not only the hotel but some of the villas at the cliff have these suspicious pipes !
Well we won't be staying there for another 2 years so hopefully it will get sorted maybe?
We are hopefully going to pop over late October this year to sort some things out maybe we could do a poo check then see how apparent the poo is
I don't see much point in saying I'm not staying there if it doesn't affect me when it seems a lot of other places are doing it too! Walking past the Bahamas hotel in pdb every night was traumatic enough the stink coming from the cess pit or whatever it was, although I don't think that was their fault.
Thanks for the info SSK
