Small Lagoons: The New and Innovative Solution for Real Estate and Hotel Projects

Crystal Lagoons has been known for monumental crystalline lagoons. That changes today, as the multinational innovation company introduces the disruptive Small Lagoons concept, featuring lagoons under 1 acre, bringing idyllic beach life to real estate and hotel developments with limited space and/or budget.

In their constant quest for differentiation and added value, residential and hotel project developers face the challenge of incorporating unique amenities without incurring significant costs or compromising sustainability.

In response, Crystal Lagoons introduces Small Lagoons, a revolutionary proposal redefining aquatic amenities in the developments. These lagoons, under 1 acre, offer an idyllic beach experience at a fraction of the cost of a traditional pool, integrating innovation, sustainability, and profitability into a single concept.

A destination anywhere

While pools serve the purpose of refreshing during summer, they don’t provide significant added value. However, Small Lagoons become a destination in themselves by recreating a beach lifestyle. They are turquoise water bodies, surrounded by white sandy beaches and entertainment offerings. From swimming to water sports, they allow every square meter to attract visitors, increasing sales and hotel occupancy, and generating new revenue through lagoon-side activities.

Year-Round Heated Lagoons

Additionally, unlike pools, Small Lagoons can be enjoyed throughout the entire year, not just in summer. This is possible thanks to Crystal Lagoons Eco-Heated Lagoons™ technology, offering a tropical beach experience at 81°F, as well as a thermal beach experience with waters reaching up to 99°F.
