My family of five has been here since 11/18. The vomiting and diarrhea hit 4/5 of us so far and has been going on for 36 hours straight. My four year old and seven year old along with myself got sick after eat at the buffet for lunch 11/21. My 18 month old has had diarrhea since 11/20 and started vomiting this morning 11/23. I am pretty certain the baby is sick from swallowing water in the pool or bath. This is absolutely devastating to watch my kids so sick while we’re supposed to be on the trip of a lifetime. The staff doesn’t seem to understand or care because of the language barrier. All but one staff member (a manager) has dismissed our requests for bottled water and 7up. WHAT A NIGHTMARE!The food at this place will honestly haunt me for months. Everything smells funny! The buffet is so unsanitary, don’t understand how they pass inspections with food sitting out for hours without being iced/chilled. I’ve never wanted a plain peanut butter and jelly sandwich so bad in my life! Can’t wait to go home. | Symptoms: Nausea, Diarrhea, Vomiting
