Spain Family Resort Swimming Pool Lighting Project

Spain Family Resort Swimming Pool Lighting Project

This project showcases Cyangourd Lighting’s LED swimming pool lighting solution for a coastal family resort in Spain. The client wanted a safer, more attractive swimming pool with lights that could support both daytime family activities and evening events. By replacing outdated halogen fixtures with high-efficiency RGB LED pool lights, the resort now enjoys vivid nighttime ambience, improved guest safety and lower electricity costs.

Project Background – Coastal Family Resort in Spain

The resort is located on Spain’s Mediterranean coast and features a large free-form main pool, a shallow children’s splash area and decorative fountains, similar to the scene shown in the project photos. The original 300 W halogen fittings had several problems: uneven brightness, frequent lamp failures during peak season, high power consumption and visible glare for guests relaxing on the pool deck. Management wanted to upgrade to a reliable LED swimming pool lights system that could deliver consistent color, work with an existing 12 V transformer network and withstand saline coastal air.

Client Goals & Key Requirements

During the initial on-site survey, the resort’s engineering team highlighted four main objectives:

• Create a bright but comfortable lighting environment for evening swimming and poolside dining.
• Use RGB LED swimming pool light effects to support themed nights and family activities.
• Replace halogen systems with low-voltage, IP68 waterproof LED fixtures to reduce maintenance.
• Choose a solution from a professional wholesale LED swimming pool light manufacturer that could provide long-term technical support.

Lighting Solution by Cyangourd Lighting

Based on the pool layout and existing cable routes, Cyangourd recommended a mix of wall-mounted and nicheless LED pool light fixtures powered by safe 12 V low-voltage drivers. The final design used a total of 46 luminaires:

• 30 pcs 18 W RGB wall-mounted LED swimming pool lights for the main free-form pool.
• 10 pcs 12 W RGBW fixtures to highlight the children’s play area and water slides.
• 6 pcs 15 W cool-white projectors to accent the central island, steps and water features.

All fixtures are built with high-brightness SMD LED chips (up to 100 lm/W), thickened PC lenses and anti-corrosion housings suitable for outdoor coastal use. The lights are rated IP68 waterproof and designed for continuous immersion, ensuring long-term safety and stability in chlorinated water.

Control System – RGB Color Changing & Scene Presets

To meet the marketing team’s request for flexible ambience, Cyangourd supplied a centralized control system combining DMX decoding with an intuitive touch panel. The RGB LED pool lights can operate in static colors for normal operation, or be switched to dynamic scenes such as gradual color fades and synchronized chase effects during weekend events.

For daily operation, presets were created for “Family Evening”, “Pool Party” and “Quiet Spa Mode”. Each preset adjusts brightness and color temperature around the main pool, kids’ area and surrounding fountains, making it easy for staff to change the atmosphere in seconds without reprogramming individual fixtures.

Installation & Engineering Details

The resort wanted minimal downtime, so the upgrade was scheduled during a low-occupancy period. Cyangourd’s engineering partners re-used many of the existing conduits and 12 V transformers, reducing civil work and overall cost. Old halogen fittings were removed, niches were cleaned and tested, and new LED swimming pool lights were installed using stainless-steel screws and marine-grade cable glands.

Before reopening the pool, the team performed a full system check: insulation resistance tests, IP68 submersion verification, controller addressing, RGB synchronization and night-time aiming. Detailed documentation and wiring diagrams were handed over to the resort’s maintenance department for future reference.

Final Lighting Effect & Guest Feedback

After the upgrade, the Spain resort reported a significant improvement in the night-time appearance of the pool area. Water surfaces now glow with uniform blue and turquoise tones, while the children’s play zone uses warmer RGB scenes to create a fun, theme-park-style atmosphere, just like the project photos. Guests highlighted the new lighting in online reviews, mentioning better visibility in the water and a more “luxury” feeling around the deck and lounge areas.

From an operational perspective, power consumption for pool lighting dropped by more than 60% compared with the previous halogen system. Maintenance calls related to lamp failures have almost disappeared, and the engineering team can adjust schedules and scenes directly from the controller without entering the pump room.
