Nagua is one of the Dominican Republics least visited areas in terms of tourism.  However there are a few luxury hotels in the area, and the visitors that do arrive in Nagua get to experience a more traditional side of the country.  Despite its relatively small tourist scene, Nagua is still the subject of unacceptable and avoidable holiday illness claims.

Sickholiday.com have dealt with many cases of holiday illness in Nagua, including reports of  symptoms including diarrhoea and vomiting, some visitors have reported poor food hygiene, dirty swimming pools and under cooked food.

Although all holiday makers visiting Nagua are advised to drink only bottled water, poorly maintained swimming pools can also lead to serious stomach illness such as Gastroenteritis as a result of contracting Cryptosporidium. Avoid foods not cooked thoroughly and/or re-heated incorrectly.
