Pacific Resort Hotel Group’s COVID-19 update

Kia Orana from the Cook Islands,

In these uncertain times, I wanted to reach out to you personally about what we are doing at Pacific Resort Hotel Group to support you and your travel plans to the Cook Islands. As the situation around novel coronavirus (COVID-19) continues to evolve, we are doing everything we can to ensure your travel safety and provide maximum flexibility.

At this point in time we are fortunate the Cook Islands are currently free of COVID-19, and our government, people and resorts are doing all we can to keep it this way for as long as possible.

Your Travel Safety
As it has always been, the safety and security of our guests and team members remains our highest priority. We take great pride in maintaining the highest standards of cleanliness and hygiene. In response to COVID-19, we have taken additional measures to make our cleaning and hygiene protocols even more rigorous:

These include:
• Our resort teams are receiving ongoing daily briefings and enhanced operating procedures.
• We have increased the frequency of cleaning our public areas (including lobbies, door handles, public bathrooms, etc.) and have continued to use hospital-grade disinfectant standards.
• We have increased the deployment of antibacterial hand sanitisers.

Your Travel Flexibility
Given these unique circumstances we are making additional adjustments to our individual booking policies to give you extra peace of mind:
• Government Travel Restrictions. We will waive our standard date change and cancellation policies if you are denied entry into the Cook Islands as a result of COVID-19 travel restrictions imposed by our government and will assist you to rebook for alternative date. We are currently working on travel dates to 30 April 2020.
If you need to make a change to your reservation and booked this directly with Pacific Resort Hotel Group, please contact our central reservation team on: reservations@pacificresort.com

If you have booked through another travel site or travel agent please contact them direct for assistance.

At Pacific Resort Hotel Group, we believe it is in challenging times like these that the power of hospitality is needed most of all. Whether you are travelling now or in future, our team are ready to welcome you with the wonderful Kia Orana spirit you have come to expect.

Aro’a nui (warm regards),
Marcus Niszow
Chief Executive Officer – Pacific Resort Hotel Group

TRAVEL ASSISTANCE

We will waiver our standard cancellation policy if you are denied entry into the Cook Islands as a result of Coronavirus travel restrictions imposed by our government and will be delighted to assist you to rebook for alternative date. We are currently working on dates to 30 April 2020.

GUEST CARE

Hand Sanitizer is available in all public areas of our properties.
We encourage regular use of this product at all times for staff and guests alike.

ROOM & PUBLIC AREA CARE

All of our rooms are held to an exacting level of hygiene and cleanliness.

We are also vigilent with thorough sanitizing practices in all rooms, public areas and ‘back of house’ for your safety.

PEOPLE ARE OUR PRIORITY

We know this is an unsettling time. Please rest assured that we are doing all we can to ensure our current and future guests are well supported.

If your travel is still some time in the future, we recommend waiting until closer to departure to make any decisions, rather than changing your travel plans now.
