I live in Honolulu and was just going to ask a similar question so thank you for this thread. I have a pool that either needs replastering or tiling. Everyone says to tile as it will last longer. Do you have any other pros or cons? How was the cost factor between the two? I have read this board and hear about "tiles falling off" - are there warrenties?

Also on another subject - any comments on type oif decking? Right now my pool is one big concrete slab around it - would like to change that as well.
