Luxurious NYC Residences with Private Decks and Hot Tubs

When done right, a soak in a hot tub can be highly restorative for mind and body alike. But as tempting as it may be to sink into a hot tub, it is not without risks. Even at the most high-end spas, hotels, and residential buildings, sharing a hot tub can mean sharing bacteria, including the dreaded "hot tub rash."

However, this is no reason to stick to showers. As long as the cleaning staff is diligent, the risk of contracting something from a hot tub is significantly reduced. For those willing to go one step further, a private Jacuzzi or hot tub can keep many of these fears at bay, and for some lucky residents, look out on spectacular city views. Behold 15 luxury apartments throughout Manhattan and Brooklyn where relaxation is only a room or private terrace away.
