We stayed here. On day 2 my toddler and I got sick. I had nausea, vomiting, diarrhea, stomach cramps for 8 hours straight that wouldn’t stop. My daughter was vomiting. We both had to be treated off the resort at Hosptien Bavaro for bacterial intestinal infections and … See More
dehydration . We got back to the resort and my husband start with nausea and diarrhea. He was also hospitalized for 3 days. We don’t know what it was that we ate or drank that caused this. We were super careful about our food choices at the buffet and beach side restaurant. The hotel is useless in helping or making things right after spending half your trip in the hospital. They take your report and that’s it. Nothing else is done for you. Stay away from this resort and the DR. They make lots of money making tourists sick. Several people from this resort were also at the hospital. We are returning home and all require follow ups with tour doctors. I still have stomach pain/cramps.  | Symptoms: Nausea, Diarrhea, Vomiting, Cramps, Stomach Pain

My husband and I went for our honeymoon. Feb. 2019 and have been sick off and on since. I've seen several doctors, including a holistic doctor, and they can't figure out what is wrong with me. I did get extremely sick while staying at the resort and … See More
continued for several weeks after returning home. My blood pressure was 220 once I got back to the states. I go weeks of feeling great, and then a month or two where I can't even get out of bed because I am exhausted. My skin is a mess, and my hair falls out in clumps, pale, brain fog are just a few of the symptoms I now live with. I am now getting a referral to Mayo Clinic. I am hoping for some answers!  | Symptoms: Nausea, Diarrhea, Vomiting, Other

Got sick after on the 6th day of my stay. Diarrhea and stomach cramps were the symptoms. Not sure what caused it, highly suspect the food was the cause. My wife and 2 children also experienced similar symptoms, with additional vomiting.  | Symptoms: Diarrhea, Nausea, Cramps

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.  | Symptoms: Diarrhea, Nausea, Vomiting, Fever, Chills

In 2009, yes 10 years ago. I was at the Grand Bahia Principe Bavaro in Punta Cana and on my very first night, we ate at the Asian restaurant and about 1-2 hours later I woke up in excruciating pain, throwing up, diarrhea, fever and literally thought … See More
I was dying. My boyfriend (now husband) had to call for help (called at least 3 times). They finally came and got me and brought me to their doctor. In order to be "seen" I had to pay him $500. Once he evaluated me, he said I should go to their local hospital, I refused so they gave me some medicine (anti-viral?) and two iv's. The rest of the vacation (3 more days) was a blur because I was so sick. I didn't eat/drink anything other than bottled water and bread. When i came home, I was admitted to the hospital for 5 days on iv antibiotics. My doctor said I had one of the worst strands of e-coli and my kidneys were failing. Luckily, I got help. I wish I reported this years ago but since these reports are coming out in the news I felt I had to post this somewhere that mattered so others could see how serious this issue is in the Dominican Republic.  | Symptoms: Diarrhea, Fever, Nausea, Vomiting
