This popular size provides environmentally friendly alternatives to high-maintenance traditional pools. These new cocktail pools have quickly become one of the fastest-growing trends in compact pool installations.
Cocktail Pool 101
As mentioned above, some common terms for cocktail pools are plunge pools, or splash pools. If your pool includes a spa, it is often called a spool (for the combination of both a spa and pool). In essence these are basically scaled-down swimming pools, designed to have many of the benefits of a larger pool, but in a smaller size. If you choose the spool style, you can add elements of a spa or hot tub (such as seating, jets, and heaters).
With any cocktail pool you can add your own customization and flair with water features. These include custom lighting, waterfalls and more! The adaptability of a cocktail pool makes it as versatile as the average pool, allowing you to cool off, warm up, or just enjoy a “Lifestyle Pool” with friends.
Benefits of a Cocktail Pool
A cocktail pool provides many benefits for pool owners looking for a water retreat and entertainment space. A cocktail pool:
- Requires minimal space
- Is perfect for urban areas where small yards are the norm
- Costs less to heat than a conventional pool
- Takes less time to maintain than a conventional pool
- Has lower maintenance costs (water, chemicals, etc.)
- Can be heated like a hot tub and used in the early spring or late fall (and year ‘round in some climates)
So if you are looking for a delightful combination of size, affordability, and luxury in a small space, Pool models from Lifestyle Pools will fit your needs!
