Start a pilot

Start with one zone.

Pilot the fair-use process where the pressure is highest, then scale to the property — or the portfolio. Licensed per zone, property, or estate.

The pilot, week by week

Live in weeks — not a rollout programme.

No hardware, no integration dependency — and we do the setup. One zone, the real rules, measured results.

Week 1
Scope & seed
Pick the highest-pressure zone. We map the lounger layout, configure the thresholds and set up the rule profile — you review and approve.
Week 2
Print & brief
We supply print-ready QR stickers and zone signs. A short briefing gives staff the workflow: check, grace period, release, log.
Week 3
Go live
Guests scan, book and request checks. Staff work the task queue. The audit trail starts building from the first scan.
Week 4+
Measure
The pilot report compares complaints, staff response times, flashpoints and usable availability against your baseline.
Two-minute check

Assess your sunbed management risk.

Six questions drawn from the failure points recent package-holiday rulings turned on. Answers stay on this page.

Do guests reserve loungers with towels before breakfast — and leave them for hours?
Is your fair-use policy displayed on signs, but enforced ad hoc by whoever is on shift?
Do staff lack a defined process — grace period, release, log — for a blocked lounger?
Have you had complaints, refund requests or reviews about sunbed availability in the last 12 months?
Are pool facilities featured prominently in how your holidays are sold?
If a complaint escalated, could you produce a record of what staff did and when?
0 of 6 answered — answer all six to see your result.
Indicative only — not legal advice or a compliance assessment.
Questions

The practical bits.

Do we need any hardware?
No. The system is QR-led — tamper-resistant lounger stickers and zone signs are all you need to go live. Future smart-lounger sensors are an optional enhancement, never a dependency.
Does this make us legally compliant?
No system can guarantee that, and we do not claim it. Slounger helps you evidence active management of a known service-delivery risk — requests, checks, grace periods, releases and outcomes, all on the record.
What exactly gets logged?
Every guest request, staff check, grace period, release, block, reassignment, escalation and override — each with actor, timestamp, outcome and reason. Exportable for complaint handling and assurance.
How fast can a pilot start?
A single zone can be live in weeks — and we do the setup: layout seeding, rules configuration and a print-ready QR pack. Your team places the stickers and takes a short briefing. The pilot report measures complaints, response times, flashpoints and usable availability.
We are a tour operator — how does this work for partner hotels?
Portfolio licensing puts the system into partner properties under shared rule templates, with portfolio-level reporting back to you. Ask about partner-property fair-use management on the demo.
What about guest privacy?
Guests check availability anonymously and identify themselves only when claiming or reporting. Booking references are stored as hashes; scan analytics carry no personal data.
Start with one zone

Pilot it where the pressure is highest.

Start with a QR-led pilot in one zone and measure the impact on complaints, staff response, guest flashpoints and usable availability.
