Not really. Hot Water is relaxing because being warm is relaxing- it loosens muscles and tendons and ligaments while also increasing blood flow (in an attempt to cool off, but it helps with sore muscles by accelerating built up waste,)
But because sweating doesn’t work in a, eventually you’ll over heat and die… eventually. 20min @100-105f is all it can take.
78f water on a 78f day will feel cooler because of the of the thermal properties of air and water (and sweating,) but that’s not why a hot tub or sauna is relaxing
Water at about that temperature does feel comfy since water does a great job at transfering heat.
Air is different since it doesn’t transfer heat as well we prefer about 75F.
