The Muse with Spa 7.60m in Pearl installed by Billabong Pool Co.

We’re delighted to announce the inaugural Pool of the Season Customer Winner for Winter 2026 – Lauren and Troy’s stunning Muse with Spa 7.60m in Pearl, installed by Billabong Pool Co. in Appin, NSW.

This beautiful fibreglass pool has transformed Lauren and Troy’s backyard into a space designed for relaxing, spending time together and making the most of the Australian outdoor lifestyle year-round. With its clean lines and balanced proportions, The Muse with Spa sits naturally within the outdoor area, creating a pool that feels as though it has always belonged there.

One of the reasons The Muse with Spa continues to be a popular choice within the Nexus Pools range is its versatility. Combining generous swimming space with the comfort of an integrated spa, the design creates a backyard destination that can be enjoyed throughout the seasons.

From active afternoons in the pool and cooling off during a hot Australian summer to laid-back winter evenings spent warming up in the spa, The Muse with Spa has been designed to complement everyday life.

Its contemporary profile also works beautifully with a wide variety of home styles, landscaping and outdoor spaces, helping create a seamless connection between the home, pool and backyard.

For Lauren and Troy’s home in Appin, the Pearl colour and streamlined pool design complement the surrounding outdoor area while providing plenty of space for relaxing, entertaining and creating new memories.

When reflecting on the finished project, Lauren and Troy couldn’t speak more highly of both their new Nexus Pools fibreglass pool and their experience with the installation team at Billabong Pool Co.

“Absolutely amazing. From the quality to the look, we could not be happier. We cannot thank Mitch, Ellie and there entire team enough! From the initial meeting, to the install, to the hand over, everything was amazing. Their professionalism and communication throughout the whole project was second to none. Constantly keeping us up to date. It has been such a positive experience. We will be recommending them to everyone.

We love our Muse!”

While every backyard and pool project is unique, the goal remains the same: to create a swimming pool that complements the home, suits the customer’s lifestyle and provides a space where family and friends can make memories for years to come.

Bringing a project like this to life requires more than choosing the right pool design.

This project was a true collaboration from concept to completion. Mitch at Billabong Pool Co. delivered the stunning Nexus Pools installation, James at New Life Gardens & Landscaping transformed the outdoor surroundings and the concrete work, crazy paving and glazing helped elevate the final result. Troy himself as part of TLM Built Projects completed the privacy screening and gazebo area, while Lauren’s vision and styling brought the entire space together beautifully. Everyone involved helped turn their dream into a reality!

Mitch and the team at Billabong Pool Co. combined their pool-building experience, local knowledge and an understanding of the Nexus Pools range to help Lauren and Troy navigate their pool journey with confidence. As fibreglass pool builders servicing Wollongong, Picton, Appin and surrounding areas, the team works closely with customers from the early stages of their project through to installation, helping them select a fibreglass pool that complements their backyard, home and lifestyle. Their focus on professional service, clear communication and quality pool installations helps make the process as smooth and enjoyable as possible while delivering a finished backyard that customers can enjoy long after installation is complete.

Lauren and Troy’s Muse with Spa is a fantastic example of this approach — combining a contemporary Nexus Pools design with a carefully considered installation to create a backyard that feels complete.
