I do typically love visiting this place, however during the pandemic it was stressful. Too many guests not social distancing and not wearing masks. We felt like we were in a game of cat and mouse trying to avoid these groups. It made it very hard to have an enjoyable time. Once the pandemic is under control we may be back, but until then, we are going to avoid returning. 

Business response:

Hi Jessica, thank you for the recommendation and for the feedback. We are sorry this visit wasn't up to your expectations. Regarding social distancing and mask wearing, we follow the guidance of the CDC, the City and the State. The current guidelines from the City of Sarasota state that masks are required inside only (and only if you are over the age of 18). They are not required outside but we do encourage guests to wear them. We do have signs reminding people of their responsibilities. We understand your stance and do hope... read more

We had a good time 2 days ago. I wish they had a more efficient system to checkin. Also it was disappointing that people did not respect social distancing and masking requirements. 

Business response:

Hi Erica, thank you for the recommendation and for your feedback. We are happy to hear you enjoyed your visit overall. We are working on a better check in process and have plans to promote and incite people to buy online tickets to avoid the lines. This is a work in process right now. Regarding social distancing and mask wearing, we follow the guidance of the CDC, the City and the State. The current guidelines from the City of Sarasota state that masks are required inside only (and only if you are over the age of 18). They a... read more
