SMOKING POLICY
The Royal Floridian Resort’s Board of Directors approved an In-Villa Non-Smoking Policy effective February 1, 2011. No owner, family member, tenant, resident, guest, business invitee, or visitor shall smoke cigarettes, cigars, or any other tobacco product within the vacation villa. Smoking will be permitted only on the balcony area of each villa. If it is found that an Owner and/or Guest has violated this policy a fine of $150 for a professional cleaning of the unit will be charged to the Owner and/or Guest who is registered at the resort. If the next occupant to this villa must be relocated due to the smoke smell, the previous occupant will also be charged for any additional fees that may be incurred by the relocation.
Royal Floridian South:
The Royal Floridian South Resort is a NON-SMOKING Resort. Smoking on the Resort Property is strictly prohibited. Violators will be charged a non-negotiable fee of $150 if it is found that an Owner/Guest has smoked within the villa. In addition to the $150 charge, there may be additional fees charged for the relocation of an incoming guest due to the smoke odor.
Smoking is permitted only on balconies of the Royal Floridian Resort (not at RF South) and around the Tiki Hut. Please refrain from throwing cigarette butts down onto the pool deck below, PVC roof tops, or any common areas.
SWIMMING POOL/HOT TUB
Indoor Pool hours are from 8:00 a.m. until midnight. Please follow all posted rules for both pools. There is no lifeguard on duty; you are swimming at your own risk. Never leave children who are not water safe unattended around any pool. There is no glass permitted in the pool/hot tub areas.
Please have non-potty trained children use swim diapers which are available for free at the Front Desk for your use. Even bathing suits with the diapers sewn into the lining tend to stretch out at the legs allowing leakage. The most common cause of fecal contamination in pools is from young children not properly dressed for swimming. If contaminated, Florida State Health and Safety Rules require that the pool must be shut down after a contamination.
PLEASE NOTE: The resort HOA has mandated a $200 fine which will be charged to your villa if contamination is found to be a direct result of improperly dressed children in an Owner’s and/or Guest’s care.
Blue and white striped pool towels are provided in your villa upon check in. Lost or unaccounted for towels discovered after departure will be charged to your account. Towels can be exchanged at the Front Desk at any time.
TRASH & RECYCLING
Royal Floridian Resort
Trash chutes are located on the north and south ends of each floor for your use. Please bag all trash before placing it in the chutes.
If you are on the 1st floor (only) please bag your trash and leave it outside your villa, and one of the Porters will be by to dispose of it for you.
There are Recycle Bins for plastic, and metal cans located next to the trash chutes for your convenience.
Please refrain from throwing garbage into the recycle bins.
Royal Floridian South
When staying at Royal Floridian South trash chutes are located just west of the elevators on every floor.
Please bag all trash before placing it in the chutes.
There are Recycle Bins for plastic and metal cans located next to the trash chutes for your convenience.
TURTLE NESTING
Please keep your DRAPES CLOSED AT NIGHT especially if you have lights on in your villa. Volusia County is extremely strict when resort properties do not follow required codes set by the County Code Enforcement and Environmental Management Group. They can and will fine your Homeowners Association up to $5000 per violation.
Please help protect both the turtles and your Owners Association by complying with these regulations. When on the beach please do not disturb any marked areas where nests are located. If you observe hatching turtles do not touch them and please watch from at least 30 feet away. Please see the Front Desk staff for further information on Sea Turtles, their nesting habits, and conservation facts.
LOCAL ACTIVITIES
FISHING & CRABBING
There are 3 types of licenses available to non-residents for saltwater fishing:
• Non Res Annual Saltwater $47.00
• Non Res 3-Day Saltwater $17.00
• Non Res 7-Day Saltwater $30.00
These rules apply to all anglers who wish to fish between ages 16-65. You will need to obtain a shoreline license as well for brackish water fishing, i.e. the Halifax River.
Please contact 888-FISH-FLORIDA, (888) 404-twcc or visit www.myfwc.com for further information. Best Places to Fish include High Bridge, Tomoka State Park, and The Granada Pier, all great fishing spots for the on-shore angler. If you like to fish in the ocean and don’t want to be on shore, be sure to also visit the Flagler Beach Pier. Please follow all seasonal rules when catching and keeping fish. Each species has set limits that need to be observed.
Crabbing
Blue Crabs are in season year round in Florida. You do not need a permit or license to catch them. A good mesh net (small holes), poultry for bait, a string to tie the poultry to, and a bucket with water or a cooler with ice is all you need.
Early morning or early evening are the ideal times to catch them. However, they can be caught all day as long as your shadow does not hit them while they are in the water. Crabbing is a great family activity. See our Activities Staff for ideas on the best places to crab in the surrounding area.

- Sunbathe only west of parking and east of traffic lanes
- Alcohol, fireworks, pets, and glass containers are not permitted on the beach
- Always swim in front of a life guard
- Keep a close eye on children while swimming
- Never swim alone
- Understand the rip currents and the dangers they present to you
- Be cautious of wearing earphones while jogging on the beach, as you may be unable to hear cars approaching
JELLY FISH STINGS
If there are no lifeguards around (winter months for example), peel or scrape off remaining tentacles with tweezers, a gloved hand, stick, or shell. Treat the infected area with hot water to remove any remaining tentacles. The recommended water temperature is 122 degrees. However, there is not always a way to gauge water temp in a bath or shower, so work the victim up to the hottest water he/she can stand being careful not to scald or burn the victim. If hot water is not available use sea water rather than fresh water.
Please watch for allergic reaction. If present please proceed to the nearest emergency department.
White vinegar may be used to treat lingering pain on the skin after washing. Tylenol or Ibuprofen may also be given for pain.

Also please note that the resort Pools will close for the safety of our guests during these brief summer thunderstorms.
RIP CURRENTS
If you are caught in a rip current remain calm and do not fight the current.
Swim parallel to the shore until you are out of the current and then swim to shore.
If you are unable to swim out of the current, calmly float or tread water.
If you are unable to reach shore, call attention to yourself by waving your hands or yelling for help.
If you see someone in trouble, don’t become a victim too; throw the person a floatable object, get help from a lifeguard, or call 911.
SAND DUNES
There are imposable fines for damaging the dunes or vegetation.
SEA FOAM
As these things break down in the water, currents transport them throughout the ocean.
Once they move closer to land the wave’s momentum causes the matter to bind and create sea foam along the shore.

Ponce Inlet
Ponce Inlet is a very short drive from Ormond Beach, but you can definitely spend the day there. Pack a picnic and spend hours on the beach, tour the lighthouse, or check out one of the prettiest restaurants in Ponce Inlet, Off The Hook Restaurant. Take Atlantic Avenue (A1A) South toward Ponce Inlet. Before you reach the Lighthouse you can access the beach at a popular local spot—Winter Haven Park in Ponce Inlet, Florida. Driving is not permitted on the beach here, but there is plenty of parking, bathrooms, picnic tables, and barbecue grills. You can let your children play without worrying about traffic. Of course, always keep a close eye on your children, swim in front of the lifeguard, and educate yourself and your children about rip currents. Another beautiful beach is at the Lighthouse Point Park. Lighthouse Point Park is closer to the Ponce Inlet lighthouse, and is a lovely place to spend the day. Walking out on the jetty is a must. This is a beautiful area to sunbathe, take a nature walk, swim in the ocean, watch the dolphins and boats, and have a picnic. While you’re there visit the Marine Science Center for a wonderful time learning about sea turtles, local marine birds, sting rays, and various other exhibits throughout the center.

Silver Springs: Florida’s Natural Theme Park
Surrounding the springs is a marvelous diversity of animals and natural beauty you simply won’t find anywhere else. Come and explore the stunning allure of Florida in its natural state.
Glass Bottom Boats offer passengers an unparalleled view of underwater life in the 99.8% pure waters of the Silver River. Their boats, with U.S. Coast Guard licensed captains, will take you on an enchanting tour of the seven major spring formations at the headwaters.
In spring, Fish Reception Hall is home to dozens of species of fish as well as alligators, clams, craw fish, shrimp, snails and six different kinds of turtles, all amidst the backdrop of tiny fossilized shells from 70 million years ago. Peer through the glass and crystal clear water for views that only a scuba diver could have. You’ll be comfortably seated, and covered from the sun and weather.
Also on the grounds is Wild Waters Water Park, which is open seasonally and fun for all ages. Directions from the Royal Floridian Resort: Take State Road 40 or Granada Blvd West towards Ocala. Silver Springs is located off SR 40 just East of Ocala.
Tomoka State Park and Bulow Plantation Ruins
No visit is complete without a stop at the Fairchild Oak. The Fairchild Oak is one of the largest Live Oak trees in the south. The tree has stood for centuries, silent witness to the clearing of the wilderness for plantations, and in 1836, the destruction of the settlements on Bulow Creek by raiding Seminole Indians.
The park contains numerous plantation ruins, most hidden in the undergrowth of the forest. All ruins are protected as state archeological sites.
Visitors can take a leisurely hike through the miles of nature trails. Several trails allow hikers to explore the interior of the park, where visitors can see white-tailed deer, barred owls and raccoons. The Bulow Woods Trail, nearly seven miles long, takes hikers to Bulow Plantation Ruins Historic State Park. Many of the Seminole Indians ruins are covered by forest only to be seen from the trails. Bring plenty of bug repellent, sturdy shoes, and a camera for a great family activity. Keep driving north on Beach Street through a scenic view of Old Florida to reach the entrance of Bulow Creek State Park.
Both parks offer ample outdoor activities which include hiking, fishing, boating, kayaking, crabbing, nature observation, and just plain relaxation.
Fresh Water Natural Springs
There are several state parks that offer wonderful opportunities for the entire family. During the summer months visitors enjoy swimming, boating, scuba diving, snorkeling, and hiking the nature trails throughout the parks. Winter offers a wonderful mix of nature to be observed and photographed.
Blue Springs State Park in Orange City off I-4 is about a 45 min. to an hour drive from the resort property. During the summer, tubing down the spring run is widely popular with patrons of all ages.
Scuba or cave dive down into the mouth of the spring head. Take a guided river tour or just relax in the Florida Sunshine. During the winter months the Manatee makes its home in the constant 72 degree waters.
Blue Springs is an excellent place to observe Florida’s natural wildlife in a pristine setting.

Deleon Springs State Park in Deleon Springs off SR 40 is about a 30 minute drive from the resort property. During the summer visitors enjoy swimming in the pristine swimming pool fed by the natural spring. Boating, canoeing, and kayaking are also available for visitors.
Picnic on the natural grounds surrounding the swimming pool, or enjoy a pancake breakfast prepared at the table in front of you at Old Sugar Mill Pancake House. Stunning river basin vistas surround the park.
Winter months offer nature trails, fishing, and a sightseeing tour of the natural river basin surrounding the park. During the summer months we recommend you arrive early especially on the weekends as this is a popular local spot.

Alexander Springs is a wonderful place for both snorkeling and scuba diving enthusiasts alike. Scuba diving or snorkeling allows visitors to view the abundance of underwater vegetation and fish in the springs. Scuba diving is only permitted in the large spring boil and valid proof of certification is required.
For hikers, Alexander Springs offers several excellent resources. The Timucuan Trail, named after the Timucuan Indian tribe, is a 1.1-mile interpretive loop trail that highlights vegetation used by early Native Americans and is an outstanding location for wildlife viewing.
