Plantation Resort Home Owners Associations operate as pet-free accommodations, so occasionally guests will express surprise at seeing pets around the Resort in spite of the pet-free policy.
These pets belong to full-time residents and live within residential HOAs inside Plantation Resort. Resort HOAs have voted to be pet-free, so we want to share some ideas to help you create a fun beach experience for your four-legged family member while you enjoy your vacation at Plantation Resort.
Thanks to the fine local pet resorts, you can
stay close to your pets while on vacation. Just down the road you can check in your special family member for a week of luxury and fun. They’ll love spending time with you as you travel and when you set them up in their very own pet resort, they’ll enjoy relaxing, playing and making new friends. When you’re ready for more family time with them, you can pick them up for a fun day at the beach. While you’re relaxing at the pool, they’ll be enjoying playtime at a special pet playground.
Here are some of the top rated pet resorts in the area:

Just a few additional items before you go:
•
Each hotel requires that your pet be up-to-date on
their vaccines, namely rabies, distemper/parvo and bordetella vaccines and the
dhlpp shots. They must also be free from contagious diseases such
as puppy warts, kennel cough, worms, parasites, etc.
•
For admittance to the hotel, your pet must be on a
reliable flea prevention program.
•
Keep your pet on a leash as you carefully enter and
exit the resorts.
•
Be ready to bring your pet’s food for the duration of
your vacation.
•
Be sure that your pets are spayed and neutered (with
the exception of “Annie’s Grooming Tails”).
•
Most hotels offer grooming for an additional fee.
We hope, with these recommendations, that your four-legged family member has as wonderful vacation as you will. Feel free to contact us for additional information or help on reserving your stay at Plantation Resort for your entire family by calling 1-800-845-5039.
