With Emily becoming the fifth named storm to enter the Caribbean, hoteliers in the Dominican Republic should visit the DR1 Hotel & Resort Status Page to enter their details. This page is updated often as information from DR1, travel industry and official sources becomes available, carrying timely information from the hotels themselves if a storm may affect the country. The reporting service is free and empowers businesses to have a voice in the forefront and tell what has happened to their hotel, not depending on other sources to provide the status information.
The page was created following the experience of Hurricane Jeanne in 2004, when within the same areas some hotels were affected and others not. Jeanne was also a rare storm to affect several areas in the Dominican Republic. See http://dr1.com/status/ for status information or to enter business details.
Be prepared now.
