Is $8,000 to build a gunite pool a fair price?

Project Details

I am from Brazil and am evaluating different pool options. I can afford all of these, but I want to avoid wasting money or constantly fixing the pool. There are many variables, and I am trying to decide between a beautiful, luxurious but pricey option and a cheaper, fair-priced one.

Quote Details

This option is for a gunite pool, estimated to be 6 meters by 3 meters. According to fiberglass pool providers, gunite pools are described as slow to build and may present future issues. - Construction Type: Gunite- Dimensions: 6 meters x 3 meters- Potential Issues (as described by competitors): Slow construction, risk of water escaping in a few years, tiles falling, susceptibility to floor movements
