Protocolo Covid

In order to addapt our measures to security needs because of Covid-19, space access and schedules should be modified. During these exceptional circumstances, at Holiday World Hotels, we are committed to managing our resort responsibly, based on a sustainable tourism model, which guarantees that we protect and look after the people in our environment. To this end, we have revised and improved our health and safety strategy, especially for our GUESTS, STAFF MEMBERS AND SUPPLIERS. We have collaborated with healthcare professionals and specialists who are trained by doctors, laboratories and health and safety consultants to draft this protocol and deliver our #SAFEHOLIDAY measures, aimed at ensuring you feel safe on holiday during these uncertain times. At Holiday World, we are going to maintain and adapt our QUALITY AND SAFETY standards as our brand identity, enhancing and adapting our internal protocols with the objective of giving you, our guests, complete peace of mind while on holiday.
