The 2025 SPASA Awards of Excellence in the Northern Territory lit up Thursday night as gold winners, highly commended recipients, and proud nominees gathered to celebrate the outstanding achievements of the state’s vibrant pool and spa industry.
"It was so exciting to head north and join our members in the Territory to announce the winners of the Northern Territory SPASA Awards of Excellence. These awards were a wonderful way to connect and celebrate in a casual setting. Building in the Territory can present some unique challenges and our members are clearly working hard to deliver the best pools and spas for their customers. Tonight’s winners and finalists should be extremely proud of their efforts and I look forward to seeing the Gold winners join their peers in September at the Gala awards." said Kristin Brookfield, Chief Executive Officer, SPASA
This pool has quickly become the standout feature of a Northern Territory accommodation property, earning glowing reviews from guests and even sparking new client enquiries. With a long bench perfectly positioned for sunset views, it’s the ideal spot to unwind with a drink and soak up the scenery. At night, the pool lights transform the space into a welcoming and visually striking retreat. It’s a clear example of how great design not only enhances a property but leaves a lasting impression that spreads well beyond its original setting.
"The customer is constantly calling me to say that he is getting great reports from the people who a renting his accommodation rooms on the swimming pool! They are loving how it looks, the large bench along the one side that provides the best place to sit, have a beer and watch the sunset! They also love how the pool lights look at night. I have had further enquiries from some of these people on building pools for them at their homes in Darwin!" - Pooltech NT
This pool has completely transformed a once-unused part of the yard into a vibrant hub of family connection and outdoor enjoyment. What was once overlooked is now the most cherished area of the home, perfect for relaxing, entertaining, and making memories with loved ones. The owner’s pride in the result speaks volumes, with compliments flowing in about both the quality of the installation and the new lifestyle it brings. It’s a wonderful example of how the right pool, built with care and expertise, can breathe new life into a home.
"The owner is exceptionally happy with the finished product of this pool and how it has transformed an un-used area in her yard into now the most enjoyable zone for the whole family. She loves that she has such a great area to invite people over to enjoy with her family! This was all possible due to the quality of the Compass Pools shell and the ability & experience of Pooltech NT." - Pooltech NT
This spa has quickly become a beloved part of daily life for the homeowners, offering comfort, convenience, and low-maintenance luxury. With its smooth surface, easy access, and thoughtfully added ladder, it delivers a relaxing experience that’s both functional and enjoyable, every single day. Replacing a more demanding concrete spa, this modern upgrade has not only simplified upkeep but elevated the entire outdoor living experience. It’s a perfect example of how smart design can enhance both comfort and lifestyle.
"The owners love their spa, they are in it every day. They love how comfortable the smooth surface is, they find it very easy to get in and out (especially as I added the ladder to it after landscaping was complete) and the maintenance is a fraction of what the replaced concrete spa was!" - Pooltech NT
