These waterproof floating lights for playing in the hot tub with kids come in sets of 1, 2, 4, 8, or 12 so you can get however many you need or want. They are about the size of a tennis ball, but they have a flat bottom so they can sit on a flat surface when they are not floating in your hot tub.

It's no secret that kids love playing with brightly colored things that light up, so these are a great option for something to play with in the hot tub too! These bright ball-shaped lights are vibrantly colored and actually make soaks more fun for the whole family in our experience. Is it safe to hang string lights over a hot tub? While hanging decorative lights around your hot tub creates a dreamy atmosphere, never hang string lights directly over the water. If a bulb breaks, you could get glass in your spa—plus electricity and water do not mix. These lights are 100% solar so you never need to worry about replacing annoying batteries. Just make sure they are placed somewhere that they get at least 4-6 hours of direct sunlight and you'll be lighting up the night as soon as the sun goes down. Lights are a great way to bring some fun to your hot tub without spending a fortune. This list includes some of our favorite hot tub light options in all the most important areas so you can see for yourself what each could look like, and decide what will be best for your spa. The only downside of relying on string lights to decorate your hot tub area is that you are limited to what you can hang them from, because you are relying on the structures around your hot tub to hang the lights. This may mean putting up a few poles or posts just to get the lights where you want. Also, you will need access to a power outlet close by as these are not battery powered. Final thoughtsOf course, you can always mix and match these different styles including floating colored lights, string lights, and outside patio lights to create the hot tub of your dreams, right in your own home. Whether you want a budget option, a fun option, or a relaxing ambiance, there is something for everyone on this list. Another important (and often overlooked) lighting option to consider for your hot tub is the in-ground lights to light the area around or leading to your hot tub! These solar garden lights are the perfect way to create a soft glow, so you can see where you're going and create a nice ambiance. The floating hot tub lights are very pretty colors so your kids will enjoy tossing them around or even naming colors as they play with them. They also just make a great decoration if you want to leave them in your hot tub as a unique decoration when your kids are done with them.

We love these solar pathway lights for a hot tub area because the unique pattern in the light creates a pretty pattern on your grass or walkway. This means that they are not just a light source, but also a decoration for your hot tub area as well.
