Boardwalk...Guests Allowed?

Hey I'll be staying at the Boardwalk Beach Resort March 14th-19th with a few buddies of mine and am curious how the guest policy works. I called and the hotel/condo said that you have to have wristbands to be on the property but you can get guest passes for friends. Only limitation was that they said guests must leave by 10pm. So my question is, how do you bring people back from the bars or whatever? Take extra wristbands in your pockets? Thanks in advance.

Whats up man...I live down here in Panama and I have people coming to stay in the Boardwalk, but I'm not completely sure how it works hence I've never stayed in the condos.

We booked our condo through a private owner that I googled online and she said that she has to order our wristbands and that we cannot have more than 8 stay in our condo, which is gay.

I've never heard of the guest policy so hopefully someone else can fill us in on that...cuz I definately would like to bring some action back to my badas$ condo.

Yeah well hopefully we can find a way to get extra guest passes and take them in our pockets to give to girls, either that or I will have no problem cutting a wristband off of one of my buddies and telling them to go pound sand for a few hours while I hang out with my new friend.

From what I've heard from people, they aren't very strict on the wristband thing. I don't know for sure how they handle it 'cause I haven't stayed there before. The Chateau always had wristbands too, but they never enforced them. I never wore mine, and people from other hotels came and went as they pleased without any problems. Hopefully Boardwalk is the same way.

And I am a die hard Cardinals fan, but I don't live in STL, I'm stationed in Panama City.

The last couple of years security has started to become more strict in regards to people on the property without a wristband. We used to stuff 8 ppl in a room but the boardwalk will only give you 6 wristbands bc thats all that is supposed to be in the room. If you want to avoid the problem all together you can always break yours off and go to the front desk and buy a new one for $10. When we had underage ppl come with that is what we would do to get them a 21 wristband at the hotel. You can find a way to get the wristband to stay together once you break it off......So basically you can get extra wristbands at the front desk for $10.

NYC King will become famous soon enoughNYC King will become famous soon enough
So when you book a room, do they charge you X amount, regardless of how many people you fit into the room (up to 6)?

So they have different hotel wristbands for 21+ and under 21? That's kinda crazy. We have 9 guys in an 8 person condo, so hopefully we won't have a problem. Is it really only $10 for a new wristband?

Yea 3 of the last 4 years we had 8 ppl in our room at the Boardwalk and every year they have used the exact same wristbands. They use red and black wristands and one is 21+ and the other for minors. The two ppl that we didn't have check it we would have wait outside and then later on in the evening or the next day we two of us would take ours off and go to the front desk and ask for 2 more. They make you show ID so they know how old you are, but they have always given us knew ones with no questions asked. Works really well if you are going with minors and you don't want to risk getting caught for underage drinking around the hotel.

extra wristband

do they have a guard of something after 10:00 at night, and no one can go in the hotel without a wristband? So the guy above said you brake your wristband off and then go get another one of $10 for someone else visiting the room, but then how do you then use the broken one?

Tape the broke one together, glue it, whatever you have to do to make it stick together......They have security that walks around the hotel and in the parking lot, they dont always ask to see your wristband, but if they do thats when your gonna beed it
