width of fiberglass pool... struggling

Hello-
We are meeting with pool builders these next few weeks. We love the low maintenance of a fiberglass pool and are leaning towards the Whitsunday which is Barrier Reef's largest pool at a length of 40 feet and width of 16 feet. Of the 16 feet of width, 15 feet and 4 inches is what is actually usable swimming room. We think 20 feet wide would be ideal... but then are committing to a concrete pool as the fiberglass doesnt come that wide. This will be the first pool we have ever owned- neither my husband or I grew up w a pool. We have researched for hours... does anyone have the Whitsunday that can give us insight as to what it "feels" like at that width? Do you wish it was wider or is it just fine?
We want to get it right the first time... We drew it out in the backyard and it looked narrow but one of the PB said it would any pool would be very small looking when drawn out like that even a 20 foot width one.
Any insight at all would be much appreciated!
Thank you.
