Coral Reef Club is offering two employees who provide proof that they have received COVID-19 vaccinations a chance to win $500.

An internal letter to staff was widely circulated via social media on Monday, one day after it was issued.

In the letter, the directors of the hotel indicated that 114 staff members out of 210 were vaccinated against the viral illness.

“We encourage you to take the vaccine not only for your own protection, but for the protection of your co-workers and loved ones also,” the letter said.

It added that all staff, except senior management, who have received at least one vaccination by June 30 would be eligible to win.

“Team members must have had at least one government-approved vaccination by that date and have confirmed this to us,” the letter said.

The draw will take place on Monday, July 5.
