Orange Blossom Premium Pool
 
Now that the restaurant is closed for renovations, can you still get a drink by the pool?

I'm thinking no, unless you bring your own.

Are all residents allowed to use that pool or do you have to pay some sort of fee?

It's one of the Priority pools and there is a fee.

If you pay for the enhanced pool membership, are you allowed to bring a guest who has a guest pass?

Yes, if you apply for a guest pass, the enhanced pool membership carries over to their pass.

If the owner of the restaurant also owned the two bars (inside and poolside Tiki Bar) then probably not because he has left.

Right now i beleive you can bring your own drinks like you can at glenview. They don't want any glass however around the pool area. Will check it out tomorrow.

Enhanced pool membership? Are you talking about a priority membership?

Went to orange blossom pool last week. I was told the only type of floats allowed are the little arm band type for little kids ,all others are banned. I asked why and was told that's what the members voted on. I saw no adults floating around the pool.

To answer my own question, we had a chance to drive by Orange Blossom today. The Tiki Bar was indeed closed and they had a sign out saying that only water may be carried in. The attendant said that it could be closed for between 40 days and 6 months! We drive up the road and I am enjoying a frozen Margarita at HaciendaAttachment 15475

Tiki Bar take-over
 
Many fellow residetns have been meeting at the Tiki bar for years. Can someone just open the Tiki Bar up with a liquor license until TV Villages figures out what to do with the old resturant?
