    Casas got my vote I could visualize beautiful comfortable pieces surrounding this pool with several lovely tables and umbrellas . Its lacking one thing an outside kitchen would have been nice thrown into the mix. Might be there just can see it.. Love the color of the house and trim as well Beautiful our style of house. If I was to choose a 2nd it would be Santa M, this space has some really nice amenities around the pool. A great place to hang out and relax with the right outside furnishings. I guess since none of these places were decorated in anyway it is up to the eyes of the beholder to get the mind juices going and make the areas more welcoming .

    I can't vote this time. I looked and looked and there wasn't one pool that looked enticing. None of them looked like they were ever used and only the second one looked like it remotely worked with the architecture of the house.

    The ACOYA design is just so spectacular. The others are nice, but fall short on the wow factor.

    Acoya..what is that a pool or an elongated hot tub. Glass Houzz - great but not much space for lounge chairs, etc. and still give you room to move around. Santa Maria got my vote for pool size and lounge space. In addition minimum landscaping and plenty of privacy. Ocean Front residence had a beautiful view - but grass around a pool is a nightmare - the mower always tosses clippings into the pool whether the wind is blowing in at direction or not. lol. Casa Servillanas would have gotten my vote if I could have voted twice. Minimum landscaping, plenty of space for lounge chairs, tables and people.

    I don't think the photos of these pools really did them justice. The first one is most unique so it got my vote.

    I like the Santa Maria Residence Pool because the style could be used anywhere, any back yard. The privacy wall serves for safety as well and makes the swimming experience cozy and private.

    Looks like I'm in the minority here but I really love the Santa Maria Pool the best. It looks cozy and like something that a regular person could have.

    All of them look like decorative pools, nothing that someone would actually swim in. Where are the loungers, chairs, table and umbrella?

    Boutique-de-la-Mer, I love the Santa Maria Pool also, but I voted for Ocean Front, I guess I love extremes. Santa Maria is kind of busy, and Ocean is super simple.

    None of the above. All are too formal and stark. The Acoya is the only one that shows promise. Rumba music playing but as with the others too narrow as it expects only a very few real swimmers.

    I detest pools that are any colour other than pool aqua! Who wants to swim in black/brown/dark green water? It just looks filthy. How would you even see if it is dirty?

    I don't really like any of them....none of them look inviting. If anything, I would vote for the ocean front one because of the palm trees and ocean but didn't like the color or shape of the pool. Where is all the lounge furniture so you can enjoy the pool?

    ACOYA
    Showed most imagination, creativity, and thought towards function and purpose. Allows for ease of conversation with pool users to those outside pool (face to face, a distinct advantage of a raised pool vs suken) Considering the design envioronment in which it is placed seems to be the winner of the 5.

    I voted for Glass Houzz because the pool seemed to go with the architecture better but I'd want it to be an infinity edge pool with a terrific city/ocean/lake view. It would look 100 times better with furniture and plants on the patio. The one I liked least was the Ocean Front. I think it would be full of grass all the time. It needs the patio to go right up to the edge from the house.

    I agree with Tricia Newman about the glass houzz.

    I voted for Glass Houzz because the pool mimicked the architecture the best. The pool seemed to blend with the house, like it was supposed to be there. An infinity edge would have benefited the design and would have created a nice sound for the backyard environment. Nice job!

    They're all absolutely beautiful, but Acoya is my personal favorite--just dazzling!
