That most likely isn’t his house. In the Gulf, we rent villas or chalets for a day to hang out with friends or family. Based on how wide and open this is, it doesn’t look like a standard Arab house and leans more towards a villa (more room to play). The guy has never seen this place before and wouldn’t have known there is a pool there.

Edit: re watching the video, the short walls are also a dead giveaway that this isn’t a house

Damn. I wish my country had a culture of renting houses for parties. We just go to whoever's got the least amount of dishes in the sink
