Bespoke Luxury Infinity Pool Construction in Coveta Fuma, Alicante
When it comes to luxury infinity pool construction in Alicante, the landscape does not always politely hand you a perfectly flat canvas. In fact, for this spectacular residential project located in the exclusive enclave of Coveta Fuma, El Campello, Mother Nature presented us with a sheer, rocky drop from the villa down to the street level. But where others might see an impossible incline, we at EdenPool see the perfect excuse to build something extraordinary. As the premier custom pool builders on the Costa Blanca, we know that the most demanding terrains almost always yield the most dramatic architectural results.
The Challenge: Conquering the Costa Blanca Terrain
Building a custom swimming pool on a severe slope requires far more than simply excavating a hole in the ground. The original garden featured a massive level difference, demanding a masterclass in structural engineering before any aesthetic work could begin. As you can see in our initial site photograph, “hms_before.webp”, the groundwork required an immense, fortified retaining structure. Our goal was simple but daunting: ensure that a colossal 60m³ of water—roughly 60 tonnes of weight—remained exactly where we put it, without a millimetre of movement over time.

The Engineering: A Masterclass in Structural Integrity
To support a bespoke infinity pool of this magnitude, standard lightweight solutions simply would not suffice. We engineered a profoundly solid, heavy-duty gunite concrete shell to anchor this aquatic oasis firmly to the hillside. The true magic of an infinity pool lies in the flawless illusion of water vanishing seamlessly into the horizon. To achieve this architectural trick, we constructed two precision-levelled side walls acting as zero-edge weirs. The surface water cascades smoothly over these edges into a hidden collection gutter before coming to rest in a deposit tank, where our high-efficiency pumping system quietly returns it to the main pool.
The Aesthetics: Modern Minimalist Elegance
With the engineering locked down, it was time to focus on the premium finish. We entirely bypassed the traditional (and arguably tired) Greek border, opting instead for striking dark blue glass mosaic tiles. This bold, uninterrupted choice delivers a deep, mesmerising modern pool design that beautifully mirrors the expansive Spanish sky above.
To perfectly complement the vibrant water, the surrounding terrace was laid with magnificent, oversized natural stone paving slabs measuring a generous 1.20m x 0.60m. As flawlessly captured in “hms_deco_after.webp”, these expansive stone dimensions minimize visual grout lines, creating a vast, sweeping space for plush sun loungers and decorative Moroccan lanterns.
The transformation from a jagged, uneven rock face to an exquisite modern villa outdoor space is nothing short of breathtaking. It is the exact sort of backyard upgrade that practically demands a chilled gin and tonic the moment you step outside.
