Who We Are

Where Arkansas Backyards Become Private Resorts

Elite Pools by Aloha has been building inground pools for Central Arkansas families since 1978, long enough to know exactly what our soil, our summers and our winters do to a pool.

We build one thing: luxury vinyl liner pools. That focus is the point. Instead of spreading across every construction type, our crews build the same product every week, which is why our sun shelves sit level, our vinyl steps look built-in rather than added on, and our liners go in clean.

Serving Central Arkansas Since 1978

What We Build

Custom Vinyl Pools & Features

From the first shovel to the final walkthrough, we handle design, excavation, plumbing and finish work in-house, and every one of them is a vinyl liner pool.

New Custom Vinyl Pools

Fully custom inground vinyl pools designed around your yard, your grade and how your family actually uses a backyard, not a catalog shape dropped in a hole.

  • L-shape, rectangle & curved lagoon designs

Shelves, Steps & Water Features

The details that separate a luxury vinyl pool from a basic one. All of it built into the structure during construction, not bolted on afterward.

  • Sun shelves & side shelves
  • Vinyl-over-composite steps
  • Shear descents, deck jets & slides

Liner Replacement

A fresh liner is the fastest way to make an aging vinyl pool look new again. Every liner is measured, fabricated and installed by our own crew.

  • Precision-measured custom liners
  • Wide range of patterns & finishes
  • Vinyl pools only, not a full renovation service

Vinyl is our specialty, and our only one. We do not build gunite or fiberglass pools, and we do not take on outdoor kitchens, fire features or full pool renovations.

How It Works

Building A Pool In Central Arkansas

From the whole process to the day you swim.

  1. Initial Meeting

    We sit down with you, with no pressure and no hard close, to understand how you want to use the space and where your budget needs to land.

  2. On-Site Design Walkthrough

    We come to your yard and mark it out on the ground, so you can stand in the actual footprint before anything is committed.

  3. Design & Firm Proposal

    You get the final shape and features laid out with a firm number attached, every line itemized.

  4. Contract & Permitting

    We sign, we schedule, and we handle the permits and inspections your city or county requires.

  5. Build & Construction

    Excavation, composite wall set and brace, plumbing, concrete, coping, liner, then equipment start-up.

  6. Water & Final Walkthrough

    We fill it, balance it, and walk you through running your pool. We do not leave until you are comfortable.

Financing

Financing Your Pool

Most of our clients finance. We work with lenders who specialize in pool projects, which means terms built around a construction timeline.

Also Recommended

VistaFi

Our long-time lending partner, built specifically for pool and backyard projects with fast pre-qualification.

Additional Option

Lyon Financial

Long-standing pool lender with competitive rates. A solid option if you are rate-shopping.

Additional Option

HFS Financial

Another lender we can point you to if the first two are not the right fit.

Elite Pools by Aloha is a pool builder, not a lender. All financing is arranged directly between you and the lender, and approval, rates and terms are set by them. We are happy to make the introduction and answer questions about how payments line up with the build schedule.

Where We Build

Serving Central Arkansas, And Then Some

We are based in Central Arkansas and build throughout the region -- the whole Little Rock metro, the I-40 corridor and the lake communities to the north.

Outside the radius? Still call us. We regularly travel well past this list for the right project.

Answers

Frequently Asked Questions

The questions Arkansas homeowners ask us most about vinyl, cost, timeline and permits.

Why choose a vinyl liner pool?

Vinyl gives you the most custom shape for the money, a smooth surface that is easy on feet and swimsuits, and a finish you can refresh later with a new liner instead of a full resurface. Vinyl is the only type of pool we build.

How much does an inground pool cost?

It depends on size, shape and features far more than most people expect. We give you a firm, itemized number at your on-site design walkthrough. Call (501) 758-7665 and we can talk ballpark on the phone.

How long does it take to build?

From breaking ground to swimming, most of our vinyl pools run a matter of weeks rather than months. Vinyl construction moves faster than gunite because there is no long cure time.

Can I finance my new pool?

Yes, and most of our clients do. We work with Hearth, VistaFi, Lyon Financial and HFS. Getting pre-qualified early is worth doing because it tells us what to design toward.

What features can I add to a vinyl pool?

Sun shelves, side shelves, vinyl-over-composite steps, shear descents, pool deck jets, slides, LED lighting, heaters and stamped concrete.

Do I need a permit to build a pool?

In most Central Arkansas cities and counties, yes. We handle the permitting and inspections as part of the build, including HOA submittals where they apply.

How long does a vinyl liner last?

With normal use and balanced water, expect many years of service. When that day comes, a new liner is a straightforward job and an easy way to make the whole pool feel new.

What areas do you build in?

We cover the Little Rock metro, the I-40 corridor and the lake and Hot Springs communities, roughly a 90-minute radius. We go further for the right project -- just ask.

These guys did a great job building our pool! Not only was the finished product beautiful- but the work was done quickly! Start to finish- easy process! Spencer kept us updated along the way and helped us make decisions. Ivan did a great job on the concrete and was patient with us when trying to decide final measurements. Roy did a great job teaching us about our smart pool and continues to answer questions weeks later. We would highly recommended Elite Pools by Aloha!

We couldn’t be happier with our pool build experience! From start to finish, everything has gone smoothly, and a huge part of that is thanks to Spencer. He has been absolutely amazing throughout the entire process. Spencer has always been available whenever we’ve had questions or needed guidance, no matter how big or small. It’s rare to find someone so responsive, knowledgeable, and genuinely committed to making sure their customers feel comfortable and taken care of. We did have a small issue with a rip in the liner, but their team handled it immediately and professionally. They came out right away, took care of the situation, and replaced it without any hassle. That level of customer service really gave us peace of mind. Building a pool can be stressful, but Spencer made it easy and enjoyable for us. His communication, professionalism, and dedication truly set him apart. We’re so grateful to have had him as our sales rep and would highly recommend him to anyone considering a pool project! Just a few more weeks after electrical and concrete and we will be all set💕

We couldn’t be happier with our pool!! The whole crew was amazing Daniel, Rob , Scott and Michael. It took Aloha Pools about 2 months from start to finish, and they would’ve been finished sooner if the weather had of cooperated. It turned out better than our expectations Not only were they all great during the building process, If I ever have any questions or anything, they are always there to take my call. If you are looking for a pool builder in Central Arkansas you can't do better than Elite/Aloha Pools

Elite pools installed our pool 4 years ago and I couldn’t be happier with the pool. It has become the place where our friends and family hang out. Just as important they have just been a phone call away to answer any questions that I have!

Scott and his team are by far the best pool company out there! From my personal pool, my family’s pools and my clients pools always on time, on budget and stand behind what they say and do. Mike Wallace Mallard Contractors
