I think you may be narrowing your selection of interested buyers by adding all the amenities. Many people don't want to deal with a swimming pool, a jacuzzi or a sauna. It would be better to suggest to potential buyers that "this area would be perfect for a (pool, sauna, jacuzzi, etc) instead of actually building one. They might have other ideas. People with small kids may be fearful of having a pool.
A BBQ pit is a good idea, and so is a basketball court if it doesn't take up too much room, since there's little upkeep involved.

It's a 50/50 chance - outdoor improvements bring the lowest return aside from basic clearing and stylish furnishings - the biggest impact in resale with be the kitchen, bath and closets in that order. As long as the yard is clean and it looks like they can make changes easily buyers don't pay much attention - the things they look at are the living spaces. Remove personal decor and make the spaces look as large as possible - renting storage may be the more cost effective option. Good Luck!

It won't make your house more sellable. In fact, the things you mention, especially a swimming pool, make a house less attractive. Young families don't want the danger of a pool, and older people don't want the maintenance.
The things people look for most are kitchens and bathrooms. If it were me, and I was selling, I wouldn't sink a bunch of money in the house. Clean it up, so, it's attractive to sell, which doesn't take a major addition.

I think it would be what they buyer wants that determines how well your house will sell. I think a putting green and a jacuzzi would probably sell faster.

No, none of those improvements will add to the value of the house. They will make it harder to sell in fact because they will require a buyer to either want those amenities or one willing to remove them.
