Renko added the resorts have generators but many have stopped working and most restaurants have closed. He said it’s been difficult to find a bottle of water.“I have a hundred people here in the resort wanting to leave, I have their names everything oh…there you go the power is out again,” he said in a zoom interview with Global News, as his hotel room suddenly went dark. ” There goes the air conditioning for the night,” he sighed.
