About This Project
This Gran Paradiso homeowner moved into Wellen Park and wanted a pool ready within months of move-in. Pool Creations was their first call — and for good reason. We've built more pools in Gran Paradiso than any other contractor in the community, and our familiarity with the HOA's ARC process means faster approvals and fewer surprises.
The design is a clean rectangular pool with an integrated spa, a sun shelf with a single bubbler, and travertine decking that matches the home's exterior. The pool is finished with StoneScapes Mini Pebble in a cool blue-gray tone that reads beautifully in the Florida sun. LED color-changing lighting allows the family to set the mood for evening entertaining.
Pentair IntelliCenter automation gives the homeowners full smartphone control — they can heat the spa, adjust the lighting, and run the pool equipment from anywhere. The salt chlorine generator keeps maintenance minimal, and Pool Creations' weekly service team handles the rest.
Pool Creations managed all Gran Paradiso HOA/ARC documentation and Sarasota County permitting in-house. The project was completed on schedule and within budget.
