Call your hotel about COVID-19 protocol

Call your hotel in advance to ask about their pandemic protocol. Are they sanitizing rooms thoroughly between guests? Do they have special equipment they’re using to kill bacteria? Is their staff vaccinated? Is their staff taking regular COVID-19 tests? What is the current dining situation? Are guests eating at the buffet? Is it take-out only from the restaurant? Is it room service only? Are tables distanced at the restaurant? Are lounge chairs distanced by the pool? Any respectable hotel should be prepared with a detail explanation of the COVID-19 safety measures they are taking. If they seem confused or surprised by the question and fumble through a half-hearted answer, you may want to stay elsewhere.
