TORONTO — Six of Blue Diamond Resorts’ properties in Mexico and Jamaica are now open.

The welcome news comes after a temporary three-month closure brought on by travel restrictions amid the COVID-19 pandemic.

Royalton Riviera Cancun Resort & Spa, Hideaway at Royalton Riviera Cancun, Mystique Holbox by Royalton, Royalton Negril Resort & Spa, Hideaway at Royalton Negril and Grand Lido Negril all reopened their doors this week.

All of the resorts are following guidance from the CDC, the WHO and local ministries of health to get back to business in a safe and measured way.

In order to keep both guests and staff safe, Blue Diamond Resorts implemented an advanced safety program, approved by the Cristal International Safety Standards. The Safety-Assured Vacations protocols include new physical distancing guidelines, advanced dining safety standards, amplified staff training programs and the use of Personal Protective Equipment (PPE), a 360º Clean Approach to sanitizing all resort common areas and Diamond Clean Guest Rooms, where all touch points are thoroughly disinfected.

“We are excited to welcome back guests to our award-winning resorts in Cancun, Isla Holbox and Negril. During our temporary closure we worked tirelessly to implement enhanced safety protocols and cleaning measures to prepare our resorts for reopening and assure guests that their health and safety is our number one priority,” says Jordi Pelfort, President of Hotels and Resorts at Sunwing Travel Group.
