German tourist awarded compensation for inability to access sunloungers at Greek hotel resort
A German man vacationed with his family on the Greek island of Kos in summer 2024, paying over €7,000 for an 11-day stay. Despite waking early daily to find available sunloungers, he and his family were unable to secure spots because other guests had reserved them with towels and left them unused. Hanover District Court ruled the tour operator liable and awarded the family €986.70 in compensation, holding that the resort's rules against towel-blocking were not enforced.
