About us
Where Architecture Meets Water
Aquatics International Group is a luxury aquatic design-build firm with 25+ years of experience constructing high-performance pool environments for the world’s most demanding clients. Founded on the belief that water is the defining element of any premier destination, AIG specializes in resort hospitality and commercial wellness aquatics — delivering projects that are as technically sophisticated as they are visually stunning.
Our flagship credentials — the Ritz-Carlton St. Thomas pool complex and TMPL NYC aquatic wellness facility — represent the standard we hold every project to. Whether we are engineering a multi-pool resort complex in the Caribbean or building a rooftop wellness pool in Manhattan, our process is defined by precision, partnership, and uncompromising quality.
What We Build
Design & Engineering
Concept-to-blueprint aquatic design engineered for structural performance, code compliance, and visual impact. Every detail is coordinated — from hydraulics and filtration to finish materials and lighting — before a single shovel breaks ground.
Construction Management
Full-scope construction oversight across some of the most logistically challenging environments on the planet — remote Caribbean islands, urban high-rises, and active resort properties. We manage subcontractors, timelines, and budgets with surgical precision.
Aquatic Wellness
Turnkey aquatic wellness environments for luxury fitness clubs, hotel spas, bathhouses, and resort wellness centers. Our experience building TMPL NYC gives us a depth of knowledge in aquatic wellness construction that virtually no competitor can match.

Client Satisfaction
Five-Star Resort, St. Thomas USVI
“We needed an aquatic partner who understood what it means to build for a five-star resort guest — someone for whom nothing is ever quite good enough. Aquatics International Group delivered a multi-pool complex that operates flawlessly in a Caribbean environment, meets every brand standard we hold ourselves to, and photographs beautifully for our marketing. The level of construction expertise they brought to a remote island project was unlike anything we had experienced with any contractor before.”

Aquatic Wellness Facility, New York City
“Building a world-class aquatic wellness facility inside a Manhattan commercial space is a fundamentally different challenge than any traditional pool build. Aquatics International Group understood the union labor environment, the permit filing process, the ceiling clearances, the waterproofing requirements — they solved problems that other contractors told us were impossible. The result is the premium aquatic environment we envisioned, and it has become the most celebrated amenity in our facility.”

“Aquatics International Group excavated volcanic bedrock on a steep hillside with no road access and delivered an infinity pool that looks like it emerged from the rock itself. No other contractor would even take the project. The founder personally managed every detail of a build that required engineering solutions on the fly, in conditions that would have stopped anyone else. The final result is the defining feature of our property — and worth every challenge it took to get there.”

Caribbean Resort Developer
“When we evaluate aquatic design-build partners for a Caribbean resort project, our first question is always: have they done this before, under these exact conditions? Aquatics International Group has. They understand shipping logistics to remote islands, local permitting, subcontractor coordination, and they still deliver a product that meets international hospitality standards. That combination is extraordinarily rare — and it is why we keep coming back to them.”

Commercial Wellness Facility, NYC
“We were building a high-performance recovery facility and needed aquatic systems that could handle real commercial cold plunge demand — not spa tubs dressed up as cold plunge. Aquatics International Group specified and built systems that hold temperature under continuous use, integrate with our full hot and cold circuit design, and fit the aesthetic of a premium wellness environment. They are the only contractor I would trust with this type of build, and the proof is in how the facility performs every single day.”
