BOCA RATON, FL (BocaNewsNow.com) (Copyright © 2025 MetroDesk Media, LLC) — A self-proclaimed social media influencer may have caused big problems for “The Boca Raton,” the quasi-resort once known as “The Boca Resort.” A woman who uses the online name of “Hannah Sklar” posted images of herself Friday with her dog in the pool at The Boca Raton. That’s a violation of Florida health codes, and the latest problem for “The Boca Raton” property.

Sklar posted images of herself with her dog to her Instagram Stories feed mid-day Friday. Eagle-eyed BocaNewsNow.com readers — concerned about the health risk the dog in the pool posed to hotel guests — reached out to BocaNewsNow.com. We checked with the Florida Deparmtent of Health which writes this:

“The Department of Health considers any animal in a public pool a public health threat.” And if Hannah Sklar were to suggest that her animal is a service animal, the Department of Health says this: “Service animals as defined in Florida Statute 413.08(1)(d)are allowed onto the pool deck, but ​not into the pool. A service animal is not a pet. While service dogs are generally allowed to accompany their owners​ anywhere the public would normally be allowed to go, they may be excluded under certain conditions, such as a threat to the health and safety of others.”

It’s unclear why Hannah Sklar decided to post images of herself violating Florida statute, or whether The Boca Raton knew what it was doing when it apparently invited her to th property. The Boca Raton, as we reported days ago, is facing a major lawsuit from a woman who says she was critically injured on the property. It’s not the first time The Boca Raton has been the subject of controversy. Read our coverage here.
