We have a short stay and will do one resort day in October. It looks like the Captains Grill would be a better option than Marketplace in terms of choices and value for breakfast before a day at Stormalong Bay. Any disagreement with that or comments on your experience with breakfast at either?
We intend to be pool ready with suits/coverups/bags and go directly from 8am breakfast at the Captains Grill to 9open for SB.
Should we be reserving a few chairs with towels before 9am? Or dont people play that game at this resort?
I love breakfast at Captain's Grille! You have an option of some really interesting a la carte items or the buffet. There are a few reviews (some of them mine) in Post 7, Dining on Page 1 of this thread.
You won't be able to go into Stormalong Bay until it opens, which won't be before 9 am. Not sure if it will be 9 am or 10 am in October. You will not have any trouble finding chairs at that time of day.
Some inconsiderate guests do reserve chairs with towels early and then leave.
But they run the risk of having NinjaMom suddenly jump out of the bushes and beat them senseless with a pool noodle....
Here's the FAQ post about the towel game and about Chair Piggies from our favorite resort correspondent:
Is it true that I need to set out a towel on a lounger 3 days in advance to reserve a lounger at SAB?
No. Please don't (see next post)

Do guests play "The Towel Game" at Stormalong Bay? How do I deal with "Chair Piggies?"
