GCP question

A group of 14 of us will be visiting our first time, Arriving Feb 10 staying a week. We have been absorbing all we can on this forum. The question I have has to do with lounger’s around pool or on beach. I have read that GCP has tried to keep people from saving lounger’s. Other posts I have read, mentions that a lot of lounger’s are saved with no one in them. With 14 of us any recommendations on how to sit together if we want, and or do you know if they stopped people from saving lounger’s.

Thanks, Warminwinter

Thanks for the reply and suggestions, we will look foward to having a cocktail with you.

Look get down ther at 6 am with another from your group and take 14 chairs and several palapas together .If you dont and come down later they will all be reserved .Management doeS nothing about this .Or come down at 10 and find some chairs reserved and take the t shirts or books and take them to the front desk OR THROW THEM IN THE TRASH , when the people show up ...if they show up just say the chairs were like that when you got there.Its your vacation you paid a lot of money if you dont get a little aggressive the chair ghouls will screw you every time .


hAVE fUN

I do not mean to sound snotty but I just could not be bothered to be worried about getting a chair..
There is No way I would drag my holidaying butt out of bed to get a chair and I know what Bill would tell me if I asked him to do it..
:evil: :D

I prefer first come first serve..... no saving no hogging.
If no chair is available I just sit on the sand..edge of pool ...brick wall etc..
We have always had more than enough lounge sitting time.
Just my humble

Boy what a can of worms i have opened up here... i can see that we have some very opinionated people about reserving chairs etc... and those of you that are lucky enough to have a company bring them down for sales performance, and yes I pay the same rate you all do, and yes i pay for the honeymoon suite for a reason... to get away from jokers like you...

now to answer the question on the bars... the last bar closes down at midnight... but you can go across the street to the Club Nitro and drink for free until 4 am.... but you also have 24 hr room service to order cervesa all night long.....

see you down around the pool or the beach or the hallways or at dinner or where ever... we will be able to notice you faster since Mod Rules... :twisted: :evil:

I am surprised that someone who speaks of being fair and doing unto others takes to name calling , I have made my opinion known on this website according to the rules of conduct that I read , you on the other hand who by the way list yourself as a moderator , are trying to instill your beliefs as to how a resort should be run when you are just a guest like the rest of us . Tell you what buy a resort and run it anyway you want until I am told otherwise I will express myself and will not resort to name calling and if I do not agree with what you say you still have the right to say it .
Sounds like the chair hogging is a huge problem judging by your reaction ,otherwise why so upset ?This is a problem that this resort as and many others choose to ignore thats why I said if you want a chair whether it is by the beach or pool large group or small get down early and get one ,I said nothing about taking chairs and not using them .That is my beef as well .

THE JOKER

We had our pre trip meeting on Wed night and I mentioned to hubbies bosses wife all the turmoil surrounding the chair saving , she had a good point she said that this trip was costing the company in excess of 50k and the resort had better be more than a little accomodating .So the next day apparently she and the PR rep for our software company got in touch with the GM at the GCP and we were told no problem that we would have priority seating at dinner and the pool and beach chairs would be looked after for us as well.At least we can all sleep in now .See you down there and thanks for the tips.

From what I read on TA for GCP it did not go so well with the large group of people. :( I hope Tom and Lori had a good trip.

Just read the trip advisor report holy cow , well I would love to hear about how the \"Regulars\" faired , if they were subjected to these goings on the same as the rest of us? This sort of thing is common at the GCP and the unfortunate part is the management does nothing about it so as I said take care of your own stuff and get what you paid for or be prepared to be run out of the pool area by the thugs.

It is obvious you know so much about the resort, the owners, the mangement, the staff, that this kind of business and promotional sales ideas offend you and upset you... but this is just MY opinion...

As I have said before I am entitled to my opinion its your right to disagree or agree as you see fit ,I am not going to stoop to your level as for staying somewhere else I chose to stay at the GCP for my own reasons and not because I live some sort of fantasy about running the place , it has its good and bad points as do all resort . As I said unless this forum has become some sort of a dictatorship I will continue to voice my opinion . :D
You seem bent on venting on anyone who says anything bad about the GCP, thats what this forum is for so all opinions can be heard not just yours \"MR CROWN\".
