Keeping it in the family: Sickness hits Hotel RIO Playa Blanca

  • Sickness reported
  • Guests claim food is “covered” in flies
  • Sister hotel, Paradise Island, also said to be hit by sickness and diarrhoea bug

Just a week since we reported that holidaymakers were advised not to use cutlery owing to a widespread sickness and diarrhoea outbreak at Paradise Island, we have received an enquiry relating to sickness at the Hotel RIO Playa Blanca, Paradise Islands sister hotel.

Recent guests at Hotel RIO Playa Blanca have raised numerous concerns regarding food hygiene standards on review site TripAdvisor.

One July 2016 holidaymaker labels the three-star resort a “hell hole” and claims that the hotel is suffering from a “serious fly problem.”

“The food in the hotel was the worst ever … Very limited choice and You have to knock the flies off the bread before you get to it.”

Other recent guests report being served “raw” and “undercooked” meat on numerous occasions.

Thoughts from our Head of Travel Law

“I am most concerned to hear that sickness and poor hygiene standards have plagued guests at Hotel RIO Playa Blanca.

“At YourHolidayClaims our helpline remains open to anyone who has fallen ill on a package holiday within the last three years on 0330 100 2851.”

Anne Thomson,
Head of Travel Law at YourHolidayClaims
