    Stay away from the late night burgers or if you have to stay away from the mayo packages they have there. Who knows if they have been in the sun all day.

    We have been to this resort one time before I was so sick , not something I would wish on anyone. If it happens again , there will be no third chances. Have been to cabo temp many times and was never sick there or in the Mayan when we went there.

    The same thing happened to my husband when were at TTR in March 2011 and he is someone that can usually eat/drink anything...but what ever was going around put him down for 2 days. I was fine and partied like a rock star !!!
    Before we travel, I always start taking Probiotics about 2 months before we leave and continue to take while there, this was recommended by my phamacist friend, not sure if this is what saved me or not but I will certainly be doing the samething this year. I get them at Shoppers Drugmart, the Life brand but there are also the Align ones, the Life brand is just cheaper !!! Hope this helps and I can't wait to get back to TTR this April !!!

    I wondered about the probiotics actually. Worth giving it a shot. Thanks!

    After 23 trips to Desire we have found there are two different reasons for the lost vacation time. The usual is the Norovirus, the same thing reported countlessly on cruise ships. Symptoms usually last 24-48 hours and since it is a virus, must run its course. Last May Missy made the mistake of brushing her teeth with tap water instead of bottled water. She wound up with a bacterial infection that put her into the hospital. You can't do much about viruses except wash your hands. But the bacterial infections can be avoided with Cipro. Take one a day 4 days before your trip and daily during your trip.

    I wasn't what you would call sick ,just very tight cramps ,hard to explain this was as well nov 13=20 ,i am thinking that maybe the resort should do away with the plastic glasses and use solo cups,i've watched them being washed and really they are not cleaned properly at all,certainly would never pass Canadian health standards.This was our third trip and to be honest may be our last but who knows ,the resort staff are great i just found the vibe different and the atmosphere much calmer,just my opinion though
