Moroccan zellige, Moorish mosaic, and Spanish colonial tiles crafted for the waterfront estates, private compounds, and resort-style residences of Miami Beach, Coral Gables, Fisher Island, and Palm Beach.
Miami is one of the great pool cities of the world. The outdoor pool is not a luxury here — it is a way of life, an architectural statement, and the social heart of Florida's most distinguished private residences. From the gated waterfront estates of Miami Beach and the grand Mediterranean Revival homes of Coral Gables, to the private island compounds of Fisher Island and the oceanfront mansions of Palm Beach, South Florida's most celebrated pools demand materials that match their ambition.
Handcrafted Moroccan tile is that material. At Mediterranean Pool Tiles, we work directly with master craftsmen in the ancient medina of Fez — artisans who have refined the same kiln-firing, hand-cutting, and hand-glazing techniques across generations. Each tile arrives carrying the mark of the hands that made it: subtle tonal variation, a luminous glaze surface, and the honest irregularity of authentic craft.
Miami's architectural vocabulary — from Art Deco to Mediterranean Revival to contemporary tropical modernism — finds a natural, sophisticated partner in Moroccan zellige, Moorish mosaic, and Spanish colonial ceramics. These are materials with provenance, depth, and a level of visual complexity that no manufactured tile can approach.
How It's MadeWe deliver to the most prestigious addresses in South Florida — from the gated islands of Miami Beach to the grand estates of Palm Beach. Our tiles ship via LTL freight nationwide, and our team provides full project support for homeowners, architects, and pool contractors across the region.
The waterfront estates and private island compounds of Miami Beach represent South Florida's highest tier of residential architecture. Our zellige and mosaic tiles are designed for exactly this level of project — materials that deliver a visual return commensurate with the investment.
George Merrick's Mediterranean Revival masterpiece calls for tile with genuine Mediterranean heritage. Our Spanish colonial and handpainted ceramic collections are architecturally authentic complements to Coral Gables' grand tree-lined estates and historic pool gardens.
The most exclusive zip code in the United States deserves materials of equal distinction. Every tile we supply is made individually to order in Fez — a level of provenance and exclusivity that defines Fisher Island's standard of living.
The grand oceanfront and intracoastal estates of Palm Beach and Boca Raton have long embraced Mediterranean architecture. Our full collection — from zellige waterline tile to terracotta pool deck tile — is specified regularly for projects in these markets.
The lush, private gardens and resort-style pools of Coconut Grove and Pinecrest benefit from tile that connects to the tropical landscape. Our terracotta, zellige, and handpainted collections bring warmth, texture, and artisan character to South Florida's most verdant neighborhoods.
Fort Lauderdale's yacht-lined waterways and Key Biscayne's private island homes share a common need: tile that performs flawlessly in saltwater, high-UV, and tropical humidity conditions. Our entire collection is engineered precisely for this environment.
Selecting pool tile for a South Florida property involves considerations that go well beyond aesthetics. Miami's combination of intense year-round UV exposure, high humidity, saltwater pools, and the corrosive marine environment of coastal locations places specific technical demands on any tile specified for outdoor use.
All tiles in our collection are rigorously rated for pool waterlines, spa walls, and full outdoor exposure in tropical climates. The natural mineral glazes used in Moroccan zellige are UV-stable by composition — they do not fade or chalk under South Florida's relentless sun in the way that synthetic glazed tiles can. Our terracotta tiles are kiln-fired at high temperatures, producing a dense body that resists moisture absorption and withstands the freeze-thaw cycles found in Florida's occasional cold snaps.
From a design perspective, South Florida's diverse architectural vocabulary — Art Deco, Mediterranean Revival, tropical modernism, and the contemporary glass-and-concrete aesthetic of Brickell and Edgewater — all find genuine, sophisticated expression in handcrafted Moroccan tile. The key is in the selection: a sleek contemporary pool may call for a single glaze in a restrained, neutral tone, while a Coral Gables Mediterranean Revival courtyard might suit an intricate Moorish mosaic or a rich cobalt zellige waterline.
Our team is available to advise on collection selection, glaze finishes, and installation approaches for any South Florida project — from a single waterline accent to a complete pool and terrace tile specification.
