Dozens of British holidaymakers queued up for half an hour before scrambling to get the best sun loungers.

The tourists lined up inside the hotel before the gates to the pool opened.

They wanted to make sure they secured the best spot.

Once they were allowed, they rushed to poolside sunbeds carrying towels.

Mark and Karen Gregory, both 50, said people were queuing for half an hour before the pool opened at 10am on Sunday (25 May).

It happened at the Hotel Rosamar, in Benidorm, Spain.

Brits have flocked to the resort to lap up some half term sun during the school holidays.

“It was quite comical to see people trying to get the best spots, Mark, from Swansea, told What’s The Jam.

“People were queuing at least half an hour before the pool area opened.

“I reckon there were at least 50 to 60 people queuing that morning.

“They were mainly British but a lot of Spanish too.

”We’re more ‘go with the flow’ type of people and don’t bother with the sun bed wars.

“It’s more fun to watch.

“When it comes to people reserving sunbeds with their towels, It’s an age-old problem, there’s not enough sun beds for everyone.

“I understand why they do it of course but it’s the ones who chuck their towels down at 8am and don’t turn up till the afternoon that’s the problem.

(Jam Press/BeniMark&Karen)

“At the end of the day it’s all about having the best holiday possible and if that means queuing for the best sun beds so be it.”

Other Birts poked fun at the poolside antics, while others slammed them.

Ange fumed: “It happens in all hotels in Beni.

“There’s signs saying they will take towels off but they never do.”

Karen added: “Benidorm, my ideal of hell.”

Another said: “Does this really happen?

“I’m going there Thursday.”

A fourth said: “Never done this and never will.”
