Abinader starts the countdown of Katmandu Park

The Meliá Hotels Internacional chain inaugurated Falcon’s Resort by Meliá in the presence of President Luis Abinader. Furthermore, it dealt the first blow to the Paradisus Punta Cana hotel’s reconstruction and began the countdown to the opening of Katmandu Park. During an intense weekend, President Abinader participated in three different scenarios with Minister Collado and the Escarrer family that summarize the largest Spanish hotel chain’s confidence in the country’s competitiveness, social security (an aspect highlighted by Gabriel Escarrer on several occasions), and the opportunity for the Dominican Republic to establish itself as the leading Caribbean destination in sustainability.

Similarly, he explained that there will be many experiences, as well as associated technologies, between the hotel and the park, and that it will be very different from what the Dominican Republic has today in terms of tourism, with both the hotel and the park having different standards than the existing tourist offers.
