Ave Maria is one of Southwest Florida's most distinctive planned communities — a thoughtfully designed town built around Ave Maria University, with wide residential streets, preserve-bordered lots, and a lifestyle that combines the character of a small town with access to everything the Naples and SWFL corridor offers. Homeowners here chose Ave Maria deliberately, and they bring the same intentionality to how they design their homes and outdoor spaces.
A custom pool in Ave Maria is a backyard commitment that reflects the community's character: considered design, quality materials, and an outdoor living environment built around the Florida lifestyle. Spiro Custom Pools approaches every Ave Maria project that way — starting with your lot, your home's architecture, and your vision, then designing something that belongs there specifically rather than dropped in from a generic catalog.
Spiro serves Collier County from our Fort Myers base, and our team has built custom gunite pools throughout the Naples market and surrounding communities including Ave Maria. We understand Collier County permitting, the HOA architectural review process in Ave Maria's residential sections, and the engineering considerations specific to Collier County's soil profile and water table.
Call, text, or email to schedule your free design consultation. We'll come to your Ave Maria property, walk the lot, and design a fully custom plan built around your backyard and your vision.

An internationally recognized honor for pool design and construction excellence — the kind of recognition Ave Maria homeowners should expect from the builder they choose for a significant backyard investment.

Founder Jeffrey Spiro, Jr. built this company on one promise: no cookie-cutter pools. Every Ave Maria build starts with your property and your vision.

Ave Maria's residential lots are sized for the kind of backyard that deserves a real pool. Single-family neighborhoods throughout the community — from Del Webb Ave Maria to Maple Ridge to Coquina — have the square footage and the architectural character that pairs well with a custom gunite pool and outdoor living environment.
Spiro builds exclusively with gunite/shotcrete — the permanent concrete construction method that offers total design freedom and structural performance that fiberglass simply can't match.
Ave Maria has been an active residential community since 2007, which means its earlier homes — particularly those in the original Del Webb sections and early single-family phases — may have pools approaching 15–20 years old. Aging plaster, outdated single-speed pumps, worn coping, and equipment that predates modern automation and saltwater technology are all common in pools of that vintage.
Spiro's renovation team handles everything from a targeted equipment upgrade to a comprehensive pool transformation, bringing the same award-winning standard to renovation work as we do to new builds.
Year-round pool ownership in Southwest Florida means year-round chemistry management, equipment monitoring, and seasonal care. Ave Maria's humid subtropical climate creates sustained algae pressure through the rainy season and equipment stress from heat and UV exposure. Consistent, qualified service keeps your pool performing at its best.
Award-winning custom gunite pools designed and built across Southwest Florida — the standard we bring to every Ave Maria project.
Real reviews from Southwest Florida homeowners who trusted Spiro Custom Pools with their build.
HOA and architectural review is an important first step for any pool project in Ave Maria. The community's master-planned structure means residential areas fall under HOA governance, with architectural review requirements that must be satisfied before Collier County permits are issued. Spiro manages all HOA documentation, design submissions, and approval coordination as a standard part of every Ave Maria project.
Collier County permitting governs all Ave Maria pool construction. Permits require engineering plans, setback compliance documentation, and multi-stage inspections through Collier County Growth Management. Spiro handles all permit submissions, engineer-of-record coordination, and inspection scheduling from start to finish.
Soil and drainage in the Ave Maria area reflects Collier County's general profile — sandy, well-draining soil in the upland areas of the community, with water table considerations in lower-lying sections. Proper drainage design around the pool and deck prevents long-term issues with shifting and water intrusion. Spiro engineers all drainage as part of the standard design process.
Pool construction in Ave Maria typically runs 10–14 weeks from contract to completion. HOA review and Collier County permitting are the primary pre-construction variables.
Ave Maria's residents chose the community for a reason — a quality of life that combines small-town character, family-friendly infrastructure, and access to Southwest Florida's climate and amenities. A custom pool is a direct extension of that lifestyle choice. The community's continued growth — with active development in Del Webb Ave Maria, Maple Ridge, Coquina, and newer sections — means an expanding homeowner base with disposable income and an interest in backyard quality of life.
A transparent, managed process from first consultation to handover — with HOA coordination, Collier County permitting, and fully custom design throughout.
