I never considered bad reviews before going to this hotel. Besides the shows and the natural beauty of the beach everything else to to run away from. The rooms are dirty, the beds are very unconfortable with very very old and stained sheets and dirty. The towels are so old and stained that you have to use them with the... More

The outdoor activities were a blast. We had so much fun. Alvin from the beach bar and jose from the... More

We stayed at Grand Paradise Samana for 2 weeks at the end of November and early December. We were with a group of 22 people. Check in was pretty simple as you recieved your room and info package on the bus trip to the resort. You only had to go to reception if a change was required. Reception, I found... More

This hotel should be rated 2/3 stars. We arrived on Monday and we stayed in building # 7. The building is newer, but the rooms are dirty. There were no box springs on the beds and the mattresses were on the floor. Within 20 minutes of being there we killed 2 roaches. We went to the desk to complain and... More

Started off on the wrong foot when Sunwing changed the ft. times AFTER booking. Arrived home at 2:45 a.m. instead of 11:55 p.m. They basically cost me another day off work. The ft. down was on a plane that felt like a 30 year old school bus. The fact that parents and the staff let kids run up and down... More

Please, take my advice. The resort is listed as wheelchair accessible, but is not. Rough pats, no ramps, real suffering for the disabled person and the caregiver. The sea water very dirty. Flooding toilet paper, plastic bottles and foam cups. And the most important – never, never buy anything from the merchants that will bother you!!! The so called silver... More
