It’s helped build their confidence hugely! We couldn’t be happier with the service provided from Coastal Pools from consent stage right through to the finishing touches, tips and tricks with having a pool!"

"We are rapt with our Coastal Pool, installed by Monty and his team. The pool not only looks beautiful, it's so easy to maintain which is a very pleasant surprise after what people say about hassles with pools - we haven't had any problems at all! Monty explained everything to us in a simple, but thorough way, and we couldn't have asked for better help and service. Monty was so helpful and easy to deal with, and it was so nice to deal with someone who actually delivered on their promises, and schedule! There's no "mucking around" with Monty and his team, they arrived to work earlier than we get up.... and worked long and hard hours to get the job done asap. We wouldn't hesitate to recommend Monty and Coastal Pools to prospective Clients"
Amanda and Carl H, Colyton
"We had a fantastic experience with Barrier Reef Pools. From start to finish, their team was incredibly helpful and communicative, keeping us informed every step of the way. Their attention to detail was excellent, ensuring that everything was done to the highest standard. One of the things we appreciated most was their commitment to the timeline—they were always attentive to the dates and times they set, which made the entire process smooth and stress-free. They also worked seamlessly with our other contractors, including the landscapers, making coordination effortless. Overall, we couldn’t be happier with the result"
Jonathan P, Napier
"After having issues with our pool due to poor drainage, we decided to remove the existing pool, fix our drainage issues and then install a new pool where the existing pool was. As this was not our first pool installation we had a good idea of the process and reached out to three swimming pool companies to discuss our requirements. All three companies responded but the initial responses and speed of communication from Monty far exceeded our expectations. We made the decision to go with Monty. From the first onsite visit through to the handover of the finished pool Monty, Liam and his team were a dream to work with. They were professional in their approach and when the wife threw a curve ball and decided we needed a heater unit, not far off completion time, one was procured and installed within days. The pool is everything we dreamed it would be and for anyone considering installing a swimming pool, we can highly recommend Coastal Pools"
Colin A, Ormondville
"We can highly recommend Coastal Pools NZ Ltd (trading as Barrier Reef Pools Coastal). We found both Monty and Liam great to deal with and they were very happy to explain things along the way. We were kept informed as to where the pool was at (seeing as it had to come from Australia) and Monty emailed/rang us regularly to provide updates and timelines. They were extremely efficient in installing the pool, the hole was dug and the pool in, all in one day. They both were very knowledgeable and we felt that they did a great job. We were reminded that if we have any questions or concerns, not to hesitate in contacting them.We would very gladly recommend them to any prospective pool purchaser"
Chris and Karen B, Napier
