Serving Del Mar, CA

Hot Tubs & Swim Spas for Del Mar Shoppers

Del Mar is a short run up the coast and inland to our Escondido showroom, and the trip is worth it here more than almost anywhere, because Del Mar yards are tight enough that the model you choose and the access you have are the same decision. We would rather you sit in it and measure first.

Why Del Mar Shoppers Visit Our Escondido Showroom

Del Mar is the coastal city at the mouth of the San Dieguito River, on Camino del Mar between the lagoon and the bluffs, west of Interstate 5.

We don't have a branch in Del Mar. The showroom that serves you is Escondido, at 499 N. Hale Ave, which is where you can see these running with water in them. Call that store direct on (760) 683-2171.

Del Mar Neighborhoods We Deliver To

Old Del Mar is the historic core, and Stratford Square, the city's first retail center, was built there in 1927. North Del Mar runs along the beach west of Highway 101. The North Beach Area, from 29th Street to the Solana Beach border, is the stretch locals call Dog Beach. Sea Grove Park and Powerhouse Park sit on the bluff above the sand. Soledad Valley cuts in at the south of the city. One distinction is worth getting right, because it decides who permits your work: Del Mar Heights is the area the City of San Diego incorporated, not part of the City of Del Mar. If your address is Del Mar Heights you are a San Diego parcel with a Del Mar mailing identity, and the permit comes from San Diego Development Services.

The Homes and Backyards in Del Mar

Del Mar's housing is defined by the bluffs and by the 1959 decision to stay low-rise. What that produces is a town of small parcels, many of them stepped down a slope toward the water, on streets that were laid out before anyone thought about getting a seven-foot shell into a back yard. The parcels nearer the lagoon and the flats are the straightforward ones. The bluff lots are not: the bluffs along the south beach are subject to collapse, and the Surf Line railway runs along those same bluffs about forty feet above the beach for 1.7 miles, with relocation under study. A bluff-side yard is usually reached by steps, and steps are the thing a spa cart cannot do.

Why Del Mar Homeowners Choose a Hot Tub or Swim Spa

Del Mar is small in a way that matters for this. The city covers 1.72 square miles of land and the 2020 census counted 3,954 people in 2,574 housing units, a quarter of which were vacant. It incorporated on July 15, 1959, largely to stop the high-rise development that had already happened in La Jolla. So this is a town that chose to stay low and small, with the fairgrounds since 1936 and the racetrack since 1937 as its only large structures. The back yards match. A spa here is almost never about a cold night, because there are not many. It is about getting more out of a small outdoor space on an expensive piece of ground.

Getting a Spa Into a Del Mar Backyard

Assume a crane conversation until a photograph says otherwise. This is the hardest delivery area we cover, not because of the distance but because of the geometry: small lots, houses sited close to the line, streets with limited frontage, and back yards that step down rather than run flat. Where there is a side yard it is usually the original width, not a modern setback, so measure the clear gap and subtract the meter, the hose bib and the fence posts before you assume a cart fits. Send us a photograph of the side gate and the whole run behind it, plus one of the yard from the house, and we will tell you whether this is a walk-in or a lift before you order rather than on the day.

Using It Year-Round in Del Mar

The mildest place we deliver, and the only one where the cold-night argument barely applies. Mediterranean-subtropical, averaging about 65 degrees across the year. Temperatures exceed 85 only on a few occasions and rarely drop below 41, which is the narrowest band of anywhere we deliver. What that mildness means in practice is the longest comfortable season on this list, in both directions.

Common Questions From Del Mar

Can you get a spa into a Del Mar back yard?
Often, but it needs checking first and more often than anywhere else we serve the answer involves a crane. Lots are small, houses sit close to the property line, and bluff-side yards are usually reached by steps rather than a flat run. Send us a photo of the side gate and the path behind it and we will tell you before you buy.
I am in Del Mar Heights. Is that the same thing?
For permits, no. Del Mar Heights is the area the City of San Diego incorporated, so it is a San Diego parcel and the electrical permit comes from San Diego Development Services rather than the City of Del Mar. We deliver to both the same way.
Is it even worth a spa in a climate this mild?
Different reason than inland. Del Mar rarely drops below 41 degrees, so this is not about surviving a cold night. It is about using a small outdoor space more of the time, and about hydrotherapy, which does not care what the thermometer says.
My house is on the bluff. Does the erosion matter?
It matters for where the spa sits, and that is a question for your own engineer rather than for us. A filled spa is heavy, and on a bluff parcel the placement needs to be somewhere the ground can carry it. We will tell you the filled weight of any model you are considering so you can hand a real number to whoever is advising you.
