The woman had initially started speaking to Carmel, asking if her son has had his teeth done - to which she replied: "No, he's 16 - they're natural".
The woman then replied "Wow, they're lovely".
A few minutes later, Carmel went to the bar and left her son sitting with his grandad, at which point the "33-year-old woman turned around to my 16 year old son and said, 'Give me your Snapchat'."
Carmel added that the woman - who she said looked "older than 33" - had "slyly" waited until she'd walked off so that she could approach her son.

"You knew it were wrong," she continued.
"You knew exactly what you were doing, predator, didn't you?"
When Carmel discovered what had happened, she went up to the woman - who was on a FaceTime call at the time - and demanded to know why she had asked her son for his Snapchat.
And when confronted, the woman admitted: "I knew it were wrong, and I'm sorry".

"What were you gonna do? Have your wicked way and buy him a Big Mac?" Carmel raged.
She concluded her video by saying she hoped the woman saw her TikTok, because they're both still in the resort and Carmel's "still not over it".

"I'm still raging!" she added in the caption.
And in the comments section, people were quick to have their say - with the majority agreeing with Carmel that it was "totally inappropriate".
"Imagine this was a man to a 16 year old girl," one sighed.
"This is so wrong!"
"My 17 year old has said women my age - in their 40s - have tried chatting him up when he's out," another added.
"Absolutely gross and they are lucky I've never been there!!!!"
"Why are you even having to deal with this s**t?" a third shouted.
"Makes me sick - absolute freak!" someone else agreed.
"I'm 37 and my eldest is 18, and I'd still have gone mental!"
"Totally inappropriate," another said.
"I'm 32 and have Snapchat only to contact my 13 year old niece!
"Otherwise she'd never reply to my messages!"
"Having Snapchat in your 30's is a waving red flag," someone else insisted.
