Conroe's long-awaited Jimmy Buffett Margaritaville Resort plans to open this summer with restrictions in place to keep guests safe from the novel coronavirus.
The new 186-acre waterfront resort took over the former La Torretta Lake Resort & Spa and is in the process of a major remodel. Once construction is completed, the vacation destination will offer more than 300 rooms, signature Margaritaville dining concepts that include swim-up pool bars, an 18-hole golf course, tennis courts, outdoor pools, spa, 24-hour fitness center, main 20-story hotel tower, waterfront villas situated along Lake Conroe and a lazy river, the Houston Chronicle previously reported.

Safety measures are still in the works and could be adjusted over the next several weeks but the following guidelines are guaranteed, per resort representatives:
