One of the most common questions new RVers have when they’re shopping for a motorhome is about the bathroom. It’s small—will it be too small? How hard will it be to adjust to the no-frills space?
RV bathrooms are tiny, but that doesn’t mean you can’t enjoy your washroom. With a little investment, you can turn your RV bathroom into a spa away from home!
Here are some easy and inexpensive DIY improvements you can do over a weekend to make your RV bathroom a space you’ll love to be in.
Shower
Showerhead
Perhaps the biggest single improvement you can make is the showerhead. A luxurious shower sets the tone for the whole day, doesn’t it? RV veterans rave about two fantastic showerhead models that stand out from the others: the Oxygenics BodySpa showerhead and the Ecocamel Jetstorm showerhead. Trust us—you’ll love them.
Expanding shower curtain rod
A tiny bathroom means you’ve got a tiny shower, too. But with an expanding shower curtain rod, you can give yourself more elbow room for easy turning and scrubbing those hard-to-reach spots. And you won’t debate whether to skip shaving your legs!
Mildew-free fabric shower curtain
Small, humid spaces can be susceptible to mildew. But you can enhance the beauty and cleanliness of your RV bathroom by hanging a mildew-free fabric shower curtain.
Walls
Backsplash tiles
A spa should feel luxurious. If your motorhome’s bathroom walls don’t give you that feeling, you can easily add a touch of richness with Smart Tile peel & stick backsplash tiles. The sheets look like glass tiles, but they’re incredibly easy to install—with no mess or fuss!
Wall applique
Want to get more decorative? Use nature-themed wall appliques to bring a sense of serenity to your RV’s new spa!
Fan
The spa experience goes beyond what you see and feel—it’s also what you hear. With just a little work, you can upgrade your RV fan with a powerful and quiet Vortex exhaust vent fan. You’ll be surprised what a difference it makes!
Accents
The right linens and accessories
Now that your walls and shower are beautiful and inviting, introduce some accent pieces to add some pop to your bathroom spa. Find towels and bathroom fixtures that complement your color theme and the style of the room. Bring in thick, soft towels that you’ll love to use—it’ll be the perfect way to finish your invigorating shower.
Spacesavers
Since RV bathrooms are tiny, it’s easy to become cluttered once you start using the bathroom. Invest into clever spacesavers to keep those toothbrushes and shampoo bottles out of the way.
