yes i have swapped to wanting a gunite pool and i viewed a neighbor's pool with the aforementioned grotto/waterfall/slide and want that instead of the turbotwister plastic now
I’ll have to check out gunite options. I originally heard that it was the most expensive so I kind of discounted it. And I’m a little worried about having to replaster in the future.

There is maintenance w any pool ita no different whatever u choose. Using tfp methods and having a robot make it a breeze I spent 10 min every 3 days worrying about the pool. Same as any other. Save ur money and get some more prices. Ny is just as expensive as NJ prices and elsewhere u can get a whole lot more for 85 large than basic fiberglass
I imagine we are in the same boat if you’re in NJ. I’ll definitely look into other options. One of my biggest struggles has been getting a response from the builders I’ve called. Not sure if it’s because we’re almost in November now or what it might be.

While the overall shape is important, when selecting the shell also consider the seating options available while in the water.
If you are going to lounge around in the water a lot, then ensure there are some good seating spots in the pool.
Thank you for the suggestion! I haven’t thought much about seating but it does seem like a good idea. I also thought about a tanning ledge, more for my dogs than for me
