Had a great experience with David at Aquafun. Worth the drive to Crofton. All the staff was incredibly knowledgeable while we replaced some jets and filter parts and so friendly, everyone pitched in to help! Will definitely make the drive next time we need supplies.
Response from the owner:Samantha thanks for the feedback. Thanks for making the trip to Crofton and getting the parts you needed. Glad David and the rest of the team there was able to help you out. Happy Tubbing!
Great customer service, Eric is very knowledgable about our old hot tub.
Response from the owner:Thank you so much for taking the time to leave us a review, Alex! We’re so glad to hear that Eric was able to share his knowledge and help with your hot tub. We’ll make sure he sees your feedback. Happy Tubbing!
Stopped at the Parksville location on a Saturday of a long weekend when the store was actually closed. Sabrina happened to be in doing some work and was on her way out but took the time to get the items we needed, including a new cover lifter and showing us different filter options. Outstanding customer service and we look forward to our next visit.
Response from the owner:Thanks for the positive review, A & D, glad you were able to catch Sabrina at the store and she was able to help you get what you needed, even though we were technically closed; she’s the best. Happy Tubbing!
Thank you to John Keirstead Arctic Spa for his ongoing support for Arctic Spa users and support . I had a sudden issue with my Ocean Swim Spa of 5 years old and John was there for me all the way to the fix. Dedication to their product is very much appreciated.
Response from the owner:Thank you so much for your kind words! We’re happy to hear that John was able to help and that your Ocean Swim Spa is back in great shape. We truly appreciate your continued trust in Arctic Spas and are always here to support you whenever you need. Happy Tubbing!
We were very impressed with ASVI - Parksville. Sabrina was very professional and helpful when we were looking at our hot tub options. On delivery day, Paul and Goran were on time and Goran explained how to maintain/use our tub in an easy-to-understand manner.

The whole process from start to finish was completed seamlessly. We wouldn't hesitate to recommend ASVI to anyone looking for a hot tub.
Response from the owner:Thank you so much for your recommendation! We’re thrilled to hear that you had such a smooth experience from start to finish. Sabrina, Paul, and Goran will be so happy to know their efforts made a difference. We hope you enjoy every soak in your new hot tub! Happy Tubbing!
Technician Eric Aasen provided a full service of our hot tub on Friday last. Despite the horrible rain that poured down, he remained cheery throughout the operation. He worked very efficiently and was very knowledgeable - fully addressing our questions and concerns. We highly recommend him and Arctic Spas Duncan.
Response from the owner:Thanks for taking the time to post this review Carmel, and sharing your experience with Eric and our team. Thank you for your recommendation and Happy Tubbing!
Came into parksville location thinking that I needed to spend hundreds of dollars to buy a part to clear an error that kept recurring on my system. Tanya looked us up on the computer and suggested that we should first update our software and see if issue was solved. It was! Thanks Tanya.
Response from the owner:Thanks Kim, we are pleased that Tania was able to get you sorted without the need to spend! Happy Tubbing!

Jenny in Victoria went the extra mile in her first few days working for Arctic Spas on Quadra St. I left without purchasing a product I needed for my annual salt water change that I was doing that day. Jenny had called me before I got too far away from the store and I was able to quickly turn around and come back. With her expertise she reminded me that I needed the Spa Boy Salt Cell and left without purchasing it. This quick call saved me that whole day in time and I was enjoying my hot tub again that evening.
Thank you very much, Mike.
Response from the owner:Thank you, Mike! We’re so glad Jenny was able to catch you in time and get you everything you needed for your salt water change. We’ll be sure to share your kind words with her. Happy Tubbing!
Eric from Arctic Spa service department came to diagnosis issues with our hot tub.

Thank you Arctic Spas for sending Eric to attend to our needs.
Response from the owner:Thanks Christine, thanks for taking the time to leave a review and for the positive feedback on our technician Eric; he really knows his stuff and every customer's Smartfriend. Happy Tubbing!
I want to thank Arctic Spas for a great experience receiving my new salt water spa. I applaud John's enthusiasm and knowledge, Caroline's ongoing help with all my questions, and the delivery was amazing and stressfree, thanks to Paul and Sam.

We had Goran come to pick up our pool pump on Monday as it was leaking and making weird noises. He explained that the noise was from the bearings and the seal was gone and told us the shop would be closed next week and hoped he could have it fixed before then. He went out of his way to get it done and brought it back and hooked it up two days later. We are so appreciative of his great service; thank you!
Response from the owner:Thank you so much for your kind words and 5-star review! We're thrilled to hear that Goran was able to provide such prompt and helpful service. We’ll be sure to pass along your appreciation to him—he always goes the extra mile for our customers. We're so glad your pool pump is back up and running smoothly. Thanks again for choosing us and for taking the time to share your experience!
Eric came out to solve a non-working pump problem and I was fully expecting a big bill to replace it. He quickly diagnosed a capacitor had failed and replaced that instead. No fuss, no mess and gone in 60 seconds! Fastest tech in the west!
Response from the owner:Thanks so much for the great review! We're glad Eric was able to quickly diagnose the issue and save you from a bigger repair. “Fastest tech in the West” made our day—we’ll be sure to share that with him! Happy Tubbing!
Impressed with our recent spa service from Eric who rearranged his schedule day of service to accommodate us and we are very grateful. We bought our spa in 2019 and were having our annual check up.

Response from the owner:Thanks for posting your positive comments, Jennifer. We are happy that Eric was able to accommodate your "Check Up" and get everything sorted for another year. Happy Tubbing!
Very knowledgeable and polite. Caroline answered all our questions clearly and without any sales pressure. We thought the spas were out of our price range but she showed us the Be Well spas and we couldn't be happier with our purchase. We enjoy it every chance we get.
Response from the owner:Thanks for taking the time to post s review on Google. Super that Caroline was able to guide you to the perfect spa for your needs and budget, she really is a Smartfriend. Happy Tubbing!

We have had our Wolverine since 2019 and we love it!
We recently needed to schedule a diagnostic service call as a result of complications from a power outage.
Eric was fantastic. He assessed the issue very quickly and fixed the problem. He was polite, informative and efficient. He was very knowledgeable and provided additional care and maintenance advice over and above fixing the original issue.
Thank you for your excellent support and service!
Response from the owner:Thank you so much for sharing this! We’re thrilled to hear how much you’re still loving your Wolverine after all these years. We really appreciate you trusting us to help when that power outage caused issues. Eric will be so happy to hear your feedback, he’s fantastic.

We bought a Kodiac spa and couldn't be happier. The sales people (Andrew and Caroline) were welcoming and informative with no pressure. We even got to try it out before purchasing. The delivery team (Paul, Sam and Goran) did a flawless job; on time and placed carefully exactly as we planned. There are things to learn with a new hot tub and the support from Tania and Andrew has been friendly, clear and concise. We are using our hot tub every day! Just want to add that I've had the occasion to call Tania Gray for customer support and she has been excellent. She is friendly, knowledgeable and very helpful!
Response from the owner:Wow Gordon, that is a fantastic review! You have been dealing with a good portion of our team and I am very happy to hear that you're pleased with the efforts of them all. Nothing could make us happier...Happy tubbing!

Had a very professional house service call today to diagnose and repair my 2020 Arctic Spa ( Arctic Fox model). I really appreciated the technician , Matt Smith, taking the time to explain his service procedures , and pro tips for managing the spa.

Caroline really helped me out the other day when my spa's probe was acting up. I came in at the end of the day and she stayed late to help assess my issue and offer a few things to try, including some great DIY tips that ended up solving my problem, which saved me a lot of time and money. She was also courteous enough to follow up with me the next day via email to let my know my PH was a bit high but that otherwise she was happy to see the probe was working again. Also a big thanks to Devon, who is always available to help with my water chemistry questions.
Response from the owner:What a wonderful review Nicole. Nothing makes our team better than hearing positive feedback from the customers we serve. Happy Tubbing!

We recently moved to Duncan and wanted to become first-time spa owners. We did a lot of research online, we watched for deals both in refurbished and new tubs, and we sat in a lot of tubs in showrooms.

We went with the Be Well M420 spa (Canadian-made in Quebec!) from Artic Spas Vancouver Island (Duncan). We're thrilled with the way this brand has insulated wall panels rather than spray foam insulation on the tub. This makes it MUCH easier to access the components if repairs are needed on hoses or jets. Also love the reinforced, self-supporting fiberglass shell on the tub that allows heat generated by the pumps to be transferred into the tub. We really wanted a salt-water system as it does feel so nice on the skin, and this tub is set-up with a straight-forward salt-water system from the start (not a conversion.) And of course having 73 jets is awesome, and we've been loving the multiple height seats as we move around the tub.

We had an absolutely fantastic customer service experience from Marc Gibeau -- he really knows his stuff and took the time to go through all the details on the spas in a friendly and knowledgeable but not-pushy way.

Solid, responsive communication from Tania Gray resulted in a delivery date for our in-stock spa in under two weeks, in time for our family arriving for the holidays!

Paul and his delivery team were on-time, efficient and ensured the tub was placed exactly where we wanted it. We have a very steep gravel driveway, but they made it look effortless.

And I want to give special recognition to our Service Tech Eric Aasen who took the time to explain how everything worked, from the controls to water balancing so that we feel confident in running our the tub to prolong its lifespan.

We have been using our new tub every day and are so very happy with it. If you're waffling about a new spa, Artic Spas Vancouver Island is the right choice. And yes, this is a completely independent review without perks or compensation. We're just genuinely happy customers.
Response from the owner:Wow Nicki, that is a great review. Thanks for taking the time to post and for sharing your experience. So happy that our team was able to find you the right spa and to get it set up quickly so you can have that much more fun during the holidays & for the rest of the year too! We will be sure to let the staff know that you were pleased. Happy Tubbing!
Thanks ASVI for the thorough and easily digestible learning hub. This will be a great tool for our customers in Colorado and really any customers across the world with questions about hot tub ownership!
Response from the owner:Thanks Andy! We appreciate the feedback on our learning hub, we hope it’s helpful for your customers in Colorado. Happy tubbing all!
Nice tubs, nice staff and Eric is a cool dude for maintenance if you need it! Cheers
Response from the owner:Thanks for the 5 Stars! Eric will be happy to hear it. Happy Tubbing!
Goran Jandric provided excellent service.
Response from the owner:Thank you Jurgen for taking the time to post a positive review. We will share your comments with Goran. Happy Tubbing!

We recently bought a Arctic Spa hot tub from Marc..he was very pleasant, knowledgeable and great to deal with. He arranged for a prompt delivery/install after giving us very clear instructions
on what we needed to do to prepare our site and arrange electric hookup,
before Christmas and Tanya, with her efficient organizing made it happen a day earlier than expected! Paul and Mathew cheerfully delivered our Tub during a torrential rain storm! but they had all the tools and knowledge to make it happen, under miserable wx. conditions.
Thank you! We love our Tub!!

We had technician Goran Jandric come to our house to fix a problem we were having with the Arctic spa app. He was very professional and very experienced and on time. He did some troubleshooting and knew exactly what the problem was. Changed an electronic part. I had to re-register my spa on the app and now it works fine. I am an advocate of Arctic spas and would highly recommend them if you are looking for a spa especially on Vancouver island. Very pleased.
Response from the owner:Thanks Larry! We appreciate the positive feedback and we will make sure Goran’s efforts are noted with the rest of our team. We are pleased that he was able to get your tub working and re-registered again. Happy Tubbing!

I recently called Arctic Spas in Parksville from the U.S. with questions about the Saltwater Generator system, as I was having a hard time getting clear answers from my local dealer. Sabrina was absolutely wonderful—despite having no financial incentive to assist me, she went out of her way to provide detailed support and guidance on what steps to take next. Her professionalism, kindness, and willingness to help truly stood out.

I highly recommend Arctic Spas for any of your hot tub needs. I only wish this location were closer to home!

Thank you, my Canadian friends—especially Sabrina—for the exceptional service!
Response from the owner:Thank you so much for your kind words! We’re so glad Sabrina was able to support you—she truly goes above and beyond, and your feedback means the world to us. Even from across the border, it’s wonderful to hear we could help clarify things with your Saltwater Generator system.

We bought a used Arctic Wolverine, but from the service we get from Arctic Spas Duncan, you would have thought we bought 3 tubs and ordered 4 more!!! They greet us by name, give us excellent advice, always have the items we need in stock, and spend as much time required with us, we never feel rushed!! Love this store!
Response from the owner:Thank you so much for your kind words! We're thrilled to hear you're enjoying your Arctic Wolverine and that our Duncan team has made you feel so supported. We'll be sure to pass your message along to the team—they'll be so happy to hear it! Happy Tubbing!
We purchased our spa in 2019. It was a big choice, but SO WORTH!!! The water is SO easy to maintain. With tubs we had in the past I would be changing water every couple of months due to in balanced water. The Spa boy system makes it beyond easy to maintain your water. I would never choose a different spa again. Well worth the investment.
Response from the owner:Thank you Trakeith for your positive comments. We are glad that you are enjoying the ease of maintenance that SpaBoy provides. Anyone in particular stand out in our organization that made your experience exceptional? Happy Tubbing!
Paul and Matt delivered our first hot tub a few days ago. I was so impressed with their ability to manage the fitment of the tub how we wanted on our property, and both their knowledge and guidance with the systems involved. These tubs are obviously well made and efficient, but their quality components and layout offers ease of inspection and maintenance. The tub has quickly become a beloved part of our existence, and we are sleeping better after our sessions. Thanks Arctic Spas!
Response from the owner:Thank you for the review, Adrian! We are so glad to hear that your new spa is already becoming a valuable part of your routine. Paul and Matt are experts at spa deliveries and will be happy to hear you were pleased with their service. Thanks again for choosing Arctic. Happy Tubbing!

Saved us cost and provided a better routine for keeping the tub balanced.
Response from the owner:We’re so glad to hear John was able to help! Finding the right chemical routine makes all the difference in keeping your spa balanced and enjoyable. Thank you for sharing your experience with us and Happy Tubbing!
The team at Arctic Spas in Duncan is so good! We've had our Eagle Spa for a few years now. Mark is always happy to answer my questions in the showroom. Tania was reassuring and helpful when I placed my first service call recently, and Eric was just here checking on things. The issue was minor, easily remedied, and Eric was friendly, professional and informative. Thank you all 🙂
Response from the owner:Thank you for the kind words! We’re so glad to hear Mark, Tania, and Eric were able to help make your experience a great one. We appreciate your trust in us and your Eagle Spa. Happy Tubbing!
We are loving our beautiful Arctic Spas hot tub. John and the team were amazing to deal with. Grateful for all of their guidance.
Response from the owner:Thank you for the 5 stars! We are so glad to hear you are loving your spa and that you had a great experience with us. Happy Tubbing!
We have always received first rate service from the manager, John and his outstanding staff. Particularly we appreciate the personal care that John has shown us over the years, from our purchase of our Arctic Fox Spa during the start of COVID and through to the present. A shout out to technicians Mark and Sam who installed our spa and have done service work when our understanding of setting variables on the App were more than fuzzy. Great service by all. Thank you
Response from the owner:Thank you Bryan for taking the time to leave some positive feedback for our team, we will share your praise with them and of course we will always be there for you if you any help or advice. Happy Tubbing!
I have been very happy with my Artic Fox. Just right for our family and runs perfectly.

Always able to get any (and there hasn’t been much) products I need from the Parksville store.
Highly recommend going with a salt water spa.
Response from the owner:Thanks for taking the time to leave us a review Earl! So glad you are enjoying your Arctic Fox and that your local Parksville Store has been able to help you out. Happy Tubbing!
Matt did a great job with my hot tub and appree er cute him sharing some of his knowledge!
Response from the owner:Thanks for the review Darcy, we will share your praise with Matt. Happy Tubbing!
Amazing experience!
This store has a great selection of hot tubs, perfect for any terrace or backyard. The staff is incredibly polite, helpful, and knowledgeable. I felt truly welcomed and well taken care of. Highly recommended for anyone looking to invest in a quality hot tub and excellent customer service!
Response from the owner:Thank you so much for the kind words! We're thrilled to hear you had such a great experience with us. Our team takes a lot of pride in helping customers find the perfect hot tub for their space, and it’s wonderful to know you felt welcomed and supported throughout. We truly appreciate the recommendation. Happy Tubbing!
I scheduled a visit to troubleshoot some issues with our 7 year old hot tub.
Eric reached out an hour before getting here, which I requested and needed to be able to get here from work.

Very, and I mean very promptly had his tools down to the back yard, tub panels open and... comically confirmed the issue he had said it likely was as he was unloading and getting ready.

Eric was great. I had to be there because we needed to test some connectivity issues with my phone and the spa boy. I was trying so hard not to be the "staring over his shoulder guy" but he is so inviting and knowledgeable. He showed me and talked me through operations of different things in our spa including the issues we were having and other neat tidbits that help to provide all our enjoyment with the hot tub!

We have another simple issue with one of the fountains but it will nee to be done when we empty and change the water. Its simple but i can tell from whatvhe showed me, will be a bit cumbersome and annoying working in a tight spot to replace and replumb piping in some tight quarters.

All I sensed from Eric though, was a positive explanation on how he will do it and the only thing standing in his way, is we will need the tub emptied so pipes are free of water (ps... VERY simple issue with one of the 4 fountains havig developed a clog!).

Monica and Tania were easy to deal with at the schediling end of things. Marc is always there in the Duncan Store front and helped me with some earlier info before i had things fully scheduled.

Sorry, had to say a lot above here because I got a lot! We know with absolute, 100% certainty, we use our spa way, and I mean WAY more than average folks. Arctic Spas has designed and produced an absolute industry leading spa and tremedously easy to service.

They surround it with excellent salespeople, efficient admin for service and most inportantly, very personable, knowledeable technicians tweaking little issues and setting them right!

And let me give John a little thumbs up too! The little videos online are great. Giving info on things that might stretch out 2-6 months more use on an salt cell and just nice stuff for some of the DIY people out there, saving them a buck instead of only relying on service calls... fantastic.

Thanks.
Brad Beals
Response from the owner:Hi Brad, Thank you so much for taking the time to share such a detailed review. This absolutely made our day to read! We’re thrilled to hear that Eric was able to confirm the issue so quickly and walk you through everything. He really is fantastic at not only diagnosing, but helping customers understand their spa and feel confident in it, so it’s wonderful to hear you felt that. We’ll make sure Monica, Tania, Marc and John all see your kind words as well. The whole team works hard to make owning an Arctic Spa as easy and enjoyable as possible, and feedback like this means everything. Whenever you're ready to drain for that small fountain repair, just reach out and we’ll get it taken care of for you. Thank you again for choosing Arctic Spas, and we love hearing that you’re getting so much use and enjoyment out of your spa! Warm regards, The Arctic Spas Team
Thanks to Matthew Smith for installing a new processor on my Wolverine. Also the process of making a review is unwieldy. Should be a tab thats says make new review.
Response from the owner:Thanks for the positive review Jon. Sabrina mentioned that you have had your All Weather Pool for 11 years and are still loving it…always nice to hear that from our customers…Happy Tubbing!
Huge thanks to Sabrina from arctic spas in Parksville for connecting me with Devon from aquafun pool & spa who provided help and guidance that enabled me to complete repairs on my own to the heater and eco pack on my cub prestige spa. Arctic spas have always provided excellent service and is by far the best hot tub I have ever owned and I have owned many different tubs over the past 40 years. The arctic salt water spas with spa boy kit is the only hot tub I would recommend!
Response from the owner:Thank you so much for your kind words and thoughtful review! We're thrilled to hear that Sabrina and Devin were able to support you in getting your spa back up and running. It's always our goal to empower our customers with the right guidance and service, and we’re glad that came through for you. We’re especially honoured by your recommendation—coming from someone with decades of hot tub experience, that means the world to us. Happy Tubbing!
It was a while ago (Oct) now, but Goran Jandric came to help with a problem with a newly installed heater for my hot tub on Gabriola. He was very knowledgeable and very pleasant to deal with. Problem was fixed in no time. Thanks Goran
Response from the owner:Thank you for sharing this! We’re so glad Matt was able to get your hot tub fixed quickly and leave a great impression. We’ll be sure to pass along your kind words to him. Happy Tubbing!
Jenny's awesome! Go talk to her about the latest hot tub products.
Response from the owner:Thank you so much for the kind words! We couldn’t agree more.. Jenny is fantastic. We’re glad to hear you had a great experience learning about our latest hot tub products. Happy Tubbing!
My first time in the place and the sales rep Sabrina was super helpful with finding the items I needed plus offered a lot of advice and info for someone new to managing a hot tub! Thank you
Response from the owner:Thanks for the positive feedback Gabrielle. Sabrina is your Smartfriend in the hot tub business for sure. Happy that she got you sorted. Happy Tubbing!
Great service call from Eric Aasen. Friendly, efficient, knowledgeable, and great service! He also went the extra mile and answered all my questions. Thankyou Eric!
Tom Jones, Nov 29/24
Response from the owner:Thanks for leaving us some positive feedback, we are please that Eric went the extra mile and got all your questions answered. Happy Tubbing!
Marc Gibeau in Duncan is very helpful anytime I require assistance with my hot tub. His experience, knowledge and overall customer service is fantastic!
Response from the owner:Thanks for taking the time to post a positive review and for praising Marc for his customer service. We will be sure to let him know you are pleased. Happy Tubbing!
Just had my arctic spa fixed by Eric. He did an excellent job and took his time to explain what was wrong with the tub. Have owned the tub for 5 years and it is the first issue we have had. Excellent customer service from the time I called last week until my tub is back up and running. Thank you Eric.
Response from the owner:Thanks for leaving a positive review Caper, and for your comments regarding Eric and our team. Nice to hear that things are back up and running. Happy Tubbing!
So prompt and responsive to my concerns!
Response from the owner:Thanks so much for the review Laurel. Did anyone on our team in particular stand out? Happy Tubbing!
First time trying to clean a pool, I had many questions and was very confused.
Devin, was the pool specialist I talked to. He was extremely helpful! Answered all my questions, pointed me in the right direction. Plus! I have to say as a woman asking questions about something I genuinely knew nothing about, I didn’t feel talked down too, no mansplaining and I wasn’t hit on; I just received help. Seems silly I’m sure to a male person, but this often is the case, and here it was not. Also I needed a pump fixed and they had it done within 24hrs and it’s working perfectly.
Response from the owner:Thank you so much for sharing your experience! We're thrilled to hear that Devin was able to guide you through your first time cleaning a pool with clarity and respect. We take pride in making sure every customer feels comfortable and supported, and it means a lot to know we delivered on that. We’re also glad we could get your pump fixed quickly and have everything running smoothly. We'll be sure to pass your kind words on to Devin!
We purchased the Summit salt water hot tub from Arctic Spa on Quadra. Andrew was amazing!!
I have issues with my skin and could never enjoy using a hot tub until trying a salt water one at Arctic Spa. My skin has never felt better and not dealing with chemicals is fantastic.
I would highly recommend talking to Andrew and finding your perfect match!!
Response from the owner:Thanks for taking the time to post your feedback Laure. Using saline based sanitation has been a real game changer for many people who previously could not use a hot tub due the chemicals and sensitive skin. Sounds like Andrew was truly your Smartfriend, Happy Tubbing!
Sabrina was super helpful and accommodating, and made sure we chose the best spa for our family. Eric and Paul were friendly, efficient, and so knowledgeable during our delivery and set-up. Tub is great so far!
Response from the owner:Thanks Lindsey for taking the time to leave a positive review for us. We will be sure to share this with the team members you interacted with. Fantastic that you for the right tub for you and your family and that you are enjoying it. Happy Tubbing!
One of the best qualities you can have a sales person is for your customers to say they have full trust in you and feel you operate with integrity. It is rare to find that these days, but Ryan delivered on both and I would recommend anyone using him.
Response from the owner:Thanks for taking the time to post your comments online. We agree, Ryan and all our sales staff endeavour to be your SmartFriend; and to find the perfect spa for you! Happy Tubbing!
Excellent tub if you want top quality with minimal maintenance demands and don’t want to soak in a pool of chemicals. They were able to make a plug and play model for us (110 amp service) and it has worked well. Service staff have been helpful, reliable and responsive.
Response from the owner:Thanks Ivan, for taking the time to post this review. Did any of our staff in particular stand out? You have accurately described our goal: “minimal maintenance and not soaking in a pool of chemicals.” Happy Tubbing!
Just wanted to say thanks to Tanya and Matt for great service recently on my Tundra. Love the tub!! Wish the App worked as well as they do!!
Response from the owner:Thank you for the kind words! We’re so glad Tania and Matt took great care of you and that you’re loving your Tundra. Technology can be a little finicky at times, but it’s still better than running out in the rain to check on your spa! The factory is always improving the app, and often it’s as simple as a software update to get the latest fixes. We are always happy to help in the meantime. Happy Tubbing!
We’ve had such a great experience with arctic spas.
From helping us pick out the perfect model for our needs to a great team that came to install the tub and show us how it works! Paul, Matthew and Elijah are friendly and incredibly knowledgeable. A great crew!
Response from the owner:Thank you so much for your kind words! We’re thrilled to hear that you had such a great experience with us. It’s always our goal to make the entire process—from choosing the right model to installation and setup—as smooth and enjoyable as possible. We’ll be sure to pass along your compliments to Paul, Matthew, and Elijah—they’ll be so glad to hear it! Happy Tubbing!
We are in the deciding stage of buying a hot tub or spa and we are pretty keen on salt water so we have been dealing with Arctic Spa. We drove to Parksville to wet test a tub and Sabrina helped us so much. Her knowledge and care was outstanding even though we will be dealing locally. She answered all of our questions and encouraged us to try multiple options. She explained the full line up of tubs and clarified the information on salt water upkeep. Her representation of the company and its products was outstanding. Thank you so much!
Response from the owner:Thanks for the positive feedback on your experience at our Parksville location and in particular, Sabrina. We are happy that see was able to help you navigate your choices, answer your questions and help you with your decision. We are proud that our team works so well with one another regardless of which location is your “local” store. Happy Tubbing!
I’m a new owner of an Arctic Spas Hudson swim spa. This spa is awesome and Tania and Sabrina at Aquafun Pools and Spas have been exceptional in helping me get the spa dialled in perfectly. I also had Eric come by for some service issues. He was early and took care of all of my concerns in an efficient manner.
Response from the owner:Thanks Greg for the positive feedback. We will share your comments with our team. Happy Tubbing!
As usual, Eric did another great job cleaning and servicing my hot tub!
Response from the owner:Thanks for the positive comments Brenda. Glad you were pleased with Eric’s work. Happy Tubbing!
Eric the service technician was very personable and generous in sharing his knowledge. I highly recommend.
Response from the owner:Thank you Michael for the positive comments and your recommendation. We will let Eric know that you were happy with his work. Happy Tubbing!
The boys were fantastic. Andrew L @ Sales, Paul @ Deliveries and Sam @ Tech install were all very helpful and professional. I recommend this company here in Victoria.
Response from the owner:Thanks Arlin. We appreciate the feedback. Nice to see that all aspects from start to finish were up to standard and that you are pleased. We will pass on your kind words. Happy Tubbing!
After researching, viewing different makes/models, and talking to various hot tub sales people, I decided on the Artic tub. Andrew’s information/advice (Victoria store) was accurate vs. misleading info from others. It has been 6 months of enjoyment and I definitely made the right decision on the artic tub, with salt water and spa boy - the best feature with the app. I’m at ease knowing I have Cadillac service with a solid tub. Andrew even remembered my name when popping into the store 6 months later. My experience: ignore sales people who knock salt water and/or Artic tub’s insulation system!!
Response from the owner:Thanks for the great review Byron. We are very pleased that Andrew was able to find the right spa for you and your family and that you love it! Happy Tubbing!
Eric Aasen was a great help fixing our hot tub. Very friendly, respectful and knowledgeable. I will definitely use you again for service calls when needed.
Response from the owner:Thanks so much for the kind words! We're thrilled to hear Eric was able to get your hot tub running smoothly—he’s a valued part of our team. We truly appreciate your support and look forward to helping you again whenever you need us! Happy Tubbing!
A very knowledgeable, helpful and pleasant person. Good job
Response from the owner:Thanks for the 5 Stars, Jay! Sabrina is great. Happy Tubbing!
Took delivery of our Arctic Spas hot tub today and was very happy with the experience from the show room to the delivery. Our salesperson Andrew was extremely personable , knowledgeable and patient while answering all of our questions. We have a steep and difficult backyard to get the hot tub to and it was handled with skill and planning. Paul came by earlier to check it out and make recommendations as to positioning that we hadn’t thought of. Eric, Goran and Tania as well as Paul and Andrew were here to make the delivery a success. Everyone worked well as a team and it all went smoothly. Eric and Paul did the set up. Eric was very meticulous as to where holes were drilled for attachments and did an excellent job of explaining and showing us how to look after our hot tub. Thanks everyone!
Response from the owner:AJ, thanks for taking the time to post this review praising the team and your experience with Arctic Spas. It was quite a challenging delivery and so we are pleased everything went smoothly…Happy Tubbing!
We had a recent off-island, leaking hot tub mystery and Arctic Spas was wonderful to work with to help address our problem! Ryan, in particular, was immensely helpful as we troubleshooted our issue by distance. He was a star by quickly responding to our illustrated emails and providing guidance throughout our detective work in determining the issue. He was able to provide the replacement part we needed and we are so grateful of his time and help. Many thanks, Ryan! We will definitely be back to Arctic Spas for any and all of our hot tub needs!
Response from the owner:Thanks for the positive review . So happy that Ryan was able to help you out remotely and get you the part you needed! Happy Tubbing!
Goran, Paul and Matt who delivered our arctic spa today were fantastic! Professional and super helpful. They worked hard and were super knowledgeable when instructing us on the hot tub's maintanance and operation. Great work, thank you
Response from the owner:Thank you so much for the amazing review! We're thrilled to hear that Goran, Paul, and Matt provided such a positive delivery experience. We’re proud to have such knowledgeable and hardworking team members who truly care about making sure our customers feel confident and supported. Enjoy your new Arctic Spa, and don’t hesitate to reach out if you ever have questions—Happy Tubbing!
Tub tripped the breaker. Reset. Tripped again. Texted John (on the weekend!). John replied in minutes. John guessed the problem. I found the suspected short, removed faulty wiring. Currently en route to a cheap and easy fix. If the hardware store was as good as John, I'd be soaking by now. John and Arctic do it again.
Response from the owner:Thanks so much for the great review Sheldon! Glad you’re back up and running!
Really enjoyed watching the videos made by John Keirstead . They showed lots of different Arctic Spas options, and how the seats vary, and how the jets massage different areas of our body. Very informative and worth watching!
Response from the owner:Thanks for taking the time to leave ypur positive feedback. Much appreciated. It motivates us to produce more helpful content. Happy Tubbing!
I needed to enhance my knowledge about balancing the chemicals in our hot tub, as much of the information I’ve accessed on the internet, and elsewhere, can be conflicting and confusing. Sabrina scheduled some time with me one day, prior to opening the store, in order to provide me with a much-needed mini tutorial on the subject. Her instructions were very clear, concise, and extremely helpful. I was most appreciative of her assistance, as it’s rare to find someone willing to set aside their valuable time in the way that she did. I’m now much more well-informed, and have a higher degree of confidence, about maintaining the chemical balance of the water in our hot tub. Thank-you, Sabrina!
Response from the owner:Wow Cathleen, Sabrina is truly a Smartfriend, and she has a natural tendency to go above and beyond (which we love). So happy that you are now better informed and hope that you can enjoy your hot tub more. Happy Tubbing!
Great service from Goran and Duncan on our hot tub installation!!
Response from the owner:Welcome to the Arctic Spas family! We really appreciate your feedback and we will be sure to pass your compliments on to Goran and Duncan. We are here to help if you need anything at all. Happy Tubbing!
Response from the owner:Thank you so much for the 5-star review! We truly appreciate your support and are so glad you had a great experience with us. Hope to see you again soon!
John was great. After speaking to a few staff members that were not sure how to connect the Bluetooth speakers on my Hudson swim spa, John was able to get it figured out very very quickly!
Response from the owner:Thanks for the positive comments Mike! Glad John was able to get you connected again. Happy Tubbing!
I have been struggling with skin rashes from my Summit Spa Boy with peak ozone so I went on a hunt for some answers. That led me to finding John Keirstead on the Arctic Spa Owners FB page who has been the number one person I trust from this point forward. He has experience with sensitive skin issues caused by spa chemicals and has graciously educated me on how to fix this, even though I’m not his customer and have never bought anything from his store (I live in Alberta). I am forever grateful to be using my spa to its full potential without using the chemicals that were triggering my skin issues. This hot tub set up turns out to be fairly easy and we were overthinking everything. He said that ozone is my friend and now I’m understanding the magic of the spa boy salt spa with ozone 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻
I was nearly thinking of selling my spa until I found him. Thank you John for you expertise and willingness to help an Arctic Spa owner fall back in love with her hot tub 💕
Response from the owner:Thank you so much for taking the time to share your experience! We're thrilled to hear that John was able to help you troubleshoot your Summit Spa Boy system and guide you toward a solution that works for your sensitive skin. It's a great reminder of how powerful and effective the Spa Boy and ozone system can be when properly understood. Your story is exactly why we’re so passionate about educating and supporting spa owners—whether they live nearby or across the country. We're so glad you're now able to enjoy your spa to its full potential again. We'll be sure to pass along your kind words to John. Happy Tubbing!
Eric & Paul set up my Arctic Spa and I could not have been any happier with their service. They were extremely patient with me and answering my dumb questions. Install was quick and easy with their cleaver moving system. Two thumbs up gentlemen and thank you Arctic Spa for hiring professionals and not duds
Response from the owner:Thanks for the positive feedback Christopher. We will let the Paul and Eric know you were pleased with their professionalism and efforts...definitely not "Duds" LOL! Happy Tubbing!
Great delivery and set up
Great communication prior to delivery
Arrived exactly as expected
Paul and Gorman went the extra mile and got it up a set of stairs onto the deck
Clear instructions and explained the app
Painless install -Thank you both.
Response from the owner:Thanks Dave for the positive feedback back. We will let Paul and Goran know that you were happy with their service and that things went smoothly. Happy Tubbing!
Sabrina was super helpful - answered a lot of our questions as new owners of an Arctic Spas and was very knowledgeable about how to best maintain them/which products are needed - thanks Sabrina!
Response from the owner:Thank you Colin. We appreciate the support and positive feedback. So glad that Sabrina was able to help get your questions answered. Happy Tubbing!
Met with Sabrina yesterday after some conversation on the phone. She is very friendly and super knowledgable and helpful. 👍
Response from the owner:Thanks for taking the time to leave your feedback. We agree: Sabrina is truly epitomizes what it means to be “your SmartFriend in the hot tub business.” Happy Tubbing!
We are very happy with our Arctic Spa. Caroline has provided exceptional customer service following our purchase. I recently called for assistance and after calling her extension at the business number she let me know she was in the UK. Even though it was after 8pm UK time, she still logged in to her laptop to check the statistics of our tub and provided advice over the phone. Always happy to provide help, no matter what! Thanks to the team for the help so far.
Response from the owner:Thank you for the post Claire. Caroline regularly goes above and beyond to help our customers, so we are grateful she is one of you team leaders and that she was able to help you out. We will be sure to share your comments with her and the rest of our team. Happy Tubbing!
We just bought a house with an arctic spa spa and no idea how to start using it. A big thanks to Jenny and Caroline for helping us out!
Response from the owner:Thank you for sharing your experience! We’re so glad Jenny and Caroline were able to help you get started with your Arctic Spa. Enjoy your new home and your hot tub — welcome to the Arctic Spas family!
Our salesperson Marc was very helpful and informative, we appreciated his feedback and we bought the perfect tub for our needs. The delivery guys were great, Matthew the installer was quick, efficient and very knowledgeable. We were able to enjoy our new spa the same evening! We would definitely call Matt anytime we need some assistance, he is professional, friendly and explains things well.
Response from the owner:Thank you for the great review, Shirley! We’re so glad Marc, Matthew, and our delivery team helped make your experience smooth and enjoyable. Welcome to the Arctic Spas family. Let us know if you need anything at all. Happy tubbing!
Sabrina is the best, always very helpful!
Response from the owner:Thanks for taking the time to post Michael! We will let Sabrina know you were please with her service. Happy Tubbing!
Eric did a great job setting up our Kodiak spa today. All went well and will be trying it out tonight!
Response from the owner:Congratulations Joe Sue Kirby Family, You’re going to love the Kodiak! Let us know how the first soak goes or post a photo. We will let Eric know you were pleased with his efforts today. Happy Tubbing!
This salt water spa system is so much nicer than the chemical alternative and the app makes control and maintence a breeze! highly reccomend if ur looking for a hot tub!
Response from the owner:Thanks for the positive feedback Mike! Glad you are loving the Spaboy system! Happy Tubbing!
We bought out Arctic Spa used in 2009…it is still working like a charm! Awesome hot tub!
Response from the owner:Thank you so much for your kind words! We're thrilled to hear that your Arctic Spa from 2009 is still bringing you so much enjoyment. It's always great to know our spas stand the test of time. Happy Tubbing!

Response from the owner:Thanks for sharing your experience with us, we appreciate the positive review. We will let the fellas know you were happy with their work! Happy Tubbing!
I recently purchased an Arctic Spa tub, installed on Nov. 12. While the sales experience was average, the exceptional follow-up service far exceeded my expectations. Tania and Goran provided outstanding support, with Goran demonstrating remarkable expertise and dedication. He quickly identified and resolved a manufacturing defect in the waterline. His ability to break down complex problems and communicate effectively made me feel valued and confident as a customer.

Another issue involved unreliable internet connectivity for the SpaBoy App. Once again, Tania and Goran went above and beyond, recommending and installing the Ethernet over Power solution, which has worked flawlessly since installation. Tania’s support throughout the process was equally exceptional, ensuring all my concerns were addressed.

I highly recommend their service—thank you, Tania and Goran, for making this a seamless and stress-free experience!
Response from the owner:Thanks for taking the time to leave a positive review Ben. We always strive to be your Smartfriend whether in a sales or service capacity, so super happy that Goran and Tania were able to get your tub running and communicating properly. As you have experienced, this is not always straightforward, so very happy to have these experts on our team to sort things out when things don't quite function as they ought to out of the box. Happy Tubbing!
Goran arrived on time and worked cheerfully and efficiently. Turns out our pump was broken and he had one in his van so was able to replace it and get it operational same day. Very nice man…thanks Goran, and thanks Aquafun!
Response from the owner:Thank you Sue. We appreciate you taking the time to post your feedback online. We will be sure to share your comments with our team. Glad we were able to get you a new pump installed so you can enjoy your tub again. Happy Tubbing!
Stopped in to see about buying a hot tub at the Parkville store. Sabrina was super helpful and awesome. Very knowledgable and sold me on a hot tub… Almost. just have to go away and do a little bit more research. Love Arctic spas!
Response from the owner:Thanks for the positive feedback Christine! You are in great hands with Sabrina as your SmartFriend! Hope you’ll be tubbing soon!
Our service tech Eric was so helpful and courteous. Sabrina was very helpful in the sale and after service. Thankyou Arctic Spas!
Response from the owner:Thanks for taking the time to leave us some positive feedback. We will be sharing your review with our team. Happy Tubbing!
We received fast, efficient and professional service from Eric today. In addition to installing a new heater he checked to make sure all systems worked properly. This is our second arctic spa …..excellent product.
Response from the owner:Thanks for the positive review Sally. We will let Eric know you were pleased with his service. Happy Tubbing!
Sabrina was so helpful as we ordered our new hot tub cover. Great service, quick to respond and provide everything we needed.

Once again, Sabrina was extremely helpful getting us set up with a new replacement hot tub. She sent a bunch of great options and was able to get us set up within one week.
Response from the owner:Thanks for taking the time to leave a review Rochelle! So glad that Sabrina was able to help you out!
Marc and the team have been great over the last year and I’ve gotten solid advice getting on-boarded after purchasing a home which had a spa.
Response from the owner:Thanks for taking the time to leave a review. It can be pretty challenging when you buy a place with a tub, so it was good to have your Smartfriend, Marc to help you with the onboarding. Happy Tubbing!
Megan Weiss of Arctic Spas is superb in her attention to detail and caring assistance. Highly recommend!
Response from the owner:Thank you for taking the time to leave us a review, Sue! We're thrilled to hear that you had such a positive experience with Megan. Her attention to detail and caring assistance truly make her an asset to the Arctic Spas team. We appreciate your recommendation and hope to serve you again in the future!
I had an issue with the YESS system on my 2022 Kodiak and I reached out to John, the owner, for advice. John could not have been nicer. He quickly responded to me, providing videos and taking me through the procedure to set the valves correctly inside the shell.

It turns out that the valves had been misaligned for the entire 2.5 years I’ve owned the tub and the YESS system was not operating anywhere near full efficiency.

He helped me avoid a service call. He saved me money. Here’s the thing. I reached out to him blindly. I live in the US and didn’t buy my tub from him. He didn’t have to do any of this. This is how I know he’s a good person.

This is the dealer you want to buy from. One who is truly in it to ensure his customers are happy with what they’ve purchased and that they’re getting everything out of what they’ve purchased.

John is good people. He takes care of his customers. He’s obviously there when you need him.

If you’re in B.C. and looking for a hot tub, this is the guy you need to buy from. You’ll be getting a great tub, first off, but for as long as you own it you’ll have stand-up support. Thats getting harder and harder to find these days.
Response from the owner:Wow! (Blush) Thanks for the amazing review Jim. Glad we were able to help you out! Happy Tubbing!
Arctic spa support has been outstanding since we bought our saltwater hot tub three years ago. Thank you for being there and continuing to support us step-by-step on the occasion that we need some advice! I would totally recommend Arctic spa to anyone looking for a new hot tub.
Response from the owner:Thank you for the 5 stars and recommendation! We’re so glad you’ve been enjoying your saltwater hot tub these past three years, and we’re always here whenever you need us. Happy tubbing!
We had an excellence experience buying a hot tub through Sabrina at Arctic Spas in January. The whole process was smooth, professional and painless!
Response from the owner:That is awesome to hear Tom! Thanks for taking the time to leave a review and praise Sabrina's efforts. She's amazing! Happy Tubbing!
Paul and Eric did an awesome job installing our hot tub and were very helpful in instructing us on its operation. Thank you!
Response from the owner:Thanks Rob for letting our team know you were happy with their efforts. Happy Tubbing!

4 Hot tub showrooms on Vancouver Island:

We have four showrooms spread across Vancouver Island to serve you best.  This includes spas that you can actually “Wet Test!”  This means you can bring your swim trunks and try it out!

While we can demonstrate some things on our website with pictures and video, it is sometimes hard to express the clean smell of a saltwater spa…or feel the satin smooth texture of our latest acrylic called Polar White…or experience the soothing waters of a saltwater system.  How about experiencing swimming into the powerful jets of a swim spa…or simply, getting a FREE deep massage from an Arctic Spas SDS seat?

These can only be experienced in person!

We have four locations evenly spread from Victoria on the South island to Campbell River up North so that you can experience one near you!

What we have available at each location varies.  Please contact us first to arrange a time and allow us to check the status of what we have available to test at either location!

Tap the Phone number below, or on John’s image holding the cell phone to go to our Contacts Page and fill out a short form.  There, you can select your desired location.  We can sometimes meet after hours with a pre-arranged appointment!  Just ask!
