- Request fresh linens and essentials for delivery to your door.
- Exchange items at the lobby during lobby hours: M‑Thurs 8am‑9pm, Fri & Sat 9am‑10pm.
Tip: If you prefer a set routine, plan a quick linen exchange stop that aligns with your day’s outings.
Mask and Distancing Guidelines (What to Expect)
Glunz requires face coverings in shared spaces and encourages courteous distancing to reduce risk during guest interactions.
Where Masks Are Required
A mask or facial covering (a fabric that covers your mouth and nose) is required in all common areas, including:
- During check‑in at the lobby
- While riding the elevator
- Walking in the parking lot or down hallways
- Any other shared space where you may encounter guests or staff
You do not need to wear a mask inside your guest room.
Physical Distancing and Elevator Etiquette
- Please remain at least six feet from others in common areas.
- Ride the elevator only with members of your own party.
These simple practices help keep guest movement smooth and considerate, especially at peak times.
Contactless Check‑Out and Guest Flow
To streamline departures, contactless check‑out is available. Ask the front desk for details during your stay.
Arriving before your room is ready? Early arrivals may receive wristbands so you can enjoy the private beach, oceanfront pools, hot tub, lawn games, and more while your room is being prepared. Check with the front desk on arrival for options.
Open‑Air Relaxation and Wellness‑Forward Spaces
Glunz’s setting naturally complements health‑minded travel with abundant outdoor areas and ocean breezes. While the focus here is on safety, it’s helpful to know the kinds of open‑air experiences you can enjoy between restful breaks in your room.
- A private, swimmable beach along the Atlantic
- Two oceanfront pools and an oceanfront hot tub
- Oceanfront fire pits and beach seating with umbrellas
