    If heading from GH to LRM for the beach, you best do so by 10.00. By 11.00 beds together are hard to come by. By 12.00, you’re into asking people can you move individual beds and you won’t get an umbrella.

    still offered by the time we travel! I can’t find any specific details in the booking

    I just looked back at my booking and it didn’t mentionyhting in the email, but the hotel voucher which BA normally say to print off and take to the hotel confimred it was Half Board. The hotel were really responsive and sent pdf’s of all of the set menus in advance, plus added on my membership number (although it didn’t really get much extra, apart from managing to get a 3pm check out) their email address is grosvenorhouse.concierge@marriott.com if you want to contact them.

    Thanks @Biki, I will definitely email them a bit nearer the time.

    @BWS, thanks for the heads up, I was hoping it might be a bit less manic in December before the Xmas school holidays! If I’m on the beach, I don’t want an umbrella … 😎

    ove individual beds and you won’t get

    We went over to LRM one of the days and it wasn’t too bad finding a sun lounger at around 11am, and probably still could have found seats after that. However, we liked GH a bit more, as its a smaller and quieter area by the pool, plus they bring over water, orange juice and melon when you first sit down, then usually little ice lollies later on. At LRM they didn’t bring over water etc., but did bring an ice lolly. another downside were and were a few kids running about maing a bit of noise (although not too bad).

    The only down side at GH is that you’re in shade from around 1.30-2.30 onwards (depending if you use tower 1 or 2 pool). It’s worth trying out both GH and LRM if you have time though.

    Been to both LRM and GH and the dine around HB is great, no worries and it will be the same in December, it’s been available for a long time.
