Could faecal deposits be the cause of illness at the Jaz Mirabel Park?

sick sid

As we have previously reported on outbreaks of illness at the Jaz Mirabel Park in May 2014 we were shocked to be reading of further complaints on TripAdvisor.

Guests at the hotel have complained of suffering from water infections, ear infections, chest infections, diarrhoea and sickness.

A reviewer on TripAdvisor has sadly been suffering from illness for nine days and has said that there is an “epidemic” at the resort. Others have complained about the service and cleanliness of the hotel stating it “nosedived” after a few days.

Many have complained of a code brown situation at the Jaz Mirabel Park on numerous occasions, saying “the pools were closed 5 or 6 times due to faecal deposits.”

Tracy Stansfield, an experienced solicitor at Your Holiday Claims, said: “If swimming pools are contaminated by faeces, people may fall ill. The most common infections contracted by this contamination are Giardia, E. coli, Shigella and Cryptosporidium, all of which are very unpleasant. Although chemicals are used to control germs in swimming pools, often they cannot act quickly enough, resulting in germs multiplying.”

Are you still on holiday and suffering illness at the Jaz Mirabel Park? If so here are some tips to help you:

  • Seek prompt medical attention, ensuring you receive a copy of your medical record.
  • Keep receipts for anything you purchase in relation to your illness.
  • Report the issue to the representative and take a copy of the complaint.
  • If possible take photographic evidence to support your claims, showing any health and safety concerns.

Have you returned and still suffering illness?

  • Book an appointment to see your GP when you return, you may need to provide a stool sample.
  • To ensure you receive the maximum compensation you may be entitled to, its important to seek legal advice and speak directly to a holiday illness expert.
  • Tour operators are notorious for undervaluing claims. If you attempt to deal with the tour operator directly, you may accept a woefully inadequate offer.
