Who makes a great host?

• Homeowners with a well-maintained pool and clear safety rules.
• Families who want to offset pool costs (maintenance, utilities, chemicals, or upgrades).
• Hosts who enjoy meeting neighbors and offering a clean, private alternative to crowded public pools.

Hosting is flexible. Some hosts rent a couple hours on weekends; others open full-day blocks for parties and events. You decide what fits your comfort level.

Simple steps to get started

1. Create your listing: share photos, pool details (size, depth, features), and house rules.
2. Set availability and pricing: choose hourly rates, booking windows, and any minimum booking time.
3. Prepare your space: ensure gates, fences, and safety equipment are visible and in good working order.
4. Welcome guests: confirm bookings, communicate expectations, and manage access during the reservation.

We walk you through every step in the hosting process — see our full How It Works guide for details and best practices.

Safety and rules (host-first guidance)

Safety is the top priority. As a host, you’re in charge of clearly communicating rules and ensuring the space is ready:

• Post or provide a simple rules sheet about supervision, no-glass policy, and maximum capacity.
• Keep life-saving equipment (life ring, reaching pole) near the pool and ensure pool alarms or locks are functional.
• Lock gates when the pool is not in use and secure chemicals out of reach.
• Consider setting a swim-wear or towel policy and specify whether food or alcohol is allowed.

Guests book with the expectation that hosts keep their space safe and clean. Our $2M liability coverage is designed to protect you, but good host practices reduce risk and keep reviews high.

Maximize bookings and earnings

• Use clear, bright photos that show depth markers, steps, and amenities (like a hot tub, shade, or grill).
• Offer short weekend availability for family meetups and longer weekday blocks for parties or photo shoots.
• Price competitively — check other listings in the area on our All Locations page to see what similar pools charge.
• Keep your calendar up to date to avoid double bookings and to improve search placement.

Small touches matter: fresh towels, a clean deck, and a welcome message go a long way toward 5-star reviews.

Fees, insurance, and what we handle

• Host fee: a simple 10% flat fee on bookings. No hidden extras.
• Insurance: each booking includes $2,000,000 in liability coverage for qualifying incidents.
• Platform support: we handle payment processing, guest verification, and customer service so you can focus on hosting.
