Pool over spa any day!

I vote spa. it's the best thing about our house. used all year round. There is nothing quite like sitting in a hot steaming spa on a freezing winter's night. easy to maintain. it would be my must have for any other house I had to live in.

Would have to say spa because as said above nothing beats a hot spa in the middle of winter! Also i prefer swimming in lakes, the sea and rivers rather than in a pool anyway!

My family much prefer a pool as we all enjoy swimming. We had a spa for years and enjoyed that but our use of it waned over time, so we dismantled it. Our forever home has a lap pool that my husband and I use often, and our grandchildren enjoy it during their summertime visits. My fondest childhood memories are of summers spent at my grandparents' home, and regular swims in the lake with my grandmother and great-aunt. I think this is why I feel such a connection to water, and have the need to always have a pool.

Love the size of pools for exercise

Visually, a pool looks much more appealing.

Pools being bigger is better for all the family to enjoy.

Because we have a young growing family and they want the space to swim in.

Pools are a great way create your outdoor oasis

spas are most enjoyable with a friend

Neither, couldn't be bothered with upkeep and wouldn't use either enough to warrant them.

Pools are always great for a family and friends.

Such a common addition to living in Australia

Pools are great for the whole family!

I voted for neither.

Growing up my family always had a pool. Although I am sure it's much easier to maintain the pool during the winter months nowadays, I will forever my father's grumbling about how tedious it was to maintain a pool throughout the year.

Of course, I've always lived in Melbourne. Unless your pool is heated, a pool is something that doesn't get used for much of the year.

I guess a spa is different, indoors, it could work. But then I'm more inclined to pamper myself in other ways - A good massage will always win over a spa any day in my book.
