Easy-care outdoor living in Cresswind Palm Beach at Westlake
A pool should feel like an invitation, not a chore. For many homeowners in Cresswind Palm Beach at Westlake, that means a backyard built around comfort: easy ways into the water, a shallow place to sit, and shade right where you want it.
Cliff's Pools & Patios has been family-owned since 1986. We design for everyday use: a gentle entry, a sun shelf for a lounge chair or a cool-down, and a patio that stays pleasant in afternoon heat.
Easy care matters just as much. Smart equipment and simple layouts keep weekly upkeep light, so more of your time goes to enjoying the water.

Designing for Westlake weather and yards
Sun in Westlake, FL is strong and the humidity is real, so comfort starts with shade and smart materials. We help you place a pergola or covered roof where it cools your seating area, and choose surfaces that feel good underfoot.
Heavy summer rain makes drainage a priority, so we plan decks, pavers and the pool to shed water well. Hurricane season is part of life here too, so we talk through securing equipment and building covered structures to code.
For upkeep, you can choose between a salt-free system and a saltwater system, and we explain the trade-offs plainly. Energy-efficient pumps and heaters help keep day-to-day running costs in check.
HOA review and permits
Many planned communities require architectural review approval before exterior work begins. If you own one of the homes in Cresswind Palm Beach at Westlake, check your own community documents to see what applies to pools, pavers, pergolas and turf.
Cliff's prepares the drawings, site plan and material details you need for a submission, so you are not starting from scratch. Approval decisions stay with your association.
On permits, we pull them with the building department that has jurisdiction for your address, whether that is the municipality or Palm Beach County.
From first visit to final walkthrough
It starts with a free in-home consultation. We walk your yard, listen to how you want to use it, and talk through entries, shelves, shade and upkeep.
Next you receive a written estimate and design drawings. Financing options are available, and we prepare your submission materials and handle permits once the plans are set.
Then we build and keep you informed. At the final walkthrough we show you how the equipment works and how to care for your new space. You are also welcome to visit our Oakland Park showroom to see materials.
