FAQ:
Whose pool is this?
-This is a rented pool! It belongs to someone who I am renting through Swimply.com
How can I make sure this is a safe pool?
-Yes, safety is the number one concern which I also take very heavily. I have rented this pool in the past and the pictures you see on this page are all ladies who joined us at this pool
Will I be able to shower after pool time?
-Unfortunately no. Since this is not my pool and because it's limited-time rent, showering will need to be done at home.
