10 Hot Tub Deck Ideas For Inspiration [2024]
While many people choose to put a hot tub on a patio, others opt for a deck. A deck can create the perfect backyard oasis because it allows for space around for people to sit and relax. Of course, everyone’s deck is going to be different depending on the space and look you’re going for. That’s why there are so many different ideas out there to suit just about any scenario.
You don’t need a large space to have a hot tub deck. Many hot tub deck ideas can suit a smaller space too. This is great for people who want to have the best of both worlds, a relaxing hot tub, and some extra area to entertain.
These days, more people are choosing to stay home and are looking for ways to upgrade their space and make it feel more like a vacation. A hot tub deck is one way to make that happen. If you want a deck around your hot tub but just aren’t sure what design to go after, we have 10 simple hot tub deck ideas to get you thinking.
1. Hot Tub Deck with a Lot of Space
If space is not an issue in your yard, you may want to consider an idea like this. This is a recessed hot tub with plenty of room to relax. This design even has built-in mood lighting for that bonus feature.
2. Tiered Hot Tub for a Small Space
Not everyone has a lot of space for a hot tub and deck. That’s why hot tub ideas like this tiered model exist. This is an easy, yet smart way to get some deck space around your hot tub.

Things to Consider about a Hot Tub Deck
If you’re thinking about investing in a hot tub deck, be sure that it is sturdy enough to handle your hot tub, especially if you’re putting it on an existing surface. Also, be sure the deck is on a flat surface for the hot tub for obvious reasons. You want to have enough space to relax and entertain, so sometimes smaller may be better if you can’t accommodate a large deck on a flat surface.
Many people also put a gate around their decks to prevent any accidents. You’ll want to check your local town guidelines when it comes to gates around pools and hot tubs. If you are getting a professional installer, they can also verify the guidelines for you.
