    Hi, I need to give some information about an experience while staying at the Riu Palace Bavaro. I do not know where or how to do that. My email is listed here and my Riu Class # is 91879861, which should also give you my contact information. If someone could please reach out to me with a contact email and/or number I would greatly appreciate it. Thank you in advance.

    Hello,

    I have a reservation with my family & friends from 7/30 – 8/6 and very concerned about all the deaths currently occurring in your country.

    We are a group of 20 & have about 10-11 rooms already reserved & would like to know what is being done within our hotel (Riu Palace Punta Cana) to keep us safe & prevent an incident like the ones occurring from happening in our resort or to us.

    While I understand that nothing is 100% proof & things can happen I’d like to know if the hotel is taking precautions.

    Like are the minibars being checked? Is there extra security? Is the food being watched more carefully? This is all very scary.

    Thank you,

    • Riu Hotels

      Good afternoon Sandra,

      Concerning your question, in relation to the information appearing on the possible cases of intoxication at the hotel Riu Palace Macao in Punta Cana, RIU Hotels & Resorts states that:

      We are aware that three guests staying last April at this hotel and coming from the same group (of 120 people) were attended by a possible case of gastroenteritis in our doctor’s office. These events occurred after an external activity of this group outside the hotel, so we can not determine the exact origin of the stomach upset.

      Having said that, no more similar cases were registered by other guests during the indicated date above.

      We regret not being able to offer you more information due to privacy reasons.

      Kind Regards
      RIU Hotels & Resorts
