Glass tiles have become a very popular surfacing for pools, for at least two reasons: 1) glassy surfaces compliment the effect of water, and 2) glass tiles do not fade over time or discolor under normal conditions.
The underlying cement should be cured for at least 28 days, and free of cracks before you begin. Pools are harsh environments because of the chemicals used to keep the water clean; setting materials should be adadptred to these conditions mind. We often recommend the products by Mapei, but defer to your tile manufacturer's specifications.
You will also need waterproofing on the substrate. One reputable manufacturer of roll-on membranes is Schluter. Some membranes also have anti fracture properties, allowing them to buffer against substrate shifts. For wet areas, we generally suggest membranes that have waterproofing as well as anti fracture properties - especially when larger tiles are used. Consult with your tile manufacturer for advice on an installation method that they will stand behind
