa’s spa pools in Tauranga, as it transforms your space into a five-star retreat.
The Secret Ingredient? Your Spa Pool
A spa pool adds a touch of luxury and comfort that elevates the experience. Whether you’re soaking under the stars or indulging in aromatherapy with your favourite essential oils, the experience is heightened. With the range of spa pools Tauranga homeowners can access through Jet Spas NZ, it’s easy to find one that suits your space and lifestyle, making you feel pampered and indulged.
Picture this: It’s your best friend’s birthday; she’s just turned 40 and wants something special but relaxed. No loud bars or big nights out. Instead, she’s decided to host a spa night at her place in Tauranga. You arrive to the soft glow of fairy lights strung through the garden, a gentle playlist humming in the background, and the steam from her spa pool curling into the cool evening air.
There’s a table of delicious treats, grazing platters stacked with cheeses, chocolate-dipped strawberries, and glasses of bubbly ready to go. You and the girls slip into the spa, the warm jets instantly melting away the stress of the week.
As the night goes on, the conversation flows just as easily as the wine. You all laugh, reminisce, and maybe even shed a few happy tears. The stars twinkle overhead, and for a moment, it feels like you’re on holiday at a luxurious resort, except you’re right here, in the comfort of a friend’s backyard. It’s one of those nights you know you’ll all be talking about for years.
If you love to host but don’t love the cleanup, a spa night is a great low-maintenance option. Most of the night is spent in the water, meaning fewer dishes, less clutter, and more time actually enjoying your guests.
This will make you feel relaxed and stress-free, allowing you to fully enjoy the company of your friends.

Make It Yours: Add Your Personal Touch
Tauranga’s mild coastal climate makes it ideal for a host or hostess to do some spa pool entertaining almost all year round, so why not go the extra mile and turn your girls’ night into something truly memorable? A little bit of planning and creativity can transform a simple soak into a spa-inspired experience your friends will never forget.
Start with ambiance. Set the mood with soft outdoor lighting. Think waterproof fairy lights, lanterns, or even LED candles around the edge of the pool. Have a Bluetooth speaker playing chill tunes or a curated playlist of everyone’s favourite throwbacks.
Don’t forget comfort! Provide each guest with a fluffy robe or spa wrap, comfy slippers, and a fresh towel. You could even personalise them with their initials or a fun nickname to add a thoughtful touch.
Looking to add a luxurious twist? Set up a DIY beauty bar. Include face masks, eye gels, hand scrubs, and even hair masks. You could make it a bring-your-own-product setup or provide a selection of goodies from local Tauranga beauty stores or markets.
Here are some more ideas to make your spa night extra special:
- Grazing platters with nibbles, fruits, chocolates, and mocktails or prosecco
- A signature cocktail or mocktail named after the birthday girl or host
- Scent diffusers or essential oils in calming blends like lavender, chamomile, or eucalyptus
- A movie projector playing a feel-good chick flick on a white sheet or screen outdoors
- Spa-themed party favours like bath bombs, scrunchies, or mini lotions
- A gratitude jar, where each guest adds a note about something they love or appreciate about the birthday girl
- Polaroid camera or photo booth area with props to capture fun memories
For another local host, the night was all about self-care. “We each brought our favourite skincare product,” she shared, “and between soaking and sipping, we did face masks and hand scrubs. It was such a pamper night. The spa made everything feel so indulgent, and we never even had to leave the backyard.”
Whether you go all out or keep it simple, your spa pool becomes the heart of a night filled with connection, fun, and relaxation. And that’s what truly makes it special.
