Frequently Asked Questions
-
We have spent years engineering a streamlined process — from design to construction to finishing — that eliminates the delays that slow other companies down. Our experienced island-wide team, pre-planned logistics, and deep supplier relationships allow us to deliver world-class results in a fraction of the typical time.
-
Our exclusive premium finish is simply not available through any other pool company in Hawaii. It is smoother to the touch, richer in appearance, far more durable, and far more resistant to staining and fading than traditional plaster. Once you see and feel the difference, there is no comparison.
-
A Crystal Lagoon is designed to recreate the feeling of a natural Hawaiian beach — with magnesium-enriched water, a gradual sandy shoreline entry, and breathtaking water clarity. It is not just a water feature. It is a destination.
-
Magnesium-enriched water is the most luxurious and wellness-forward water option available today. While chlorine and salt water pools remain popular choices, magnesium water takes the experience a step further — naturally softer and more soothing, gentle on skin, eyes, and hair without the chemical smell of chlorine or the occasional harshness of salt water. Many of our clients describe it as closer to a natural hot spring than a traditional pool. For our Crystal Lagoon installations it is the only choice we recommend — and once you experience it, it is very hard to go back.
-
Absolutely. Our marine-grade coating is 100% waterproof and non-toxic, meaning it is safe for Hawaii's precious ocean ecosystem. You can feel proud of what goes into our waters.
-
Collaborative, honest, and straightforward. We're here to guide the process, bring ideas to the table, and keep things moving.
-
Look for a licensed pool contractor Hawaii homeowners have trusted over many years, with documented experience across all Hawaiian islands. Waves Aquatics has 20+ years of experience as a luxury pool builder company in Hawaii, with 500+ completed projects on the Big Island, Maui, Oahu, and Kauai.
