TRIP ADVISOR FLAGS JAMAICAN PROPERTIES

A new safety tool on influential travel website, TripAdvisor, has reportedly flagged 13 Jamaican properties for safety issues since it was introduced in mid-May.

A report on the Detroit Free Press website said the tool was created after one of its investigations revealed a long-standing sexual assault problem in Jamaica.

It said the tool was designed to flag these complaints, by having a Safety Warning box pop up immediately in the review section of a property, citing reviews over the last year that mention sexual assault and sexual misconduct.

TripAdvisor stressed that the hotel reviews it posts are only allegations, and that it urges hotel properties to respond.

US media have stated that more than 70 tourists were raped at some of Jamaica’s top resorts between 2011 and 2017.

A team headed by international tourism safety expert Dr. Peter Tarlow and a group called Global Rescue is currently working on developing further guidelines and protocols to govern hotel and guest relations.

  1. These jamaican hotels love pay workers minimum wages, therefore they take up anybody n give them the little low level work n pay dem minimum wages, what uno expect? Youngsters with all criminal records them a employ because of cheap add labor, I hope people will start going other places, these hotels can pay better and employ better quality staff. Uno notice a certain level workers always raping n stealing? Jamaica government allow these hotel people to get away with too much n treat their staff bad n pay minimum wages. A dat dem hotel yah fi get, bad reviews n flag dem rassss.
