Summer is here, and while some Bach party activities are put on hold due to high temperatures, pool parties are in full swing!

Private Pool Parties
If your bachelor or bachelorette party squad is not into crowded places, consider hosting a private pool party right at your vacation rental. No matter where you want to celebrate—at home or in a popular Bach party destination—you’ll surely find a vacation rental with a big pool in the backyard.
You can easily create the right pool party vibe by setting up a cocktail bar, a buffet with finger foods and light bites, filling the pool with pool toys, ordering custom decorations, setting up a photo booth, and making a playlist with your favorite tunes.
Booking entertainers for private pool parties is a popular service now, and you can choose from an array of Bach party packages to maximize the fun and keep the party energy high. Ladies throwing their bestie’s last splash at the rental can book Bad Cabana Boys to come over, pamper and entertain them, pour their drinks, act as their Spotify DJ, and ensure everything goes smoothly.
The version of this pool party service for gents throwing a bachelor party is the Pool Party Girls package. How this works is similar; eye-candy women in bikinis will arrive at the pool party to break the ice and start the party. These professional Pool Party Girls initiate fun party games, act friendly and flirty with the bachelor, and ensure everyone is having fun.
It is a great way to keep everyone entertained and allows you to relax and focus solely on the fun!
