May 2021 Newsletter
May is upon us & the weather is still great here at the beach! There are lots of events happening this month, especially the Summer Concert Series and Memorial Day Weekend is just around the corner. Room rates for week nights start at $113 a night, so book your stay with us now.

 Thank you to all of our guests and owners who have been supportive of the changes we have made due to COVID-19.
Protecting our employees and guests is uppermost in our minds, so plexiglass barriers have been installed at the front desk. Because our housekeepers perform a thorough cleaning of the rooms upon checkout, which takes a longer time period, we are unable to offer late checkouts at this time. Our continental breakfast has been discontinued for now, but coffee pots & coffee packets are in your room.

 Housekeepers will only clean your room during your stay if you request it, but when they do the cleaning you will need to leave the room. The gym, hot tub and breakfast are closed; our pool deck chairs are spaced per social distancing guidelines. The lower portion of the pool deck remains a non-smoking area however, smoking is permitted in other designated areas. 

 Effective June 28, 2020, the City of Daytona Beach adopted a resolution requiring residents and guests in the city to wear face coverings indoors in circumstances where social distancing is not possible. Therefore, we ask all guests to wear face coverings when in the common areas of the property, which mostly includes the hallways, lobby and elevators.
Upcoming Events

Book by Fred Ebb and Bob Fosse, Music by John Kander, Lyrics by Fred Ebb. A huge blockbuster and Broadway’s 2nd longest running American musical, Chicago’s original production won 10 Tony Awards, and the 1996 revival won eight more. The original story is based on lives of actual criminals and their crimes and is a lively, highly musical satire on corruption in criminal justice and the phenomenon of celebrity criminals. Don’t miss the “Razzle Dazzle” and “All that Jazz” as the Athens’ production proves that “Nobody’s Got No Class” in life’s “Cell Block Tango.”

This exhibition will contain examples of the many types of objects in the MOAS collection that touch on the reign of this incredibly influential leader who sponsored a comprehensive movement known as Neoclassicism in early 19th century French art. Paintings, sculpture, and works on paper will join furniture, porcelain, glass, decorative fans, and ephemera in this look at the pervasive influence of this highly consequential historical figure.
