Refugio Sauna Co. was born from the travels of a couple from Upstate New York who fell in love with authentic sauna culture while exploring Scandinavia, Northern Italy, Austria, Switzerland, France, and beyond. Along the way, saunas became a cherished part of our journeys — a place to recharge, relax, and renew.

That inspiration led to the creation of Refugio Sauna Co. The name Refugio means refuge or sanctuary, and it reflects the experience we strive to bring to every customer: a personal retreat where you can disconnect, restore, and enjoy the powerful health benefits of sauna right at home.

Today, our mission is clear — to provide premium, beautifully designed sauna kits at a budget-friendly price, with a customer-first approach at the heart of everything we do. Refugio isn’t just about saunas; it’s about creating a sanctuary, inspired by the journeys that sparked our dream and shared now with many others.

Our Values

At Refugio Sauna Co., everything we do is guided by the same principles that inspired us on our travels:

Wellness First – We believe in the physical and mental health benefits of sauna culture and are dedicated to helping our customers create spaces that support balance, relaxation, and renewal.

Craftsmanship & Quality – Every sauna kit we offer is built from premium materials with attention to detail, designed to last and to deliver the same authentic experience we fell in love with abroad.

Accessibility & Care – Our mission is to make the joy of sauna ownership attainable. That means offering budget-friendly options, transparent pricing, and always putting our customers first.
