Hyatt to offer free COVID-19 testing at Latin American resorts

Hyatt Hotels has announced that they will offer free on-site COVID-19 testing at all their Latin American resorts through May 31, 2021. The tests will be offered to guests traveling to the United States after their stay.

The offer is for 19 Hyatt resorts in Mexico, Costa Rica, the Caribbean, and South America, and will be valid for up to two guests per guestroom.

“Everything we do is grounded in listening and fueled by care. Our new complimentary COVID-19 testing and Travel Delay Rate provide travelers with added confidence, peace of mind and convenience when staying at or considering travel to Hyatt properties in Latin America,” said Mark Vondrasek, chief commercial officer of Hyatt. “We are leading with safety first and wellbeing always with creative, innovative solutions and look forward to expanding testing options to more Hyatt guests and hotels across the Americas and globally in the near future.”

In early January. the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention’s (CDC) announced a new requirement that anyone arriving in the United States, including U.S. citizens, need to be tested (and show a negative result) within three days of returning to the country.

Minimum length stay requirements for the free test will vary by property, but guests may also purchase additional tests at their hotel or resort.
