Frequently Asked Questions
What types of projects does Aquatics International Group specialize in?
AIG specializes exclusively in luxury resort, hotel, and commercial wellness aquatic construction. Our core markets are Caribbean resort development and NYC-area commercial wellness facilities including aquatic gyms, bathhouses, and spa pools. We do not take on standard residential backyard pools — our practice is built around high-complexity, high-performance aquatic environments that demand engineering expertise, remote logistics capability, and resort-grade execution.
What is the geographic range of AIG's work?
AIG operates primarily in the Caribbean (with particular depth in the U.S. Virgin Islands), New York City, and South Florida. We have delivered projects in logistically complex environments including private islands with no commercial access infrastructure. We are equipped to evaluate and take on projects in international resort destinations — contact us to discuss your specific location.
What credentials and certifications does AIG hold?
AIG holds Society of Watershape Designers certification (KM 072-17) and Certified Pool Operator certification (C-123597). Our work has been recognized with 15+ industry awards including two APSP Best in Show designations, eleven APSP Gold Medals, and two Pebble Tec World’s Greatest Pools recognitions. Our projects have been featured in Caribbean Journal, Luxury Pools Magazine, and Modern Luxury Interiors.
How does the AIG project process work from first contact to completion?
Every AIG engagement begins with a discovery conversation — we take the time to understand your project type, location, development stage, aquatic vision, and timeline before discussing scope or budget. From there, we move into a formal scoping phase, design development, engineering review, permitting coordination, and ultimately construction management and delivery. We manage the full process, including subcontractor selection, material sourcing, inspections, and commissioning. Our goal is a completed aquatic environment that exceeds your expectations and performs reliably for decades.
What makes AIG different from other luxury pool contractors?
Three things set AIG apart: credentials, focus, and experience. Credentials — our portfolio includes the Ritz-Carlton St. Thomas pool complex and TMPL NYC aquatic wellness facility, two of the most recognized luxury aquatic projects in their respective markets. Focus — we specialize exclusively in resort and commercial wellness aquatics, not residential pools. Experience — 25+ years of delivery in some of the world’s most challenging build environments, including remote Caribbean islands and urban high-rise Manhattan. That combination is genuinely rare.
