East Coast Pools & Spas Wins Bronze in the 2025 PHTA International Awards of Excellence
East Coast Pools & Spas is thrilled to announce that we’ve earned a Bronze Award in the 2025 Pool & Hot Tub Alliance (PHTA) International Awards of Excellence! This year’s recognition celebrates our work in the “Pool Ingenuity – Fun Features” category — a brand-new division that honors pools designed “for the family.”
The PHTA International Awards of Excellence, sponsored by AQUA Magazine, are among the most prestigious honors in the pool and hot tub industry. The program recognizes the most creative, beautiful, and innovative pool, spa, and hot tub designs across the globe. We’re incredibly proud to be included among the top professionals shaping the future of outdoor living.
A New Category — and a New Win
The “Fun Features” category was introduced this year to spotlight pools that emphasize entertainment, interaction, and family enjoyment. From water games to playful design elements, this division celebrates builders who think beyond beauty and focus on how families truly live and play outdoors.
Our Bronze Award-winning pool perfectly captures that spirit.
About the Project
This showstopping backyard is a blend of luxury, comfort, and fun for all ages. The design features:
🔥 Two fire bowls framing the pool for a bold, resort-style ambiance
🍔 A massive outdoor kitchen for entertaining and family meals
🏀 A basketball hoop for endless poolside fun
🛋️ Ample lounge space for relaxing, gathering, and making memories
Every element was designed with purpose — balancing sleek design with interactive features that bring people together. The result is a backyard retreat where sophistication meets playfulness.
