When you are designing a custom pool and spa, water features are your chance to get truly creative. They are incredibly customizable, so you can create something that complements any backyard, from classic to contemporary. At Pools by Design, we love turning a client’s unique dream spa into reality, from traditional waterfalls to intricate fountains. Here are your main options for spa water features.

Waterfalls

Waterfalls are a common choice for pools and spas because they look luxurious while staying classic. They are a great option if you want something fun that still feels timeless, and a waterfall that starts at the side of your hot tub and continues into your pool helps connect the two bodies of water and tie the backyard together.

Rain curtains

Rain curtains are broad, thin streams of water that can fall from a decorative wall into your hot tub or from the side of your spa into your pool. Like waterfalls, they are popular because they are elegant without being extravagant, and a simple rain curtain gives your custom backyard a real sense of luxury.

Spillover spa

Waterfalls and rain curtains are two ways to connect your pool and spa, but they are not the only ones. You can also use a stone design to let water spill gradually from your hot tub into your pool, which is very relaxing to watch. For a dramatic effect, an infinity spa works like an infinity pool, with water spilling over the edge so it appears to go on forever.

Jets

Jets are not always visible on the surface, but they do the most to improve your actual spa experience. You can include as many as you like along the walls of the jacuzzi, and these massaging jets make you feel like you are at a resort or luxury spa in the comfort of your own backyard.

Fountains

Fountains let you get creative, from a simple fountain in the middle of your hot tub to shooting water that arcs from your spa into your pool. Whatever you picture, we can help you create it, tuning the sound, movement, and scale to your spa.
