Building a pool in Arta and Cala Ratjada
Around Arta the typical project is a finca pool on rural land: big plots, open views towards the Llevant hills and space for a full size pool. As everywhere in the countryside, water supply, power and machine access along farm tracks should be confirmed before the design is fixed.
In Cala Ratjada and along the coast towards Cala Agulla and Font de Sa Cala, plots are villa sized and the ground often turns rocky near the shore. Excavation in rock is a normal line item there, and sea air makes corrosion resistant equipment a sensible choice.
The north east attracts a strong mix of German and other international owners, many of whom rent out in high season, so low maintenance filtration, covers and safety features appear in most briefs our network receives here.

Pool permits: Arta and Capdepera town halls
This corner of the island spans two municipalities: Arta town and its countryside fall under the Ajuntament de Arta, while Cala Ratjada belongs to the municipality of Capdepera. In both cases a pool needs a licencia de obras, typically granted within one to three months, plus the ICIO construction tax of around 3-4 percent.
Rural land around Arta is largely rustic and parts of the Llevant peninsula are protected, so stricter Balearic rules can apply. Confirm the planning status of your plot with the relevant town hall before commissioning a design.
