Written by Rebecca Beaton | Mar 18, 2020

 RIVERSIDE RESORT CLEANING & SANITATION  (UPDATED 29th November 2021) 

Throughout the duration of the Covid-19 pandemic, management and staff at the Riverside Holiday Resort have the Health & Safety of our guests and staff as our primary priority.

We would like to reassure you that we are taking the following precautions to ensure we are doing all we can to minimise the chance of the virus entering our resort, and to prevent the spread both within our resort and the local community. 

Our holiday accommodation is self-contained which means guests can easily comply with any government social distancing regulations in effect at any given time, as well as apply their own measures to keep themselves and their families safe while holidaying with us in Urunga if all restrictions have been lifted.

Should you develop symptoms while staying at our resort please inform management via phone on 02 6655 3911 so extra precautions can be taken to minimise the risk to other guests and our staff. Our resort staff will provide you with details for the closest testing centre available at the time. 

The following are our cleaning and sanitation procedures at Riverside Holiday Resort Urunga:

 

Stage 1 – COVID-19

Cleaning & Sanitation Procedures 

All railings, door handles, hard surfaces, white goods, light switches, bedding, lounges and outdoor areas are sprayed with a commercial-grade, Germguard sanitiser product prior to cleaning.
