Overview

• Regional health authorities report over 100 people with gastroenteritis symptoms linked to the Hotel Cavanna in La Manga del Mar Menor.
• Emergency services mobilized five advanced life support units and multiple ambulances to treat guests on site and in their rooms.
• Twenty patients, including children and a 15‑month‑old, were taken to Hospital Santa Lucía; all were discharged except two under observation and none in serious condition.
• A temporary treatment area was set up inside the hotel, and the dining room—after serving a group of about 400—was later closed for sanitary inspection.
• Inspectors are collecting samples of served foods and testing food handlers to pinpoint the source, while some guests cited a Saturday lunch item such as fish or spinach pasta without official confirmation.
