A pool-and-spa combination on the Bellarine

John and Carole Wood wanted a backyard on their St Leonards property that worked for both relaxation and a proper swim — somewhere to unwind at the end of the day and to enjoy the Bellarine summers.

We recommended the Compass Sanctuary 7.0 Narrow, paired with an X-Trainer spa as a pool-and-spa combination. The Sanctuary range is designed with a full-length bench and steps, giving ample space to take a dip while still leaving room to relax — and the narrow footprint suits the site perfectly.

For colour, the Woods chose Viridian Bi-luminite™ — a deep, jewel-like green that gives the water real character and depth, set off beautifully by the surrounding landscaping.

Pairing the pool with a spa means the Woods get the best of both: a spa to relax in year-round, and a pool for swimming and entertaining through the warmer months. Like almost every Compass pool we build, it runs on the Vantage self-cleaning system and is built on a tough ceramic core with a lifetime structural warranty.
