That is a fairly good price most places. Prices do vary quite a bit from place to place however.

If at all possible get a two speed pump, or if your electrical rates are above $0.20 per kwh get a variable speed pump.
 
Where are you located? Prices in Florida are very inexpensive and you have quoted footings for enclosure. How much deck area are you getting and is it stamped concrete or pavers?
 
We am in Tampa. We are getting Shellock from Artistic Pavers for the decking. I'll have to look into the exact square footage of decking we are getting as part of the package. I mentioned the footers for the enclosures b/c we though it made sense to put it in now in case we wanted it in the future as they are fairly common in FL.
 
Normally in the contract it states a specific size of deck. Nail down the cost if it exceeds that square footage so there is no suprise in cost when they tell you how much more per square foot it will be. Also make sure you have the removal of dirt costs defined in the contract so those additional costs come out as "by the way"...
 
That sounds about right. We are in Tarpon Springs and our quote for
14x28 freeform 11,500gallon with 7' custom spa raised 18in, salt sytem, variable speed pump, infloor cleaning system, sunshelf with bubbler and travertine decking 500 sq ft plud redo anouther 450 sq ft of existing deck with travertine is $42,000
