Place was beautiful. We really enjoyed ourselves. My criticisms though are that charging $150 for a late check out is uncalled for, and there were never enough clean towels at the pool.

What are some of the general tips for travellers to Anna Maria Island during the COVID-19 outbreak?
With new rules, restrictions and safety measures to follow, travel looks a bit different these days. Here's what you should know before you fly off to Anna Maria Island:
  • Investigate if any restrictions apply to both your destination and origin. It may not be possible to travel depending on local circumstances, so don't forget to check government advisories before booking.
  • When you go through airport checkpoints, keep your face mask on. You will be asked to briefly lower it for ID purposes. Passengers who refuse to wear a face mask may be fined and denied entry.
  • You're no longer required to hand your boarding pass (paper or electronic) directly to a TSA officer. Instead, position your pass on the scanner and then hold it up for the agent to visually inspect it.
  • You are now allowed to take one container of hand sanitizer up to 12 oz (350 ml) in your carry-on bag. You'll have to remove it for screening.
  • Remove personal items from your pocket, such as your phone and wallet, and put them in your carry-on rather than into bins. This will minimize handling during the screening process.
  • If you're planning to take food on board, put it in a clear plastic bag and then into a screening bin. This reduces the likelihood that a TSA employee will need to handle your food container or carry-on bag for closer inspection.
