I've wanted a hottub for about 7 yrs .. I always wanted the maldive but the I purchases the santorini back in June and omg it's amazing. I love the built in seats . It's huge !!! I could prob get 8 of me in at ones . I love the lights but they stop working and when I take apart (which is really hard ) to get to the propeller... there is hair wrapped around it . So they do stop working but can be fixed.. I'm so glad I waited and got this tub .. I just wish I could heat with hydrojets on. Be aware its a massive tub and it's expensive to run . Def recommend insulating the bottom of tub and a jacket around and top .. I absolutely love mine and struggle to get out ! Can't wait to use mine in the snow ⛄️. Happy tubbing 😉😊

Great video Adam. I bought the Santorini a couple of weeks ago and absolutely love it. Your right about the noise especially with the bubbles, a tad noisy and something I’m sure they could sort out in the future.

Just set ours up today. We had a smaller inflatable one before this that was a good entry level spa. This one really seems a step up!

[OldMan_PJ]

That looks like a great value. We have a SoftTub and it doesn't have seats or as many bubble sources, but it does have a quieter pump (it costs 3-4 times as much.)

Excellent video. Finally a clear and easy hot tub review. Well done

I love your videos. Very informative and your presntation style is perfect.

[TheSpeedDemon]

Great video and helps with us selecting our first hot tub. Regarding the cover, is it polyester or vinyl?

[paulh]

Another great video Adam thank you. By the way is grey your favourite colour grey top grey shorts grey door and grey windows 😂😂😂😎

[slick-rides]

Is the noise level a lot quieter if you just use the hydrojets compared to the air jets? Thanks for the review!

[michellemlmille]

Thanks for this fabulous video it’s been a great help!
Can you please tell me how to get the hydro jet nozzle out to put the jet light in?

[milothechihuahuabrunetandmommy]

Adam iam thinking about getting this one how is it after a year

Hi, congratulations for the video. I wanted to ask you something. I purchased a Bestway Maldives Hydrojet Pro. I notice that the water filtering power is very low. In practice it seems that nothing comes out of the filtered water outlet. In my opinion this function would make the application of products inside the chemconnect useless. Can you explain to me how this filtering system works or if it is normal for a small amount of water to also come out of the hydromassage nozzles when the filtering system alone is turned on? Thanks for any response.

congratulations for the video. I'm considering purchasing this mini-pool, just one question: does the filtering and chlorinator system guarantee good cleanliness of the water for a long time? with the right maintenance obviously. or do I have to change the water often?

[darrellosbourn]

I need to know how to install the underwater lighting for the Santini

[ChloeWarner-do]

Hi Adam! Great video. Would you be able to let me know what the cap on the outside of the liner at the top is for? I thought it was when the water is too high but mine is now leaking air? The hydrojets are also leaking air so I am patching each one up. Only 1 year old but lay z spa won't help as I hire it out. Any advice would be great as its a shame to throw away. Would just use for personal use now. Thank you!

Great vid. They have listen to people i guess about the wifi. I have seen the new 2023 models (included 3 new hydrojet pro's with the best one San Francisco hydrojet pro 230x230 square size) all comes with wifi!

[czarnatom]

I have a question, is there a practically imperceptible stream of water from the water inlet where you put the tablets??

[rtyson]

Gday. Is the heater capable of keeping the water at 35 degrees C through a winter of overnight lows around 8 degrees Celsius. Thanks.
