British holidaymaker struck by E. coli at the Royalton Punta Cana

  • Confirmed E. coli case at the five-star resort
  • YourHolidayClaims have been instructed by stricken holidaymakers throughout 2015 and 2016
  • Gastric illness and hand foot and mouth outbreaks reported

A British holidaymaker has reached out to industry leaders YourHolidayClaims for compensation advice after a sickness-stricken stay at the Royalton Punta Cana led to her partner being diagnosed with a confirmed case of E coli food poisoning while on holiday.

The British couple travelled to the beach-front hotel in early May 2016 and report that they both fell ill with the symptoms of gastric illness just days into their 14-night stay. They claim to have been bed-bound for a number of days due to illness and unable to enjoy the five-star trappings on offer.

Incredibly, one member of the party fell ill a second time during their stay and has since been diagnosed with a confirmed E. coli infection.

YourHolidayClaims has been aware of a number of illness outbreaks at the Royalton Punta Cana throughout 2016.

In March, our experts reported on a suspected hand, foot and mouth outbreak affecting British families and young children at the beleaguered resort. In this same month, we also reported on an alleged food poisoning outbreak circling guests at the Dominican Republic hotel.

Expert opinion from our Head of Travel Law

“The repeat outbreaks of food poisoning at the Royalton Punta Cana suggest that there is a clear issue with food hygiene at the hotel. Serious illnesses such as E. coli and salmonella will only spread and multiply in such conditions and I fear that many more British holidaymakers will be affected.

“British holidaymakers have been turning to YourHolidayClaims for compensation advice following disastrous illness-laden stays at the Royalton Punta Cana throughout 2016 and 2015. I urge anyone who has been struck by sickness at this resort to contact YourHolidayClaims immediately for expert advice and support by calling 0330 100 2851.”

Head of Travel Law at YourHolidayClaims

Having never thought to have contacted a solicitor to pursue a claim for compensation before, I am glad that I instructed Your Holiday Claims to deal with my claim following a holiday illness I suffered during my stay in Egypt.

We are very happy with the outcome of our case, especially as we were not offered anything from the tour operator we had booked our holiday with.
