Swimming Pools in Villajoyosa

Hello, I am Álvaro Ferrer, the project coordinator for outdoor spaces here at TuExterior. If you are looking to install a swimming pool in Villajoyosa, you have come to the right place. As a resident or homeowner in this beautiful corner of the Marina Baixa, you know that the Mediterranean lifestyle is defined by the sun and the sea. With a population of approximately 36,891 people, La Vila Joiosa—as we locals call it—is growing, yet it maintains that authentic charm that makes it unique in the Alicante province. Whether you live in the historic Poble Nou with its iconic coloured houses, the tranquil residential area of La Tellerola, or the elevated villas of Montiboli and Montesol, a private pool is the ultimate addition to your home.

Working in this coastal area presents specific challenges, particularly the high salt exposure and humidity near Playa de Torres. We specialise in materials that withstand the marine environment without corroding or fading. Understanding the local market is also vital for budgeting; in Villajoyosa a swimming pool typically runs 8000-25000 € including local labour, depending on the size, excavation complexity, and chosen finishes. My role is to ensure that your project not only looks stunning but is built to last in our specific coastal climate, providing a refreshing retreat for those long, hot Valencian summers.

Regulations and Permits in Villajoyosa

Navigating the legal requirements for a swimming pool in Villajoyosa is a critical step that we manage to ensure your peace of mind. The primary regulatory framework is the Plan General de Ordenación Urbana (PGOU) of the Ayuntamiento de Villajoyosa. This document dictates the "retranqueos" (the mandatory distance between the water's edge and your neighbour's boundary or the public street), which usually ranges between 2 to 3 metres depending on your specific urbanisation zone.

For most residential pools, you will need to apply for an "Obra Mayor" (Major Works License) because it involves structural excavation and permanent changes to the land. This requires a technical project signed by an architect and approved by the College of Architects. If you are only renovating an existing pool or installing a removable structure, an "Obra Menor" or a "Declaración Responsable" might suffice. Additionally, for any shading structures or pergolas surrounding your new pool, we strictly adhere to the UNE-EN 13561 standard, which governs the safety and performance requirements for external blinds and awnings. We also ensure that all water drainage systems comply with local environmental standards to protect the Marina Baixa groundwater and coastal ecosystem.
