For those looking to enhance their Napier backyard with a spa pool that combines style, versatility, and ease of use, then the Orbiter Spa Pool is a top choice for you. This four-person round spa pool is not just any old spa, it’s a statement piece. With its classic round shape, The Orbiter provides the aesthetics of a traditional hot tub and all the conveniences of a modern spa pool. It’s perfect for families, small gatherings, or intimate relaxation, bringing both style and functionality to your outdoor space whether you live in Napier or anywhere else in NZ.

Why Choose a Round Spa Pool?

The round shape of The Orbiter is not just about looks; it offers functional benefits too. Its circular design makes it easy for people to sit facing each other, encouraging conversation to flow and a shared experience. Also, a round spa also tends to have a more balanced and centralised water flow, which enhances the relaxation experience. The shape blends harmoniously with various garden designs, adding a timeless appeal to any setting. Whether you have a spacious backyard or a cosy outdoor nook, The Orbiter’s compact design will fit beautifully without overwhelming the space.

The History of Spa Pool Shape Design and Round Spa Pool’s Enduring Appeal

Spa pool designs have evolved significantly over the years, transitioning from the traditional wooden tubs that were available to high-tech, energy-efficient modern spas. Despite these innovations, the classic round shape has stood the test of time, earning its place as a timeless favourite in spa pool design. The round spa shape, like The Orbiter, traces its origins to ancient traditions while adapting to meet more contemporary needs.

In fact the earliest hot tubs, used by civilisations such as the Romans and Japanese, were often round in design. This shape was both functional as well as symbolic, promoting communal bathing and representing unity and harmony. The circular layout allowed bathers to face each other, fostering a better social connection, a feature still prized in modern spa pools today.

During the 20th century, as spa pools gained popularity in residential settings, the round design became synonymous with the more traditional wooden hot tubs. These early models emphasised simplicity as well as a natural aesthetic, which resonated with people seeking a rustic, communal soaking experience. Over time, advancements in materials and technology brought changes to spa pool shapes, with rectangular and square designs becoming more common to accommodate jets and maximize seating capacity.

Despite these shifts, the round spa pool has maintained its allure. Its symmetrical design offers a unique aesthetic and practical advantages, including a more balanced water flow as well as ease of installation in various outdoor spaces. The Orbiter Spa Pool exemplifies this legacy by combining the charm of a traditional round spa with the innovative features of a modern spa pool. Its design pays homage to the past while catering to today’s lifestyles, offering a perfect blend of form, function, and tradition for Napier homeowners, in fact homeowners all across New Zealand.
