Hot Spring Spa Aria & Envoy Price now?

<< < (2/3) > >>

Sammi:
I never had the chance to see the Aria or soak in one. After your post I looked at the layout and it seems really nice.  I've had my Envoy for a month now and here's my takeaway without actually seeing or using the Aria.

Our use is primarily 2 person. We've had 3 people in once. While the Envoy has 5 fully submerged seats i wouldn't necessarily want 5 people in the tub. Everyone would have their own seat but 3 people would be playing footsie. Point is I wouldn't want a smaller tub. For the two of us it has lots of seating options, same goes for 3 people.

The captains chair is amazing. Your own personal awesome massage chair from neck to toe. The Aria looks to have a similar option in one of the corner seats. From the image it looks really similar to the back massage offered by the Envoy.  Another aspect of the Aria I like is the cooling seat. I wouldn't consider the Aria a true 5 person tub even though it has 5 seats due to no jets in the cooling seat, but there are times I wish the Envoy had a cooling seat. When I overheat I sit up on the bump in the lounger or sit above the corner seat entirely out of the water.

I think would have been completely 100% satisfied with either spa. My wife on the other hand likes the size of the Envoy even though it is only her and I using it primarily. I laid out the Aria dimensions for her after your post and while the size difference is negligible she said she would never want to go any smaller than the Envoy (this surprised me because the Envoy is spacious for 2).

I do find i use every single seat of the Envoy. I'd probably do the same with the Aria. I realize this info doesn't give you a clear cut winner but I dont think you could wrong with either one.

I was quoted the following in August:

Aria: $13,699 +tax
Envoy: $13,999 +tax

Price included Freshwater Salt System, steps, cover, Cover Cradle II, sub panel, and starter kit.  I absolutely would opt for the Envoy.  The seating versatility and extra depth is worth the small cost increase. You do give up the cooling platform, though, as mentioned by Sammi.

Prices above would increase if you purchase a pre-ordered tub or if you purchase a floor model.  There is definitely a premium for shorter wait times.

I am in the market for either an Aria or Envoy tub and would love to hear what a fair price would be these days (Jan 2021).  I live in the Boston area and received a pre-tax quote on the Aria from NE Spas for $17,700 (no financing, standard delivery, salt system, steps, cover, and lifter). The folks at Mainely Spas had that same model for $15,999, however, I am outside their delivery and service area, so I can't get it from them. Unfortunately, I haven't found another Hot Spring dealer in the Boston area. This quote for $17,700 feels way to too high. I've asked if there is any room to negotiate, but they haven't been willing to make a better offer.

Thanks in advance for any advice or suggestions from this group of savvy Hot Spring fans.

Much appreciated.

North or South of Boston?  Did you try the folks at oasis in Manchester NH?  If you are open to Caldera let me know and I can possibly help depending on exactly where you are located

I just got back from putting in my deposit on the Envoy. I'm in upstate NY and it was $14,500 out the door with salt system, steps, cover, cover lifter, electrical panel, and starter pack. Put $500 down to reserve and expected about mid-summer but we'll see on that. I'm expecting it'll be later.

I went into the dealer fully expecting to put my deposit on the Bullfrog A7L but we saw the Envoy and liked it better so that's what we went with. I don't think $14,500 is a great price but that is out the door so I feel it's a good price. More than fair IMO given the circumstances right now.

Now just need to get through the long wait until it arrives!
