Might help ease your mind
Ok, this is only my second post so here goes....
My husband, some freinds I are going to the Riu Bambu Feb. 27th. One of our friends was driving me crazy with questions about the illness that people are reporting SO.....
Here is some info I got yesterday from my travel agent WHO IS ALSO family.
The people that are coming back ill have been tested and retested.... it at NO TIME has been dertermined to be Norwalk. To simplify it...it is a form of a really bad flu.
The Riu chain is going to the ends of the earth to keep all of their resorts in the DR to a point of hygiene that we could only hope for in our own hospitals. The Riu's even have staff installed at the washroom doors with wetnaps to make sure people are washing their hands After people use the washrooms they go in and sterilize it. Same with the bars and reception areas.
Riu is one of the top hotel chains in the world and are treating this issue very seriously. It is amazing the lengths they are going to.
I really think that common sense when travelling is what we need to use.
Hope this this helps ease peoples minds a little.
I know I can not wait to get back to the DR!
