For 8 years now, we have been spending every year 4 weeks’ vacation at Grand Paradise Samana. It is always with the same satisfaction that we enjoy the place: great nature, nice surrounding, helpful management and staff team, relaxing and friendly atmosphere, well organized animation.
We ‘d like to congratulate the great service of i.e. the general manager Heny, as well as Roberto, Samuel, Noris, Leocalina, Sandy Anisio, Youseepe, Maldonado, Wendy etc. (different members of the staff team).
We are really looking forward to come back as often as possible in the years to come.
