About 12 years ago, I went to Dominican Republic for vacation. I needed some rest; but was very healthy.
When I came back, I was very sick. I thought was some bad flu, for months I had to treat diarrhea, abdominal pains, kidney problem, lethargy. Now I can say, that trip made me very sick!.  | Symptoms: Diarrhea, Fever, Nausea

2014: My spouse and I went with friends attending a wedding there. We were greeted with a resort specialty drink called the Majestic. We had the same from a pool bar at the resort the next day. We went to dinner at a “French” restaurant within the … See More
resort. After returning to our room, I started vomiting, experiences abdominal pain, sweating, dizziness, and diarrhea. I was sick the rest of the week there.
After we got home I ended up with fever over 104F, my fingers were cold and discolored, and I was fatigued and weak with a wt loss of 15-20lbs!
I ended up in the hospital with Sepsis affecting liver, lungs(Pneumonia), heart (CHF), urinary tract and kidney infection identified as ESBL.
The Infection Physician said if I waited much longer I would have died! I was inpatient almost a week then continued IV antibiotic treatment for 3 weeks after.
Many from the resort had various stages of the same symptoms, including the wedding party!
Most drank from the resort bars and ate from buffets in the resort.
I tell you this due to current reported deaths from illness in resorts in Punta Cana.
No one spoke English or tried to understand and accommodate needs at the resort. It was a horrible experience.  | Symptoms: Diarrhea, Fever, Nausea, Vomiting, Weakness, Dizziness, Fatigue, Sweating, Stomach Pain

back in Dec of 2017 I visited Punta Cana and stayed at the listed resort. During our stay one of the bell boys took an interest to one of my friends. He would come into our room while we were out and leave us "extra" bottles of … See More
alcohol and chocolates. I said something to him as well as his manager advising that i did not feel comfortable having him in our room while we were gone especially since he was not housekeeping.
The day i left to come back to the states i fell so ill i was worried i wouldnt be able to leave. i had the worst diarrhea and vomiting, at the same time!! i was able to make my flight however i was sweating like crazy, throwing up uncontrollably! I have had food poisoning before but knew this wasnt anything close to it because I didnt not feel a 1005 until 3 weeks later. I will never go back to this resort or DR, AGAIN!!  | Symptoms: Diarrhea, Fever, Nausea, Vomiting, Sweating

It happened on the last night of our vacation 3/31/19, Originally I thought it was cross-contamination from the shrimp that was cooked as I have an allergy to that. But we told the chef that. There were others not in my party who also said they had an allergy.  | Symptoms: Diarrhea, Vomiting, Nausea

In April 2015, my husband and I went on our honeymoon to the DR. We stayed at the all inclusive resort. The very first night of our trip I got extremely ill. So bad, I had to stay in our hotel room the next day. I did … See More
not eat or drink anything the whole day I was sick. I started to feel a little better, I could at least stand up, always nauseous and had terrible diarrhea so couldn’t go very far from our room. My husband wanted to workout the next day so I went with him to the gym. I still felt ill so I could not work out even though I am an extremely active and fit individual. While I was at the gym just standing there with my husband, one of the workers was recording me with his cell phone and making sexual gestures at me. My husband said something to the worker and we went immediately to management. They basically did nothing besides relocate him to another part of the resort and told us to stay away from that part of the resort. I felt extremely unsafe the whole time I was there and never left my husbands side. Once I started eating and drinking again, the sickness came back. We were there for a week. When we came back to the states I continued to have symptoms for another full week until I went to my doctor and was prescribed an antibiotic. I lost over 10 pounds. I would never go back there even if the trip was free! We reported the entire trip to our travel agent who did nothing.....very upsetting.  | Symptoms: Diarrhea, Fever, Nausea, Vomiting

My wife and 2 boys stayed here from 06/03/19 — 06/08/19. Both our boys (22 and 19) got sick. One son started with diarrhea and vomiting just as we were leaving the resort on 06/08/19. Even vomited at the airport and on the plane. By the time … See More
we got home (~12 hours later), he was feeling better. Our other son was fine until we got home. Then, he started with diarrhea and violent vomiting overnight. His diarrhea lasted for 4-5 days. Put a real damper on an otherwise awesome vacation.  | Symptoms: Diarrhea, Fever, Nausea, Vomiting
