West Beach Parks Clean­li­ness State­ment and Action Plan

Here at West Beach Parks, the safe­ty, comfort and enjoy­ment of our guests and team is our priority.

Every day, we main­tain the high­est stan­dards of clean­li­ness and hygiene through­out our precinct to ensure a safe and stress free expe­ri­ence for all who stay, work and play with us.

With the ongoing chal­lenge of COVID-19 and the full reopening of SA’s borders, we have in place specific conditions of entry, continue to adhere to and enforce SA Government restrictions across the precinct and continue to implement strict and robust clean­ing pro­to­cols in addi­tion to our already thor­ough processes.

Pub­lic spaces:
We have increased the fre­quen­cy of clean­ing and dis­in­fect­ing in all our pub­lic areas, includ­ing our camp kitchen, com­mu­nal bath­rooms, pool area and recep­tion areas. You’ll also find hand sani­tis­ers through­out the site and we have strict social dis­tanc­ing require­ments through­out the precinct.

Guest Accommodation:
In addi­tion to our already rig­or­ous clean­ing process­es, addi­tion­al dis­in­fect­ing process­es have been imple­ment­ed in our guest accom­mo­da­tion. Every cab­in, eco-tent, shack and bath­room is cleansed after guests depart and before new guests arrive. All areas are thor­ough­ly cleaned with increased atten­tion to hard to get to and high touch surfaces.

Behind the scenes:
We’ve also made changes in our back of house areas. We have increased the fre­quen­cy of clean­ing and dis­in­fect­ing with a focus on high touch areas includ­ing entrances, lock­er rooms, linen rooms, bath­rooms and offices and of course food prepa­ra­tion areas. All our staff have received addi­tion­al train­ing on all clean­ing pro­ce­dures and per­son­al hygiene requirements.

FAQs…what you need to know

What do you do when there is a positive COVID-19 case at West Beach Parks?

At West Beach Parks the health and wellbeing of all those who stay and work with is paramount.

Increasing community transmission of COVID-19 means that West Beach Parks, like accommodation providers around the country, continues to see an escalation in the number of guests testing positive for COVID-19.

On most occasions the affected guest has contacted us to advise of their positive result.

Until now, we have immediately advised all guests and staff once we become aware of these cases and shared all we know. As the number of cases in SA increases, it is no longer practical for us to do this.

The open air and self-contained nature of our accommodation means exposure within our precinct is relatively low risk.

As such, unless explicitly directed by SA Health, we will no longer contact those who were onsite at the time of the exposure.

We instead ask all onsite to take a sensible approach and adhere to the social distancing requirements, respect capacity limits, follow hygiene protocols onsite and, as directed by SA Health, monitor for symptoms and test as necessary.

We, in turn, will continue our commitment to our COVIDSafe management plan, which includes rigorous hygiene and cleaning protocols and processes.
