So here is the situation...im not too worried about it....BUT... Ive got 6 goin to the boardwalk hotel and 3 more of my buddies just told me they wanted to go but could only stay 4 of the 7 days. In my 3 years stayin at the Chateau we would have like 8 or 9 in a room for 4 and we had no troubles...I know the wrist band tricks and all that, just wondered if yall had any success/problems with this in the past...

No problems in the past, as long as you've got the wrist bands for them. We've always had people come and stay a few days here and there. They might have to leave their vehicle at Wal-Mart though b/c I've seen vehicles get towed that were across the street in the sand...

Right on..good call on the parking as well, I forgot to ask about that...

idrivefast.....really no more parking in the sand across from the boardwalk?? We always parked the other parked the other car we brought down every year and never had problems....there was always a bunch over there.....

Fritze......3 of the 4 years I've gone on springbreak we had 8 ppl with us staying in the 6 person room.....never even close to a problem getting away with it

I've always seen a lot of people park over there also, but every other night I would see a tow truck come pull a few cars out, and on some nights never come out. So I'm just kinda giving fair warning bro... I'd call and ask if I were you

Yea good call then, we are only taking one vehicle down this year so im assuming they still give you one parking pass per room.....i dont think id risk parking over either then if youve seen it done before

Well it depends on how many are staying in your room. If you tell them you may have 6 people staying in a room that sleeps 6, then I believe you get 2 parking passes. Besides there is plenty of parking on premises, but if there isn't, I'd go to the office and ask them what to do. If they advise parking in the sand, then get it in writing and do so.

appreciate the help fellas....

hey man!! I had a friend stay with us the for 3 days with out a wristband and never got caught....I was drunk when I did it and really dont remember how, but I paid the fee to get a new band and my bud took the old one and poof! done, no questions asked really. The security does check, but im telling you man if you want to get away with stuff at the boardwalk....butter up the security! Tell them how great of a job they are doing and ****, buy them breakfast or something! My week we were there we wrote all over the windows, had constant parties in our room and security never shut us down once...well they did ask us to keep the singing down, but thats it. they always remeembered us cause we were nice to them.....They even let the under 21 wrist bands stay in our room with beeer everywhere...now im not saying that things have not changed, but this was 06 and it was a cakewalk! I not saying it will work again, but its worth a try man!

whoops! almost forgot...although security was nice...they dont give a crap about parking man....I agree with the walmart lot. Stick ur frinds cars over there and carpool it back to the boardwalk

How about the condos? Say I wanted to invite some people up to a condo (private rental) - would they have a problem with this? Do the care (at boardwalk condos) about parties?

No they do not care about parties and the wristband policy is the same (even with private rentals)...so is the parking. The hotel and condo's are right beside each other.
