Not every backyard has space for an Olympic-sized pool, but that doesn’t mean you can’t enjoy the luxury and relaxation of your own private retreat.
Whether you’re looking for something sleek and modern or rustic and natural, here are the best small pool ideas to inspire the transformation of your own space no matter what size!
Plunge Pools
Plunge pools are not just perfect for relaxation and cooling off, they also require less space, water, and maintenance than standard pools, making them ideal for urban homes with small gardens, courtyards or side yards.
Modern designs often feature clean lines, tiled interiors, and can even be heated for year-round use.
Spools
“Spool” (spa + pool) designs combine the best of a hot tub and a plunge pool giving you the best of both worlds in spaces.
Equipped with jets, these pools are great for hydrotherapy and can be heated or cooled as needed making them a luxurious yet practical solution.
Natural Rock Pools
For a more organic aesthetic, a small rock pool surrounded by greenery and flowing water mimics a natural spring.
These are ideal for those who want a relaxing backyard that feels like a private paradise.
Lap Pools
Even narrow yards can accommodate a lap pool. If you’re short on space but serious about fitness, a lap pool provides a stylish, space-saving way to stay active.
With sleek lines and a modern edge, these are functional and visually striking.
Mini-Edge Infinity Pools
Mini infinity pools add a touch of elegance and are especially striking on rooftops or patios with a view.
The visual effect of water flowing over the edge enhances the sense of luxury, even in the smallest spaces.
