“We are excited to announce that Bernard Sarme is joining the Magdalena Grand family,” said John Murphy, principal at efm Hospitality Solutions. “Bernard’s extensive resume is second to none and we’re confident that the Magdalena Grand will thrive under his leadership.”
Sarme’s hospitality career has included stints in Anguilla, Bora Bora and Egypt, among other stops.
