A swimming pool is more than a place to cool off. When designed with care and creativity, it becomes the centrepiece of your home - a statement of style, relaxation and luxury.
At Pacific Pools, we believe every pool should reflect its owner's personality and lifestyle. That's why we offer a range of premium features that transform a simple pool into a resort-quality experience. From stunning water features to elegant lighting, these additions elevate your outdoor space and create a lasting impression.
Here are the most popular luxury pool features that can take your backyard to the next level.
1. Infinity Edges
Few features make an impact like an infinity edge. Designed so water flows seamlessly over one or more sides, this feature creates a stunning visual effect that blends your pool into the landscape. It's especially powerful in Auckland homes with ocean, bush or city views.
Infinity pools are perfect for homeowners who want a sleek, modern design with a strong architectural presence.
2. Integrated Spas
Adding a spa or hot tub to your pool design brings both comfort and versatility. Imagine unwinding in a warm spa after a swim or enjoying a hydrotherapy session under the stars.
Integrated spas can be designed with matching finishes and lighting, creating a cohesive look.
3. Waterfalls and Water Features
The sound of flowing water instantly transforms any pool area into a calming retreat. Waterfalls, fountains and bubblers add movement, texture and a sense of tranquillity to your design.
At Pacific Pools, we can create everything from subtle water curtains to bold rock-style waterfalls.
4. LED Lighting Systems
Lighting is one of the simplest ways to elevate your pool's ambience. LED systems let you create different moods - from soft, romantic glows to vibrant colours for entertaining.
Underwater lights, floating or wall-mounted fixtures and illuminated water features can all be integrated into your pool's design.
5. Premium Finishes and Materials
Luxury is in the details, and the materials you choose define the look and feel of your pool. Finishes such as glass mosaic tiles, Quartzon, marble plaster or natural stone create depth and elegance.
Coping stones and surrounding decking also play a key role. Travertine, sandstone or polished concrete can complement your pool's design and enhance your home's overall aesthetic.
6. Fire and Water Combinations
For a dramatic, high-end effect, consider combining fire and water elements. Fire bowls or linear gas features placed near the pool's edge create a striking contrast between flame and reflection.
This combination adds warmth, visual intrigue and an unforgettable atmosphere at night.
7. Automated Pool Systems
Modern technology allows you to control your pool with ease. Automated systems can manage filtration, heating, lighting and cleaning from your smartphone or tablet.
These systems reduce maintenance time and energy costs while keeping your pool in pristine condition.
Transform Your Backyard Into a Resort
A well designed pool should reflect more than function - it should express your vision of luxury. With the right features and craftsmanship, your backyard can become a retreat that feels like a five-star escape.
