FWIW running individual conductor inside conduit inside your house (between your spa panel and your main panel) will be a lot cheaper than running romex. If you're into saving some money it's worth considering this.

If you're into saving some money it's worth considering this.6/3 romex will be about $1.75 to $2.00 per foot. So figure a 50 run will be 100 bucks in wire. And depending on where its run it could be an hour or two of labor to staple it up. A 500 reel of #6 stranded THHN is $226 or $.45 per foot X 4 wires = $1.80 per foot. Conduit will be about $.25 per foot and elbows and pull elbows are not cheap. Then you have the labor of putting it all together and securing it and cutting 4 wires to equal length and then blowing strings thru the conduit and pulling a rope thru to pull the wire bundle thru again labor will be at least 4 times as much IMO. There is nothing wrong with conduit and you will have to use it outside it is a very good method inside but it will never be lower cost indoors IMO.

I did the comparison at Lowe's when I bought my supplies and the 4 conductor in conduit was about half the price for me, all-in. I was comparing to four conductor romex. I don't think I was getting it for $2.00 per foot though. As you said - it all becomes equal once you leave the house.
