TL;DR
Travelers report that you may be able to walk along the Baron promenade if you say you are sightseeing, though access to hotel grounds and the jetty can be monitored. Some have reached the reef between Baron and Sunrise from the sea, where getting out can be easier than entering via the pontoon.
It is often possible to walk along the promenade by Baron Resort without a wristband if you tell security that you are taking a walk. Staff may still watch where you are heading within the resort area.
One traveler reported walking by Sunrise Resort without a hotel wristband and without being stopped. This should not be taken as guaranteed access to the beach or resort facilities.
The reef beyond Sunrise toward the Baron villas has sometimes been reached from the water, with travelers swimming over it between the resorts. Water level and sea conditions can affect the route; exiting the water may be easier than entering via a pontoon.
