Designing Your Backyard Oasis

When it comes to the best pool designs gold coast has on offer you can’t go past the customisability of a concrete pool. The possibilities are endless with a concrete swimming pool. This is why the team here at Bali Pools loves the flexibility of concrete over a pre-formed fiberglass pool. We love seeing your ideas and dreams come to life. From a patch of dirt to a heavenly oasis. Let’s talk all things pool concrete pool design.

Concrete Pools Offer Flexibility in Design

By choosing to install a new concrete swimming pool – you don’t need to settle for a factory made, everyone has one, rectangle swimming pool! Add in curves to make it a free form pool. Small spaces are no worry for us, make it square or follow the line of your yard and house to get more swimming space. Maybe you have extra space? No more fighting for a lane at the local swimming pool when you can add a lap pool to your own backyard. Thanks to the flexibility of concrete you can even build a concrete pool above ground for those slopping block, therefore making for more usable space. The design is only limited by your imagination.

Putting the Deep End in the Centre of the Pool

The concept of a swimming pool has always had a deep end and a shallow end – it’s always just made sense right – what if I told you about the option of having a middle deep pool? That’s right, shallow at both ends with the deepest spot in the middle. Sounds strange right but picture this – you dive into the “deep end” of the pool and by the time you’re at your deepest point your half-way through the pool anyway.

Now think about the kids wanting to throw the ball back and forth, unless one of your kids is super tall, someone always gets tired and you hear “it’s your turn to be in the deep end for a bit”. Why not eliminate that all together and make the centre of your pool the deepest part? Pop up a volleyball net and you’ll have hours of endless fun from either end and, as parents, giggles are way better than the alternative of the “it’s your turn in the deep end” debate.

Choose the Location of Steps and Benches

With a concrete swimming pool, you’re in charge of everything – don’t want the steps there, swap them over, want a ledge the whole way along the side or end, no problems! Want to add a larger swim out for the younger kids to splash about on? Done! You’re in complete charge of the layout – our dedicated design consultant will work with you to help ensure your decision making is less overwhelming, offering suggestions – even things like a smaller step in a different corner of the pool for another exit point are no problem for us to include.

Relax Those Tired Muscles

The idea of relaxing after work or on the weekend in a spa is heavenly. Add in a glass of bubbles while I soak in the bubbles and there’s a high chance I might be late for work tomorrow boss! Another benefit of concrete swimming pools is that you can literally turn any part of your pool into a spa – want a separate raised spa in the middle on one side – no problems, want the spa inside your swimming pool area, sure thing! Or perhaps you want the luxury of a spa without encroaching on the swimming pool area? Why not add spa jets to your ledge and turn part of your swimming pool into a relaxing zone? Show us your ideas and we will help make it a reality at your home. We have plenty of pool with spa designs to get your imagination thinking.

Laps anyone?

Want to do laps? (And no, we’re not talking about driving round the streets of Surfers with your windows down and music blaring), but maybe you don’t have the room for a lap pool? Did you know that you can include swim jets into your pool construction and create a strong flow of water to swim against. Imagine the health benefits this would create. No more excuses to not get up and go for a swim before work, right?

Luxury Design

Choose a luxury swimming pool design that’ll be sure to make for that private getaway in the comfort of your own backyard. Concrete swimming pool builds have always offered options that other types of pool material just can’t compete with. Do you have access to an incredible view from your pool area? Why not consider the inclusion of an infinity edge for your swimming pool? Watch as your pool water seemingly disappears on one side of your swimming pool. Or make a bold statement and add a glass side to your swimming pool?

Luxury Pool Accessories

Here are Bali Pools, we believe that the addition of a concrete swimming pool in your back yard is an investment, one that will add value to your home and provide years of entertainment as your family grows and changes. So why not ‘splash’ out on some luxury additions. Consider fully tiling your pool, adding a fire pit, lighting up the pool and surrounds, or adding a water feature.

 If you love the idea of soaking up the suns rays while enjoying your new pool, why not add a tanning lounge to your pool. The look and feel of these in-pool lounges are super high end, but more achievable than you would think – why do we have to wait until we’re on holidays to sit in the water and sip on cocktails – bring the holiday to your very own backyard, everyday!

Swimming Pool Slides

Do you have young kids? Make pool side memories a breeze with the addition of a pool slide. You just know that they’re going to have endless hours of fun sliding into the pool.

There are so many options when it comes to swimming pool slides. From straight, curvy, and landscape integrated slides, you’ll be sure to find the best on for your pool with our team of pool designers.

Light it up

Look through the top advantages to pool lighting. Underwater lighting plays a large part in the over all ambiance and look of your new pool – don’t just stop at 1 light in the middle. Add multiple pool lights around the sides, make them multicoloured to add fun to your night-time entertainment or go for a complete glamourous look and add in LED lighting built into the under ledge of your pool coping.

Add a Water Feature

Love the ambience of waterfalls? Why not add a water feature to your swimming pool build! Choose to include a feature wall in your pool build – all shapes, sizes, lengths and heights can be added to the edge of your concrete swimming pool to create a beautiful change in the overall design or add one to hide your swimming pool filtration equipment. You can choose to include a water blade or just have the wall as a feature on its own.
