Absolutely, we find it a great way to enjoy last day with some relaxed family fun.
Have a shower there using throwaway practically empty toiletries, nice & fresh for airport. We also use old towels specifically and throw them away.

Exactly the same for us. We've never bothered with the cabana and no problem getting loungers. Really like having a shower before changing for the flight. Kids also really like fun time before the long journey home.

I'm pretty sure I've asked and there's already someone else arriving on our leaving day.

OK I've bitten the bullet and booked a Roa River Rapids cabana at Aquatica for our travelling home day, $201 Eek!
So the plan should look something like, pack 90% the day before and be out of the villa earlier than needed to go to the Virgin DS check in for 08:30, then Denny's for a proper leisurely breakfast. Arrive at Aquatica by 10:30 - 11:00 (Park opens at 09:00) and not have to search for decent sunbeds just be shown to our cabana with towels and chilled water. Have some lunch and depart around 15:00, after showering and changing, for the airport.

We are thinking about doing the water park on our last day too weather permitting. I imagine you could leave your swimming clothes in the car for an hour somewhere too and if it’s in the sun they would be dry anyway before your flight.

That sounds perfect! Kids will be weary so will hopefully sleep on the flight!

I'm hoping it applies to me too, lol. Terrible at sleeping on flights.
