Albert Heijn has long been more than just the place for your sprinkles and hummus, because you can now also simply score a complete barrel sauna there. Yep, a real sauna. For your garden. With all the trimmings. The Spitsbergen barrel sauna brings the feeling of a luxurious Scandinavian spa straight to your backyard. And all that for a price you normally only see with bargain deals.

The sauna as a bonus deal

For anyone who could use a little extra relaxation after yet another Teams meeting, wants to blow off some steam or simply wants to avoid the winter blues: the Spitsbergen barrel sauna is the answer. Made of solid spruce wood, which not only retains heat like crazy but also spreads a wonderful pine aroma. Add the rounded shape – ideal for an even distribution of heat – and you have a genuine sauna experience in your own garden.

And now for the best part: you get it at a discount.

  • For 2 people: from €2099 for €1749
  • For 2 to 6 people: from €2395 for €1999

Everything you get with your supermarket spa

Albert Heijn is pulling out all the stops with a complete package, so you won’t have to hurriedly order a thermometer or serving spoon separately. Think:

  • Heater (3.6 kW or 6 kW)
  • Sauna stones
  • Thermometer
  • Hourglass
  • Bucket & ladle
  • LED lighting
  • Glass door for daylight & drama
  • Free home delivery within 10 working days*

* Delivery in the Netherlands. Abroad? Then you really will have to book a wellness weekend.

Sustainable wood, smart construction

The saunas are made from high-quality spruce or fir wood, robust enough to withstand Dutch weather. The barrel design is not only a nod to Scandinavian style, but also ensures quick heating and efficient energy use. In no time, you’ll reach temperatures of up to 90 °C and all your worries will melt away like snow in the sun – or in this case: like you on a sauna bench.

Assembly without the swearing

The barrel sauna is delivered in pre-assembled panels, meaning you can put it up without too much cursing or renovation stress. Spend an afternoon doing some DIY (or sweet-talk a handy friend), and you’ll be ready to sweat.

Ordering? Easy as that

The saunas can simply be ordered via the Albert Heijn website. The 2-person version is available immediately and will be delivered to your home within 10 working days. The larger 2–6-person version will be available from November 27, 2025.

WHILE SUPPLIES LAST (you’ve been warned)

Just as with the bonus deals, the rule here is also: while supplies last. So if you think, “Oh, I’ll take a look next week,” you might end up with nothing but a box of sauna stones and a dream. Want to let yourself cook in style later? Then now is the time.

So: put on your bathrobe, turn on that playlist of Zen flute music, and start sweating with excitement.
