"As hot tub enthusiasts, we know that regular hot tub use provides many positive physical and emotional benefits," explains Shelly Roberts, Caldera Spas Brand Manager. "That's why we've been designing our hot tubs for comfort and reliability for nearly 40 years. The Makena model delivers on both, and it's a beautifully-styled six person spa that the whole family can spend time in and enjoy together."

"The backlit Acquarella™ waterfall and underwater LED "points of light" [watch a video] are just two style features that add to multi-sensory enjoyment, especially at night, enhancing the spa experience and backyard ambiance," said Roberts.

The right fit and relief where it's needed
Measuring 7' 5" x 7' 5" x 36", the lounge spa seats up to 6 adults and includes the signature Caldera Hot Tub Circuit Therapy® [watch a video]. Featuring 46 well-placed massage jets, the Makena hot tub provides therapeutic healing to tired muscles and joints. The Makena lounge spa is uniquely contoured to cradle the body, promoting complete relaxation, even when using the powerful jets. Designed to accommodate people of varying heights, the lounge also features specialized Sole Soothers® jets to help refresh tired feet.

An energy efficient hot tub
The Makena is designed for comfort and style [interactive 360° view], and also for cost-effective operation. The spa's proprietary FiberCor® insulation, providing four-times the density of urethane foam insulation used in most hot tubs, is part of the innovative EnergyPro® system that keeps water hot and ready when needed. For added peace of mind, the system conforms to strict California Energy Commission (CEC) energy certification standards.

Clean water made easy
The Makena™ hot tub delivers many benefits, including an easy way to maintain fresh, clear water. Using bromine with minerals, the integrated dual cartridge FROG™ water care system [watch video] conveniently sanitizes spa water without traditional "measure and pour" chemicals.

Now with Bluetooth® Technology
The Makena is available with the optional Caldera wireless audio system designed for use with any Bluetooth-enabled device.  Available with an optional iPod® and iPhone® -ready dock, the Makena sound system allows owners to transmit music from almost any source in their home, deck or backyard.

The new Makena is available only through authorized Caldera Spas dealers. For more information or to locate a local Caldera dealer for hot tub prices, visit CalderaSpas.com.
