New condo construction project almost ready to go...  4th floor "spa" balcony to be 10' x 12'...
Comfortable with both the local Caldera dealer and Sundance dealer...
With balcony size limitations thinking Sundance Marin or Caldera Martinique...
I'm 6'3" she is 5'3"...  Can I fit in the lounger, will she drown?
Other thoughts re:size on balcony or anything...
haven't wet tested yet.  I'll be able to try the brands but but unlikely these actual models will be available...

Welcome to the forum.  This is a classic predicament. My sister at 4'11" had this problem and she ends up needing a booster seat to sit in some spots of her tub. (HS Vanguard) .

Those are VERY similar spas from two good spa makers. Wet testing and dealer confidence are usually what we'd point to as help so I'm not sure what to say other than maybe see which simply gives you the better price and options.

Both are very good spa brands like Satech pointed out. You said going to wettest, i think you should have them setup the spas you want to test. For instance in the Sundance they put you in a Cameo you will probably fit, but the lounger size is different in the Marin. Likewise on the Hot Springs....

My husband is 6'2" and I'm 5'4" so that is close to what you are dealing with.  He didn't fit in the lounger of the Sundance Marin, it was too short but he fit perfectly in the Cameo lounger.  One of the seats is deep and the water is usually up to my chin but the other one is shallow and the water only comes to the top of my shoulders.  If you don't want to wet test, you can pretty much tell just by sitting in them dry how you will fit.  Hope that helps.

Vlady,
 your right that is why i posted, i think with there size constraints they want i think they may need to move up to a bigger spa like the Sundance Cameo, D1 Californian, Hot Springs Vista... joppa how is the search going?
