Pool bars are becoming increasingly popular in backyard swimming pool designs. Homeowners who want to create their own personal resort love to bring all the conveniences and indulgences of vacation right into their own backyard space.
If you’re thinking about enhancing your own property with a new pool feature, here are five chic ideas for backyard pool bars:
- Simple Seats and Shelves – Backyard pool bars can be as elaborate or as seamless as you wish. However, all your guests need is a place to sit and a spot for their beverages. Simple underwater pool seating benches or stools with an above-water shelf can be easily added to any pool design to take your backyard oasis to the next level.
- Pool-Side Service – You might not have a resort staff on hand to mix up your favorite poolside drinks, but pool bars with easy self-service access are the next best thing. Have everything you need at your fingertips to keep the good times rolling without leaving the water.
- Swim-Up and Walk-Up Options – Whether your guests want to enjoy their drink on the pool deck or in the water is up to them! Pool bars that offer both swim-up and walk-up seating options will optimize your space while accommodating all your guests.
- In-Pool Lounges – Under-water barstools are nice, but why not relax on an in-pool lounge chair? Add a shelf to rest your beverage while you sit back, put your feet up, and enjoy your backyard retreat.
- Incorporate the Outdoor Kitchen – Optimize space and functionality by designing your pool bar as part of your outdoor kitchen, all seamlessly incorporated with the pool itself.
