Client Comments

Dear Joan,
I wanted to thank you for the extraordinary work you did on designing and physically creating the swimming pool at my home in Nosara, Costa Rica. I have long admired your work and am glad we had the opportunity to finally collaborate together.

The design is exquisite and the execution was completed on time and within budget. And please allow me to say how enjoyable it was to work with you personally. I thoroughly appreciated the integrity of our interaction and the honesty of those you chose to work on the project.
Once again, thank you for creating a true work of art.

Kind personal regards,
Michael Mayzel

“I can heartily recommend Joan Roca as a talented designer and contractor. I met Joan several years ago when he began attending the design and construction courses offered by my educational company, Genesis 3, Inc. After seeing the passion Joan brought to our industry and seeing some of his projects it was clear that he was one of the few in the pool industry that would become a Genesis 3 Platinum Member. Joan Roca is a true artist working with the wonderful medium, water. Please contact me with any questions. Brian Van Bower”
