Man mocked for wearing running gear to reserve lounger in major ‘sun bed wars’

Sunbed wars are a very specific problem that generally affects Brits while on holiday. Unless hotels ban reserving sun loungers many of us don’t get a sleep in as we have to get up early to get a spot.

Well, one bloke who woke up early to reserve his favourite spots was mocked for his approach to the issue. The man, seen in a TikTok video, was giggled at because he wore his running gear to the pool for his dash to the sun beds.

The holidaymaker was at a Spanish resort when a fellow tourist mocked him for wearing his exercise clothes to bag a seat. Olivia Stanton showed him waiting patiently in a queue for the sun beds while in his workout clothing.

When the pool eventually opened for guests he was seen sprinting towards the loungers with a towel under his arm. He even took a shortcut to get there faster!

Other guests were spotted walking casually to the seats while he ran. The post captioned the video: "Part 1 of sunbed wars." Plus, Olivia added: "Our hotel has a sunbed war every morning, look at him in his running gear ready to go."

It's not the first time this summer that Brits have been noticed racing for the best spot round the pool.

A couple were left fuming by greedy tourists who they claim hogged the sunbeds during their holiday to Bali. So they took their revenge on some holidaymakers who left their towels down for nine hours.

Thom and Lisa had jet off from Australia to the gorgeous island of Bali, Indonesia. But, they were gobsmacked when they woke up early to discover someone had already taken all the sun loungers by the pool.

As early as 6.30am, the duo found beach towels laid across the sun loungers at the Grand Barong Resort. Plus, nobody was even using them for hours after they’d been put down.

Thom and Lisa were more generous than most as they waited a whopping nine hours for the families to return to their towels. Finally, they gave up on waiting and chucked their towels aside to take the seats.

However, the people who had taken the beds then showed up. Thom posted about the situation on Facebook.

The couple even took a petty revenge on the family when they were leaving. Instead of freeing up the beds they asked other people if they’d like to take them.

Meaning the original guests were still unable to reclaim their preferred sun loungers. Lisa added: "We literally left and asked others to take them just to keep the pettiness going."

The pair aren't the only people to be baffled by sunbed wars this week.

TikTok poster Gillian, @makeup_cleanse_repeat, documented the wild activity of the people staying in her hotel.

She said they’re not even getting up early, but instead put their towels on the sunbeds in the evening – and leave them there for seven days straight.

Gillian showed people reserving an entire row of sun loungers in the video as she enjoyed her trip to Spain.

She said: "It's 7 o'clock at night, and these people reserve their sunbeds for the whole week. They don't move them."
