    Love the pool and entertainment

    Very good entertainment and shows. The trapeze team was great teaching me some fun skills to do and is also FREE, I trusted them with my life. My group and I had a great time and definitely one of the best Viva resort that we have visited out of 3.

    Amazing time .

    We stayed at the hotel from the 5th of October to the 15th . We are actually on our contacting flight to Nova Scotia right now . We had an amazing time celebrating our 40th anniversary the staff went above and beyond from the day we arrived ,from the anniversary banner on the door to the champagne 🍾 and food that was waiting for us in the room when we arrived . Pools and beach were amazing, and the weather was fantastic 👌 couldn't have asked for better . Food was really good we ate at the buffet mostly or the snack bar . The little coffee shop is good and also had pastries and sandwiches . The staff are wonderful and very helpful . We spent most mornings at the beach and afternoons at the adult pool Margarito at the adult pool bar is an amazing asset to this hotel ,he is so nice . We were always in bed early so can't comment on the night time shows . We also went to the sports bar for a while at night This hotel has the best of both worlds you can go to a quiet spot and relax or spend time at the main pool and enjoy the activities and music . Thank you for an amazing time and we will see you soon

    Fun for young and old

    This is exceptional fun for all ages. My children received a briefing beforehand, so the fun could start right away. A big thank you goes to Betinha, Mara, Valentina, Kristal, and Mat, who have mastered the art of motivation and safely guide young and old to a successful trapeze experience.
