What is a Crystal Lagoon? Everything Hawaii Homeowners Need to Know
If you have heard the term Crystal Lagoon and wondered what it actually means — you are not alone. Crystal Lagoons are one of the most exciting aquatic innovations available today and Waves Aquatics is the only company in Hawaii installing them on private estates and resort developments. Here is everything you need to know.
What is a Crystal Lagoon? A Crystal Lagoon is a man-made body of water that recreates the look, feel, and experience of a natural beach environment. Think crystal clear turquoise water, a gradual sandy shoreline entry, and the sensation of swimming in a pristine natural lagoon — right on your property. Crystal Lagoons are powered by patented technology developed by Crystal Lagoons®, a company with over 1,000 projects across 60 countries worldwide.
How is it Different from a Pool? A traditional pool is a contained body of water designed for swimming. A Crystal Lagoon is an entirely different experience. It is designed to feel like nature — not like a pool. The water is crystal clear from edge to edge, the entry is gradual like a beach, and the overall environment creates a sense of being somewhere truly extraordinary. Many Waves Aquatics clients describe it as having a private piece of Hawaii's most beautiful shoreline at home.
What Makes the Water Different? Crystal Lagoons use up to 100 times fewer chemicals than a conventional swimming pool. The technology uses a sustainable closed circuit system that keeps the water clean and clear without the harshness of chlorine or salt water. The result is water that is gentle on skin, eyes, and hair — and breathtakingly beautiful to look at.
What Size Can a Crystal Lagoon Be? Crystal Lagoons are available in a wide range of sizes. Small Lagoons start at under one acre and are perfect for private estates and boutique resorts. Larger lagoons of one acre or more are ideal for resort developments, master planned communities, and large scale hospitality projects. Waves Aquatics works with clients across all scales — from private homeowners to major resort developers across all Hawaiian islands.
Is a Crystal Lagoon Right for Your Hawaii Property? If you are a homeowner looking for something beyond a traditional pool, a Crystal Lagoon is the ultimate upgrade. If you are a resort or community developer looking for an amenity that defines your entire project and drives property values, a Crystal Lagoon is one of the most powerful investments you can make.
