Nothing is more annoying than arriving at your vacation pool and discovering a single towel occupying a lounge chair.
It’s not only the awareness that you lost the sunbed battle, but that you lost it to someone who isn’t even present.
Well, a British mother has caused outrage after confessing to using sunbeds for her large family before heading out for the day.

A “day in the life” video has received over 120,000 views and has faced scrutiny regarding her methods.
Stephanie said to her fans, “First and foremost, we need to secure our sunloungers in the pool area. We’ve come as a large family, so we must arrive early.”
However, rather than heading for a swim immediately, the family skips the pool altogether to have breakfast somewhere else in town.
After savoring an ‘excellent’ full English breakfast, the mother proceeded to go shopping while the towels obstructed the sunbeds for other vacationers.
It wasn’t until after their journey that the family returned to the pool and utilized the loungers.
Fans quickly criticized Stephanie for booking the beds and then going into town.
One person said: “I can’t believe you took the sunbeds and then left.”
Another wrote: “Why mention sun beds if you’re going out for the day?”
A third TikTok user recommended that hotels should implement measures to prevent such conduct.
They stated: “All hotels should take the same approach. After 30 minutes of not being on a sun lounger, towels are taken away and given to others.”
