Updated video of pool during high sun. We did Stonescapes aqua white with abalone shell and Puerto Rico blend glass beads. I think in the video I said another name, but it's Puerto Rico blend.
Thank you so much Angela! Your pool overall is stunning! The water color is exactly what I'm looking for! We are building in SW Florida, & we chose the aqua white mini with the puerto rico blend glass beads. I really like the idea of the abalone shell, but I've heard mixed reviews on the longevity and/or discoloration over time. Also, I've had the hardest time finding any pics of the actual glass bead blend recipes online. And NPT has not been helpful at all. I can't even get them to send me an interior finish sample/swatch that we saw in a pool store.🤦♀️😫 So thank you again for taking the time to do this! It really helps!
You're welcome. We had the hardest time picking a color with NPT pools for the same reason. Not many good pictures online and not nearly enough videos of it. That is why I decided to post mine, in hopes it could help someone else. We haven't had any issues thus far with the abalone shells, but we have only had the pool for two years. Best of luck with your pool building. You'll love this color in person for sure
Thanks for the post. We were all set for aqua blue but my wife saw this and wants to change to aqua white. We have one week to decide and it's been such a tough choice. Your pool is awesome by the way. We love the design.
It looks beautiful! It seems to have a teal tint to it. Is that accurate to the eye, or is that just how it looks on video. We are deciding between aqua blue and aqua white. We are trying to avoid any green. Apart from the chemicals you mentioned, does this color ever venture into any green hues? Thank you!
Angela your pool is absolutely stunning great choices you made. Can you please share the name of your tile, I am planing on picking mine from NPT Thanks
I'm so so sorry this took so long to get back to you. Here is the tile we used www.mineraltiles.com/products/iridescent-glass-tile-ripple-ocean-blend-1-x-2?_pos=3&_sid=a85590b75&_ss=r
High Angela! Love your pool shape and color and grotto with slide area. You mentioned in a comment your pool tile wasn’t holding up. I see you used a mineral tile that I really like the color of. What about the tile isn’t holding up? Was it install related as to why it’s not holding up or is it quality of the tile that’s not making it hold up. How have they fixed your issues with the tile?Thanks so much!
The tile is from mineral tile website, but I wouldn't recommend it. It seems to crack super easy and we have had so many crack in two years we have had it. Looks nice but not that durable.
Everything has held up very well! we are still very happy the pool. Color has remained vibrant and no issues other than our tiles which has started to pop off the spill over area on the hot tub
sorry just now seeing this. It was Puerto Rico blend. Since the pool contractor threw them in for free I'm not sure of the size, but would guess small.
Just keep in mind these are glass tiles so they do crack pretty easily. We have found many of them cracked over the last two years, so we might have went with another tile if we knew this would happen so much.
@@robinlenhardt2111 We haven't attempted it but I would say it would need to be completly redone to replace. It's sure beautiful but if I had to choose again I would have got something a little more durable.
Hi I’m doing the aqua white . I’m debating on the abalone shells. Is it just the tanning ledges that you see it ? Or do you see the sparkles in the whole pool?
@@angelarebollar3948 do you happen to have any videos of the pool at night with the lights? We are also looking at Aqua White but the Puerto Rican blend and our design includes 1 large and 3 small colorlogic lights in the pool 1 large in spa plus two lighted bubblers. Thanks in advance.
I have no idea, I believe blue, but we just picked the color and the builder did everything so I can't really say. The plaster came out blue tho and the stones in the plaster are blue as well. Hope that helps.

With the exception of the step liner tile this looks great!
Beautiful pool.
Thank you!

Just saw your reply. What did you end up going with? Both colors are beautiful for sure.
Thank you so much!
Thanks for posting! 🙏 I’m currently in the process if deciding whether I want to go with aqua white or aqua blue. 👍
Same here what'd you go with? Any pics?

Thank you! We didn't go with NPT tile. We ended up getting tile from mineral tile.

@@angelarebollar3948 no worries at all thank you for your response, we finally went for the glass tile royal bleue and it turned out fantastic ☺️

Hi! Your pool is amazing!! Is it salt or chlorine water?
Beautiful pool! Can you tell me the size of your spa?
I'm not sure the size but I do know it's a standard size from what the pool guy said.
How long does this particular plaster last? It's beautiful by the way.
We are about to have this done to our pool and there is a 10 year warranty.
Beautiful pool. Did you get the mini or the regular pepple size. We are currently in the process and I am having a hard time deciding. Thanks
we did the mini pebble. I didn't like the roughness of the bigger pebble. Sorry this is so late. Just now catching up on questions.
Thank you! This is what we are planning to use. What tile did you use? I love how it compliments the finish. Beautiful pool!

Hi - thanks for this informative video. Now that it's been a couple of years, how is the finish/color holding up? Thank you.
Everything has held up very well! we are still very happy the pool. Color has remained vibrant and no issues other than our tiles which has started to pop off the spill over area on the hot tub
For the glass that you added, was it the Puerto Rico blend or Touch of Glass? If the PR blend, do you recall if large or small? Thanks!
sorry just now seeing this. It was Puerto Rico blend. Since the pool contractor threw them in for free I'm not sure of the size, but would guess small.
Where is your waterline tile from? Thanks
Beautiful pool! And super helpful video. Can you tell me the tile you used?

Hi, what does it look like when it's cloudy or no sun through cloudy days or rainy days? Also getting this color for our pool soon!
It looks just duller and not as vibrant, but still beautiful
Hi I’m doing the aqua white . I’m debating on the abalone shells. Is it just the tanning ledges that you see it ? Or do you see the sparkles in the whole pool?
Sorry for the lat reply. When it is sunny we see it mostly in the shallow end and the shelf. Deep end they aren't as apparent
Beautiful! How bright does the pool light up at night?
It's pretty bright but we have three big lights and two small lights in the grotto
@@angelarebollar3948 do you happen to have any videos of the pool at night with the lights? We are also looking at Aqua White but the Puerto Rican blend and our design includes 1 large and 3 small colorlogic lights in the pool 1 large in spa plus two lighted bubblers. Thanks in advance.
@@chrisw9813 I don't but can make one for you tonight and post in the morning
@@chrisw9813 czcams.com/video/Oc3HS8DTkBQ/video.html posted a night video for you
Where your glass beads mix in with the finish or did they hand cast them?
They did both. They mixed some and then tossed some on top while smoothing plaster
hi is your stone base white or blue? i am sorry. It is still confusing when i am looking at the NPT website. thank you again.
I have no idea, I believe blue, but we just picked the color and the builder did everything so I can't really say. The plaster came out blue tho and the stones in the plaster are blue as well. Hope that helps.
Hello- jimmy who also has ur pool
Color didn’t add glass beads. U did- do u feel it changed ur color compared to his?
I would say, not really. But I do love the glass beads and like how it breaks up the plaster color a bit.
