"Tickle Tub Hot Tubs South Africa " Listing

Welcome to Tickle Tub

Tickle Tub is a proudly South African brand specialising in premium, eco-friendly, fire-driven hot tubs designed for outdoor and off-grid relaxation. Established in Cape Town, Tickle Tub was created to offer a luxurious alternative to traditional electric hot tubs, allowing you to enjoy a warm, relaxing soak without relying on electricity.

Whether you're at home, on a farm, in the mountains, at a holiday destination, or enjoying the outdoors, a Tickle Tub brings comfort and relaxation wherever you choose to place it.

Built for South African Living

Our hot tubs are designed with the South African lifestyle in mind. The wood-fired heating system uses stainless steel coils to naturally heat the water, eliminating the need for electricity and making Tickle Tub an ideal choice for off-grid living and load-shedding conditions.

For added convenience, selected models can also be customised with gas heating, giving you greater flexibility over how you heat your tub.

Quality Fibreglass Construction

Every Tickle Tub is manufactured with double-walled fibreglass construction, providing excellent insulation, durability, and resistance to wood rot. Unlike traditional wooden hot tubs, our fibreglass design is made to withstand outdoor conditions while remaining easy to maintain.

With spacious seating for up to four adults and thoughtful features such as a built-in beverage ledge and easy-drain system, Tickle Tub combines practical design with luxurious outdoor comfort.

Our Range

Tickle Tub offers a variety of fire-driven hot tub designs, including the Original Shorty, Original Standard, Granite, Woody Classic, Glamp Barrel, Twinkle LED-lit tub, and Rocky Hot Tub.

Heating options and additional accessories are available to further customise your experience.

Proudly South African Craftsmanship

Our tubs are handcrafted at our Cape Town factory by a dedicated team with extensive experience in fibreglass manufacturing, production, design, finishing, logistics, and quality control.

We take pride in combining local craftsmanship, innovative design, and high-quality materials to create products that are built for lasting enjoyment.

Innovation Meets Sustainability

Tickle Tub was born from a simple idea: luxury relaxation should not have to depend on high energy consumption. Our fire-driven technology provides an efficient way to heat your tub while reducing reliance on electricity.

This makes Tickle Tub particularly suited to eco-conscious homeowners, outdoor enthusiasts, holiday accommodation establishments, farms, and off-grid properties.
