Provide Your Resort Guests with Movie Night Entertainment Options

Hotel resort guests today like looking for things to do that get them out of the room, like going to see a movie or spend time in and around the swimming pool after a long day of activities, shopping, and exploring the local area. To help make your guests happy and provide them on-site entertainment options, you should consider hosting outdoor and indoor movie nights.

Outdoor Movie Nights

You can give your guests the best of both worlds by setting up your outdoor movie night next to the pool. While they relax in the pool, they can watch a film on a big screen. You can project the movie onto the side of the building or use a portable, blow-up movie screen. For sound, consider portable, wireless surround sound speakers you can set up around the pool area. If you have a grill area nearby, consider making hotdogs and hamburger you can sell to your guests.

Indoor Movie Nights

Convert a conference room into the movie theater for the evening. Play the movie using a laptop computer connected to an HD projector. For the best sound, either use surround sound speakers or tap into your existing sound system. You can also sell freshly popped popcorn, soft drinks, and snacks.

How to Host a Successful Movie Night

One of the biggest mistakes people make, when hosting a moving night, is inviting friends over and just “winging it” after they arrive. You casually visit while your guests peruse through your movie collection and attempt to try to come to a consensus on what everyone will watch. Taking this approach results in wasted time, disagreements, and potentially unhappy guests.

Successful Movie Night

To ensure everyone has a great time at your movie night, use these tips:

  1. Select the movie yourself to avoid disagreements between your friends. It is okay to get their input about the genre or if there are any recent releases everyone is interested in seeing, but, in the end, you need to decide what is best for the group.
  2. Set a date and time for the movie night. You can create a group event on Facebook to invite people and help them remember when it is.
  3. Inspect your home entertainment center ahead of time. Make sure all wires are plugged in and the surround sound is configured for the type of movie you will watch. Also, remember to verify all of your remotes are working and do not need new batteries.
  4. Stock up on popcorn, candy, and soft drinks. If you plan on having a large group, consider asking everyone to bring something to share.
  5. Enjoy the movie!

How to Simplify Your Entertainment Center

How many devices make up your entertainment center? If you’re like most people, the answer to that question is, “a lot.” Between the TV, the DVR, the disc player (or players), the stereo, multiple remotes, and everything else, chances are you have more media playing devices than you can even remember. The good news is, there are ways to simplify your setup and cut down the number of cords that need to be untangled every time you move the TV stand.

Get a Roku

The nice thing about living in the age of streaming and digital media is that you can access a lot of media with one device. Not only does the Roku give you access to Netflix, Hulu, and other movie and TV channels, it also gives you access to streaming music through Pandora, Amazon Prime, and more.

Buy a Universal Remote

If you have a different remote for every device in your media center, then it’s time to invest in a universal remote. The right remote can control many of your devices from one simple control panel.

De-Clutter

If you still own physical media, it’s time to be honest about how many of those Blu-rays and other disks you really need instant access to. Free up some space by double-stacking discs on shelves, or storing overflow in boxes or in other out-of-the-way locations.

3 Products That Have Made Life Easier

It’s easy to take technology for granted. We’re surrounded by it all the time, and many amazing tools that were once considered technological marvels are now just a part of our regular routine. When you stop and think about it, however, you realize just how much easier these gadgets make our daily lives. Gadgets like …

DVRs

If you traveled back in time just 20 years and told people they would soon be able to make digital recordings of TV shows to watch and keep whenever they wanted, they probably wouldn’t believe you. Yet, nowadays, we take it for granted that we can watch a show when we choose, not when broadcast schedulers decide it should air.

Smart Phones

At this point, it’s easier to list the things that smart phone can’t do than what they can. Need to check your email? Want to listen to your favorite song? Desperate to catch up on the news or find out the scores to the big game? Your smart phone can do all that, and so much more.

Remote Controls

There was a time when the most a remote control could do was turn on the TV, change the channel, or adjust the volume. How far we’ve come since then. Remotes can now control a whole range of devices, and the functions they are capable of have expanded to match the incredible increase in tasks that TVs are now capable of.
