With Valentine’s Day approaching, this post is dedicated to adding a little romance to your décor by including a bathtub in your bedroom. This popular design trend is common in honeymoon suites, romantic vacation destinations, and even homes. With this tub trend, the next time you want to lounge in a warm bath, you can do it in the comfort of your bedroom – a communal space for you and your sweetheart. Here are ten stunning bedrooms with baths ranging from modern to traditional designs.  These are sure to get you in the mood for Valentines Day.

A Tub with a View

Nothing says luxury and romance like a bath with a scenic view – it’s like a hot tub from the comfort of your bedroom! If you live in the mountains or the gorgeous countryside and privacy is not a concern, put your bath by the window! Nothing will be more relaxing than soaking in paradise. You can even style your tub with a wooden plank across the top to hold your wine glass, magazine, or book. If your tub is not suited for that, put a teak stool or an end table by the tub for your towel and goodies. [from Edwin Pepper Interiors via Houzz]

A Tub Suited for the City

Even without the view, you and your sweetheart will enjoy the tub all the same. If not by the window, your bath can create a cozy and romantic corner. In this home, the natural floor-to-ceiling stone tiles add to the rustic modern feel of the space. The pink flowers in the corner are a romantic staging element perfect for Valentine’s Day.

The relaxing feel of your bedroom can only be improved by the addition of a gorgeous bath. It will make your space feel like a bathhouse or a spa. So perhaps for this Valentine’s Day, you and your loved one should give each other the gift of a bathtub in your bedroom.  It is the gift that keeps on giving — it will make for a perfect getaway for you and your valentine all year long.
