“As a Microbiologist and frequent traveller in Asia for many years I have seen the need for swimming pools to undergo a quality rating. Hotel ratings don’t include pools, but pools are one of the most sought attractions in the hospitality industry “ - Dr. Josef Konrad -
“ I am a real fan of swimming pools and even own one. For me, water quality has top priority. I hope this inspirational collection of charming quality pools will inspire you for your next travel ” - Patricia Shunee -
WHO WE ARE
THE 5-STAR SYSTEM
We are publisher of Southeast Asia’s first Swimming Pool & Spa Magazine and organized the first International Pool & Spa Trade Show in Tropical Asia, the POOLASIA EXPO 2011 in Phuket, which was supported by the Government of Thailand and international organizations. Here we awarded ecologically friendly technologies and resorts for their outstanding sustainable design of their pools.
QUALITY YOU CAN COUNT ON!
We discovered it often, the name “luxury resort” does not mean necessarily the pool has quality. Whereas in our portal all published pools are 5-Star rated by an water scientist, regularily inspected and the operators receive training by us. Our members top best pool quality with a wide range of wellness with water features, attractions, outstanding design and luxury.

s
We developed a 5-Star Quality Rating System, “QRS” in order to allow consumers, tourists, investors, architects and especially the operation and management of hotels & resorts to value pool quality. It is scaled from “Safe Pool” for a 1-Star pool to “First Class Quality Pool” for a 5-Star pool, which stands for healthiest water and crystal clear water conditions like in the Alpine region. Allergenic chemical by-products, which are often mutagenic are for example banned here. QRS is based mainly on physical, chemical and hygienic parameters and incorporates national standard of Thailand and as benchmark the world’s most superior swimming pool standards of Switzerland, Austria & Germany. more
