We rarely use the hotel sunloungers as we prefer the beach but I think we would choose not to go to an hotel that was going to charge for their use.I thought they are included in the price of the holiday.T.

I've never been to a hotel that charges for use of sunloungers within the hotel grounds and if I knew that before booking somewhere, I'd probably choose somewhere else. It's rather cheeky to ask you to pay for the sunlounger when you're staying at their hotel.

I suggest you name the hotels / apartments, then the people on the
forum can sway away from these places.

There was an article in a newspaper last week about this because hotels are fed up with people putting towels down on the loungers at stupid times of the morning and not using them straight away.
I actually dont blame them.
I was in Menorca last week and there were very sad little people (you know who ur) who were doing this - mainly the men and no-one using these for a few hours. These people must have sad little lives and its affecting other holidaymakers.
If this is all people can think about before going to bed, well, like I said, sad :tongue

Why name them? people should stop putting towels down full stop

I once stayed in a hotel where they had a sunbed allocation system. There were 2 sunbeds allocated to a particular room with a number on them. That worked pretty well as firstly it made sure there were enough to go around and secondly, there was no need to reserve them as they were allocated to you. Sunbeds are always an issue at hotels so I agree with having a ssytem in place to stop the towels at dawn race, but I don't agree with charging for them when it's a hotel. There are other allocation systems that work just as well.

I don't agree with charging for hotel sun loungers either. I also think hotels should have a policy about not reserving them with towels and the hotel staff should remove the towels if people leave them there and don't use the beds.

Sunbed allocation is a good idea but I'm sure you would get some people who would sneak down early to shift the beds into the best position :really , probably the same people who lay their towels out!

What I said was name the hotels /apartments who are charging for sun beds,
then people would not stay in them.
I am totally against people putting towels on sun-beds,then not using for hours.
But the topic is hotel/apartments charging for sunbeds.
Nothing to do with towels on beds in a morning.

I was charged for sunbeds once in Tunisia, I thought that it was standard practice there.
But no way in Turkey.
Sunbeds on the beach at Calis are now charged.

The hotel we have stayed at in Gumbet is right on the beach and anyone can wander in and use the sunbeds.
Fortunately we had no problem getting a sunbed as we go in May but I have read of problems for guests staying there in busier weeks.
The hotel may be charging next year but only for non residents.
