Reef – Fibreglass Plunge Pool Shell
$13,820.00
The Reef brings together the openness of a larger pool with the practicality of a compact fibreglass shell, making it ideal for homeowners who want more space to gather, float, and unwind without committing to a full-sized lap pool.
With its expansive 3.5m width and clean rectangular layout, the Reef creates a noticeably more social and luxurious in-water experience than most compact pool shells. It feels open, calm, and generous from the moment you step into it — the kind of pool that naturally becomes the focal point of the entire backyard.
Available in both 4m and 5m lengths, the Reef gives homeowners flexibility depending on how much swim space and depth they want to incorporate into their outdoor area. The 4m version remains highly achievable for modern suburban blocks while still delivering enough interior room for families, entertaining, floating, and genuine relaxation. The larger 5m Reef adds even more open water space and a deeper immersion profile, creating a more resort-style plunge experience without stepping into full-sized pool territory.
Its depth profile, ranging from 1.29m to up to 1.745m in the larger model, gives the Reef a more immersive feel than many shallow plunge pools. Combined with the streamlined side-entry layout and broad open swim zone, the Reef works beautifully alongside modern landscaping, outdoor lounges, decking, and wellness-inspired backyard spaces where comfort and lifestyle matter just as much as aesthetics.

Reef’s Shape & Layout
The Reef features a wide rectangular shell with a highly open interior layout focused on comfort, movement, and social use.
Integrated side-entry steps sit neatly within one corner of the shell, creating easy access while preserving the majority of the pool for open water space. The broad proportions allow multiple people to comfortably relax in the water at the same time without the pool feeling crowded.
Its layout also creates exceptional flexibility. The Reef can function equally well as a plunge pool, family cooling zone, entertaining centrepiece, or wellness-oriented retreat depending on how the surrounding outdoor space is designed.
Who It’s For
The Reef is ideal for homeowners who want a plunge pool that feels noticeably more spacious, social, and luxurious than a standard compact shell.
It is especially suited to:
- Families wanting more room to relax and play together
- Entertaining-focused outdoor spaces
- Homeowners wanting a wider, more resort-style plunge pool aesthetic
- Wellness-inspired backyard designs with decking, saunas, or lounge zones
- Medium-sized suburban blocks where a full-sized pool feels excessive
- Buyers wanting a premium in-water experience without the scale of a traditional swimming pool
Build Quality & Surface
Like every AquaVale shell, the Reef is manufactured using premium multi-layer fibreglass composite engineered specifically for Australian conditions. The shell is designed to remain structurally stable through UV exposure, changing temperatures, and natural ground movement while maintaining long-term durability.
Its smooth gelcoat finish is UV-stable, non-porous, and naturally resistant to algae and mineral build-up. That means less cleaning, lower chemical usage, and easier long-term ownership compared to many traditional pool surfaces.
The Reef’s deeper profile also helps create a cooler, more immersive water experience during summer, making it especially appealing for homeowners prioritising relaxation and refreshment.
Reef’s Benefits
- More room to truly relax: The Reef’s generous 3.5m width creates a noticeably more spacious and social in-water experience than most plunge pools in its class.
- Deep, immersive water feel: With depths up to 1.6m, the Reef delivers full-body immersion that feels genuinely refreshing during hot Australian summers.
- Perfect for entertaining spaces: The wide-open rectangular layout works beautifully alongside alfresco dining areas, decking, outdoor lounges, and landscaped backyard zones.
- Low-maintenance fibreglass construction: The Reef’s smooth gelcoat finish naturally resists algae, staining, and mineral build-up, helping reduce maintenance time and ongoing costs.
- Built for decades of use: Backed by AquaVale’s 30-year structural warranty, the Reef is engineered for long-term strength, reliability, and everyday enjoyment.

Delivery of pool and spa shells is handled differently from standard pool equipment because each shell needs to be produced, scheduled and transported by truck.
Before delivery can take place, your pool or spa shell must first be manufactured. Production lead times can vary, but may be up to 3 weeks, depending on the model, finish, production schedule and seasonal demand.
Once the shell is ready, delivery is arranged by truck to the agreed delivery address. Because of the size and weight of the shell, the delivery must be carefully coordinated in advance.
A standard shell delivery includes up to 1.5 hours on site for unloading and placement coordination. If the truck is required to remain on site for longer than this, additional waiting time will be charged in 15-minute increments.
Additional charges may also apply if delivery is delayed, access is not suitable, the crane is not ready, the site is not prepared, or the shell cannot be unloaded safely at the scheduled time. We will provide delivery details and timing information before dispatch so the client, installer and crane operator can coordinate the site delivery properly.
