Spa-Inspired Bathroom Ideas for Relaxation

You spend so much time in your bathroom, it should be an oasis of tranquility from your busy modern life. Make every day feel like a spa day by designing your bathroom as a luxe retreat with restful, functional, and elegant touches. No matter what your budget or design style is, here are a few simple ways to make your bathroom a soothing environment in which you can truly relax and wash away the cares of the day.

Tips For Designing Your Bathroom Like A Relaxing Spa

You can’t go to the spa every day, but you can design your bathroom in such a way to optimize tranquility. Here are some spa-inspired bathroom ideas to make the most of your bathroom when you just want to relax.

Keep Things Organized With Open Shelving

Spas often utilize open shelving so that clients can easily access amenities like hand towels and extra toilet paper while viewing their products. Do the same in your bathroom with open shelving to store essentials like washcloths and everyday skincare items. Plus, open shelving is a great way to save space without the clutter of cabinets.

Hang Fresh Eucalyptus

Fresh eucalyptus is inexpensive and opulent at the same time. Enjoy a spa’s soothing smells while you jump in for a quick rinse after the gym by hanging some fresh eucalyptus in the shower.

All White

An all-white color scheme takes away distractions and evokes a calm frame of mind, making it a fantastic option for your spa-inspired bathroom. Of course, you can always add some metallic and wooden accents for some extra dimension.

Plenty of Mirrors

Adding multiple mirrors to your bathroom makes it feel airy and more expansive as well as more glamorous. Plus, having extra mirror on hand is always useful when getting ready. 

Liven Up With Faux and Real Plants

Potted plants, whether real or faux, liven up a space and help to ground it with the natural world. A few small succulents or vines on your window ledges (or even bathtub if it’s big enough) and vanity can go a long way. If you have an empty corner, think about filling it up with a faux tree in a beautiful decorative basket so that you can feel like you’re relaxing in nature while taking a bath.

Marble Accents

If you have the budget for it, build in some marble accents. This is the ultimate bit of luxury that adds interest (plus resale value!) to your home. Elevate the overall appearance of your bathroom by incorporating some marble accents in your floors, vanity, or backsplash.

Towel Ladder

A wooden towel ladder is an inexpensive and easy way to up your bathroom aesthetic and make it more spa-like. A light wooden ladder brings organic texture into the space while serving the function of displaying your bath towels in an elegant manner.

Luxurious Curtains

Curtains feel more luxurious than plain window blinds and elegant drapery will elevate your bathroom while helping to limit excessive sunlight during the day.

Earth Tone Decorating

Earthy colors add to the spa-like effect of a room and make it feel more tranquil. Consider wood cabinetry or walls, or even a single wood wall behind your bathtub, for a sleek and contemporary look.
