Egypt’s Makadi Palace Hotel is famous for being set amongst beautiful gardens offering not only the chance to relax but also the option to take advantage of its four large outdoor swimming pools. Featuring five restaurants, two of which are buffet style, the Makadi Palace offers all-inclusive holidaymakers a variety of dining options. Unfortunately it also potentially offers a variety of gastric illnesses, with visitors reporting severe diarrhoea and sickness to Sickholiday.com.
Cases of Salmonella, Shigella and Campylobacter have been reported, illnesses usually caused from food poisoning or coming into contact with unclean water, leading to many all-inclusive holidays being ruined and many holidaymakers left out of pocket.
Whilst staying in the Makadi Palace Hotel it is important to follow these guidelines to reduce the risk of food poisoning and other holiday illnesses:
- Avoid foods not cooked thoroughly and/or re-heated incorrectly.
- Avoid foods not prepared hygienically.
- Avoid food not stored at the correct temperature
- Frequently use an alcohol-based hand gel.
- Avoid salads and any uncooked fruits and vegetables (these may have been handled unhygienically)
- Avoid swimming in water or pools that appear dirty and untreated.
In the event that you do get ill Sickholiday advise that you seek medical attention whilst on holiday as this will greatly increase your chances of making an eligible claim upon your return.
