Bestway CoolerZ Tropical Breeze Party Island, Large 6 Person Adult Inflatable Lounger Lake Float w/ Cooler Bag, Cup Holders, & Detachable Sun Shade

This is the talk of the town when it's out there. Get it... especially if you're prone to burning in the sun (as I am). This is an all day affair on the water and everyone loves it.

Took this down a river, and it held up great, despite some unavoidable rocks here and there in the rapids! A lot of space on it to chill out and relax with multiple people. Was rushing to get out of people’s way and didn’t put quite enough air in the canopy sitting area when we took it out, so it sunk in a bit with my friend sitting in it, but not enough for us to want to stop and put more air in it. (Just ignore that in the photos since it was my fault, lol) Putting together the canopy wasn’t as bad as I thought it would be, even though it would have been a lot easier if I didn’t wait until we were floating to put it together lol. Customer service was also very supportive with inquiries I had, and were quick to respond. Unless you have a foldable wagon (which I plan to buy next) to pull this on to where you’re setting up and leaving, I definitely recommend no less than 3-4 people at once to use this since it was very heavy to carry especially after getting wet. Can’t wait to take it back in the water! (Just a space more clear of objects to paddle away this big thing away from next time, lol)

The beach lounge looks fine however when ordering there was no way of choosing which colour - despite there being 3 colour choices shown. We really didn't want purple, but of course, that's the colour that arrived.

We named it the Floatchilla, and decided that there would be semi-regular Floatchilla parties. It’s 9x13’ (3x4m); if you live in an apartment, it’s as big as your living room. It’s strong, too; even that net part in the bottom of the couch area that doesn’t look strong; it held two adults sitting down directly on the net, and it held when someone decided to swim underneath for a surprise shark attack, causing those on the net to flail in surprise. The Floatchilla held up to the abuse of an adult flopping around on it like a cross between a fish out of water and a sea lion, and it didn’t care when adults tried to climb over the couch side to board it, where it was clearly not meant to be boarded. The mighty Floatchilla just chilled and took all the abuse hurled at it. Even on a very windy day, with parasailers and hang gliders taking advantage overhead, that reportedly flimsy sunshade held up perfectly, and even functioned as a sail at times. You might be wondering if you need a Floatchilla in your life. Designed for six adults, we have seven crazy people on board, and it could probably manage ten. It’s easier to board than it looks, and has handholds on either side to assist, plus a ramp on one side. (But the truly determined will find that it is possible to bellyflop on board directly from the water.) It has six cup holders built into the sofa section, and a small built-in cooler. What’s the downside, you ask? The cooler’s not large enough to fill seven adults with food and drink for five hours, so you may find that you have to supplement. Also, you may never get all the air out afterwards, which makes putting it back in the original box challenging. The box itself is larger and heavier than you’re expecting. Tips? Get those really cheap Intex air pumps that everybody buys with it. I read reports that they were crap and ran trough batteries before filling half a mattress, but I had three and filled the Floatchilla within 15 minutes without anything overheating or breaking, and even after deflating, they still run on their first set of batteries. (Get those Amazon batteries, too; they’re cheap and good quality.) While you’re at it, get that small collapsible anchor that everyone gets, too. It held the Floatchilla and all its inhabitants even on a day with pretty decent waves. Don’t float out to sea and die a tourist’s death on the Floatchilla — chill responsibly with an anchor. We’ll probably invest in a big rolling plastic container from Home Depot for storage and transport in the future, just to make things easier. I bought this for my husband’s birthday, but my friends loved this so much that we’re planning to have many more Floatchilla parties, and you should, too.

This floatie is amazing! When it arrived, the product had a rip in the vinyl. I contacted the company and the process was so easy. Once confirmed, the company sent a replacement ASAP! I was mind blown! The quality and thickness of the vinyl is impressive. I have spent summer at the lake for 50 years and this is best floatie we have ever purchased. We had 8 large adults on at one time and we were all comfortable and felt supported and secure. The cup holders a totally fit a beverage with a can cookie and is deep enough not to fall out. The sun shade actually works and stays in place. It is large enough and sturdy enough that when people were on it, it didn't collapse. The large handles were great for securing in the water. LOVE this product. Shipping was super fast. I can't say enough about this product! I highly recommend!
