Furious holiday row erupts as every single sunlounger is taken before 7am
An infuriated hotel guest took to social media after realising that every sunlounger at his hotel was taken by 7am.
A furious row erupted on a Greek resort after a hotel guest realised that every deckchair by the pool had been reserved by 7am.
The guest was staying in a hotel in Zante, Greece and spotted the extraordinary scene on their way to breakfast.
Posting on a Reddit forum, they wrote: "Just this. It's 7am and everything is 'taken'”.
The pictures posted showed all the sunbeds by the pool reserved with towels, some saving as many as three at once. This was also the case for the surrounding areas.

A stream of hundreds of furious comments followed, with one joking: “I’d make some towels mysteriously disappear,” while another said: “Absolutely not. Toss them all on the floor. If it's not taken.”
One father, who had experienced this scene on his own holiday, said: “I had already paid off the lifeguard and as soon as I and my wife would be in sight of them, they would come over to us, ask where we wanted to lie down and just remove the towels.” Last summer, a hotel worker was praised for removing towels from sunbeds.
This discovery becomes the latest in the sunbed wars, with tourists being slammed in Benidorm for stacking multiple sunbeds before lying down on them all.
“Two people, five sunbeds, and they are not the only ones,” he said, with fellow tourists slamming the men's “selfish” behaviour.

Two Brits were also told to leave a pool by security after they tried to reserve chairs before the allowed time, with others running to get a spot.
Other resorts, having realised the battle, have banned holidaymakers from reserving sun loungers at all. Ving Hotel Sunprime Pollensa in Majorca has signs that say: "Please do not reserve the sunbeds with towels or other belongings if not intended for immediate use.
"All unattended towels will be removed by hotel staff until 8am every morning."
The hotel's manager previously said: "We want to stop the culture where sun loungers are occupied before they are to be used."
Some parts of Spain are even considering fining sunbed hoggers, charging as much as £650.
