How it started

One bounce house. One big idea.

Founder Robert De Los Santos jumping beside an inflatable, from his Entrepreneur Magazine feature
Robert De Los Santos in his Entrepreneur Magazine feature.

The idea found me at a birthday party, where a single bounce house turned an ordinary backyard into the best day of the year for my niece and nephew. I spent everything I had on my first bounce house and set out to make the phone ring.

What came next is still the reason we're different. Early on, we made sure every inflatable was spotless and listed with tons of photos, video, exact sizes and dimensions, and, most importantly, online booking in under five minutes. Then came 360° video, augmented reality to stand a bounce house up in your own yard, safety videos, and software to run the crew. If it made a family's day easier or safer, we built it. Then came water slides, and in the Texas heat, they took off. By year three, we'd grown enough to catch the eye of Entrepreneur Magazine.

But the thing that changed this company wasn't a better website or a bigger warehouse. It was what happened at home.

Why we really do this

Then I met Maria, and two little girls changed everything.

I met my wife, Maria De Los Santos, while we were both at UH's Wolff Center for Entrepreneurship. She became an attorney and helped grow the company while working in corporate law.

Then came our daughters, Susy and Veronica, and everything came into focus. They're our toughest critics, and they shaped what this company became: nobody remembers the inflatable, they remember the day. We're not in the bounce house business, we're in the childhood business, and we plan for your kids the way we plan for our own.

"My daughters think I go to work every day just to jump on inflatables. On the best days, they're not entirely wrong."

Maria De Los Santos, DO, JDAnd after our daughters were born, Maria chased a dream of her own and became a physician too. Now a DO and a JD, she brings a doctor's conviction to the center of what we do: active, screen-free play isn't a luxury, it's how healthy, confident kids get built. More about Maria →

That's the whole company now, and that same belief runs through everyone who works here.

Our founders' daughters, our toughest critics, and the whole reason we do this. If a bounce house earns their thumbs-up, it's ready for your party.

Our promise to you

Clean. Safe. Fun. On time.

Four words are printed on the back of every crew shirt, because they're the four things that actually matter on party day: spotless equipment, a safe setup, a great time, and a truck that shows up exactly when we said it would.

"Better today, not as good as tomorrow."

Why it matters who you book

When you book Sky High Party Rentals, the good goes further.

You have a hundred choices for a bounce house. Here's what most of them can't say: your celebration helps power a multi-million-dollar family company that pours it right back into its kids-health mission, its people, and its community.

Built by a family, for families

Founded by a second-generation, Latino-owned family, run alongside Maria, and grounded by our own two daughters. We plan for your kids the way we plan for ours.

Active play is kids' health

With a physician at the table, we treat movement as more than fun. In a screen-heavy world, our inflatables are active health infrastructure for your community, not just entertainment.

A job that becomes a launchpad

We hire college students and interns and teach them how to actually run a business, from EOS/Traction goal-setting to marketing, finance, and operations. For a lot of them, Sky High Party Rentals is where they learn to build.

Learning to scale, so we can lift more people

Our founder is in a Stanford-taught scaling program for Latino entrepreneurs (with the Latino Business Action Network) aimed at growing companies to $100 million, and everything he learns comes straight back to the team. The dream was never just a bigger bounce-house company. It's inspiring the next generation of Latino founders coming up behind us.

  • The delivery crew was awesome! It was a flawless drop off, but the pick up was difficult because it was raining very hard and the guys were soaking wet! They had to fold up the waterslide and step into high water to retrieve their equipment but they never complained about it. They were prompt, professional and very cordial. I have used Sky High many times, and this is the first time that I tipped for drop off AND pick up. These guys were the best!

Common questions

How long is the rental?

The base price covers up to 4 hours. You can keep most rentals up to 7 days for an added fee, and for the best overnight rate, just set your end time to 8am the next day.

How do you clean the equipment?

Every unit is vacuumed, scrubbed with soap and water, and disinfected with EPA-approved cleaners after every single rental, with extra attention to netting, entrances, and climbing steps.

What happens if it rains?

Our weather policy is flexible: you can cancel right up until our drivers arrive without losing your deposit, and we'll issue store credit that never expires. You're always covered.

How much space do I need?

Standard bounce houses are 13x13 to 15x15 ft and need about 17-20 ft of space including clearance, plus a gate at least 3.5 ft wide. Every product page lists exact dimensions, and our AR tool lets you preview it in your own yard.

Do I need power, and are you insured?

Most units need 1-2 standard outlets within 50 ft (we bring the extension cords), or a generator we can rent you for parks. And yes, we're fully insured and provide certificates of insurance for venues and parks.
