I have been wanting to ask if anyone else had been sick but was hesitant to bring it up on this board for fear it would cause people to rethink their vacation plans. As it is now out in the open here is a quote from Owcangrace's Jan 26-Feb 2nd trip report. "Bad - There was a bug going around or food poisoning occurred as many people experienced vomiting and diarrhea and the nurses station stayed busy. We feel it could probably happen anywhere but it happened so it can’t be a plus. We lost 2 days between us to the issue as did a LOT of couples.
I was there Feb 3-10 Sunday through Sunday. First off don't try to tell me that we drank too much or had too much sun. We spend our entire lives drinking too much and when the season allows, having too much sun. Anyway on Tuesday night my wife started to not feel herself. I encouraged her to not worry about it. We had reservations at the Japanese restaurant and we went down to the main lobby early for mre a drink and her a ginger ale. About 10 minutes later she had to go back to the room becuase she felt weak. I went back and cancelled our reservation and got her a plate of assorted food and when i got back she told me she had vomited 5 times. The rest of the evening she was somewhat better and my morning she was functional.
On Friday, lobster night about 4 o'clock I started to feel nauseous. Since I never feel this way, I mean never, (if I puke once every 4 years its a big deal) I immediately knew I had what she had. I thought I can probably fight the urge to puke and manage to make a night of it. Well, we get to the main lobby and the smell of the lobster immediately makes me want fresh air. I didn't want to ruin her night so she and some friends went ahead and ate while I sat outside on one of the beds sipping ginger ale. I started to get the urge to puke so I camped out behind the bathroom on the tennis court bleachers. Why didn't i go back to my room you ask? Because we were moved to breezes because of overbooking due to the snowstrom on the east coast. Anyway after trying to fight it i just went in a puked about 5 or 6 times. I told myself, "well that should do it, I should feel fine now". My wife came and checked on me and i told her, i'll be fine in 15 minutes or so go back and have fun. Well in 20 minutes I was back puking. We then went to the nurses office and she really didn't have any answers. A friend of ours had heard there had been 60 visits to the nurses office with similar complaints in the past weeks. We then went across the road to our room and I had another episode of 5 to 6 times. I thought I 'm going to bed but another 30 minuted later I was heaving my guts out for the last time. I woke up the next morning with extreme acid reflux/heartburn and had to eat tums and prilosec while sitting upright on the edge of the bed groaning. The whole next day was screwed up because my stomach was so raw. I coudln't eat or drink hardly anything. By Sunday morning I was 100% again. From what i could find on my own research it was most likely some form of norovirus.
I must say that we still had a great time and coulnd't have that much fun anywhere else and are looking forward to going back next year. Hopefully with new management any food related issues have already or will be dealt with by then.
So do whatever it takes
'Cause you can't rewind a moment in this life

Rule #1) Never argue with an idiot. They pull you down to their level, then beat you with experience.
we never had a problem in Jan. sorry to here that alot of you are sick... we are heading back in jan 2014 and looking forward to it.... we hope that everyone is feeling better soon....
I hate to ask the question but did anyone who got sick get a flu shot this year? Lots of times these sorts of "bugs" start on the airplane on the way down and then take a few days to actually manifest themselves and spread to others. Our experience has usually been that those with the flu shot in their system usually get passed over by these bugs.

I felt fine after my Amigo trip. Sometimes I have gotten the " crud " but not this trip. I do tend to lose my voice usually halfway thru the trip sometimes.
