On TikTok, a video about the deckchair war has accumulated tens of thousands. In front of the camera are the employees of a hotel who had just returned from their shift, around 6 a.m. On their way, they notice that vacationers have posed towels on the deckchairs available. A situation they cannot tolerate!
They then launched their plan to take revenge on the vacationers who thought they were smarter than the others. In fact, they moved the towels all over the hotel. This ranges from trees, railings and walls! Tourists who thought they would have a place of honor will be entitled to a nice surprise !

Millie, the author of the post, writes: “We live at the hotel because we work here and a lot of vacationers are staying here at the moment. They came and put their towels by the pool. Nobody does it. We don’t do it, quite simply because we are in Zante”.
She also adds: “I don’t think you need to reserve deck chairs because here, no one gets up before three in the afternoon, so there’s literally no point. It’s pretty selfish because half of these people don’t even get up. And those who get up don’t have a deck chair. It’s really annoying”.
Anonymous vacationers, but very popular!

Later, while Millie was at work, she overhears some vacationers talking about her and her “raid.” “I was sitting next to some girls at the pool, I’d never spoken to them, and they were like, ‘I saw this TikTok, it was at this hotel and people were moving the towels’”she said.
She ends by saying: “Some agreed. Others think you shouldn’t touch other people’s things, but it’s a napkin”. Does this hotel employee really have the right to take revenge on vacationers like this? It seems so, until proven otherwise!
