How to Create a Spa Experience at Home: An Expert Guide

at-home spa products

We're always looking for ways to enhance our self-care routine, especially when it doesn’t cost a fortune and can be done in the comfort of our own home. The good news? You don’t need a five-star hotel to enjoy a spa-like experience. With a few thoughtful touches, you can turn your space into a calming sanctuary.

Victoria Jackson, interiors guru and manifestation expert, shares her top tips for bringing a sense of luxury and relaxation into your home.


The essentials for a luxurious home spa

To recreate the ultimate spa atmosphere, you’ll need a few must-have essentials:

  • A beautifully scented candle – Opt for calming candle scents such as lavender, eucalyptus or sandalwood to set the mood.

  • A journal – Perfect for unwinding with some reflection, gratitude writing or manifestation.

  • Your favourite bath salts – Epsom salts or Himalayan bath soaks can help relax tired muscles and detoxify the body.

We all know that bath bomb sitting pretty in your bathroom cabinet - the one you're saving for the perfect moment. But why wait? Transform an ordinary Sunday evening into something special. A soothing soak can be just what you need to reset and prepare for the week ahead.


Declutter & organise: storage tips for a spa-like bathroom

One of the reasons luxury spas feel so serene is their clutter-free environment. In contrast, our bathrooms are often filled with everyday essentials that take away from the calming atmosphere.

Here’s how to bring some order to your space:

  • Invest in hidden storage – An under-sink cabinet or stylish jars and bottles are ideal for tucking away cleaning products and extra toiletries.

  • Use baskets and shelves – Store skincare and beauty products in stylish woven baskets to keep surfaces clear.

  • DIY shelving – If you're handy, consider adding built-in shelves under your bath or in unused wall space.


Spa-worthy décor ideas for a relaxing ambiance

A home spa should be as stylish as it is calming. Adding thoughtful décor can make all the difference:

  • Artwork & wall décor – Framed prints, macrame hangings or even serene photography can bring personality to your bathroom.

  • Statement tiles – Consider elegant, neutral-toned tiles or a feature wall for a spa-inspired aesthetic.

  • Plants for tranquility – Adding greenery such as eucalyptus or aloe vera can improve air quality and add a fresh, calming touch.


Final touches: styling & scent for the perfect at-home spa

Little styling details can elevate your space and make it feel more intentional:

  • Arrange pretty vignettes – Display your most beautiful bath products, perfume bottles and self-care must-haves on a decorative tray.

  • Incorporate soft textures – Fluffy towels, a plush robe and a cosy bath mat can make all the difference.

  • Create a signature scent – Diffuse essential oils such as lavender or bergamot to instantly transport you into a state of relaxation.


Ready to create your own home spa?

Transforming your bathroom into a spa-like retreat doesn't have to be complicated. Start small - perhaps with a beautiful candle or some luxurious bath salts. Focus on decluttering, incorporating calming scents, and adding touches that bring you joy. Remember, it's about creating a space where you can truly unwind and recharge.
