Hot tubs are a terrible detriment to any enclosure due to the moisture expelled. I'm not sure what good a pergola would be for a hot tub, but it would almost certainly "pay" in deterioration acceleration. Close to the house isn't great either; an installer whom I considered to be an expert gave me all these warnings for consideration in placement. If you want an awning on one, go with a heavy PVC frame and sunbrella fabric for the least loss from moisture damage.

My main goal would be privacy around the hot tub, not necessarily on top. My yard is large and wide open and I’m sure my neighbors don’t want to see me in my bday suit
