At the heart of the Very Special Kids Hospice House lies a truly special place - the hydrotherapy pool. This pool isn't just about therapy; it's about creating cherished memories and bringing joy to the lives of Victoria's sickest children and their families. Here's a glimpse into how this world-class facility is making a real difference in the lives of those who need support the most. The journey towards the Sister Margaret Noone Hospice at Very Special Kids House on Glenferrie Road was a culmination of six years of meticulous planning and construction. The aim was clear - to create a vibrant, comforting space for paediatric palliative care residents. Central to this vision was the need for a wheelchair-accessible hydrotherapy pool that met strict Australasian Guidelines for medical hydrotherapy pools.<figure><img src="https://media.alohapools.com.au/assets/main/VSK1.jpg" data-image="20911" alt="Aloha Pools - Very Special Kids Hydrotherapy Pool"></figure>

Designing a hydrotherapy pool isn't just about aesthetics; it's a highly specialised task governed by stringent regulations. The team at Aloha Pools was called upon for their expertise in navigating these guidelines while ensuring the pool's functionality and safety. Factors like water quality, access, safety protocols, and compliance were meticulously addressed to provide a dignified and immersive therapeutic experience. The hydrotherapy pool isn't just a facility; it's a lifeline for children with complex needs. Aquatic physiotherapy offers a range of benefits, from increased independence and pain relief to improved fitness and social interaction. For children with sensory processing disorders, the pool provides a calming sanctuary away from over-stimulation.<figure><img src="https://media.alohapools.com.au/assets/main/VSK2.jpg" data-image="20918" alt="Aloha Pools - Very Speical Kids Hydrotherapy Pool"></figure>
Within the tranquil environment of the hospice, children can partake in tailored aquatic physiotherapy sessions. The pool's design, with its warm temperature and accessibility features, ensures that every child can experience the joys and healing properties of water therapy. Prior assessments with physiotherapists ensure that each session is personalised to meet individual needs and goals.<figure><img src="https://media.alohapools.com.au/assets/main/VSK3.jpg" data-image="20925" alt="Aloha Pools - Very Special Kids Hydrotherapy Pool"></figure>


The Very Special Kids Hydrotherapy Pool isn't just a pool; it's a beacon of hope and healing. Through careful planning, expertise, and a deep understanding of therapeutic needs, this pool embodies the spirit of care and compassion that defines the Very Special Kids Hospice House. It's a place where every splash is a step towards joy, independence, and improved quality of life for those who need it most.

The pool maintains the original vision of European grandeur infused with contemporary Australian flair while adhering to commercial swimming pool compliance standards.

forms part of the guest entrance water feature. The heat for the pool is
 generated from a central boiler and circulated through heat exchanges 
on the pool hydraulic system. Custom stainless steel skimmer boxes have 
been used to reduce the structural weight of the pool.<figure><img src="https://media.alohapools.com.au/assets/main/m3374b_5238_%C2%A9Trevor-Mein-2023.jpg" data-image="20868" alt="Aloha Pools - Intercontinental Sorrento"></figure>

The pool's strategic positioning allows its waters to be a focal point from the interior kitchen and dining areas, creating a harmonious connection between indoor comfort and outdoor splendour. To achieve this, an innovative construction approach was employed, featuring an extensive array of bored concrete piers and a below-ground structure that elevates the pool to the desired height.<figure><img src="https://media.alohapools.com.au/assets/main/240130_Aloha_Pools-0144-Enhanced-NR.jpg" data-image="20814" alt="Aloha Pools Luxury Pool - The Point"></figure>
One of the key aspects of this Aloha Pools project was the meticulous waterproofing detailing around the building structure, ensuring not just aesthetic appeal but also long-term structural integrity. Additionally, fencing was seamlessly integrated into the pool shell, enhancing safety without compromising the pool's visual appeal.<figure><img src="https://media.alohapools.com.au/assets/main/240130_Aloha_Pools-0135.jpg" data-image="20816" alt="Aloha Pools Luxury Pool - The Point"></figure>

In addition to the pool itself, the homeowner enlisted our expertise for a comprehensive hardscape package. This included the construction of retaining walls and fencing to enhance both the aesthetic appeal and functionality of the outdoor space. To further elevate the overall design, the homeowner also requested additional works such as rendering and capping for the retaining walls, ensuring a cohesive and polished finish to their outdoor oasis.<figure><img src="https://media.alohapools.com.au/assets/main/240301_Aloha_Pools-0990-HDR-copy.jpg" data-image="20792" alt="Aloha Pools Luxury Pool - Sunset House"></figure>
Situated on a sloping block with challenging foundation conditions, the project required meticulous engineering and construction expertise to address the presence of highly reactive soil. Our team skillfully designed and executed the swimming pool and associated retaining walls, employing advanced techniques to mitigate the effects of the challenging terrain. Through strategic engineering solutions, we ensured the structural integrity and stability of the pool and retaining walls, providing a durable and long-lasting solution tailored to the specific requirements of the site.

Nestled in the serene beauty of Sorrento, Victoria, a modern beach house stands as a tranquil escape for a family seeking relaxation and rejuvenation. At the heart of this idyllic setting lies a shimmering elevated pool and spa, surrounded by natural stone rocks, creating a raw yet elegant feature that blends seamlessly with the surroundings.
<figure><img src="https://media.alohapools.com.au/assets/main/230316_Aloha_Pools-5237-HDR.jpg" data-image="20729" alt="Sorrento House Luxury Pool Melbourne"></figure>
 The client's vision was to create a raw yet elegant feature for their modern beach house, an inviting oasis that instantly captivates visitors with its serene charm. The swimming pool was to be a focal point, constructed over the old existing pool, utilizing the elevated nature of the block to include an overflow edge for both the pool and spa.
<figure><img src="https://media.alohapools.com.au/assets/main/230316_Aloha_Pools-5455.jpg" data-image="20732" alt="Luxury Pool Melbourne Sorrento"></figure>
The project presented several challenges, notably in designing and installing the structural support system. The old pool couldn't bear the load of the new one, requiring meticulous engineering to integrate the new pool with the existing structure. Working at heights added complexity, as did ensuring seamless integration with surrounding materials and decking heights. Close collaboration between architects, engineers, and the client was essential throughout the process.
<figure><img src="https://media.alohapools.com.au/assets/main/230316_Aloha_Pools-5240-HDR.jpg" data-image="20734" alt="Luxury Pool Melbourne Sorrento"></figure>
Despite the challenges, the project incorporated innovative design solutions. An overflow design not only adds visual appeal but also reduces heat and water loss, enhancing the pool's sustainability and efficiency. The result is a harmonious blend of functionality and aesthetics, where every aspect contributes to the overall luxury experience.

 Hydrotherapy pools differ from conventional ones in their meticulous coordination of factors, including temperature, pressure, water movement, safety features, and equipment configuration. These pools are specifically tailored to accommodate therapeutic objectives, offering a unique environment for holistic whole-body therapeutic treatment.
The benefits of hydrotherapy are well-documented by leading healthcare professionals. The buoyancy of water effectively reduces the impact on the body, making movement easier. The warmth of the water elevates body temperature, promoting enhanced blood flow throughout the circulatory system and providing relief from pain. Improved circulation facilitates the healing process of injured tissues, aids in the rehabilitation of damaged muscles or joints, and contributes to a greater range of movement and strength. Additionally, individuals may experience improved mood, sleep, fitness, and weight loss, particularly when movement is otherwise challenging.<figure><img src="https://media.alohapools.com.au/assets/main/Hydro_2024-02-06-004131_ibig.jpg" data-image="20665" alt="Hydrotherapy Pool"></figure>
In high-performance centers for elite athletes or commercial apartment buildings, incorporating a hydrotherapy or wellness pool can significantly elevate the appeal and distinguish the facility from others. The added benefits of hydrotherapy make these pools valuable assets for various settings. Aloha Pools stands out as an expert in hydrotherapy with over 57 years of experience in the pool industry. Renowned for expertise in hydrotherapy, wellness, and rehabilitation spaces, Aloha Pools excels in delivering high-end residential and commercial construction projects. The company's proficiency extends to addressing critical factors such as water quality, access, safety, risk management, and compliance requirements associated with hydrotherapy pools.

Melbourne's historic Pentridge Prison site has undergone an extraordinary metamorphosis, transforming into a one-billion-dollar dining and entertainment precinct. For the developers, this project was a passion project, so when they invited Aloha Pools to be part of it, we eagerly embraced the opportunity. With only a few prison hotel conversions worldwide, the client had distinct expectations for this venture. A key highlight of this stunning development is the exclusive underground sanctuary pool, catering to premier guests of "The Interlude." In this blog post, we'll explore the challenges faced during the transformation process and the remarkable outcome that has become a destination unlike any other.<figure><img src="https://media.alohapools.com.au/assets/main/230124_Aloha_Pools-2114-HDR.jpg" data-image="20187" alt="The Interlude Aloha Pool 2"></figure>
Preserving History, Embracing Modernity: Building a contemporary hotel on the grounds of a 170-year-old heritage site came with unique challenges. The construction of the modern Adina tower took nearly two years, during which builders meticulously monitored Pentridge's renowned bluestone walls to ensure they remained untouched while the three-level basement was constructed. Preserving the historical integrity of the site while creating a modern lifestyle precinct was a delicate balance that required skilled craftsmanship and attention to detail.<figure><img src="https://media.alohapools.com.au/assets/main/1230124_Aloha_Pools-2288.jpg" data-image="20193" alt="The Interlude Aloha Pools 3"></figure>
Given the age of the heritage prison, the utmost care was taken to safeguard the well-being of all workers involved in the project. Before setting foot on the site, construction workers underwent blood tests to determine lead levels. Follow-up tests were conducted at regular intervals, A safe working environment & a commitment to safety never wavered. Transforming the prison cells into an underground pool sanctuary required innovative solutions. The plant room, a converted area from two old prison cells, presented challenges in core drilling through the robust bluestone and concrete. Moreover, accessibility for disabled individuals was a priority, and the design and construction incorporated facilities such as the pelican hoist, making the underground pool area inclusive for all guests.<figure><img src="https://media.alohapools.com.au/assets/main/230124_Aloha_Pools-2246.jpg" data-image="20205" alt="The Interlude Aloha Pools 4"></figure>
The crowning jewel of the entire development is the exclusive underground sanctuary pool. Boasting clean, sharp lines and adorned with Midnight Blue Mix tiles, the Aloha pool exudes sophistication. This juxtaposition of modern design with the age-old bluestone walls creates a breathtaking visual contrast, fulfilling the client's vision for this historic site. 
Dubbed "The Interlude," the hotel provides guests with an experience-led urban retreat. Premier visitors can immerse themselves in the historic ambiance of the site while enjoying top-notch amenities and services. The blending of history and modernity creates a one-of-a-kind experience that guests will cherish forever.

In the heart of Melbourne's CBD, a boutique collection of beautifully appointed residences at 17 Spring Street has set a new benchmark for luxury living. Designed by award-winning architects, Bates Smart, these residences offer spacious interiors with contemporary paired-back styling and breathtaking views of the Treasury Gardens and beyond. One of the standout features of this development is the luxurious pool by Aloha Pools, designed to provide residents with a sense of connection to the outdoors while maintaining privacy. Let’s explore the unique elements and innovative design methodologies that make this pool a truly exceptional and opulent space.<figure><img src="https://media.alohapools.com.au/assets/main/230220_Aloha_Pools-4771.jpg" data-image="19865"></figure>
 A rectangular shape with offset steps, adding a touch of geometric elegance to its design. Its dimensions measure an impressive 20m x 4.0m, with an additional offset section measuring 2.5m x 1.2m. This carefully crafted layout ensures ample space for residents to enjoy a refreshing swim or lounge by the poolside. The pool's interior boasts individually laid, non-meshed glass clear mosaic tiles, which create a stunning visual effect. This choice of materials enhances the pool's reflective properties, giving it an ethereal and weightless appearance. To maintain a sense of luxury, custom-designed stainless steel handrails were incorporated, providing both functionality and aesthetic appeal.<figure><img src="https://media.alohapools.com.au/assets/main/230220_Aloha_Pools-4604.jpg" data-image="19862"></figure>
The location of the swimming pool at the top of Spring Street in Melbourne's CBD presented challenges regarding site access. To overcome this issue, careful planning and coordination were required. Furthermore, the pool itself posed unique complexities due to its suspended design, using spring isolation mounts to decouple it from the main building structure. The clean and crisp lines of the pool design demanded precise workmanship and attention to detail.<figure><img src="https://media.alohapools.com.au/assets/main/230220_Aloha_Pools-4664.jpg" data-image="19864"></figure>
The pool at 17 Spring Street represents the epitome of luxurious Scandinavian-style design. Its carefully crafted shape, meticulous attention to detail, and innovative design elements create a space where residents can savour the magnificent views of Treasury Gardens while enjoying the utmost privacy and opulence. This pool sets a new benchmark for luxury living in Melbourne, and its exceptional craftsmanship and tailored bespoke finishes make it a true masterpiece in the realm of swimming pool design.

In the heart of Raelene Boyle Retirement Village, a sanctuary of tranquility and vitality awaits its cherished residents. A sparkling swimming pool and a therapeutic spa form a focal point that embodies a lifestyle of community, wellness, and easy living for the elderly residents.
The Vision: When envisioning this oasis, the client's directive was clear: create a space that nurtures a sense of unity and vibrant living without compromising the safety and comfort of the residents, each with unique care needs. The outcome needed to be a harmonious blend of rejuvenation, companionship, and relaxation. The swimming pool and spa were identified as integral components to fulfill these aspirations.<figure><img src="https://media.alohapools.com.au/assets/main/230213_Aloha_Pools-4483.jpg" data-image="20384"></figure>
A Hub of Community and Wellbeing: These aquatic amenities became the epicenter of community engagement. The swimming pool design was thoughtfully tailored for organized activities, leisurely swims, and sociable gatherings. On the other hand, the spa extended its arms to offer therapeutic benefits, fostering not only physical wellness but also a space for residents to connect and converse.
Mobility and Accessibility: This oasis is designed with inclusivity at its core. Access and mobility are seamlessly woven into the fabric of the space. A DDA-compliant pool hoist stands as a symbol of the commitment to catering to all abilities, while LED lighting and carefully marked pool steps further enhance accessibility.<figure><img src="https://media.alohapools.com.au/assets/main/230213_Aloha_Pools-4420_2023-10-23-054449_rsci.jpg" data-image="20383"></figure>

The Oasis at Raelene Boyle Retirement Village

Where rustic industrial meets polished sophistication, Victoria & Vine pays homage to New York City's meat-packing district's best hotels. These luxury pools and spas sprawl over three immersive levels and were designed for total relaxation and pleasure, entertainment and seclusion.

Victoria & Vine celebrates heritage and architectural revival, with each pool and spa set within a luxurious space, combining greenery with industrial elements that pay homage to its surrounding vibrant culture.
<figure><img src="https://media.alohapools.com.au/assets/main/05_VicVine.jpg" data-image="19557"></figure>
A clear understanding of the project aspirations allowed our team of expert pool builders to cut to the core of the project requirements with a large amount of design vision to achieve an outstanding result. 

One of the plunge pools utilises an innovative construction method with a single piece of acrylic panel to minimise cork joints' leaking, reduce the silicon expansion joints, and protect the faux lattice window framing from the pool water. A considered design element, the faux lattice window frames are a beautiful addition that evokes aspects of the overall property design. 
<figure><img src="https://media.alohapools.com.au/assets/main/04_VicVine.jpg" data-image="19556"></figure>
Sustainable practices have been adopted into the building of the main pool with an overflow edge design to preserve the plants planted beside the pool from the burning effects of the pool water. The materiality of the sun lounges within this luxury pool are made of lightweight fibre to avoid adding additional structural weight and are easy to manoeuvre whilst creating the illusion of floating within the space. 

The pools and spa have been designed with glass mosaic tiles delivering a luxury interior finish. The subtle use of tiles in the main pool allows the pool to serve as a lap pool without compromising on the overall luxury feel of the pool. 
<figure><img src="https://media.alohapools.com.au/assets/main/00_VicVine.jpg" data-image="19543"></figure>
Residents of Victoria & Vine, where East Melbourne meets Lower East Side, enjoy 5-star hotel amenities with approximately 4,500 sqm of secluded outdoor space designed for relaxation and pleasure, entertainment and seclusion.

Redefining luxury with a New York state of mind

<figure><img src="https://media.alohapools.com.au/assets/main/230310_Aloha_Pools-5127.jpg" data-image="19903"></figure>
In the leafy suburb of Alphington, just a short distance from Melbourne's bustling city center, lies an architectural masterpiece called Home Alphington. This 16-story residential complex boasts Terrace Homes, Sky homes, and Apartments designed to elevate everyday living. One of its most striking features is a rooftop pool by Aloha Pools that not only offers breathtaking views of the Melbourne City skyline but also serves as a signature design element and marketing highlight for this new development. The rooftop pool at Home was conceived to be a resort-style oasis, offering residents a serene escape with a visual connection to the city on the horizon. To achieve this, the pool's design incorporated expansive acrylic panels that beautifully merge the building and the swimming pool. These panels not only provide a retaining structure for the pool water but also act as a unique wind barrier, protecting the internal communal spaces from the elements.<figure><img src="https://media.alohapools.com.au/assets/main/230310_Aloha_Pools-5062.jpg" data-image="19902"></figure>
The pool's allure is further enhanced by its stunning dappled blue mosaic tiles, which elegantly blend with the skyline. These tiles create an illusion of an endless horizon, transforming the pool into a sparkling jewel atop the magnificent communal living space. As residents relax in the pool, they can immerse themselves in the beauty of the cityscape, harmonising urban living with natural surroundings. Constructing such an architectural marvel came with its fair share of complexities. The addition of pre-cut acrylic panels and the unique geometry of the pool structure posed challenges in terms of site logistics and mobilisation. The swimming pool structure was acoustically and structurally isolated from the main building, adding further intricacies to the project. Extensive engineering modelling was required to account for additional wind loads on the panels. To manage expansion and contraction, the pool opted for three equally segmented units rather than a single panel. Stainless-steel structural mullions were introduced to provide additional support to the panels, ensuring their longevity and stability.<figure><img src="https://media.alohapools.com.au/assets/main/230206_Aloha_Pools-3121.jpg" data-image="19901"></figure>
When viewed from street level, the rooftop pool at Home creates a captivating optical illusion of floating above the building. This captivating visual aspect seamlessly integrates the pool within the urban landscape, enhancing its overall appeal and making it a true architectural marvel.<figure><img src="https://media.alohapools.com.au/assets/main/230206_Aloha_Pools-2784.jpg" data-image="19900"></figure>
Home in Alphington presents an exceptional rooftop pool that transcends the ordinary, offering residents a luxurious oasis in the heart of the city. With its breathtaking views, expansive acrylic panels, and dappled blue mosaic tiles, this rooftop pool embodies the epitome of communal living. It serves as a testament to the remarkable fusion of design, engineering, and aesthetics, creating an unrivalled experience for those fortunate enough to call it home.

Exploring a sparkling jewel in Alphington

A sophisticated new arrival on Melbourne's eastern skyline, East Central Box Hill is a modern-day sanctuary and exclusive lifestyle destination. This luxurious indoor pool has been designed as a contemporary lifestyle statement that beautifully complements the building's overall style, which draws inspiration from Melbourne's vibrant culture and urban landscape. <figure><img src="https://media.alohapools.com.au/assets/main/230109_Aloha_Pools-0957-HDR.jpg" data-image="18938"></figure>
 When the original pool design failed to meet the visual aspirations of the developer and architect, our team of pool builders, engineers, and designers were brought on board by the builder to rethink the design to achieve the marketing and architectural aspirations. 



The architectural design brief was brought to life by our team with a new way of thinking and innovative construction solutions. Various material elements, such as the glass mosaic tiles, were selected to fulfil the architects' vision of creating a luxurious, sophisticated space that brings the outside in. <figure><img src="https://media.alohapools.com.au/assets/main/230109_Aloha_Pools-0975-HDR-Pano.jpg" data-image="18939"></figure>

Our team of construction professionals worked collaboratively with the builder to ensure every phase of the construction process was considered and effectively managed to perfect the balance between form and function. 
 
An additional challenge was the need for more space allocated for the pool equipment and heating facilities due to a shared office and private apartment directly underneath the swimming pool. Our engineers and pool builders utilised innovative thinking and strategic approaches to mitigate this issue. <figure><img src="https://media.alohapools.com.au/assets/main/230109_Aloha_Pools-0994-HDR-Pano.jpg" data-image="18937"></figure>


The design brief consisted of significant budget challenges, which were overcome with intelligent design solutions presented by our team at Aloha Pools. These solutions ranged from aesthetic solutions to filtration systems, smart temperature controls, and lighting solutions. 

An outstanding design element of this pool is the large wall clock made of brushed metal that beautifully contrasts against the turquoise blue of the glass mosaic tiles. <figure><img src="https://media.alohapools.com.au/assets/main/230109_Aloha_Pools-0837.jpg" data-image="18935"></figure>

The materiality utilised of glass mosaic tiles was chosen to suit the water's reﬂective nature and promote the dramatic interaction between the pool and the flanking garden-scape bringing the outside in.

Reaching new heights with sophisticated bold lines

Designed with raw materials that delightfully interplay with the natural beauty of its surroundings, this 13m x 3m luxury pool, combined with a 3m x 2m spa, delivers a seamless indoor–outdoor living experience for this stunning private residence on Brighton's golden mile beach. 
Created with an acrylic viewing panel the same width as the house's entrance hall, it provides a clear view of the pool from the moment you enter the house, making it a standout feature of the overall home design. 
<figure><img src="https://media.alohapools.com.au/assets/main/221219_Aloha_Pools-0660.jpg" data-image="18912"></figure>
 Built 1200m above ground, the walls of this wet-edge pool eliminate the need for a pool fence and allow for uninterrupted views. The pool's interior is fully tiled with light blue ceramic mosaic pool tiles creating an attractive watercolour. 
To address the challenges raised by the pool's proximity to the house and basement, out team of expert pool builders built the pool on piers and constructed it before the basement, which required meticulous precision and quality craftsmanship. 
<figure><img src="https://media.alohapools.com.au/assets/main/221219_Aloha_Pools-0786.jpg" data-image="18913"></figure>
With the wet wall being continuous across the pool and spa, the water level of both had to be the same. To achieve this, the pool's interior was constructed with a hidden gutter system to the pool/spa wall. 
<figure><img src="https://media.alohapools.com.au/assets/main/221219_Aloha_Pools-0565-HDR.jpg" data-image="18914"></figure>
Access to the pool is via a path behind the raised end wall, which ensures that the gate and the pool fence cannot be seen from the house. The path leads to stairs that provide access to the rear pool deck area. With careful planning, the deck did not require a balustrade and coupled with the pergola; they've added a significant visual appeal to the overall poolscape.

A visionary wet-edge pool in Brighton Beach

Club Rathdowne is an impressive architecturally designed state-of-the-art facility with first-class conveniences, which aims to improve urban vitality and promote well-being and community for its residents within a freshly minted suburb. 

This luxury pool has been designed to include an 11m x 7m splash pad with ground jets and a tipping bucket supplied by RainDeck Equipment. These features aligned with the developers' vision for elements of play within the club facility. <figure><img src="https://media.alohapools.com.au/assets/main/221206_Aloha_Pools-0246-HDR.jpg" data-image="18890"></figure>
 
The swimming pool utilises heat pumps and covers for year-round heating to 28* by Sunbather Solar and features a DDA-compliant pool lift. Its interior has a tiled lap lane to cater for the avid swimmer, while still catering for all abilities.<figure><img src="https://media.alohapools.com.au/assets/main/221206_Aloha_Pools-0225-HDR-Pano.jpg" data-image="18889"></figure>

Our team of pool builders utilised innovative construction methods as the swimming pool was built on heavily reactive soil and a perched water table, which required the pool's excavation to undergo dewatering and shoring throughout the initial construction process. 

The quality of workmanship is evident in the construction methodology of the pool's engineering and installation. Our engineers and designers took additional steps to reduce the risk of structural movement, surface cracking, and delamination of finishes. 
<figure><img src="https://media.alohapools.com.au/assets/main/221206_Aloha_Pools-0392.jpg" data-image="18891"></figure>
This luxury pool and associated splash pad take prior learnings from civic waterplay structures and aquatic facilities and delivers a new hub focused on health, wellness, and interaction. The facility's unique design uses rooftop solar panels to generate energy across the community site. 

A multi-faceted space designed for leisure, play and well-being, Rathdowne's Residents' Club beautifully fosters an environment of inclusivity, family play, exercise, and recreation. <figure><img src="https://media.alohapools.com.au/assets/main/221206_Aloha_Pools-0168-HDR.jpg" data-image="18888"></figure>

An embodiment of community and lifestyle

Located in Melbourne's semi-rural east, this luxury resort-style pool, pond and spa of unapologetic proportions was built with modern grandeur in mind. Wrapping itself alongside the house, this luxury pool features a large acrylic viewing panel and an impressive overflow edge, which cascades into a backdrop of boundless native forestry. <figure><img src="https://media.alohapools.com.au/assets/main/230112_Aloha_Pools-1167-copy.jpg" data-image="18864"></figure>

The expansive suspended concrete paving area is segmented into different entertaining zones interlinked through stepping stones leading to a separate spa, sunken fire pit, and acrylic viewing panel. 

The sheer magnitude of this luxury pool required a great deal of thought, planning and detailed drawings from our team of expert pool builders. Using a hydraulic and filtration system similar in size to one used on a commercial project and introducing a spillover "knife edge" were considered design factors to minimise heat loss and water reduction of the pool. 
<figure><img src="https://media.alohapools.com.au/assets/main/230116_Aloha_Pools-1482-transformed.jpg" data-image="18863"></figure>
Due to the highly complex nature of this luxury pool, our team of pool builders, engineers, and designers ensured the hydraulic pipework interacted with the swimming pool structure and that the placement and configuration of the swimming pool in-floor system didn't compromise the pool's structural integrity. 
<figure><img src="https://media.alohapools.com.au/assets/main/230112_Aloha_Pools-1164-copy.jpg" data-image="18865"></figure>
Through a selection of materials that capture its surrounds, commercial grade equipment and water management, this luxury pool is atheistically beautiful with its fine grain details without compromising functionality, safety and long-term durability.<figure><img src="https://media.alohapools.com.au/assets/main/230112_Aloha_Pools-1122-copy.jpg" data-image="18866"></figure>

A slice of paradise in Melbourne's East

Situated on a stunning cliff-top property with panoramic bay views, this luxury pool harmoniously blends in with the design of the home - an architectural masterpiece. The pool mirrors the same exploration into the unknown that the home, constructed of copper with an entirely stainless steel roof, embodies. 
A considerable amount of technical input and consultation was required from our team of designers, engineers and tradesmen to deliver an impressive design that would be buildable. 
<figure><img src="https://media.alohapools.com.au/assets/main/01_Artform_HR.jpg" data-image="17478"></figure>
An innovative construction method our team of expert pool builders utilised to construct this above-ground luxury pool was the cantilevered end section of the pool, which is suspended above the ground. A commercial-grade formwork was used with a two-coat membrane system applied to the interior of the pool and spa, ensuring no water could leak through the concrete shell. 
The usual design of this luxury pool required the spa's walls to be splayed to form an oblique angle to the main flat surfaces, with varying thickness to create an optical illusion of size and shape.
<figure><img src="https://media.alohapools.com.au/assets/main/03_Artform_HR.jpg" data-image="17492"></figure>
The pool's interior is tiled with white Bisazza glass mosaic tiles that give the pool its crisp blue water colour, which beautifully contrasts with the home's darker styling. 
The architecturally designed home and luxury pool demonstrate the excellent craftsmanship and expertise utilised to deliver what can best be described as a work of art.

Sharp lines and angles create a work of art

Beautiful in its simplicity, this luxury pool, with its large format travertine tiles and natural stone wet edge, injects an element of grandeur into this oceanside home. 
Set within a poolscape of spaces, which exude a sense of seclusion, comfort and relaxation, this architecturally designed pool is understated elegance at its best.
<figure><img src="https://media.alohapools.com.au/assets/main/01_Gellibrand_HR.jpg" data-image="17360"></figure>
 A key feature of this luxury pool, which our team of expert pool builders incorporated, was the stepping stones that serve as a bridge between the pool and spa. 
This considered detail makes the best use of the space available by allowing for a maximum-sized pool and creating two distinct zones between the pool and spa that strategically interact with the pool house. 
<figure><img src="https://media.alohapools.com.au/assets/main/02_Gellibrand_HR.jpg" data-image="17366"></figure>
The use of a consistent wet deck ensured the water levels for the pool and spa were precisely the same. Using a hidden gutter system created a seamless transition from the pavement to the pool. These innovative approaches adopted by our team of designers, engineers, and tradesman testifies to their craftsmanship and unparalleled understanding of the importance of precision and quality.

Designed with a full-length spillover to create the illusion of an endless horizon, the pool is best appreciated from the third-level open-plan living space with views overlooking inner city Melbourne.



Although not part of the original design, a decision by the client to leave sections of the wall exposed seamlessly fits with the industrial feel of the overall property. <figure><img src="https://media.alohapools.com.au/assets/main/200303_Aloha_Pools-1252-HDR_1.JPG" data-image="16707"></figure>
The pool was built offsite by our team of expert pool builders, sits on an engineered steel frame fixed to the home and runs the length of the property to allow for access to the garage at the back of the warehouse conversion.<figure><img src="https://media.alohapools.com.au/assets/main/200303_Aloha_Pools-1268_1.JPG" data-image="16712"></figure>
Despite the challenges encountered with the pool installation, ranging from logistics in traffic management to restricted laneway access for a 100-tonne crane, our team at Aloha Pools met all the critical construction success factors. <figure><img src="https://media.alohapools.com.au/assets/main/200303_Aloha_Pools-1309_1.JPG" data-image="16717"></figure>

Dubbed the "Super Pool" due to its substantial length for a residential project, this luxury pool has been designed to seamlessly blend into the home's modern architecture and the surrounding bushland.
<figure><img src="https://media.alohapools.com.au/assets/main/220207_Aloha-0720.JPG" data-image="15956"></figure>
At 25 meters long, this simple yet beautiful pool and spa are strategically positioned on the same level as the architecturally designed home to provide an end-to-end bird's eye view of the glistening waters across the expanse of the house. 
<figure><img src="https://media.alohapools.com.au/assets/main/220207_Aloha-1051.JPG" data-image="15961"></figure>
To accommodate the sheer length of the pool, our team of expert pool builders installed a construction joint through the centre of the pool. 

Expert craftsmanship and precision were required as this luxury pool sits on a foundation system above ground with the equipment located under the terrace. An in-floor cleaning system was essential due to the surrounding large trees.

A residential lap pool that breaks the mould

Located on the 5th floor of the first Hyatt Centric hotel in Australia, this moody terrazzo-clad pool exudes a retro nineties bohemian feel with a European appeal, targeted at young and savvy business and leisure travellers. 
The design of this luxury 25-meter indoor pool beautifully complements the hotel's overall style that draws inspiration from Melbourne's vibrant culture and urban landscape.
<figure><img src="https://media.alohapools.com.au/assets/main/220210_Aloha-1351.JPG" data-image="15911"></figure>
 A considered detail our team of expert pool builders utilised was fibre optic lighting that provides excellent illumination without emitting any form of heat. This luxury pool was also designed with sound isolation and a curved spillover at one end to promote good water health and wave-free swimming.

Sustainable energy-saving practices were incorporated, which reduced the overall running costs, as heating for the pool was via a heat pump and UV sanitisation located in the plant room on the level below. 

This luxury pool, surrounded by lounges partially hidden behind pillars, with a low-lying ceiling to create a cosy, subterranean and private feel, is unequivocally the stylish centrepiece of this lifestyle hotel.<figure><img src="https://media.alohapools.com.au/assets/main/220210_Aloha-1367.JPG" data-image="15913"></figure>

Lifestyle luxury within an Australian first hotel

An embodiment of contemporary architectural style, this award-winning courtyard plunge pool was part of a significant renovation to an existing heritage-listed home. 
Beautifully crafted with black Zimbabwean stone and surrounded by lush greenery and bespoke sculptures, the visual impact of the bold reflective surface of this luxury pool is nothing short of spectacular.
<figure><img src="https://media.alohapools.com.au/assets/main/210430_Aloha_Pools-1561-HDR.JPG" data-image="15853"></figure>
Our in-house team of expert pool builders successfully renovated the existing pool structure by removing the concrete slab at the pool's edge and designing an overflow edge with custom stone grating to the revamped pool's perimeter. A wall was built across the shallow end of the pool to provide a balance tank for the wet edge and was raised on two sides of the pool to bring the garden to the pool's edge. 
<figure><img src="https://media.alohapools.com.au/assets/main/210430_Aloha_Pools-1448-HDR.JPG" data-image="15839"></figure>
Despite the challenges from the existing pool structure and paving levels, our team of experts strategically addressed these issues with quality craftsmanship to deliver a contemporary design that maximised the courtyard space.

Take a plunge into a sophisticated oasis

Set against a façade of crystalline granite that bestows a sense of weightlessness upon the monolithic form, the negative edge design of this luxury pool creates the illusion of water disappearing into subterranean rock. 
<figure><img src="https://media.alohapools.com.au/assets/main/BE_Hampden_Rd_0464-2-copy.jpg" data-image="15728"></figure>
Masterfully crafted with black ceramic tiles and bluestone steps by our team of expert pool builders, it gives the appearance of a rock pool when the sunlight refracts across the property's textured exterior.
A small Juliet balcony, built with a slab of granite stone used to clad the façade, pushes out from the living space to cantilever over the pool, providing a bird's eye view over the expanse of water.

With clean minimal lines that celebrate a bold and refined pool typology, this beautifully crafted pool adds to the etherealness of the home and serves as a purposeful destination point for the rear section of the property. 
Surrounded by low-maintenance gardens and overlooked by the living room and courtyard, taking a dip in this luxury pool will further the feeling of being secluded in nature in the face of an inner city locality.

Stunning lake views  from a sunset pool

Warm and welcoming, Home Southbank's luxury pool has been designed as a relaxing urban sanctuary with elements of the building's industrial charm elegantly woven through. 
Built with brutalist off-form concrete and contrasting large-format soft porcelain tiles, the custom detailing of this luxury pool is rich with texture as it combines brushed and natural finishes to create a sophisticated yet laid-back space. 
<figure><img src="https://media.alohapools.com.au/assets/main/220524_Aloha_Pools-0033-HDR.JPG" data-image="15603"></figure>
With abundant natural light and breathtaking city views, the pool's modern architecture is beautifully contrasted with the sunken winter gardens. The gardens illuminating greenery, which reflects off the pool and the beams of sunlight breathe life to the developer's vision of bringing the outside in. 
<figure><img src="https://media.alohapools.com.au/assets/main/220524_Aloha_Pools-0117-HDR.JPG" data-image="15606"></figure>
By paying attention to the finer details, our team of expert pool builders overcame the complexities of the pools host structure not being in line with lateral restraint requirements by exploring alternative designs to rectify the issue.
As luxury pool builders, our team at Aloha Pools successfully met the challenges and changing conditions to achieve quality workmanship, safety and reduction in wastage of resources - critical success factors for all our construction projects.

An urban sanctuary with an industrial twist

A Melbourne interpretation of Peter Zumthor's iconic spa at Vals in the Swiss Alps, this luxury pool is an artistic expression of materiality and time with classical references and modern sensibilities.
Masterfully crafted with large format basalt pavers that extend onto the interior wall, this enclosed swimming pool is the basement centrepiece of St. Vincents Place, a modern renaissance home. The rich textures and hand-hewn characters of the pool hall strongly accentuate the simplicity and nuanced layers derived from this statement pool. 
<figure><img src="https://media.alohapools.com.au/assets/main/BE_stVincents29794_2022-11-23-074052_ysbk.JPG" data-image="15503"></figure>
A striking element of this pool is the water feature that was designed in collaboration with BE Architects. To meet the challenge associated with the water volume being significant enough without becoming a noise issue, our team strategically utilised a set of internal baffles and diffusers to restrict the internal rotation of the water discharging from the spout. The build of this luxury pool employed sustainable practices with the installation of, · solar vacuum tubes on the roof collect hot water, which is stored in huge underground tanks to minimise the use of gas to heat the pool: · extruded polystyrene to the pool's floor and walls to reduce energy and heat consumption.<figure><img src="https://media.alohapools.com.au/assets/main/BE_stVincents29980_2022-11-27-234249_phks.jpg" data-image="15598"></figure>

Our team of expert pool builders designed the pool with a negative edge slot drain with integrated balance tanks to give the water the appearance of welling up and disappearing into the subterranean rock.
This luxury pool was poured in two parts to retain the structural integrity of the pool's floor and walls and to provide stability to the upper levels of the house.
<figure><img src="https://media.alohapools.com.au/assets/main/BE_stVincents30017_1_Fnl_retouch_2022-11-27-233846_fdwp.jpg" data-image="15591"></figure>

A contemporary centrepiece behind a heritage façade

Designed to create a reflective feature from every angle of the house, this luxury pool seamlessly blends into this architectural masterpiece of a home. 
The pool's external walls were intelligently designed as barriers to eliminate the need for a pool fence, allowing for uninterrupted views of the stunning landscape from various vantage points of the house. 
<figure><img src="https://media.alohapools.com.au/assets/main/220204_Aloha-0132.JPG" data-image="15470"></figure>
This elevated 360-degree wet-edge pool utilises multiple types of wet edge, including one strategically hidden under the deck, to achieve the desired visual impact to create a reflective body of water. 
To counteract any potential issues associated with the reactive soils fluctuating moisture and stability, our team of expert pool builders built the project in two stages: pouring the balance tank and foundation footings before spraying the pool. 
<figure><img src="https://media.alohapools.com.au/assets/main/220204_Aloha-0226.JPG" data-image="15458"></figure>
Additionally, our design team utilised stones and fibreglass-reinforced plastic (FRP) grating to innovatively conceal the gutters. 
This stunning above-ground luxury pool set within a breathtaking landscape, embodies the craftsmanship and expertise that has become synonymous with our team at Aloha Pools of builders, designers and engineers.

A reflective masterpiece for the ages

<figure><img src="https://media.alohapools.com.au/assets/main/230119_Aloha_Pools-1921.jpg" data-image="20392" alt="Myrtha Pools"></figure>
A unique approach was employed for this Learn to Swim Facility situated in Melbourne's Outer East. Utilising Myrtha Pools technology, a 25 by 7-meter pool was crafted in Italy and subsequently installed on-site with impeccable precision, culminating in the creation of an exceptional facility within an impressively short timeframe.
The client's aspiration was to establish a customised learn-to-swim facility in the outer reaches of Melbourne's East, and they engaged us for preliminary concepts and cost estimations. Various alternatives were explored, taking into account the distinct requirements of the pool as well as predefined design visions for the facility. Swiftly, the determination was made that the swimming pool would be made as a prefabricated, stainless steel structure to be assembled on-site, with invaluable assistance from Myrtha Pools.
<figure><img src="https://media.alohapools.com.au/assets/main/230119_Aloha_Pools-1912.jpg" data-image="20394" alt="Myrtha Pools Swim School"></figure>
Our team was responsible for the design of the swimming pool, which was subsequently manufactured in Italy and then meticulously assembled under local supervision. This strategic choice was rooted in the necessity of adhering to project timelines. The nature of the swimming pool construction, and how it harmonised with the project's schedule, necessitated that the swimming pool tank be conceived, engineered, and dispatched for installation while the primary facility construction was already underway. The construction of the principal facility, including pool excavation, foundational slabs, pavement, and pool equipment, was substantially completed prior to the introduction of the Myrtha pool system.
The principal challenge lay in the unwavering precision demanded by the pool's designs and the corresponding building structure. The swimming pool was essentially pieced together within a pre-established framework. The intricacies of managing associated building activities introduced the primary complexity to the project, encompassing coordination of architectural facets, civil engineering endeavours, and electrical systems.<figure><img src="https://media.alohapools.com.au/assets/main/230119_Aloha_Pools-1980.jpg" data-image="20400" alt="Myrtha Pools Swim School 2"></figure>
The innovative strategy undertaken for the Learn to Swim Facility in Melbourne's Outer East epitomises the fusion of cutting-edge technology, creative foresight, and intricate execution. The pool's construction journey, involving Myrtha Pools technology and seamless coordination, stands as a testament to the possibilities that emerge when vision and expertise unite. The facility's realisation transcends mere aquatic infrastructure, underscoring the power of innovation in reshaping physical spaces to align with aspirations.

A black beauty set amongst the vines within a boutique hotel

A recent recipient of the SPASA Gold award, the build of this iconic pool suspended over the main entryway of this ultra-modern home required creative design, engineering and planning. 
Built with an acrylic viewing bottom, which provides abundant natural light, this luxury pool creates an incredible visual impact as you enter the home. 
<figure><img src="https://media.alohapools.com.au/assets/main/210407_Aloha_Pools-1387-HDR.JPG" data-image="15364"></figure>
As a result of the pool and spa construction occurring before the surrounding house, extensive planning from our team of expert pool builders was required to ensure the layout and levels were precise. The tiniest difference would have caused the surrounding window levels to differ from the pool's finished level. 
Tiled with imported Italian marble, this luxury pool has been installed with large slabs of stone as rebated walls to cleverly hide the waterline. 
Due to the location of the pool on the first floor of this multi-level home, a raised pool wall, which required significant formwork design and concrete pour sequence methodology, was constructed to achieve this striking design statement.
<figure><img src="https://media.alohapools.com.au/assets/main/210407_Aloha_Pools-1216-HDR-Pano.JPG" data-image="15369"></figure>
This luxury pool and spa have been built with a fully automated and remote-functioning iAquaLink control system, allowing the homeowners to manage their heating and cleaning systems remotely via their smart devices.
During the warmer months, the solar heating system heats the pool using the sun's natural energy, with a backup gas heater and 100% solar coverage to maximise the heating system for all-year-round use.

A statement pool where simplicity is key

<figure><img src="https://media.alohapools.com.au/assets/main/210310_Aloha_Pools-0428.JPG" data-image="15250" alt="Martha House"></figure>
As luxury pool builders, the Aloha Pool’s team relied on clever design and workmanship to deliver this purposeful and visually charming pool, which is free of embellishments. 
The pool was built as three-sided wet-edge construction sitting 1.3 meters above the ground to meet the relevant safety requirements and ensure compliance with Australian standards. With this clever design, the face of the pool acts as the required safety barrier.
<figure><img src="https://media.alohapools.com.au/assets/main/210310_Aloha_Pools-0342-HDR.JPG" data-image="15256"></figure>
Before the pool construction commenced, the hydraulics were vital due to the distance between the pool's heating functions and the equipment area. Flow and return pipes had to be correctly sized, run, thermally insulated and isolated in a custom-made stainless-steel culvert with several other services running in the same trench. 
The spa was uniquely constructed with a three-sided spill-over, allowing the water level for the pool and spa to be the same. A single plane of water, an innovative solution our design team incorporated, achieved the perfect integration between the pool and spa.
<figure><img src="https://media.alohapools.com.au/assets/main/210310_Aloha_Pools-0230-HDR.JPG" data-image="15246"></figure>
With uninterrupted views of the pool from multiple large living spaces and directly out to Port Phillip Bay, this luxury pool is the epitome of simplicity at its best and designed with enjoyment in mind.

Aloha Pools 55 year history spanning over 3 generations

Anchored between two buildings like a makeshift bridge and surrounded by lush gardens, Hawthorn Park is Melbourne’s first sky pool. Built with a glass bottom, the visual impact this pool creates from six stories below can best be described as a breathtaking experience. 
<figure><img src="https://media.alohapools.com.au/assets/main/210331_Aloha_Pools-1120-HDR.jpg" data-image="14744"></figure>
However, the design and construction of this fully suspended pool, had complications and challenges. 
When the original pool design failed to meet the visual aspirations of the developer and architect, our Commercial Pool Consulting (CPC) team was brought on board to rethink the design, engineering, and construction methodology. Our team set out to bring the architectural design brief to life with a new way of thinking and innovative construction solutions. 
<figure><img src="https://media.alohapools.com.au/assets/main/210331_Aloha_Pools-1117.jpg" data-image="14749"></figure>
Working collaboratively with the builder, we opted to forgo concrete for a hybrid, lightweight steel superstructure that utilised a custom-designed Myrtha Pool system. 
The stainless-steel frame was made in Italy, shipped to Australia in two parts, assembled on the ground and winched into place by two cranes. It was designed with six bridge bearers, which allow the structure to move independently of the two connecting buildings.
<figure><img src="https://media.alohapools.com.au/assets/main/210331_Aloha_Pools-1030.jpg" data-image="14754"></figure>
Large acrylic viewing panels were used to construct the pool’s walls and floor, creating a truly immersive user experience when swimming in the pool. 
Other construction challenges that were successfully dealt with included: 
· Acoustic isolation to eliminate noise in the apartments below · Lateral restraints engineered to deal with earthquakes · The expected deflection of the supporting beams under a load of water · Wind engineering & loads were studied to ensure the pool's structure could withstand high wind events to prevent the pool from turning into a waterfall · A fail-proof system for the sealing and monitoring of the pool window panels · The integrity of the water-proofing liner had to be uncompromised <figure><img src="https://media.alohapools.com.au/assets/main/210331_Aloha_Pools-1033.jpg" data-image="14763"></figure>
Once the design challenges had been met by our CPC team, we went on to deliver the physical construction of this amazing spanning structure on time and within budget. With the city skyline as its backdrop, the total structure of this iconic award-winning pool includes an 82,000L, 25m lap pool and a 75,000L, 35m-long family pool.
Hawthorn Park’s sky pool is truly an engineering feat, utilising innovative methods and materials to bring the client’s visual aspirations to life.

And that’s a wrap for an amazing award season for 2022

Set in a steeply sloping green landscape and offering breathtaking ocean views, this luxury pool creates the experience of an endless horizon with its wet edge that overlooks the bay.
Located on a cliff edge on the Mornington Peninsula, the pool was designed with architectural elements to give it the appearance of floating above the terrain and hoovering over the grass.
<figure><img src="https://media.alohapools.com.au/assets/main/220204_Aloha-0688.JPG" data-image="15005"></figure>
Expert craftsmanship and innovative construction methods were required to deliver this cantilevered edge, fully suspended luxury pool - a design that isn't common in domestic level pools. Despite the cantilever aspect adding a layer of complexity with the additional steel requirement, the structure allowed for a seamless transition from the house to the pool. 
The design incorporated three different styles of negative edge - one under the deck, one into a hidden gutter, and one into an open gutter, highlighting the level of accuracy and knowledge required from our team for this iconic pool.<figure><img src="https://media.alohapools.com.au/assets/main/220204_Aloha-0637.JPG" data-image="15084"></figure>

To keep the surroundings tranquil the pipework was sound insulated, and the pool filter box soundproof. The equipment, located under the deck, was acoustically isolated to keep the deck area free from noise disturbances.

A beautifully crafted luxury pool, Erskine is a sculptural masterpiece that effortlessly assimilates into its surrounding natural environment.

We are pleased to present Sussex Residence, a recent luxury pool project by Aloha Pools
in the beautiful Brighton Melbourne. Sussex Residence celebrates its raw and unfinished expression through contrast, cohesively connecting the indoor-outdoor aesthetic. The hues of the exposed concrete natural stone, bluestone and porcelain all drink in the natural light and connect the home to its context. Water movement surrounds the entire 3-level house with the incorporation of a cascading waterfall feature, integrating a fluid connection of spaces with light and shadow play. Unique features include a 4 meter spill over, a hidden integrated balance tank, a pond with stepping stones through to the negative edge spa.

A beautiful pool is one thing, but at Aloha, we go beyond the photo. At Aloha Pools we strive to perfect the balance between form and function on each of our projects. The aesthetics of the form must be supported by precision details in function. Achieving this balance involves understanding every single element of the craft. Our team gives full consideration to every project so that no element is overlooked. And by using tried and tested methods learned over decades, we can assure you of a quality that will not fade.

Sussex Residence; A bold, contemporary form imbued with a sense of timelessness.

We are pleased to present Yarra One, a recent project by Aloha Pools in the lovely South Yarra, Melbourne. The product of a partnership between EcoWorld International and Fender Katsalidis. The Ground floor open-air plaza roof is framed by a timber clad lattice style structure with integrated planter beds and will be housed as the community space and commercial lobby with public amenities, thoughtfully designed to deliver.<figure><img src="https://media.alohapools.com.au/assets/main/Blog/YarraOne/210316_Aloha_Pools-0694.jpg" data-image="13633" alt="Yarra One"></figure>
Conveniently located just a short walk from South Yarra Station, residents will benefit from easy access to an abundance of cafes, health & well-being, dining and retail offerings along Chapel Street and Toorak Roads.
Comprising 268 apartments spread across 27 floors, this dynamic high-rise has been designed to maximise panoramic views towards the city. Yarra One combines rectilinear forms and curves to create a unique architectural expression on the South Yarra skyline. A covered public plaza will connect Claremont street to Daly street, and will feature greenery and a three-level co-working space.<figure><img src="https://media.alohapools.com.au/assets/main/Blog/YarraOne/210316_Aloha_Pools-0780.jpg" data-image="13636" alt="Yarra One"></figure>
Aloha Pools was commissioned to create a unique space for residence to escape the bustling South Yarra precinct and enjoy a tranquil spa retreat. The spa is the first overflowing prefab rim spa. Its absolute geometrics give it a sculptured look and its’ hollowed base makes it look like a shape suspended in space. The spas are fitted with a circular bench for up to 6 people creating an area for relaxing and regeneration. Hydromassage, hydrocolour with underwater LED lighting creates a total wellbeing for the senses.<figure><img src="https://media.alohapools.com.au/assets/main/Blog/YarraOne/210316_Aloha_Pools-0798.jpg" data-image="13638" alt="Yarra One"></figure>
