Rent your Ojai pool by the hour. Earn $2,400–$5,400+/mo.

Welcome, Ojai pool owners

If you own a private pool in Ojai, CA, you’re sitting on one of the area’s most valuable and underused assets. Becoming a swimming pool host on our marketplace lets you earn by the hour while keeping control over your schedule, guests, and house rules. We designed the platform for hosts first: simple setup, transparent fees, and built-in protection so you can host confidently.

Why host your Ojai pool?

• Earn reliable, local income — Ojai’s outdoor lifestyle and short-term visitor demand make hourly pool rentals attractive year-round.
• Keep full control — you decide availability, pricing, guest capacity, and rules.
• Low friction — we handle bookings, secure payments, and host support so you focus on your guests.

We charge a simple 10% flat host fee and include $2M in liability insurance for every booking, so you can host with peace of mind.

How much can you earn?

Earnings vary by pool type, size, amenities, and hours listed. A typical Ojai backyard pool can earn several hundred dollars for a single afternoon booking, and hosts commonly bring in consistent monthly supplemental income by listing a few weekend blocks.

Safety, insurance, and guest screening

Safety is our priority. Every booking includes $2M liability insurance, and we provide tools to set clear rules (no diving, children must be supervised, guest limits). You can require identity verification for guests and approve or deny requests.

We recommend these host practices:

• Post simple, visible pool rules and emergency contact info.
• Keep lifesaving equipment accessible (life ring, shepherd’s hook) and a first-aid kit nearby.
• Maintain routine water quality checks and routine cleaning before bookings.

Tips to make your listing stand out

• High-quality photos: natural light and wide shots showing the whole yard and pool make a big difference.
• Highlight amenities: BBQs, shade structures, outdoor seating, changing areas, and parking increase booking value.
• Offer thoughtful touches: pool floats, towels, and bottled water elevate the guest experience and justify higher rates.
• Communicate expectations clearly in your description to minimize issues and earn better reviews.
