6 Best Stone Bath Mats to Complete Your Spa Shower
It’s time to swap that damp bath mat for something sleek.
Nothing ruins the refreshing feeling of a shower like stepping onto a bath mat that's still wet from the last person who took one. Stone bath mats can help you avoid that moist feeling and bring your bathroom closer to spa quality with just one piece.
If you've got a whole family sharing bathrooms, the bathroom rug can easily get very wet during bath time. When the shower becomes a high-traffic area of your home, you want a bath mat made from a material that doesn't get gross quickly. I used to use a bath mat that claimed to be moisture-wicking but didn't live up to the hype, so the switch to a solid, sturdy bath stone is a welcome change in my bathroom.
Stone bath mats are made from a porous material called diatomaceous earth—that's the "stone" in "stone bath mat." It's compact, durable, and, most important, super absorbent. This helps prevent mold and mildew from growing in the mat and creating a biohazard in your bathroom.
The smooth stone makes for a sleek look, and the mats often come in neutrals that blend into any color scheme. Your bathroom deserves this kind of forethought and TLC, so save your plush towels from becoming emergency rugs with these stone bath mats. Whether you want to try the Live Better Award-winning Dorai bath stone or your organic modern aesthetic calls for smooth river stones, we've rounded up some of the best options for you.
Mondano Stone Bath Mat
Pros
- Easy to Clean
- Durable
Cons
- Pattern can be uncomfortable to step on
The sedimentary algae in this stone bath mat is extra durable, so try an extra one for outdoor spaces. Make it an easy transition from a day in the pool or lounging in the hot tub to drying off, or make this mat the last stop from the patio to inside the house. The extra quartz in the mat makes it less prone to warping over time too.
Dorai Home Large Bath Stone
Dorai Home Large Bath Stone
Pros
- Larger surface area
- Adjustable for different areas of the house
Cons
- Expensive
The Dorai bath stone is already a House Beautiful favorite, and this larger edition covers even more of your bathroom floor in quick-drying stone. The four stone tiles are rearrangeable, allowing you to place this mat wherever makes the most sense in your space.
Latitude Run Trianon Quick-dry Diatomite Stone Bath Mat
Latitude Run Trianon Quick-dry Diatomite Stone Bath Mat
Pros
- Quick drying
- Comes in multiple colors
Cons
- Smaller size
- Some water gets in between the slats
Although the typical neutrals of stone bath mats blend into any aesthetic, who doesn't love a pop of color? This mat (seen here in white) also comes in periwinkle, pastel green, and even pink for your Barbiecore design dreams. The sleek slatted design makes it a visually appealing addition to your home, a combination of fashion and functionality.
Pros
- Water evaporates quickly
- Safe nonslip mat
- Extra grip on mat's surface
Cons
- Requires some upkeep
- Small for a bath mat
The stone in this mat is made from fossilized plankton, designed to absorb large amounts of water at a time. One reviewer loves it because it minimizes falls coming out of the shower, bringing you serious peace of mind if you live with young children or senior relatives.
Magic Stone Storm Cloud Stone Bath Mat
Magic Stone Storm Cloud Stone Bath Mat
Pros
- Multiuse
- Odorless
- Anti-mold
Cons
- Mat's color drains faster
With this mat, think outside the bathroom. Use it in your home's entryway on a rainy day, as a dish drying rack, or to mitigate spills around a pet's water bowl. Reviewers with pets praise this mat for its ability to minimize mess when their furry friends are taking a drink. As all dog or cat owners know, sometimes things get sloppy.
Momo Lifestyle Stone Bath Mat
Pros
- More comfortable surface
- Eco-friendly natural material
Cons
- Leaves light water stains overnight
Momo Lifestyle opted for a smoother surface for this mat as opposed to the etched grooves, optimizing underfoot comfort. The luxurious feel of the mat is absorbent and repels mildew. It's a bit on the smaller side, so if you're working with a bigger space, try the larger alternative.
