Looks great in pictures, but there’s a lot of issues. Pinterest makes it look great.
If you want real turf/grass, it’s a pain to keep up. Trimming, edging, even growth, etc. This is pretty obvious not to do around a pool.
If you go artificial turf, drainage can be an issue and the turf is definitely unlevel with the surface. It can be near level and minimized, but it’s a lot of work and adjustment to get everything straight. Your pavers would need to be set on concrete to minimize settling. Your contract would need to spend a lot of time to ensure everything is set and leveled, the turf is properly installed and doesn’t risk lifting. It can also be a toe catcher/tripping hazard.
