How resort day passes work
A day pass lets travelers and locals use the amenities of a resort without booking an overnight stay. Depending on the resort, that means pools, private beach access, cabanas, spas, fitness centers and dining.
Most day passes are sold through ResortPass, on the resort’s own site, or by phone. They typically include towel service and pool and beach amenities. Spa access (Westin and Sonesta) and equipment rentals (Omni and Sonesta) may be included or sold separately.
Sea Pines is different. It is a gated community, and a “day pass” there means a gate pass for a visit to the beach or Harbour Town, not a resort pool pass. See Sea Pines for gate and beach details.
Day passes can sell out on busy summer weekends, so book ahead. Always check the resort’s website for current pricing.
