Does anyone know how much it costs to rent a tube (per hour or per day) at the Beach Club for use on their lazy river?
is it free if you stay there?
Sorry, that is incorrect. The tube RENTALs are available at SAB. We do not rent them, but my kids have on past trips. We usually just buy a couple of noodles when staying at the BCV and use them--a lot cheaper, plus it keeps more of your body in the cool water during those hot days.
I didn't know you can use noodles in the lazy river. Where do you buy these? I prefer a noodle over the intertube. Its a bit more graceful

We've bought them at BC where they rent the tubes. I'm guessing around $4. We buy a couple and then hand them off to someone at the pool on our last day.
Beautiful! Can we use the noodles in other parts of SAB as well? I love the noodle.
We always bring our own tubes for the week & then on our check-out day we give them to another family to use.
They are cheap at Target (about $3.00) & then you don't have to worry about telling yours apart from the rental ones at BCV.
Wow. All of you are so helpful. If they sell them right at Beach Club for $4, that's a no-brainer since we will not have a rental car to shop offsite. Thanks for all of the advice!
But how do you blow them up? I remember a couple years back when the kids used to wear water wings - I'd nearly pass out blowing those things up. They are not made how they used to be (back in the olden days) now you keep blowing and blowing and the darn thing doesn't even expand.
The CMs working at the tube rental shop let us use their electric compressor last year to inflate our tubes. This summer we will just rent. The ones from Target were a bit small for DSs 12&16. Although, they would be great for younger kids, just make sure they are transparent.
On the threads from last year, the posters said that the tubes did not have to be transparent. Apparently, they used to have to be (I assume because they did not let you bring your own?) but now you can bring any type/color/size of tube and use your own. They said they were 36 inch transparent tubes. There were all kinds of threads listing where on the Internet you could buy these particular tubes and was a big deal, but then the CMs relaxed their restrictions. Apparently. That's what I remember reading....
