Spa Bath Robes

How to Choose

Spa bath robes are some of the most decadent, me-only pieces of clothing you’ll ever get a chance to purchase. That’s why you’ll want to get this one right! Here’s what to look for:

• The right fabric: First and foremost, you should look for the right fabric. This means searching for one that is soft against your skin, but durable enough to stand the test of time.

Whether you slip into your spa bath robe after a long day at work, a long day with the kids, or both, you want to feel completely enveloped in the softest possible fabric. If all you feel when you slip into your robe is the scratchy feel of polyester, then you know that you’ll need to choose more carefully next time! Some key fabrics you’ll want to keep an eye out for are:

• Terry
• Velour
• Chamois Microfiber

Any one of these fabrics, or a blend of all three, will give that deliciously soft feel!

• Think about size: Some spa bath robes come with the one-size-fits-all category, but think before you go this route. Since you are spending a pretty large sum of money, sometimes as much as $85 or more, you really should get something that fits great. While it’s true that you’ll want to purchase a spa robe that is roomy and comfortable, you also don’t want to get something that unattractively hangs off of you and dwarfs your shape.

• Color: With its power to inspire, relax or calm, color is a powerful tool. Something that is this emotionally provoking should be taken seriously. Chances are you’ll be wearing this spa robe for a while, so choose a color you truly love; one that you won’t mind donning several times a week.

Where to Shop for Spa Bath Robes

Here are some spots to seek out when you're ready to shop:

Plush Necessities

Plush Necessities has everything you could possibly want to achieve that warm, sumptuous feeling. What makes their bath robes so special is that they are designed to be two robes rolled into one.

Their dual-layered luxury spa robe is made of a super-soft brushed microfiber that is then lined in a plush white, looped terry fabric. The outer shell of the robe is done in a microfiber that is smooth and lightweight to the touch, while the terry blended lining is soft, and perhaps most importantly, super absorbent. Available in white, natural, sand stone, aqua, pink, and se shell, these robes are quite pricey at $95.00.

Cotton Palace

The Cotton Palace has every type of spa robe you could possibly want. Whether you’re looking for a kimono-style robe for your husband, or a luxuriously soft hooded spa robe for yourself, they’ve got you covered! One of the best features on the Cotton Palace site is the ability to shop by price (under $50, under $75, and under $100).

In the under $50 range, you can purchase a basic waffle robe, a loop terry, a velour kimono robe, men’s wraps, ladies' wraps, and terry cover-ups for the kids! It’s amazing because with prices like these, you can outfit the entire family in comfort!

If, one the other hand, you feel like splurging, you’ll be greeted with some awesome options, particularly in the under $100 category. This is where you’ll find the cashmere/chenille microfiber blend; it’s as decadent looking as it sounds!

Thirsty Towels

Lastly, we’ve come to Thirsty Towels. Here you can choose from a huge selection of spa robes including:

• Terry
• Velour
• Bamboo
• Microterry
• Microfiber
• Waffle

All of these robes come in a wide selection of colors, so you should be able to find one that suits your personality perfectly! The only potential downside of Thirsty Towels are their prices. These robes can cost as much as $95.00 for their terry robes, to as much as $150.00 for their microfiber blends.
