Born in New York City, José Miguel Guzmán has always been drawn to the challenge of building something meaningful, whether in business or in life. That drive led him to acquire Classic Pools of Naples in 2025, ushering in an exciting new chapter for a company with over 25 years of trusted service in Southwest Florida. José is committed to honoring the legacy and relationships that have made Classic Pools of Naples a cornerstone of quality in the community, while positioning the business for thoughtful, sustainable growth.
José holds a Bachelor’s degree from the Binghamton University School of Management and a M.B.A. in Finance and Entrepreneurship from The Wharton School. His professional background spans private equity investment and strategic advising, where he has spent years helping businesses scale by strengthening operations, enhancing customer experience, and building long-term value, all without compromising on quality. This expertise allows him to invest in better systems, stronger teams, and improved processes at Classic Pools of Naples, while staying true to the craftsmanship-first approach that sets the company apart from other pool builders in Naples, Florida.
With a strategic mindset rooted in respect for tradition and an eye toward innovation, José brings a unique perspective to the custom luxury pool industry. He believes that growth should never come at the expense of the trust clients place in their builder, and that philosophy guides every decision he makes.
In his spare time, José enjoys spending quality time with his wife and young son, with another child on the way. Family is at the heart of everything he does, both personally and professionally.
