Jackalope Hotel

The brief was to create a world-class swimming pool within the newly developed Jackalope Hotel. The swimming pool also needed to take advantage of the extensive views of the existing Willow Creek winery.

Construction of the 29.5m x 4.8m swimming pool was largely built out of the ground, in order to meet the eyeline of the new hotel and expansive grapevines. An engineered foundation system was installed prior to the pool base. The negative edge runs 38.6 lineal meters and was designed in such a way so as to reduce heat loss and evaporation rates that are typical with this type of detail.

Working with Aloha pools is always very reassuring for me. From sales to design, right through to the pool’s construction, I have a great sense of confidence knowing that Aloha have all bases covered. Their expertise of the industry allows us to provide our clients with the latest trends, features and functionality. I look forward to working with Aloha on another landmark project.

Robert Cronin, Site Manager of the Jackalope Hotel, VCON Constructions

It was a pleasure to deal with Aloha. I want thank the Aloha team for providing a professional & quality service. I am delighted with the final build on the pool. Across all areas including design, administration & the pool build, Aloha were excellent. The pool interior was finished with 20mm x 20mm glass mosaics, the workmanship on the tile install is of the highest quality.

Darren McErlain, Project Manager, Hacer Group

Aloha completed the communal pool, spa and plunge pool at The Fawkner, a recently completed multi-residential project on St Kilda Road. They were easy to work with, and most importantly provided a holistic service from concept design to construction. I’m sure we’ll work together again.
