The staff was very nice. The food at the a la carte restaurants was good but the buffet is small and offers few options. We were not able to enjoy the private pool area at the back of our room because my husband and I are non smokers and the people in the rooms next to ours were constantly smoking out there so it was very unpleasant for us. We asked for a room change but had the same problem in the new room. I wish the resort had designated non smoking rooms. Other than that we enjoyed our stay.

As soon as we arrived, Luis from guest services immediately took care of us. From start to finish he was nothing but smiles and has a friendly demeanor- it definitely made the experience better. The entire staff, when greeting, was incredible friendly. Any issues that we had, like being short on towels, WiFi connectivity, pool light not functioning, etc… Luis was always there to help out- Very very nice job! Moreover, the restaurants prepared the meals really well and the plating/presentation of the food was very nicely done. However , we weren’t a big fan of the Buffett and snack bar area - if there is any recommendation for improvement, this is where I would begin. All and all the experience was nice.

As with all other reviews, this one has it's good points and bad points and of course it all depends on the individual. First of all is the transport. Keep in mind that Viva is quite a bit away from airports. do not fly in to POP (Puerta Plata). the trip in was so long Viva had to hire an outside taxi to take us and bring us back. The ups - the weather - gorgeous and calm 24/7 and very little wind. It felt like we died and were in heaven. The lounging areas - It was nice not to have to fight for a chair. There seemed to be plenty on both the beach and pool. They had cabanas and they were free. Just claim yours early. The bad - the food. They have 3 special restaurants that you have to make reservations for right away but don't bother. After the first one we had to go to the buffet to eat because the portions were small. The second restaurant was so late in delivering we left after an hour because the main meal was not served and the third restaurant was also ditto. The buffet had a lot to choose from but nothing much that we liked. The room - our thermostat did work right so we were either cold or hot. Don't get a room with a pool cuz the pool is very small and cold. Entertainment was good and every night but keep in mind that they will blast dance music until the wee hours. if you can choose a room find one far away at the end. Overall - it was one of the most beut.stays but also one we won't go back to. need better food and more quiet.

Absolutely awful experience. Cats everywhere. Traveling with someone who is allergic to cats, it was unacceptable for staff to be encouraging the cats to come into the restaurants. Can't have a meal without a cat jumping on your chair. Staff – Inattentive staff with a lack of commitment to quality service. Simply put, they did not care to provide any customer service / experience at all. Rooms – Pretty accurate to the photos shown however the sheets felt so dirty and the towels had an awful stench to them. We were absolutely repulsed sleeping in the beds. Food Drinks – Awful. The buffet was some of the worst food we have ever eaten. Absolutely no taste to it. - The chef making omelettes for breakfast didn’t even have gloves or a hair net in and would wipe his nose with his hands in between serving omelettes, would also take cash tips and continue using that hand to prep food. Absolutely nauseating. - Plates, Glasses and Silverware - Constantly dirty, we had to ask for clean utensils and glasses almost everyday because what we were getting served on was dirty. Pool – Beautifully built however the water looked so dirty we didn’t even dare to get in. Extremely murky. Beach – Beautiful views however the beach area was always dirty. Trash not cleaned up during the day from guests leaving the beach early, glasses from day before when you arrived in the morning ,etc. Would not recommend to anyone!

They robbed me of the additional services I paid for. First I got the wrong room upon arrival I worked with it. I paid for a welcome birthday package they literally had 6 regular balloons at that’s it. Paid for dinner on the beach, heavy rain so they reached for the next day. Next day came they can no longer do it and promised to refund. I reached out to them multiple times for the refund submitted receipts and it’s 7months later NO REFUND. Food and fruits had no flavor, those who knew English failed to speak it good think I understand some things though I didn’t know how to reply. Swim up pool for bungalow you can’t swim it’s very narrow and shallow. I got catfish.
