Barefoot. We have a hot tub up north. Have had 3 tubs over the last 20 years. Just got a new tub 2 years ago, a nordic spa, it ran around $3,000. The cost of running them is about $15-20 a month in the cold weather. Here in the summer months you could just put it on circulate for the months you are gone and it would probably run $5-10 per month as you would need no heat. We set ours up north at 60F for the months we are gone and it costs next to nothing in the winter. You should be able to get a nice 4-5 person tub for less than tearing out your tub and installing a new one. If you need more info let me know.
