Why Invest in an Airbnb with a Pool?

If you’re considering whether or not to invest in an Airbnb with a pool, just know that it’s one of the best amenities you can offer guests. Adding a quality pool to your short-term rental is a great strategy to turn your short-term rental into a summer vacation destination rather than a stopover. In addition to the fantastic memories they’ll make, your guests will also appreciate having a place to cool off after exploring all that your city has to offer.

What are the Best Pool Supplies for Airbnb with Pools?

While there are endless possibilities when it comes to stocking your Airbnb pool, these items should definitely be on your list:

Robot pool cleaner

A robot pool cleaner is a must for any Airbnb with a pool. It will save you time and energy and show guests that your pool is constantly being cleaned.

Critter escape ramp

As much as we try to avoid it, sometimes critters like frogs make it into our pool. A critter escape ramp is a safe way for them to get themselves out and save your cleaning crew and guests from having to dispose of some unlucky frogs.

Pool gate

For guests traveling with children, it is vital to put up a fence and gate around it to prevent young children from accessing the area. A self-latching gate at least four-feet high is recommended.

Skip ball

Skip Ball is a toy beloved by kids and adults alike! Guests can easily pass the time and make memories playing a game of water catch!

Lounge chairs

Don’t forget to set up some lounge chairs for your guests to relax and tan with.

Wireless floating pool speaker

Let your guests enjoy some tunes while they’re in the pool with a wireless floating pool speaker.

Netted skimmer

A netted skimmer is a must-have for any Airbnb pool. It’s great for removing leaves and other debris from the surface of the water.

Water wings

Providing a few inflatable water wings for children is a nice touch that will show your guests that you’re thinking of their needs.

Pre-swim hair cream

A thoughtful touch to your guest’s welcome basket could be a small sample size of pre-swim hair cream to help them avoid the dreaded “chlorine hair.”

Floats and noodles

These are great for guests of all ages and can be used for lounging, playing games, or even exercising.

Pool games

From basketball hoops to floating chess sets, there are tons of great pool games that will keep your guests entertained.

Beach towels

Make sure to have plenty of beach towels on hand for your guests to use.

Sunscreen

No one wants to get sunburned on vacation, so make sure to have plenty of  trusted sunscreens available for your guests.

AloeVera

Aloe vera is a must-have for any beachfront rental. It can be used to soothe sunburns or bug bites. Be sure to put one of these mini bottles in the welcome basket to show guests you are thinking of them.

Bug spray

Nothing ruins a pool day quite like mosquitoes, so bug spray is a must!
