December 31, 2024 Sandals Resort Manager- Montego Bay RE: Recent Stay December 23, 2024-December 29, 2024 Room #702 Dear Sir/Madame, Thank you providing my husband and I with the perfect 25th wedding anniversary celebration. We enjoyed the resort very much. There was on issue that I literally lost sleep over. Upon visiting the Macaws, I was startled when I saw the condition of their habitat. Upon this discovery I stood by the cage for several minutes and calmly asked the guests if this display added to the enjoyment of the Sandals experience. The most astonishing comment I received was “if I was those birds I would wish for death.” Another guest became outraged, and she immediately went to the front desk to file a complaint. I am not a PETA or animal activist; however, I felt the strong desire to be the voice of these magnificent creatures. The condition of the cage (filthy, too small with sharp nails and objects, no fresh food) A guest assisted me in changing the filthy water as several guests looked on. We were all astonished. With a very sad heart that has literally brought me to tears, I am hopeful that you will reconsider your treatment and habitat for these birds. I would be happy to research sanctuaries or other options for these creatures that deserve so much more that Sandals is providing. I look forward to your response. Happy New Year. Respectfully, Kathy Chilson & Blake Horrell
