💦 Turn Your Pool into an Asset — Not Just a Luxury
You’ve probably never thought of your swimming pool as an income-generating asset.
But we’ll ask you this — why not?
With a little creativity, your backyard can bring joy to others and put money back into your pocket. At Swemgat, we’re excited to help you make it happen!
Below are some useful tips and guidelines to help you rent your pool safely and smartly.
🏊 PRIVATE RENTAL GUIDELINES for Pool Owners
👨👩👧 Supervision
Children must always be supervised by a responsible adult who can swim. Safety first — always.
💪 RATES for Regular Exercise or Swim Training
- R600 to R1 200 for 8 sessions of 60–90 minutes each (ideal for individuals using the pool for therapy, training, or gentle exercise).
- If your pool is heated or indoors, you can confidently charge a bit more.
- Private instructors often pay similar rates but prefer pools 7 m or longer for proper swim training.
(Example: A lady in Potchefstroom recovering from back surgery is looking for a private pool to exercise in — yours might be perfect!)
🎉 RATES for Leisure & Small Group Activities
Think kids’ birthday parties, family gatherings, or a few friends relaxing for the afternoon.
- R250–R400 for a morning, afternoon, or evening session (3–4 hours)
- R400–R1 000 for a full-day session (up to 8 hours)
📝 Clear Limits & House Rules

- Agree on arrival and departure times.
- Set a simple dress code and ask guests to bring their own towels.
- Limit the number of swimmers to suit your pool size.
