Choosing between a vinyl liner pool and a gunite pool depends on a variety of factors, such as budget, durability, design flexibility, and maintenance requirements. A vinyl liner pool is typically less expensive to install than a gunite pool, but it may require more maintenance over time, as the liner can be susceptible to tears, leaks, and fading. In contrast, a gunite pool can be more expensive to install, but it offers greater durability and customization options in terms of size, shape, and features, as well as a longer lifespan. Additionally, a gunite pool may require less maintenance over time, as it is less susceptible to damage and fading than a vinyl liner. When choosing between a vinyl liner pool and a gunite pool, it is important to consider your budget, design preferences, and long-term maintenance needs, as well as the advice of a qualified pool contractor who can help you evaluate the pros and cons of each type of pool and make an informed decision.

Is a gunite pool or vinyl liner pool better?
Gunite is a type of cement mix used in the walls of the pool, whereas a vinyl lining is just a layer on the walls, generally used for waterproofing purposes. So, either of them will do, but my personal opinion is that using a lining is always better (hence vinyl lined pools are very common in England and other countries)
Is a gunite pool better than a vinyl lined pool?
All day long. Concrete pools have real tile instead of the fake liner tile look. You can update a concrete pool later on as styles change: with vinyl it's final.

Gunite is covered with plaster. It is sprayed on concrete sorta. They mix it in the hoses and it is blown on. You can go to youtube and see them gunite a pool. I am only aware of plaster, vinyl or painted pool surfaces. The vinyl is just like thin rubber.
