Steve Griswold breaks down pool chair tactics at resorts, from towel-dropping to butler service. Beaches Turks and Caicos has 11 pools and offers butler cabanas with reserved lounge chairs, coolers, and lunch service, so you don't have to wake up early to claim a spot.

Now when I was a kid, I would be blissfully asleep while my parents were out here trying to get the ultimate pool chairs. Now this video is about the struggle that many parents face when coming on vacation— saving pool chairs. See, now these pool chairs are ready early in the morning are almost all saved. That pool chair saved. That chair saved. That one saved. This is a lizard. Now don't get me wrong, I really enjoy my time going on vacation. I mean, that right there, that's pretty awesome. Now this, this is the way to save pool chairs. Hey Claude, can you tell me about the pool saving strategies?
So the classics are pretty straightforward. People wake up early to claim the best poolside spots, then use all sorts of items to reserve them. Flip-flops, towels, beach bags, sometimes even random things like bananas or snorkels. The whole game is about staking your territory before everyone else wakes up, then heading back to your room or grabbing breakfast while your spot's saved.
Eventually, is it okay to to just go ahead and remove the stuff from the pool chair and in a sense eat the banana. The other dilemma with pool chairs is, do you want to get your chair on the beach or do you want to get it at the pool? When you have a butler room, just tell your butler at a Sandals or Beaches to go out and reserve pool chairs, beach chairs, or a cabana. So if you do get up early in the morning, you'll see them out there with their carts getting all the cabanas ready and getting all the pool chairs ready, bringing drinks, setting up birthday celebrations to take care of everything for you.
Good morning.
What comes with the Butler Cabana?
All right, so this is a much more like preview one.
Oh, nice. So you get what, lounge chairs, towels?
Definitely. Also have your cooler right here, stuff as well.
Oh, you got your cooler, you got it all reserved. Yeah, man, beautiful. And then they bring you lunch, maybe lunch as well, lunch, whatever you need, whatever you need, whatever you want. So as you can tell, picking the right resort is key. And I love beaches. I mean, I'm always at beaches, and Turks and Caicos is my favorite. Uh, if you can't tell, it's lunchtime and there's still tons of open beach chairs. There's 11 swimming pools, so there are loads of lounge chairs also available. And there's also a water park. So the water park is great for families. And even midday, still lots of places. So again, picking the right resort is key because we've all been to those resorts where you have to wake up at 5, 6:00 AM or you're not finding a lounge chair. Not so at Beaches Turks and Caicos. So get out there and have a fantastic vacation.
