General travel recommendations
On top of considering the property’s safety and cleanliness measures and other travelers’ reviews, here are some other measures we recommend:
Check travel restrictions
Before booking your trip, check the current travel restrictions for your home country and the countries you’re planning to visit. Make sure you do this even if you’re just traveling through a particular country to get to your final destination.
Update your travel checklist
When packing, consider bringing face masks, hand sanitizer, disinfectant wipes, and a thermometer.
Check the local coronavirus (COVID-19) situation
Before you travel, find out about the local coronavirus situation and any specific policies you should know about, such as using public places. It’s also important to know how to access local healthcare services if necessary. If you still have any questions, you can always check with the property when you arrive.
Keep your distance
Whenever possible, choose online check-in and cashless payments while you’re exploring your destination. Maintain physical distancing guidelines as recommended by the local authorities and WHO.
Stay informed
Stay up to date with any travel restrictions or local government advice. Keep in mind that this could change during your trip.
Monitor yourself
If you develop any symptoms linked to coronavirus during your trip, isolate yourself, inform the property staff, and contact local health authorities for further info.
