5-Person Hot Tub with a Lounger: What to Compare
The phrase “five-person hot tub” describes capacity, not the experience of each seat. Lounger count changes conversation space, leg room and the overall footprint more than many first-time buyers expect.

One lounger or two?
Haven 5 combines one lounger with four upright seats. Retreat 5 has two loungers and three upright seats. The first layout favors conversation and flexible seating; the second gives two people dedicated reclined positions.
- Choose one lounger when upright social seating is the priority
- Choose two loungers when two regular users want reclined hydrotherapy
- Consider body height and buoyancy when evaluating any lounger shape
Compare the space and water
Haven 5 measures 83.9 × 83.9 × 37.4 inches and holds 343 gallons. Retreat 5 measures 94.5 × 86.6 × 37.4 inches and holds 423 gallons. Both are listed for five people, but they have different backyard footprints and operating volumes.
- Haven 5: one lounger, four upright seats, 38 hydrotherapy jets
- Retreat 5: two loungers, three upright seats, 39 total jets
- More water generally means more weight and a larger volume to heat and maintain
