My first thought is you have lots of money and I need to be nice to you.POOL PEOPLE: Putting in a pool for a part-time home, part time rental. Currently the plan is to have a "deep end" of 6.6 feet. Some suggest we go sport or do a 5 foot depth/sport.
Any experience or suggestions? It's a decent size pool and we are thinking most would like a deep end but that could well be a personal bias. The poo has a spa, tanning shelf, swim up seating to the bar and a shallow end. As I 2nd guess myself, I was thinking about making the hammer head side of the pool (where the line is ) 6.5 feet and the rest 5.
Any thoughts? Hammer away.

My first thought is you have lots of money and I need to be nice to you.
My suggestion is that you look into insurance costs for the pool, especially because the pool is going to be a rental part-time. A friend of mine once told me that when he put an in-ground in, making the deep end greater than 6' upped the costs of liability insurance significantly. Given that you're renting out part time, maybe keeping it a little shallower is a better idea.

What’s the discount code for Hfboard members?Thank you. No need to be nice to me, because I don't have any money. It's all in a freaking house!
That said, this next statement may not convince you otherwise. The pool is for a home in Costa Rica. The guests will have access to the ocean and two clubhouse pools. While both are free, many do not want to swim and sunbath in a larger pool. Plus a burger is $20 and a drink is, well its a bar. The home is 4 bedrooms and we expect couples with with a kids and larger families. My thought is they will want to cannon ball, dive and swim and the adults hang out in the spa and tanning shelf. At east that is what I did as a kid and still do now.

Congrats heyfolks, I remember you talking about this as your plan almost 20 years ago on RWC. Looks great.Using a Wings based discount formula. The discount = the years since they won the Cup. RW16.
That said, first things first, I have to get the damn thing built. A great base camp, or resort week, in coastal NW Costa Rica. My wife is a Tica and did not want a home in CR. After 6 weeks in this area, she limited my options to 1 community. 7 years later I found a fire sale lot. 5 years later, this build. The glamour of it all, we've been renting for 6 years now. This home will be done in January.
So the new HF Red Wings only vacation discount resort is a 4 bedroom place in Reserva Conchal. Full owners club benefits. Design photos attached.
The home is in a gated community within a gated community.

If you can't wait they have two resorts Westin All inclusive and W. Room cost doubles in high season (December-April is the summer season). The rental price will likely match the higher end rooms, but hold more folks (making it more affordable and, if I build the right pool, fun. < I can see my brothers and I with our kids at the place. We want our own pool, not osmething at the club.
Does that mean you'll have 50% of people blindly support you and give you attaboys even if production hits a snag and the other 50% telling you what a dumbshit you are for even considering this?
Aww. Does that mean no LED roof with the Wings logo?
