Pump Up Your Pool Time This Summer
There is something about the summer air and the longer days for us all to enjoy the outdoors. Pool time is a must to take a break from the heat of the day, especially if you live in Texas. Maybe you have a pool already and are looking to add amenities that will take it up a notch, or perhaps you are planning to add a new pool for your new and improved backyard destination. We’ve compiled our favorite pool options and features that can help pump up your pool time this summer.
1. Running Streams and Floating Steps
Minor additions can make a significant difference when it comes to the aesthetic of your backyard oasis. The waterfall cascading from the upper deck of this pool, paired with the deep blue tile backdrop, provides that extra level of luxury in this backyard escape. The floating steps not only break up the path to the pool and the rest of the backyard but they also provide multiple entry points to the main pool or the hot tub. Having both pools of water at the same level allows everyone to enjoy and feel included, no matter where they decide to float.
2. A Little Bubbly
As seen in Houzz, bubblers can be a spa-like surprise when used in moderation. A couple of bubblers are featured at the edge of this Dallas pool to add a focal point while also aerating the water. These enhancements create just enough movement to make the aqua landscape interesting without overwhelming the rest of the pool.
3. Lounge Decks
Lounge decks are perfect for those sunny days where you want to catch some rays but don’t want to venture too far from the coolness of the water’s edge. Just enough submersion and the breeze off the water are sure to make this the best seat in the house. These ledges also offer the perfect place to enjoy a cocktail, play with your pup, keep a close eye on little ones, or help those with limited mobility enjoy their day at the pool too.
4. Plenty of Outdoor Seating
To make the most of your pool time, make sure that everyone has a place to relax and enjoy the view. Areas for entertaining and dining will be greatly appreciated by those who want to be a part of the action without getting all wet. Soft furnishings for large seating areas equipped with outdoor fabrics will make sure everyone feels comfortable and welcome. Mingling those guests in the pool with those in the outdoor bar area will even add that extra vacation vibe for pool-goers to swim up and partake in the fare.
