Manjusha Tangirala Pool Safety Measures for My Airbnb Rental in Escondido, CA

Thank you in advance for sharing your knowledge and helping me create a safe and enjoyable experience for my Airbnb guests.Thanks in Advance I just finished building a pool that will be used by STR guests when I go to the mountains each winter. 1. fencing is around the entire property with gaps no larger than 4" 2. each gate has hardware above 56" and the gates swing out from the pool so a kid can't accidentally work the hardware and get into the pool area. 3. we flipped the screen doors to open INTO the house areas and raised the hardware above 56" 4. we will add a baby gate at the bottom of the stairs from the house to the pool since the screen door at the top of the stairs has a dog door that a kid could crawl out of. 5. make sure your liability insurance covers the pool and guests on your STR home policy  You can't plan for every possible outcome but as long as you have every code required safety mechanism in place and you're covered by insurance you do mitigate your risk.
