Here are a few more photos...concerned if we keep vanity on the left side, there may not be enough space between the vanity and the extended shower (making it 48” x 32” w) . Considering a 18” vanity, or we put the vanity where the tub is. And turn the toilet so it faces the door when you walk in. Or is that not nice?

Your door that swings inside the bathroom is taking up a lot of precious real estate. Have you considered different door styles such as a pocket door, an outside mounted sliding door or, if it's an en-suite bathroom, door(s) that swing out into the adjacent room? That would give you a much larger vanity to work with.

Is this a hall bath or an en-suite?

Yes, the door swinging in takes precious real estate.

Every plumbing change means more cost. Moving fixtures requires plumbing changes. That said, a good arrangement may include moving fixtures.
An in-swinging door is normal. An out-swinging door can cause accidents. A pocket door gives less privacy because there is always a gap.
I prefer the toilet location beyond the shower and a longer vanity with four drawers in addition to doors.
Overhead lighting plus two sconces beside the mirror/medicine cabinet gives the best illumination for grooming.

Thank you everyone! It is actually our one and only bathroom - it opens to a hallway and we can not put in a pocket door. We are told to keep the tub for resale value but my mom is elderly and never uses it - a larger shower is needed. GC said “moving toilet would be no extra cost” so we are considering moving the toilet so it won’t be the first thing you see when you walk into bathroom. I wonder if the space is better for a larger vanity tho. I really need help! Demo starts next week.

Actually I think the layout is fine as it is, having the tub adds extra value to the house. I would add and wall tiles way up the wall surrounding the tub. I love the sink!

Minus ‘and’ - sorry

Momof5x - that’s is for your reply! It’s so great to get feedback on this site. Well, the first thing to go is that 1990 sink. We need storage! I was thinking a floating 36” x 18” vanity. If we keep in same spot, and move the toilet to the corner. If we put the sink in the corner I have more space and can do a 42”-48” vanity along the wall I am just afraid it will look all crunches together on that wall. The first thing you would see when walking straight in to the bathroom would be the toilet. Is that ok? The shower will be all glass, with a portable/temp bench that can be removed, so the shower would be completely see though so to speak. Or we can do a pony wall w/built in bench to hide the toilet in the corner....too many decisions! Help.

*THANKS for your reply....is what I meant to type!!! Appreciate all/any comments. This is such a hard decision. Here is my tile thinking I will do blue in the floor and grey up the wall with maybe white subway but not sure - the tape in the photo is my existing shower and the blue tape is the new footprint of the shower.

We have now changed our mind on the tile and I really need input! Can someone help us? Is this a nice combo or does it look dated? And do we stack the floor tile or off set it? Well as white gloss or matte?

Love your new choices....very calming and expands the room...keep it up, looks lovely....just try not to add a million cutesy looks to a very basic bathroom....keep it plain and basic and splurge on sensuous towels and awesome soaps.....
