He was essential to closing the deal on my Serra Mesa single family home in a highly competitive market. Martin exceeded my expectations in every way. I definitely recommend Martin to any buyer or seller in San Diego. Thanks Martin, you're the best!” -Aaron
“My family and I were completely satisfied to find Martin Barros to sell our house. Being in the military, I have bought and sold 7 houses, but Martin would “hands down” win the award for providing the BEST CUSTOMER SERVICE amongst all the REALTORS® that I have worked with. He was RESPECTFUL and truly RESPONSIVE to all our questions/concerns and addressed each one with equal importance. He had the house cleaned, staged furniture, painted two rooms, provided lawn care maintenance, performed minor interior maintenance, and marketed a professionally crafted video. He held an open house the first weekend after posting to the MLS ,and the house was sold in 3 days! Martin is the ULTIMATE PROFESSIONAL and has a battle-tested approach on how to sale your house FAST AND FOR THE MAXIMUM VALUE! If you are looking for a realtor, don’t waste your time with other REALTORS® that provide lip service, CALL MARTIN BARROS! YOU’LL BE GLAD YOU DID!” -Jeff

Freestanding soaking tubs were recently identified by Luxury Property Specialists as one of the top luxury bath trends.
“Freestanding bathtubs epitomize elegance and relaxation, boasting designs and materials that range from sleek to rustic,” the Best of the Best guide declared. “These statement fixtures often serve as an artistic focal point for the room, not to mention offering an indulgent soaking experience.”
There’s just one small glitch. As synonymous with luxurious spaces as they are, freestanding tubs are not known for having wellness features integrated into them. Drop-in tubs, as well as shower spaces, have typically been the instruments for the “athome spa” experience, delivering everything from hydrotherapy and steam to aromatherapy and chromatherapy. That reality is beginning to shift.
One American manufacturer, Hydro Systems, has been spearheading the integration of wellness systems into freestanding tubs. “Hydro Systems is currently the only manufacturer to add hydro therapies to freestanding bathtubs,” says Ashley Steinhardt, a Hydro Systems representative in sales and marketing. “We’ve always been a company that strives to accommodate our customers’ needs through customizations, so this was a natural progression.”
In 2023, they introduced the innovative Cold Plunge system to their freestanding tub line, which reduces the water temperature to 37°F. Cold water therapy for less than five minutes a day has been known to improve sleep, reduce inflammation, boost immunity and regulate hormones. “Cold Plunge is our newest innovation,” she says. “We’ve been selling a lot of these.”

Hydro Systems has already seen a surge in interest in freestanding tubs with integrated hydro therapies. As more homeowners look to transform their baths into personal spa sanctuaries, this niche is expected to grow. Steinhardt reveals that the company is continuing to explore new therapy options for the freestanding market. She predicts that more freestanding tubs will offer personalized wellness features in the future: “People are out in the world all day, and they want to come home to a safe space. They want to disconnect and have the ultimate in self-care, right at their fingertips whenever they need it. Now, they can have the beauty of a freestanding tub and the ultimate spa experience at home.”

THE AZORESArgentina
There is an archipelago in the middle of the Atlantic Ocean known as The Azores, and it’s a paradise that belongs to Portugal. Imagine waking up to emerald-green lakes, exploring geothermal hot springs, and savoring fresh seafood—all while contributing to a thriving community. The region is “experiencing full growth. In recent years, we’ve witnessed an increase in investment from increasingly demanding and informed customers,” shares José Wallis de Carvalho, broker, and head of Coldwell Banker Houselife. He continues, “Due to the unique nature of our region, it shows great potential to continue growing.” What sets the Azores apart? It’s the unique blend of unspoiled landscapes, volcanic wonders, and a vibrant local culture that fuels this growth. As the first archipelago in the world to be certified as a sustainable tourist destination, the Azores beckon travelers not only to visit but also to put down roots.
“The Azores are in fashion: to visit, to live, but also to invest,” Frederico Abecassis, CEO of Coldwell Banker Portugal, shares. He continues, “They are, moreover, the first archipelago in the world certified as a sustainable tourist destination, and continue to
attract attention, due to their natural beauty, but also due to their strategic location. The real estate market is booming and has the potential to grow even further.” The real estate market is buzzing, and opportunities abound. Imagine owning a charming cottage overlooking the ocean or a modern villa nestled amidst lush greenery. But it’s not just about property—it’s about embracing a lifestyle. Whether you’re drawn to the vibrant arts scene, the rich culinary heritage, or the thrill of outdoor adventures, the Azores promise an authentic and fulfilling way of life. Read on to learn more about life in the Azores from our friends at Coldwell Banker Houselife.
