Winning Pool the Year is not just about aesthetics (though of course that's one of the key considerations). Other factors that are considered include innovative pool design, usability, materials, landscaping, and cohesiveness. So let's round up this year's Pool of the Year winners – and what makes them so special.

Once they realised they could customise every part of their pool with Mayfair, they quickly requested design features that would make this pool ideal for every family members’ needs.

It was an exciting evening for the Mayfair team at this year’s SPASA Awards of Excellence – the Swimming Pool and Spa Association of New Zealand and Australia – with seven of our agents across NZ being recognised for exceptional design and builds.
