“Bad stomachs and sickness” reported at the Paradise Valle Taurito

British holidaymakers have complained of suffering “diarrhoea and sickness,” whilst on holiday at the Paradise Valle Taurito in Gran Canaria.

The Paradise Valle Taurito is a four star all inclusive promoted by First Choice amongst others. The hotel enjoys an onsite waterpark, swimming pool, wellness centre and restaurant.

Guests to the hotel have complained on the review site TripAdvisor. Despite the hotel being described as “lovely and clean,” there have been many criticisms of the food.

One couple said “I have to say the food has really spoilt this holiday.” They noted that they have both suffered with “bad stomachs and sickness.”

The gentleman said: “This hotel could be really good, but it needs to get its act together about the food. My stomach is still not right all through staying here.”

Another couple who labelled the food as “awful,” have revealed that they both contracted “food poisoning.”

The couple have described how they were appalled after witnessing a “chef use the same tongs to handle raw meat, then use them to put cooked meat on to peoples plates without washing them.”

They said “we were violently sick, so gave up on eating there.”

Anne Thomson, Head of Travel Law at Your Holiday Claims said: “It is essential that all staff members are fully trained in all aspects of basic hygiene.”

“It is unacceptable for holidaymakers to be exposed to hygiene standards below the international level.”

“I would urge anyone who has fallen ill at the Paradise Valle Taurito to contact Your Holiday Claims to discuss your potential claim.”
