Swimming Pool Entertaining Areas

From laying back soaking up the sun, sizzling up some snags on the barbecue or just chilling while others take a dip, there’s so much you can do with swimming pool entertaining areas.

Here at Sunsetter Pools & Spas, the importance of swimming pool entertaining areas cannot be overstated. We know it’s highly likely you’ll be spending as much time around the pool as you will be in it and you want the whole area to look amazing!

Creating perfect swimming pool entertaining areas is what we do best because we know it enhances your experience. With the right materials, furniture and other accessories, you can create the perfect outdoor retreat for your home and yard. Let’s dive in a little deeper and see how we can make it happen.

Capturing the essence of the sun

For those who love catching the sun’s rays, you want the best spot to sunbathe. Sun loungers, daybeds or even built-in poolside benches provide the best spots to relax and enjoy the warmth. But it’s not all about what you lie or sit down on either. The use of umbrellas, both poolside and stretching over the pool, along with other shade options such as pergolas or purpose-built structures can give you somewhere to retreat to when you need a little refuge from the heat.

Entertaining around the pool

When you’re entertaining guests, what’s better than having your barbecue nearby? An outdoor kitchen with a built-in barbecue, sink and bench space makes hosting pool parties easy and convenient. Stainless steel appliances are perfect for their durability and ability to withstand Melbourne’s harsh weather conditions. Don’t forget somewhere to enjoy your yummy dishes. Table and chairs or plenty of undercover lounge space is a great spot to eat together outdoors.

Check out the decking

When it comes to decking around the pool, timber is always a nice, natural look, blending seamlessly with the surrounding landscape, especially in larger yards. For those wanting a different look, stone or tile decking areas, such as granite or sandstone offer a sleek and modern look for your pool. They can withstand outdoor conditions and frequent water exposure, while their textured surface provides a better grip when it comes to safety around the pool.

Seats and lounges

While it would be awesome to drag your comfy indoor lounge outside to relax on, there are some better ways to go about it. Add in an outdoor sofa, a modular lounge set up or built-in benches with comfy cushions to create your outdoor relaxation haven.
