Some additional<\/span><\/span> strengthening is <\/span><\/span>possible<\/span><\/span> and it will be a Category 4 hurricane when <\/span><\/span>makes landfall<\/span><\/span>.<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

Mandatory evacuation order for Cancun Hotel Zone and Puerto Morelos<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

Due to the forecast track and strength of this storm, the government ordered the mandatory evacuation of Cancun Hotel Zone. <\/span><\/span>G<\/span><\/span>uests at The Royal Sands, The Royal Islander and The Royal Cancun <\/span><\/span>have been moved <\/span><\/span>to designated hurricane shelters in three colleges in Downtown Cancun. <\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

An evacuation order <\/span><\/span>was also<\/span><\/span> issued for hotels in Puerto Morelos and guests at Grand Residences <\/span><\/span>have been<\/span><\/span> taken<\/span><\/span> to The Royal Haciendas, which is a designated hurricane shelter. <\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

Royal Resorts <\/span><\/span>has made the necessary preparations to face this contingency. <\/span><\/span>The<\/span><\/span> wellbeing<\/span><\/span> of our guests<\/span><\/span> is our utmost concern and we have taken measures to keep <\/span><\/span>them<\/span><\/span> safe and to make <\/span><\/span>them<\/span><\/span> as comfortable as possible in the hurricane shelters, all of which have been equipped with emergency supplies and sleeping pads. Brigades of staff will be on hand in the shelters to take care of <\/span><\/span>them<\/span><\/span>. Social distancing will be respected and the use of <\/span><\/span>face masks<\/span><\/span> is mandatory.<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
