Here is a page with all the information you need, including a free DIY guide to building building a natural swimming pool. You can see some really nice examples of pools on that page as well.

Yes I saw that but I did see details of pump placement and such I will look it again. Thx

I hope it works out Beatriz, that's just a general guide page and we don't build them ourselves, so we can't help much more with technical guidance unfortunately.
