When it comes to cosy getaways, some amenities are simply a cut above the rest. If you’re looking to catch some R&R this winter—or at any time of year—a steamy hot tub or luxurious spa situation to soak away the stress of city life should be top of your list.
Pack a good winter read, your favourite bottle of red, and some bubble bath—here are some of the best NSW Airbnbs with hot tubs, jacuzzis, and spacious bathtubs.

If a rustic country escape in the beautiful Southern Highlands sounds like a dream, take a look at Wildernest. Described as a slow stay experience, it's off-grid, sustainable, and features a stringy bark hut and two tiny homes as accommodation options.
There are two tiny homes available and both feature wood-fired outdoor baths (the eco-friendly version of a jacuzzi, if you will). Surrounded by the Wingello Forest and its many ancient gums, we can't think of a more beautiful spot to bathe.
