TL;DR
Rotavirus can occur at seaside resorts, and transmission may be more likely in family-focused hotels with many children. Pack a basic travel kit with an oral sorbent and doctor-recommended medicines, and report poor room cleaning to reception immediately.
For a possible stomach infection, travelers recommend carrying a small kit with Smectite, Polysorb or activated charcoal, plus medicines such as Adisord and Furazolidone. Check contraindications and follow medical advice before using any medication.
Travelers report that family-oriented hotels with many young children may have a higher chance of rotavirus spreading, since an illness in one child can be passed on more easily among other guests.
If a room is dirty at check-in and initial requests are ignored, contact reception again and ask for a full cleaning rather than a superficial clean of only part of the room.
