Do you have an Antigua sam? and if so what did you pay?
Mrlobster. I'm going with lighted waterfall upgrade package. no pillow waterfall's and no sound system. When we wet tested a tub with a radio in it. it had a bunch of calcium deposit's in the speaker cover mesh holes, and I said that looks bad and it's also one more thing I got to clean and possibly fix . It's a 700.00 upgrade that I don't need or want. My spa will be situated 5 ft. off my back porch and will be surrounded by raised garden beds and will be under a beautiful 40 year old maple tree. Since the maple tree blocks 50% of the sky above me. I really can't sky gaze from the spa. What I do have is a 6 ft high wood fence 10/15 ft. south of me and my neighbors kitchen window looking right at me. I'm more concerned with privacy. I'll put up a row of flower boxes just below the top of the fence and plant some tall growing plants to obscure there view. That's the main reason for my gazebo. The gazebo will protect my tub and cover from falling maple branches and snow etc. It will also give me the option to completely block my neighbor's view of my back yard with the curtains on the gazebo. Funny thing is, there kitchen window is THEE only one without curtains on the entire house...Grrrrr :-[ When I sit in my tub I want the jets going full blast and water temp on the high side for a really good, deep tissue massage, the last thing I want is a radio that you have turned up louder than the jet noise just to hear it. If I just soak, I'll like the peace and quiet while surrounded by my raised garden beds. The gazebo I originally was looking at was 10x12 for 1200.00 but looking at the roof, it was made of plastic, and wouldn't last. The other one had a metal roof but was 1600.00. I've got a cheap 100.00 canopy 10x10 with curtains, but soft type roof. I'll try that one first when they drop the tub off. If I like the look and feel of that, I'll go and get the hard top version. We shall see, I still have to dig the base yet and put the foundation in. I'll order the tub next week and it should arrive around late Sept.
The thing I'm working out now is what kind of base do I want or what is best, concrete, lumber, or pavers. I'm leaning to concrete pad and 2 concrete walkways on either side of the tub and if I get the gazebo, I can bolt it right to the concrete.
Antigua Elite 84x84" in the Tuscan Sun shell, taupe exterior and cover, upgrade lighting package with piston assisted cover lifter, extra chemicals, and delivered for 9300.
I'm really getting excited, my very own personal 24 hr. masseuse, always on call and only steps away. 8)
Sam:
I don't personally have an antigua but have been in one multiple times. The last antigua elite that we sold it was in the mid $10k range. You price, with all that is included, is a very good deal.
