Frustrated guests complain of infection and illness at RIU Touareg

Former guest contacts us after H. Pylori ruins their holiday
Additional holidaymakers also claim illness is rife at the resort
Poor hygiene and food standards to blame, according to guests

YourHolidayClaims experts are currently assisting a holidaymaker who had to endure severe gastric illness symptoms of diarrhoea and stomach cramps in Cape Verde during his visit to the Boa Vista resort.

Worryingly whilst investigating the issues at the RIU Touareg, YHC experts discovered reports on the website TripAdvisor which revealed that more holidaymakers have been far from pleased with their visit.

One poster who stayed in April 2016 disclosed:

âVery disappointedâ¦The only thing that is 5* about the hotel is the look of the hotel.

âWhen we arrived we [were] greeted by an infestation of moths in the corridor and several dead bugs on the floor of the room.

âThe food was very average and whatever was on offer for lunch was also for dinner the same day.â

Furthermore, another holidaymaker claimed his âwife developed a bad stomach for daysâ and alarmingly that many of his fellow travellers also had âstomach upsetsâ.

Additional online reports also unveil that the food served to guests at the RIU Touareg was often âcoldâ, and that the resort also has problems with cockroaches infesting rooms.

What our Head of Travel Law thinks

âH. Pylori can cause a number of unpleasant symptoms, and can spread quite quickly in resorts such as the RIU Touareg if it is not controlled correctly.

âIt is saddening to learn that holidaymakers breaks are being ruined by illnesses, and my thoughts are with anyone who has been affected by the illness issues that have been present at the RIU Touareg.

âI suggest that anyone affected by illness on holiday seeks the justice they deserve, through speaking to me or any member of my team at YourHolidayClaims by calling us on 0330 100 2851 or by starting your claim onlineâ.

Anne Thomson,
Head of Travel Law at YourHolidayClaims.
