Punta Cana, Dominican Republic

“Our group ate at Bavaro buffet for supper Feb 8, 2020. Middle of the night 3 members were up violently ill; vomiting, diarrhea, fever/chills that carried into the next day. Took them about 2 days to recover. Suspect it was either the mussels or beef steak contaminated. ”

“Arrived Jan 30, 2020 with a group of 11 adults. Second day into trip we spent the day at the side pool. Few of us had a tequila shot and mojito. Simultaneously, 5 of us became very ill. Vomiting, could not stand up, passing out and blacking out. We have... See More no memory of the rest of the day. Only thing I remember is being dragged up the stairs to my hotel room by life guard and other staff member. Thankfully, the members of the group who did not get affected ensured we were cared for. When I woke up, I had hot/cold flashes and vomited bile for the next 10hrs. ”

“We ate only at restaurants within the resort. I became ill after the Friday Dominican Buffett. Nothing tasted bad but it did include ceviche and fresh fruits. Symptoms were cramps, nausea, high fever and diarrhea. Felt somewhat better after about 24 hours but diarrhea persisted for 2 days and bloating... See More is still there after 3 days. My wife became ill about 12-18 hours after me with similar symptoms and vomiting. ”

“1 day in, my friend was vomiting, and had no appetite. 2 days in, I had horrible stomach pain, diarrhea, every 10 minutes all night long. Stayed in bed for an entire day. Couldn't eat or drink, due to the stomach pain. Flu like symptoms, chills, lethargy, weakness. I'm on... See More my third day, a little better, but still waves of horrible stomach pains, and diarrhea.
Hotel seemed very familiar with guests in this condition. Advised I drink "water with salt and sugar", good thing I brought my own electrolytes, and other diarrhea meds, but didn't help much.
Plates in dining hall are still visibility dirty, so I am guessing cleanliness and sanitation is not a high priority in the kitchen.
Our room was also dirty when we checked in.
I'm not drinking any alchoholic drinks, just water, so that's not it.
I like the hotel, but wish they would be held to higher standards with cleanliness, especially in regards to food handling.
