“Hundreds of bed bug bites” and “illness” ruin hard-earned family holiday at Sunwing Makadi Hotel

sick sid

The Daily Mail has recently published a story relating to a family of four whose hard earned holiday quickly turned into a “nightmare”.

The family “were covered with insect bites” after their first nights stay at the five-star Egyptian Resort, Sunwing Makadi Hotel at Makadi Bay, Egypt.

Mr Rae Claydon and his partner Rachel had booked their holiday to the Sunwing Makadi Hotel to celebrate their wedding anniversary and told the Mail Online they were “struck down by diarrhoea and vomiting” the day after they arrived. Rachel also claims to have lost over a stone in weight and has been left with scars from the insect bites.

The 49 year old company director, Rae, told the MailOnline:  “We had been looking forward to this well-deserved break for over a year and it very quickly turned into a nightmare.

“It was an awful holiday and the effects of the illness have left us completely shell shocked.”
All four family members are said to have been affected and the family are now taking legal action.

Anne Thomson, Head of Travel Law at Your Holiday Claims comments: “The team and I are saddened to hear of Mr and Mrs Claydons experience and hope the family makes a full recovery.

“To have such a special occasion ruined due to the failure of basic food and hygiene standards is simply unacceptable and we hope their claim is successful.

“We urge anyone who has been affected to contact Your Holiday Claims, as they too may be entitled to claim compensation with our help on a no win no fee basis”.
