Planning Your Dream Pool in 2025: What to Know Before You Dig

There’s nothing quite like having your own pool in your backyard. It’s the perfect way to enjoy Australia’s sunny weather, entertain guests, and create a luxurious space where you can unwind and relax. If you’re dreaming of your own personal oasis, now is the time to start planning for 2025! But before you dig, there are a few key things every Aussie homeowner should know.

Here’s your ultimate guide to building the perfect pool, from choosing the right style to understanding installation—and everything in between. Let’s dive in!

1. What’s Your Pool Purpose? Fitness, Fun, or Relaxation?

The first step in planning your dream pool is to decide how you’ll use it. Is it all about staying fit, relaxing after a long day, or maybe a little of both? Your pool’s purpose will help guide your decision on type, size, and features.

• Fitness Fanatic? If you want to swim laps or enjoy a fitness routine, a Swim Spa is your best bet. Our In-Ground Swim Spas or Portable Swim Spas let you swim against a current, providing a fantastic workout without needing a massive pool. Alternatively, if you have space for a larger area, our 6m to 10m Pools offer ample room for fitness and fun.
• Relaxation Mode: For those who want to escape the hustle and bustle, a Plunge Pool offers a compact yet refreshing solution. Perfect for cooling off on hot Aussie days, plunge pools can fit into smaller backyards, making them an ideal choice for the urban dweller. And if you can’t decide between swimming and spa time, why not have both with our Pool & Spa Combos?
• Entertainment Ready: Love hosting BBQs and pool parties? Go for a larger pool with an eye-catching feature. Our Freestanding Pools come in a range of sizes, from a sleek 3m pool to a grand 10m pool, ideal for entertaining friends and family.

2. Size Matters: Choose the Right Pool for Your Space

A backyard pool is a big investment, and the size of your pool should fit both your lifestyle and your available space. Australia’s outdoor spaces are diverse, so consider the layout of your property before committing to the size and shape of your pool.

• Compact Yet Stylish: For small to medium backyards, a Plunge Pool or 3m – 4m Pool is ideal. These pools are perfect for urban properties or homes with limited space. They offer a luxurious feel without overwhelming your outdoor space.
• A Pool for the Whole Family: If you’ve got a larger space and a family to accommodate, our 7m – 10m Pools offer plenty of room for swimming and playing. These pools are perfect for everyone, from kids learning to swim to adults who want to stretch out and enjoy a proper swim.
• Custom Designs: At Endless Pools and Spas, we offer flexible designs to make sure your pool fits into your space and your vision. Whether you prefer a classic rectangular shape or a custom design, we can make it happen.

3. Consider Your Pool Features: Going Beyond the Basics

In 2025, pools are more than just a place to swim—they’re about creating an experience. From relaxation to hydrotherapy, your pool can be as unique as your lifestyle. Consider adding some of these popular features to make your pool stand out:

• Hydrotherapy Jets: Add a touch of luxury with hydrotherapy jets. Available in our Inground Spas, these jets will help you unwind and recover after a workout. Imagine soaking in warm, bubbling water under the stars—a perfect way to relax!
• LED Lighting: For those evening swims or poolside gatherings, LED lighting can completely transform your pool. Customisable lights allow you to create the perfect mood and highlight the beauty of your pool as the sun sets.
• Waterfalls & Fountains: Bring a touch of nature to your backyard with a waterfall or fountain. The calming sound of water cascading into your pool will add an extra layer of relaxation and create an atmosphere of serenity.
• Energy-Efficient Heating: Keep your pool comfortable year-round with energy-efficient solar pool heating or chillers. Perfect for the Australian climate, these options ensure your pool stays at the perfect temperature, whether you’re cooling off in summer or warming up in winter.

4. Budgeting for Your  Dream Pool

Building your dream pool is an exciting project, but it’s essential to set a realistic budget. The price of your pool will depend on several factors, including the size, design, features, and installation process. Here’s a quick guide to help you plan:

• Affordable Luxury: Endless Pools and Spas offers a range of pools starting with our compact 3m – 4m Pools up to larger 10m Pools and Swim Spas. Prices can vary depending on the size and features, but our expert team will work with you to ensure that you get the best value for your money.
• Additional Costs: Be sure to factor in costs for installation, landscaping, and pool maintenance. With a quality pool from Endless Pools and Spas, maintenance will be minimal, but it’s important to plan for cleaning, water treatment, and occasional repairs.
• Long-Term Investment: Remember, a pool is a long-term investment that adds value to your property and enhances your quality of life. With a range of options to fit various budgets, you’re sure to find the perfect pool for your needs.

5. The Installation Process: From Dream to Reality

Once you’ve chosen your pool and features, the next step is installation. While the process can seem daunting, Endless Pools and Spas has you covered with expert guidance every step of the way. Here’s a quick breakdown of what to expect:

• Site Assessment: Before we begin, we’ll assess your property to ensure the space is suitable for the pool design and installation. This helps us identify any potential obstacles or necessary preparations.
• Excavation and Installation: Our experienced team will handle the excavation and installation, ensuring that every detail is done to perfection. From plumbing and electrical work to the final touches, we’ll make sure everything is set up correctly.
• Post-Installation Care: After installation, we’ll guide you through proper pool maintenance, ensuring your pool remains in excellent condition for years to come.
