A long-time dream for these Taupō residents was to create a beautiful and unique hub for outdoor play and entertaining – a unique space they could be proud of where friends and neighbourhood kids were always welcome. And that’s just what was delivered, a dream sanctuary for all.

Owning a pool was a long-time dream of these Taupō residents. With a young family, they wished to create a hub for outdoor play and entertaining – where friends and neighbourhood kids were always welcome. It was also important to them to create something unique and of a really high standard, not just a rectangle pool in the ground. Something that created the sense of having a resort at home, with different areas in the pool for all to enjoy.

Lots of tricky angles in their outdoor area meant the design of the pool had to be just so in order to complement the lines of the house. The client's eczema was also something to consider when it came to choosing a pool water filtration system.

The final result is a pool that flows elegantly off the master bedroom and connects the lounge with the new deck. The pool build incorporates a deep end for bombs and diving, and swim up steps for baby to play in the shallows. A Naked Freshwater system was recommended as the best choice for the client's eczema – and they love it. The system is also working for them environmentally, as it is set up for their freshwater outfall to flow out across their orchard as irrigation.

What the client is saying…

"Massive thanks to Anna, Reg and the team for the working with us on this project.

We knew we wanted something unique and of a really high standard – not just a rectangle pool and a fence!

We are so pleased we chose to work with Mayfair pools - nothing was a problem and you catered for all of our needs especially when it came to the detail. Reg took a lot of time to listen to what we wanted and explain the technical side of what was possible. Any issues were quickly resolved.

From a lifestyle point of view we feel so lucky as its like having a resort at home, we can spend wonderful family time out there and don’t need to go out as much which is great with two older boys and a wee baby. We recently had a big family group visit and it makes so much difference to have the pool and spa pool area for us all to enjoy. Aesthetically it has put our design stamp on the house.

Thanks so much for your patience and attention to detail that has helped us achieve our dream sanctuary for our family.”
