After working together in the building industry for over 15 years, Mario and Angie joined forces to establish La Vida Pools. Mario’s trade and building background combined with Angie’s sales, marketing and project management experience have grown La Vida into the highly successful, award-winning company it is today. Members of Masters Building Association and SPASA, it is our decades of experience, state-of-the art designs and technology, as well as our old school family values of honesty and reliability that set us apart. Driven by our desire to exceed client expectations we go the extra mile on each-and-every project. From our detailed initial consultation to keeping you informed throughout the process and creating a magnificent pool to the highest specifications, our 5-star service have earned us a reputation as Brisbane’s best. Mario is known as the “pool building gun”- he is dedicated wholly to the construction process. He is not a salesman. As a thinker, problem solver and doer, he has been able to successfully build pools for clients who were told by other companies that it wasn’t possible. Angie is highly professional yet very approachable. Her organisational skills and excellent relationship with trades and suppliers means she makes things happen; ensuring your pool project stays on track. At La Vida, we guarantee a seamless pool building experience and a stunning final product that will be the envy of your friends and family.

The Barrier Reef Pools story began some 25 years ago when Mike and Patty Crooks were buying and installing fibreglass swimming pool shells in tropical north Queensland. They saw the need in the market for a quality fibreglass pool shell that could handle anything that was thrown at it. They wanted a quality shell that could stand the impacts of long road deliveries, be easy to install and be able to stand up to the elements over time.
