Mexico’s Velas Resorts now offers in-house COVID-19 antigen testing for guests. As of January 26th, the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) requires all US residents traveling back to the US to present documentation of a negative COVID-19 test. Testing in accordance with the new CDC requirements is available onsite at the resort collection’s six properties, in Los Cabos, Riviera Maya, Riviera Nayarit, and Puerto Vallarta. For guest comfort and convenience, certified medical workers from the local affiliated hospital come to the hotels to perform the test. The COVID-19 antigen test is included in the nightly rate and results are sent by email within 24 hours.
If a traveler tests positive for COVID-19 and requests to extend a reservation at one of the hotels, Velas Resorts offers a 75% discount on its listed web rates. An extra suite is also offered for the person who received a positive result to safely and securely quarantine separate from their family or other traveling companions if they choose. Designated suites are reserved away from other guests with strict Covid protocols in place. Stay will be subject to European Plan or All-Inclusive based on the hotel’s current offering for up to 14 nights.
Velas Resorts have received the global safety stamp of approval from the World Travel and Tourism Council (WTTC) due to its state-of-the-art safety and cleanliness protocols detailed in a 15-page Stay Safe with Velas program. Sanitizing mats and booths, touchless hand sanitizing dispensers, increased cleaning and sanitation with both EPA-chemicals, and special COVID-19 training for staff are examples of protocols being implemented by the resort collection. In addition to the antigen testing, PCR testing (for Canadian residents) is also available onsite or at a local hospital. Cost and results turnaround is based on each destination.
