Most holiday resorts we have visited over the years would have someone complaining about bed bugs on Trip Advisor, we never experienced it at any place we have visited but it seems like some people do in certain rooms of the resorts. We have been lucky thus far.

The list is based on treatment data from the metro areas where Orkin says it performed the most bed bug treatments from December 1, 2021 through November 30, 2022. The ranking includes both residential and commercial treatments.
Contrary to popular belief, bed bugs are visible to the naked eye, but are excellent at hiding.
Bed bugs are about 3/16 of an inch long and are red to dark brown in color. They are typically nocturnal and come out of hiding to eat blood from sleeping humans. Blood is their only food source.
Bed bugs typically travel by clinging onto items such as luggage, purses and other personal belongings. And they don’t need to eat often. They can actually survive for several months without blood.
Here is the Orkin bed bug cities list for 2023:
