To whom it may concern: Last year, my partner and i took a flight out of Toronto to Cuba ( Varadero ) on the 25th of December 2022. Our flight was delayed for almost 16 hours, our bags ( 3 ) never made it to our final destination. So, for 10 days we had no bags. That morning on departure, they charged me $70.00 CAD for an extra bag, even knowing that none...
Read full review of Sunwing Travel GroupDelay, I am looking for compensation of out of pocket expenses.
Hello,
My flight was delayed July 25 2023 with a flight from Santa Clara, Cuba to Toronto, Canada for over 3 hours. My plane was scheduled to leave at 10:35 pm, but instead left at 1 am.
This delay we received was due to an unknown reason.
I originally had a trained book from Toronto to Ottawa at approx. 5 am, but had to cancel and rebook a train, which incurred extra costs. The cost of the new train tickets were 284$
I would like to be reimbursed for these out of pocket expenses.
Thank you.
Desired outcome: Receive compensation
Royalton Blue Waters Montego Bay, Jamaica
My name is Tamara Campbell, My daughter checked into this Resort on September 5th, and it was the worst experience she has ever had, she had to check out a day early. She was sexually harassed from the moment she went to this resort. While relaxing in a cabana, the cabana guy pulled his pants down and asked her to perform oral sex to him. It was the most degrading experience she has ever has and obviously women are not safe at this resort. She reported the incident to guest services and not once did the manager come out to speak with her or apologize. My family, my friends or anyone I know will never go to any Royalton Resort. For further information I can be reached at [protected]@gourmetadvisory.com or [protected]. Thank You
Desired outcome: a full refund of the 2 nights she spend there.
Failure to Release COVID19 Travel Credit Funds
We were issued a COVID19 Travel Credit in the amount of $6825 in 2020 by Sunwing Travel Group. When we called Sunwing to use our credit in 2022, we were told that our credit card had been refunded in the full amount. No such credit has ever been issued.
Each time we call Sunwing, we are told the same thing. When we ask for a reference number for the transaction, agents refuse to give us a reference number and will not release a screenshot of where they are getting their information.
We have tried several times to connect with Sunwing personnel above and beyond call centre agents, and each time we are disconnected.
We would like to escalate our claim with Sunwing, as we have evidence that proves a credit has never been issued.
Desired outcome: Full refund of COVID19 Travel Credit from Sunwing Travel Group.

Dear Mr. Escarrer, Mr. Hunter and Mr. Corrado,
I am writing to bring to your attention our awful experience the four of us had at Melia, Paradisus in Varadero, Cuba. Additionally, Sunwing fraudulently represented and advertised your hotel.
SUNWING COMPLAINTS:
1. Firstly, Sunwing's website advertises over 9 restaurants and bars for breakfast, lunch and/or dinner. This is completely false. Half the Princess resort was closed unbeknownst to ALL GUESTS in advance. Rather, we eventually learned when we arrived, we only had the option of picking from only 4 restaurants for dinner only. No lunches, no breakfasts a la cart. The only option we had for breakfast and lunch was a 24 outdoor cafe which served the exact same sandwiches and a horrible, distasteful buffet which also included the same food every single day.
2. The racket club, additional bars and restaurants that are advertised on your website were all closed. We were not aware half the resort was completely closed. Not one guest was made aware of this in advance. The closed side of the hotel was not maintained or cleaned. The landscaping is was extremely filthy, only to walk through tall weeds and grass and decrepit buildings. Visually, it appeared awful. It was obvious the closed side was not maintained in months, if not years. As such, Princess should NOT advertise on the Sunwing website the entire resort is open. Rather, it should be transparent with its guests in advance the resort, restaurants, bars and amenities are closed or not fully functional. Your add is false and extremely deceptive. We chose this hotel because we assumed all that Princess and Sunwing advertised was accurate and true.
3. Sunwing further advertises the beach is cleaned nightly. In the early morning, they merely rake the seaweed and put them in piles, 5-10ft apart. The seaweed is merely raked and left on the beach. It is not removed at all. As such, guests are left to look at piles and piles of seaweed or eventually, swim in it. Sunwing advertises the beach is cleaned daily. This is completely false.
4. Sunwing (see attached) also booked our two rooms having a POOL SIDE view. Additionally, the four of us required us to be close together. This was confirmed. Please take note that Alexandar (son) has severe autism, thus we all needed to be close and/or supervising him at all times. Hence, the request for connecting and/or rooms close together.
5. We were not advised when a Sunwing representative would be present to learn about excursions and/or tours onsite. We eventually learned there are postings of times a Sunwing representative would be present at the hotel, at the side of the hotel. No one advised us at the hotel The hours did NOT reflect the staff times. Rather, the staff came a different hours thus we would miss them and we could not attend any tours or excursions.
6. We were advised by hotel staff our pick up bus for the airport would arrive four hours before our flight on July 26th. When preparing for our departure, no one at the front desk knew or could confirm when our bus would arrive to pick us up. As such, we had them contact Sunwing who eventually told them we were to be at the lobby at 5:55pm. The bus eventually arrived at 7:30pm and our flight was at 9:55pm. Many guests were worried and uncertain what was happening, including elderly couples who were much more vulnerable. Hotel staff did not help us or make one phone call to assist or alleviate our worries. They just told us to wait.
PARADISUS COMPLAINTS:
1. Upon arrival at 11:30pm to the hotel, we were provided keys to our two room. We were assured our rooms were meters apart. I provided our booking details, confirming we have a Pool View. Front desk smiled and confirmed we had adjoining room with a Pool View (see attached) in building #6. We waited over a half hour for the a travel cart to take us to our rooms at 12am. Once we got to our rooms on the second floor of building 6, they were not side by side or even close to each other. Rather, the rooms were on the opposite side of building #6, on the same floor. Once Anna Marija and Alexandar got to their room, they realized there was no air conditioner (July, 2023). We called the front desk immediately and they assured us a "mechanic" would come look. We waited an hour and no one arrived. Please keep in mind, we are exhausted having travelled over 12 hours. We called the front desk at 1am for over an hour and no one would answer. At 1:00am they finally answered and they promised the mechanic would come again. He arrived at 1:30am and confirmed there was no air conditioning in the room. The front desk provided a room change and someone would come to help us to the new room. At 2:30am, a staff member came to the door and did NOT take our luggage or help us to a new room. The new room was on the first floor, far from Donna Dobrijevic and Natasha Maksimovic who were on the second floor. BOTH rooms faced shrubs and dead grass, not the pool. We were all in bed by 3:30am on our first evening.
2. I asked to speak to the Hotel Manager the on July 24th, 2023. Each staff member was providing a different response. One said she was in a meeting, another said she was not in, and another said she would return tomorrow. A customer service representative, who did not speak English, said he would help only to give us another room on the third floor. No pool view. Nothing was resolved nor did anyone attempt to accommodate or assure us.
3. On July 25th, I returned to the front desk and demanded I speak with the Hotel Manager. They advised me to wait and she would be out to speak with me. I waited in the lobby for over an hour only to learn she would return at 4pm. I came back at 4pm and they advised me there is no Hotel Manager in at that time. As you can imagine, I was furious. They assured me someone would contact me. No one did.
4. Manuela, Customer Service representative, eventually met with me on July 26th because I returned to the lobby again. She merely listened and offered us a 20 minute massage and a catamaran ride. She directed me to go directly to the beach were Emmanuel was waiting for us. We went to the beach, there was no boat or an Emmanuel. In calling the front desk, asking what to do, no one could provide an answer. I was frustrated, angry and confused and assumed Manuela lied or did not provide accurate directions. As such, I walked a half a kilometer down the beach to ask for an Emmanuel given I saw boats in that direction. The 20 minute massages were offensive to say the least. I am not sure why Manuela did not provide us with a day at the spa, or an hour massage. Please keep in mind, there are four guests. She merely offered us two massages. She did not offer any of us a new room or make any suggestions. Rather, I demanded she provide us a pool room as we paid for. She would not. She advised us the Pool Rooms were for Royal Guests only, to which we were not advised in advance. Nevertheless, I provided the attached booking document and she did not care. I never got to speak to the Princess Del Mar Hotel Manager as I requested. Rather, they did all they could to ignore us and other guests.
5. I learned from other guests, Manuela merely provided 20 minute massages to those who demanded to speak to the Hotel Manager also. This was amazing to witness. If this was a response in Toronto and/or a 5 star Caribbean Resort, the Management Team and staff would be immediately fired. Not one guest was able to speak to the Hotel Manager. All front desk staff provided us with numerous excuses. One even told us the Hotel Manager was on vacation. It was evident each one was lying which was incredibly offensive, insulting and frustrating.
6. We had to leave notes for cleaner/maid to change our bathroom towels daily and, provide new beach towels. They were NOT changed. All they did was make the beds. No refill of water, beer, pop, etc. in fridge. I had to contact customer service every single day for basic necessities in the room. Our fridge was never fully stalked.
7. We asked for room service given we witnessed MANY servers taking food to the room. The hotel denied us of any room service. No room service at all in a five star hotel was shocking.
8. We had to ask for bottles of water and beer EVERYDAY from the front desk or customer service. They would not fill up our fridges with water or beer. We had to call each day and ask. They assured us we would receive this immediately but we had to wait the next day again.
9. I learned there are two phone numbers to call from the rooms. 700 for front desk, and 289 for customer service. Not all rooms have this information, including one of our rooms. As such, guests do no have this information. There were times I was calling both numbers for over an hour. No one would answer
10. There is NO COFFEE in the rooms? The hotel told us everyday there is no coffee or ketchup in the hotel to provide guests which was a lie. We witnessed ketchup bottles in some restaurants. Anna Marija and I demanded coffee machines for three days to which they eventually brought to each of our rooms on July 26th. One machine worked, they other did not. Again, room service never left coffee pods (which they had). I had to call over 3 times each day to demand they bring me coffee for my machine. They would leave ONE coffee pod the next day.
11. Toilets were not working in our rooms. We had to pour our own water from the sink to flush our toilets.
12. One of our rooms had bedbugs. We immediately told the front desk and they reported they were merely black flies. Anna Marija and Alexander were had bites all over their bodies (arms, legs, hands, feet). On July 31st, 2023, their doctor's in Toronto, ON confirmed they were indeed, bit by bedbugs, not black flies.
13. All customer service staff and front desk staff lied, made attempts to manipulate and/or avoid our suggestions and/or requests for help. Not one staff member did anything to alleviate our frustrations or make suggestions to ease our stay. I have never witnessed anything like this on any resort.
14. The food at Princess is bland and made many of us sick. All meals in the restaurants were too salty. Your chefs are not chefs. They are cooks and need to be trained well to accommodate your guests. We have been to Cuba over 15 times and never witnessed this before. We spent a day in downtown Varadero. The restaurants and food was fabulous for lunch and dinner. As such, not one excuse should be made regarding the food for your 5 star hotel.
15. The guests had absolutely no clue where the restaurants were, the entertainment schedule or what was open upon arrival. The front desk did not make any efforts to inform guests about ANY amenities, times of restaurants or entertainment. They merely had a screen which advertised yoga sessions in the morning. Rooms did not provide any pamphlets or information to inform guests. We all had to learn about the hotel amenities and restaurants amongst each other or randomly ask servers on the property. Upon arrival, not one staff member greeted us.
16. In asking staff for a transportation cart to take us from A to B (i.e. Hilltop Restaurant to our rooms), we would wait for over an hour each time. No one would confirm how long the cart would take. Rather, "they will be here soon." We would find the carts in front of they Royalton most times. Eventually, we learned to walk rather than ask for a cart.
17. The entertainment was awful. All guests would be informed by an entertainer an hour before the show, only if one was in the lobby. Given the hotel was empty, dry, dull and there were many angry, resentful and unhappy guests; many declined being present for much of the entertainment. We did not know about a piano bar that was merely opened one evening the entire week.
18. Not one guest was advised there were stingwrays in the water at your beach. One guest saw a stingray while in the water and never went near the beach again. Another was stung and was taken to emergency while we were there.
19. We learned there was new management at this hotel and new staff. As such, the hotel, customer service and lack of advertised amenities, restaurants and restaurant hours were falsely advertised.
Amongst the four of us, we have been on hundreds of vacations. This, by far, is the most terrible and distastefu all inclusive vacation we experienced. We talked and socialized with many, many guests at the pool and all discussed our terrible experiences . We have never seen such lazy, incompetent and unenthusiastic employees who did absolutely nothing to make our trip memorable, pleasurable and/or peaceful. It is a disorganized, dirty hotel with staff who do not accommodate, assist or welcome guests. It is deplorable this hotel is considered a five star. Your customer service staff should be fired.
I have never written an email like this following a vacation. I am livid, resentful and enraged we spent over $5000 to stay at a 5 star Melia hotel which felt like a 1 star Comfort Inn in Toronto. I learned there were less than 250 guests at your hotel while witnessing hundreds of other guests at alternative hotels lying on the beach resorts in Varadero. I trust not one guest will ever return to your Princess resort or use Sunwing in the future. Most servers and lifeguards reported and agreed the hotel is horrible and they are awaiting new management. They confirmed the hotel is a very bad reputation in Varadero.
Paradisus front desk and customer service staff should be fired and new staff must be professionally trained if this hotel remains open. I advised all of them all guests will return to Cananda and create poor reviews and deter anyone to use Sunwing or go to a Melia resort. They did not show any concern or interest. As you know, the Princess Del Mar poor reputation will spread like wildfire.
If we (4) of us do not get compensated, I will certainly post this email online and proceed further. We all desperately needed a relaxing vacation and we chose Melia. We regret this decision immensely. We feel sick and disheartened we used our hard earned money at your resort. We will never go to a Melia resort nor will we use Sunwing again. I will do everything in my power to deter anyone too.
I trust you will respond accordingly and provide full compensation to all four of us given our terrible experience. Some of the guests we spoke with are planning to sue Sunwing or ask for a full refund.
I await your response.
Respectfully,
Donna Dobrijevic, Anna Marija, Alexander and Natasha Maksimovic

Product and service with sunwing
My partner and I booked an all inclusive sunwing vacations to Mexico through sell of vacations recently in may 27th/June 3rd at Wyndham maya resort in Mexico
I have nothing but serious complaints about sunwing flight service and the resort for very good reasons
On the flight to cancun
1. The flight attendant ripped open the bag of coffe with his teeth and not used a scissors or his fingers as one would expect to open the coffee packet not just once but twice I saw him Doing this as I was waiting to use the toilet which is near the galley ! He then Proceeded to empty the contents in the coffee pot and filled it with water! He did it the second time ! He saw me watching him but continued as nothing was out of the ordinary for him ! Disgusting
At the resort
When we arrived at the resort we were taken by bus to the resort
When I arrived at my hotel I was worn out and tired after leaving Vancouver at 4 am to get to the airport for an 8 am flight So I fell asleep a after a shower
The next day I woke up with sniffles and asthma which is usually mean allergy for me
So I took the bedding covers and sheets off the bed and found that the mattress cover had old blood stains on it and so did the mattress itself had old blood stains and even what appeared to be mould! I took
Photos of these as proof
I was so appalled that I was sleeping such filt and paying good money for it and so I checked the other bed again the mattress had mould!
You would think that with covid closures in the industry Wyndham would have time to do a complete check of the stock ?
I went to talk with guest service and looking for sunwing representative about this. He was nowhere to be found so I left him a written message on his desk to discuss this issue !
When I did not get a reply to my message I talked with Guest services at the hotel and said they would handle the mattresses!
They changed them and the sheets but this should never happen The next issue was food I have allergies and the hotel was informed but I was constantly being given food which I was allergic too as it made me more sick than when I arrived! The service was awful because I was being lied to by them saying is itbis safe to eat I have celiac disease and allergies to Anything contains corn ! Here is my number call me or email me [protected] [protected]@gmail.com
Desired outcome: I need to discuss this serious matter and a complete refund of the holiday for both of us
Royalton bavaro punta cana
Stayed at this resort with a group of 21 family and friends and I traveled with my 1 and 2 year old children. The resort itself (rooms, facilities, pools, etc) were great but the service was awful. I had attempted to call the resort a few days before travel - nobody ever picked up the phone. When I came to check in I still was not able to be assisted regarding the room change I tried to all about prior - instead I waited at the desk for almost an hour in the heat only to be offered a change that would cost me hundreds of dollars more. The staff on the grounds were rude and obnoxious. For dining we always needed two high chairs for my kids and were met with attitudes, dirty chairs and no assistance with set up each time - they also refused to seat us at appropriate tables to accommodate our family. Additionally, when we attempted to arrange dining for our entire group the staff was somehow never able to accommodate us (blas and wandelis were especially rude). Wait staff was only courteous if they were tipped first. Finally - the staff stole $400 from my family member's suite - upon questioning the staff member admitted she entered the room despite the do not enter sign being posted - but she denied going in and stealing anything so the manager said there is nothing they can do and proceeded to direct my family member to the ATM. This same family member also organized the trip and discovered that the welcome basket left by her travel agent had also been stolen. I have never met such rude and obnoxious staff at any resort I've ever been to and its a shame because it really is beautiful but the staff made it such an ugly experience that I will never go back again.
Desired outcome: I would like to be refunded for having to pay for my husband's stay even though he was not able to attend. I could not reach anyone at the hotel prior to my arrival and upon arrival the front desk claimed they were unable to assist
Flight delay
WG620 was originally scheduled to fly from Toronto to Varadero on December 25, 2022 at 16:30 and was rescheduled to 6:15 then to 7:17 on December 26, 2022.
We lost one night of accommodation and a few meals. This was an all inclusive trip. We request a refund or credit for the lost time.

Flight and excursion
Sunwing had 2 flights going to Cancun. One at 11h and one at 9h. It charged and extra $50 for the 9am flight. Then a month before we fly they cancelled the 9am flight but never refunded me the extra $50 they charged for an early flight. So basically they charged a bunch of people an extra $50 and then denied the service and never reimbursed the cost. Then, in cancun, their representative sells us an excursion. It had costs for harbour fees. Now anyone would expect the harbour fees to be per boat at the very least. But the rep assured me this was not so. It was a one cost for the whole group payable at the excursion site. Guess what? Once at the site the operators tell us that the cost is per person. So basically the rep lied to us so we would buy his trip and he can make his cut. Once miles away at the operator we were left to have to deal with an extra $150 cost which had to be paid in cash, no credit card.
So I write to Sunwing and it takes them 5 months to send me a form letter that basically tells me they are not responsible for the operators of the excursion and that changes in schedule happen all the time and basically tough crap I’m not getting any customer service. Except it’s not just a change in schedule is it? They charged extra for the earlier flight and the operators are not the ones who lied to me about the price to any were they? Sunwing was responsible for both.
This company has gone downhill very fast over that last couple of years. They used to be one of the best but now I’d rather fly any other company, knowing that Sunwing are thieves and scammers. All I asked was the $50 back and an apology for the extra costs at the excursion. All I got was some bs 5 months after the fact.

RE starfish varadero cuba resort.
La semana pasada nos fuimos de vacaciones a su resort, y aunque la playa y piscinas las vacaciones fueron un desastre, y si usted no arregla esto y mucho más cosas del hotel, la gente va dejar de ir, gente se queda sin trabajo y les toca cerrar el resort.
Fuimos 12 personas con niños.
1. Su gente que trabaja en recepción la mayoría fueron groceros, si uno le preguntaba algo se hacían los tontos, y si era de habla en Inglés se hacían que no entendían. Un hombre tenía su taza de baño tapada por 3 días y no lo arreglaron hasta que esta mujer le tradujo no el le está diciendo de baño.
Mi habitación, el baño el descargo y una luz no servían, yo le reporte todos los días y nunca le arreglaron. Yo hablo perfectamente el español y inglés, y hablaba en español, dicen vamos a mandar al mechanico pero nunca lo arreglaron.
Mi habitación estaba tan sucia que les tocó mandar a limpiar, el polvo estaba acumulado detrás de la puerta y la pared donde se cuelga rompa llena de pólvo, yo creo que más de 6 meses esa habitación estaba sin uso. La tarjeta de la habitación se descargó 5 veces y me toco ir a perder mi tiempo en reception para que me la arreglaran y las señoritas me dieron problema para arreglar.
2. Yo mande 3 correos para que me acomodaran las 4 habitaciones juntas y cerca a la playa y piscina porque yo me estoy recuperando de una pierna rota, y soy senior, nunca me contestaron, desgraciadamente me otorgaron las habitaciones lo más lejos posible del ascensor en el tercer piso y para colmo un par de veces el elevador no servía, después llego ha saber qué esto pasa frecuéntemente.
2. Hace varios años you estuve haya, y me gusto por lo cual volví, en ese entonces tenían 5 restaurantes, ahora no tienen sino dos buffets y el restaurante italiano. El restaurante italiano la pasta estaba pasable, pero los dos buffet que comida tan desabrida y encima fue la misma comida todos los días. A usted le gustaría comer lo mismo todos los días? Porque esperar que los turistas coman lo mismo todos los dias, encima uno pude pollo use hacia I, al desayuno vamos a las 9am y no tienen muchas cosas que sacan a la 7am? eso no está bien. Yo le garantizo que la gente no vuelven.
3. El wi-fi no se que systema tiene pero si que también es pésimo, las personas que tenían iPhone de Apple, no se podían conectar toda la semana y se cortaba frquentemente y había que registrar el usuario otra vez y ese papelito que ustedes dan se borran los números.
4. Las toallas en la habitación para uno bañarse son pequeñas son de mano, como esperan que uno use esas toallas tan pequeñas para bañarse? Para el fin de semana NO habían toallas limpias conque poderme bañar porque la compañía no las había traído?!
5. Los pisos de los pasillos otro desastre, pisos rotos y manchados, el tapete sucio y roto, pienso debe ser original.
6. Desayuno no tienen café decente, es horrible!? El el bar del 2nd piso era la única parte que tenían café decente, porque no sirven de este café en el snack bar, restaurants, y en los buffets?
Nosotros pagamos mucho para ir a su resort, y yo se que no es 5* pero nunca me imagine que fuera tan pésimo.
attmte, turista Canadiense que NO volverá a su Resort, y voy a escribir un review público de esto y a Sunwing tambien.
Also upon leaving toronto, we had to wait 45 minutes late as the luggage was not loaded into the plane. coming back there was a delay of 2 hours. this is ridiculous. the bus was to pick us up at 6:40pm, showed up at 7:20pm, we didn't get a chance to have dinner as we were afraid to miss the bus. the flight was at 10:40pm, left at 11:15pm. the service at the hotel reception area was horrible, the people were ignorant and rude, the rooms and corridors were dirty and no towels, the food was lousy, everyday we had the same food if there was any left as they run out of this and that! I SHOULD GET MY MONEY BACK for such a horrible experience.
Desired outcome: PLEASE REFUND AND A RESPONSE.my email is [protected]@hotmail.com
stolen items on flight and no assistance just empty promises
Hi,
I have been going back and fourth with sunwing complaints until they finally said that they will send me an Etransfer for the stolen items (two pairs of designer sunglasses) from my suitcases from the flight that I took 4 months ago (march, 2023). After I provided my email address to send the Etransfer for they stopped replying and essentially blocked me from all forms of communication. I dont know who else to contact and have been trying for months. Any tips or advise?
Thank you!
Desired outcome: e-transfer $$$
Service client skills and gaslighting
Hi,
Booking number [protected] and [protected]
I initially booked 2 tickets (one includes 2 adults and the second 1 includes one adult) On the web site in the terms of the insurance there were the highest available on the website and written as cancellation prior to 3h before the trip. I called the agent to ask for another place because I could only find 2 places and confirmed that policy. I had two others calls in order to help me find another place
Today Monday 19 of June, I called because we wanted to cancel something came up in order to reschedule for after. I got the first agent saying that it is impossible and I explained to her everything and she said even if one of the agents confirmed it, it means nothing.
I asked several times to speak with the manager and then the manager saying her name is Tiana came in. It was the most horrible service client, this supervisor was in bad faith using mental tricks to misinform us.
I reexplained everything and while she was pretended that she wants to help, she kepts changing version making everything more confusing. For example, she was giving none complete information reading the notes out loud and after I told her that she can hear the 3 calls, she kept me on hold for more than 20min and came back inventing stories (like she pretended that they were only 2 calls and put the second real call as the first and the third real call as the second and made a invented completed summary)
When I told her that the first call is not the first call, she put me on wait for more than 20 minutes and came back for another storie (saying I was the one asking questions (meaning that it a nono) and that her agent misunderstood) so I told her that service client is made for client to ask questions. She then put me on hold for another 20 minutes without permission just to do so because I told her that it is my turn to speak that since one hour and 18 minutes she is the one leading the call and talking.
Here she made me feel worthless and miserable and did not help me at all. If we cannot call service client for help or count on their answers then what is it for ? I am at the moment very frustrated because I got no help and got gaslighted on top. With no refund, we are now forced to go on vacations
Desired outcome: Serious actions taking so that situation of agents especially the supervisor Tiana gaslighting clients does not happen (this is not normal or acceptable)Partial refund or full refund A call for apologies and to disucuss what happened
Royalton Chic Punta Cana
Hello,
Please see formal complaints filed with Marriott as well as the BBB, and posted on trip advisor and google
Please assist us to obtain resoluton.
Kind Regards,
Adine Miler
First I will start with the positives. Richard at the Swim up bar, Rosa who serves guests at the pool, the lovliest lady bartender in the casino, and the bartenders at the lobby bar. Our heartfelt thanks and god bless. Now to the rest of the nightmare that we had to return early from. Told hotel upon reserving that my mom was an 85 year old cancer survivor and we need accomodations near the lobby/pool. Nobody told me that the room we reserved was too far for her to walk from, upon which I would have cancelled the reservation. Asked for upgrade being Marriott Bonvoy member, was told that could be looked at upon check in. The Facts: 1) Staff did nothing to try to help us. No golf carts to give rides to guests. No offer to even drive her on of the small carts that did travel around by staff 2) Mother continued to struggle to walk, fell often and still no help 3) Pools were filthy. I cannot even articulate how filthy. Both my daughter and I have URINARY infections from the dirty water in the pools 4) All of us, as well as the friends we met at the resort suffered from stomach issues due to bad food 5) room had no toilet paper when we were suffering from stomach issues had to call numerous times and 1 hour + later was brought some, at which point, I do not even want to articulate the outcome 6) Please do not go to this resort. I have been to 7 islands and more than ten different resorts, and this was by far the worst I have ever been to 7) The supposedly exedited refund of 1500 USD is not an accurate number and 2100 USD had better be in my account by no later than this coming Monday or I am filing a dispute for the full amount with the bank
Desired outcome: Refund $2100 USD
Group travel representative
Hi
We happily booked our wedding package with Sunwing and invited our guests to join our wedding. booking number YYZ-[protected] & YUL-[protected].The procedure sounds so simple but in reality it is so complicated and this experience so far brings us lots of stress.
I request to change our representative Christine Hajjar for the following reasons:
1. It has been over weeks she didn't reply the email and answer the phone calls (her voice mail is always full)
2. The invitation email sent out is inaccurate.
We have the quote for three types of room but it only shows the quote of two types of room in the invitation.
We have two bookings, one departing from Montreal and the other one is from Toronto. The quotes of the room are very unclear because they are mixed with cities and one quote of the room doesn't indicate any cities.
3. Both our guests and me have been in the dark because no one can reach her
4. Guests want to pay for the trip or make the deposit, unfortunately Christine doesn't respond. I guess that's how sunwing loses business.
I really hope these issues can be resolved.
Grand memories santa maria
I just recently travelled with Sunwing on May 7th-18th for a 11 day vacation in Cuba Santa Maria. I booked an all inclusive package with hotel being Memories Paraiso. However, after being dropped off by the shuttle bus at 12:30 am we landed at a hotel called Grand Memories. We were told this is our stop and to check in at the reception. When I spoke to reception about having booked and paid for Paraiso I was told this is the resort that we are going to be staying at. I was so confused but at 12:30am I was too tired to deal with the problem. In the morning I went back for clarity and was told that Memories Paraiso was closed due to low season. I was shocked as I was never informed that the hotel that I paid for was not available for me to enjoy. My room at Grand memories was old, filthy with broken toilet and safe. They tried changing my room but the other rooms were the same condition and had broken AC and the other broken safe as well.
Anyway, my disappointment with Sunwing is that I met a few people at the resort that was sent an email prior to their vacation advising of the changes in their resort and were given an option to cancel the trip or stay at Grand Memories. Why was I not given this choice. I would have cancelled and opted for another trip at a later date. I would like some sort of compensation as my resort was more in price then Grand Memories and whether it would have been in the same shape I will never know as I never got a chance to see the resort that I paid my hard earned money to enjoy a 11 day vacation.
Additionally, we paid for Diamond Club which never existed as there was no private beach due to the DJ festival at the resort and concierge's were rarely present. I would like some sort of compensation for a false advertised all inclusive package trip offered by Sunwing.
Please if you could address my issue as soon as possible.
Cuba vacation from Halifax to Holgin Apr 16 - Apr 23
I booked vacation in Cuba for mi and my wife - booking [protected], invoice nr [protected], departure 16 Apr. From Halifax to Hoguin and return on 23th April from Hoguin to Halifax. The return flight was going to be at 10:55 PM Flight WG383 23th April with Sunwing Airlines. We left the hotel at 7.00 PM and got to the airport at 9.00 PM. After going though the customs we were waiting for our flight and turned out the flight was deleted and later on canceled. We spent half of the night at the airport and around 3 AM we were taken to a hotel and at 10 am left for airport for depature at 2 PM on April 24th that was delayed to almost 4 PM.
I would like to be compensated for the time waisted at the airport. It was a known problem - my friend took the same resort one week later and they didn't have to go through all of it. They just stayed in the hotel till next day. Maybe because he had the upgraded package.
Desired outcome: Compensation
Refund
I was a quest a royalton white sands resort from 4/14-4/18/2023. I book a birthday vacation at this resort. I was told that I had a luxury room with an ocean view. When I arrived at my room. I had small view of the ocean. There were no wash clothes in my room nor was there hot water. When I spoke with guest service I was told there are no wash clothes available and as far as the got water I was told that's how they take baths and shower in Jamaica. I stayed there until the 17th April then upgraded to the Blue Moon side from 4/16 to 18th. I scheduled a candle light dinner on the beach for Monday April 17th @ 6:30pm. I paid $300.00 . Due to the rain I called and canceled and told I would be refunded back my money. Once I return back to the US I contacted the resort several different times and was told there are no supervisor or managers on the resort. And I was told my several different employees that a manager will call me back. That never happen. Now a week of being back home I still have not received my refund nor has anyone from management contacted me back. If I do not get my money back I will have my attorney take legal actions. My email address is [protected]@gmail.com. I can be reached by phone at [protected].
Desired outcome: I want my refund and for all my headache and the level of unprofessional employees that I dealt with I would like to also be comp a vacation to make up for my birthday vacation being ruined.
