Just wondering what was the earliest time people have been able to check into their rooms? I know some have said if they get their early and their room isn’t ready that the front desk will store your luggage but I wanted to just get an idea if possible.
Usually 3 at earliest for us, although we have friends that have arrived with rooms ready much earlier than that. I think 3 PM is the earliest you should count on, and hope to get lucky and get access earlier! And that is what we typically do - store luggage, change into bathing suits, grab our first drink and hit the sexy pool while we wait for our room.
Last trip we got to the hotel before 1. No problems , they had a room ready.... but I had called ahead to let them know and already checked in on line
I would think this might be impacted by the time of year you travel. If the hotel is at full capacity, they don't have an inventory of clean rooms on hand. Sounds logical, anyway.
8am on reopening morning Of course sadly some people arriving at noon that day didn’t have a room ready until 11pm as they finished minor things like putting up blinds and adding a toilet
Earliest ever was like 1pm, and sadly it was a room that you wouldn't want. Had to wait until closer till 3:30 for something decent.
We got there for a trip in August once at about 12:45 and the room was ready. Resort was running about 70-75% that trip, so we probably got one that had been unoccupied the day before.
