'Free' sun beds impending debacle?

(1/4) > >>

swedebasher:
The astynomia have been and visited the tavernas giving free sunbeds and doled out huge 'fines' of thousands of euros and instructions to remove them as far as can be ascertained. Uh oh trouble in paradise.

gaynor:
Oh no really ? how can they do that ? You wouldn't have thought they were breaking any laws. Sounds a bit dodgy to me. !!

Jimbo:
The owners of the non-free sunbeds probably complained that it was unfair competition. They were probably better off charging and offering a two Euro reduction on food.

swedebasher:
More like the council trying to grab more money!! The Athina btw charges €8 for their beds and you get a€8 voucher to spend in there.
   Heard talk that some were driving over from Arillas where you pay for the beds to go on the free ones, wonder how many actually patronised the tavernas.
Sunbeds are paramount here as the sand is too wet to lay on, and they also avoid some sandblast if the Maestro is blowing well.

gaynor:
I've just come back from 11 days at San Stef and before we knew about the free sun beds we paid 8 euros at Athina and we got a token for 2 back. Then we were told about the free beds at Waves and we did use those but made a point of buying 2 bottles of water when we got there, coffee at about 11 and then lunch. And I have to say the restaurant was full every lunch time. I just thought what a clever idea.
