Getting your pool ready — quick checklist

3. Photos that sell: Upload 8–12 bright, well-composed photos—show the pool from multiple angles, seating, and any special features.
4. Accurate calendar and pricing: Sync your availability and set pricing for peak and off-peak times.

Safety and guest expectations

• Decide whether to require a lifeguard for larger groups or events.
• Clearly communicate pool rules and emergency procedures in your listing and pre-book messages.
