Video: Royalton guests prepare own drinks amidst staff shortage

You can now listen to Antigua News articles!

Protest action by Royalton staff today could not ruin the guests’ fun! In this video, they were spotted mixing their own drinks at the pool bar and even serving fellow guests.

Talk about taking matters into their own hands! Should they be given a refund for their DIY cocktail adventures? Let’s hear your thoughts on this hilarious twist!

    This is not good. So the guests just getting drunk and having fun? No staff no management. Life is sweet. Maybe I should just walk into the hotel. Nobody to check if I’m a guest ot not. Ha ha ha Merry Xmas

      Remember most of these hotels are all inclusive sooo mixing your own drinks could be somewhere in the clause read the fine print

    Haha. “#1 Tourism Destination”. This must brings nothing but shame to these tourism members. This should be a shout to the Gaston Browne to speak to these hotel management.

      Police would not touch those tourists. We the locals would more likely to be arrested if we do as the tourists did.

    This is full refund and then some. I worked at chic and did a dbl sided bar alone most days, I don’t blame them. People pay hefty for trash service. I don’t blame them, get your money’s worth.

    I am sure the managers of the hotel allow it to escalate and not deal with the workers concern….people must stand up together…

    The resort prefer tourists than locals…
    Tourists get first preference….

    Why not hold the management and directors feet to the fire in letting the workers have to take action for better compensation. I’m pretty sure some guests were emphatic towards the plight of the workers. Even though there were instances of inconvenience. Workers have feelings too.

    Kudos to those workers who finally have the guts to stand up against modern day … and expose the people who are perpetuating it, but I would be pleasantly surprised if those who stood up are born Antiguans for they rarely stand up for anything.

      Locals talk a lot but are afraid to face the fire

    When staff strike, shouldn’t management take up the slack? Not a good look

    Has this strike been resolved? Concerned over security issues. Thank you.
