Natural Swimming Pools & Biopools in Portugal

Design-led, chemical-free natural pools shaped by land, architecture and ecology.

Custom Natural Pools & Water Landscapes

Aqua Vitae designs and builds custom natural swimming pools, biopools, and water landscapes across Portugal.

Our award-winning work spans modern, naturalistic, and hybrid systems, each shaped by the character of the land, surrounding architecture, and local ecology rather than a fixed construction template. Design leads every project, with filtration, circulation, and biological systems carefully adapted to support the intended aesthetic and long-term balance.

Every pool is tailored to its setting—never repeated, never imposed—whether the goal is a refined architectural pool, a fully natural swimming environment, or something in between.

We provide complete end-to-end support — consultation, design, construction, and customized supply — across:

Reconnect with nature through artfully designed landscapes that celebrate the wild beauty of the natural world. Our naturescapes combine native plants, stone, water, and earth to create immersive, low-maintenance environments that evolve with the seasons.

Whether it's a serene woodland garden, a vibrant pollinator haven, or a peaceful retreat beside your bio pool, each space is thoughtfully designed to enhance biodiversity, support local ecosystems, and bring enduring tranquility to your daily life.

Nature-scapes

We design with nature, not against it. Our regenerative approach goes beyond sustainability restoring ecosystems, improving soil health, and enhancing water cycles while creating beautiful, functional outdoor spaces.

By integrating natural materials, passive systems, and native ecology, we craft environments that regenerate themselves over time. The result is a resilient, low-impact landscape that gives back more than it takes—both to the environment and to you.

We create siteplans, 3D plans and full color renders.
