New Spa to another happy Client

We bought our first spa pool from Spa City Spas 15 years ago. It has served us very well, and we were able to sell it on. Regularly serviced by Michael, it was still it great working order, however it was time to upgrade. After much consultation and research we chose a new large spa pool for our site – the Sapphire My Delight. It ticks all the boxes for us in terms of exercise, relaxation, massage, cost. It looks great, too. Love the new ozone filter feature. Delivery onsite was a breeze with Michael’s capable oversight. Always helpful, always available, lots of great suggestions – why would you go anywhere else but Spa City Spas. Competitive pricing, too. Great products with great ongoing, friendly service.
