Custom Pool

The Endless “Vista” Pool. This pool was one of the finishing touches on this amazing home, Casa Del Aire y Sol, that we have been lucky enough to be improving for many years.

Inspired by a love for above ground pools in Cabo San Lucas, this design was intended to ground the edges of a previously infrequently used deck and make it a space where people could congregate and enjoy the water, whether they were inside the pool or just sitting on the edge.

Because the deck was existing and also a sealed system, the engineering and design definitely had its challenges in order to provide adequate drainage of the deck and still allow for a great seamless function and aesthetic.

We had to make the pool look like it was always there and always part of the original landscape design, so adding the planter walls not only provided a really great breaking point for an otherwise daunting exterior elevation, but it also provided the owners with some relief as the planter doubles as a “safety net” for any accidental falls or overzealous youngsters. The owners report that it was one of their favorite design solutions and that they are so happy to see their (14) grandkids jumping from the pool edge into the water and playing in it as if it was a ground level pool, and they are never worried.

Because the home itself already had so many great “Cabo-esque” features, it wasn’t hard to get this pool to feel like it wasn’t an afterthought and adding some beautiful hand painted terracotta tiles for the water line really set this vibe in motion.

The location of this pool is also directly off of an amazing recreational room and bar area that the owner’s family spends a lot of time in, while the hot tub was strategically positioned closer to the private master suite. This provides dual functionality so that when the owner’s are just at home by themselves, they can use the hot tub as an extension of their master bathroom and master suite, whereas, at larger gatherings, they have the ability to open up all of their adjacent doors and windows and really allow for a wonderful indoor/outdoor entertaining experience. 

We just love this pool and this home and are so thankful to have been able to build it!
