The resort offers 530 rooms spread over 105,000 m², including colonial-style buildings and tropical bungalows with palm leaf roofs. Guests have access to 5 restaurants and 4 bars, with buffet dining and several a la carte options available. The resort's facilities include four swimming pools, a spa center, fitness center, and various sports activities like tennis, volleyball, and snorkeling.

Located in La Romana near Bayahibe, the resort sits only 90 meters from Playa La Laguna, a sandy beach on the Caribbean Sea. It is 10 km from Casa de Campo International Airport (LRM), making transfers relatively short. Nearby dining options within 150 meters include restaurants La Roca, L' Ombelico Del Mundo, and Da Elio, all rated 8/10.

The property is situated on the first coastline, offering direct beach access and oceanfront bungalow options.

This resort is the dirtiest resort.I've ever been to. Absolutely nobody speaks english nobody. And this is not and all inclusive resort. They say they have all these restaurants. Well, you can only go to 2 of them. Bathroom ceiling fell on my head.But nobody cared. This steps outside my ocean front bungalow, which is a joke, has steps. The first step that you step onto it is a thirty to thirty five degree angle which me and my wife fell on the first day.We were here full of sand and an angle that's impossible to step onto. You haveyou've got kids ping all over the beach. Some of the most rudest people i've ever scene in my life. The food is by far the worst.I have ever tasted in my life. It's an island on an ocean, but they do not have any fresh fish. They don't have any fresh meat. They serve only food that has been frozen.There is nothing fresh here. Don't understand how you cannot have fresh fish on an island sickening. I seriously, very seriously would not come back to this piece of garbage resort. If it was free, I wouldn't come back. If you're smart, you will avoid probably all of the Viva. Resorts, because talk to people that bin to a couple because they're locked in on a timeshare, and they say they're all garbage. And that's sickening for the money that they charge. And I was here for three weeks and I was charged $15000
By a travel agent that didn't know anything about this resort.But said that she did. That travel agent is a travel connection and the person there Becky wide about everything. Because, without the super vip, you can't do anything. You have to get app at 6 in the morning to be able to get a cot, because there's not enough chairs, and they'll help people to save him, which is sickening. This resort and the entire Viva franchise. Stay away from it'll be the worst time. And the biggest waste of money you've ever spent in your life.

Great stay , horrible food
15.12.2025 Guest
Beautiful resort nestled in a tropical garden, on a wide sandy beach. But that's already in the description. For the price, the room was nice but cramped for four people. Infested with cockroaches... both on the floor and in the furniture. When we notified the hotel in the middle of the night, they sent three guys to kill them. They killed two, but we had seen three. The third hadn't been killed. No concrete help, just the fear of sleeping in the room for another two nights. Don't go.

Terrible, don’t know where to start:
1. Everyone got food poisoning/gastro (group of 13, we all got it). 3/4 groups of people we met during the holiday also did. Apparently they closed the place earlier in the year because of this issue, cleaned it all, left it closed for 2 months, then re-opened. The issue persists. Likely because of the poor igiene.
2. We asked for laundry service. It was promised to us 3 days in a row, saying they’d make it their top priority. Never got our clothes cleaned. Had to clean them in the sink.
3. Our safe stopped working with our passports inside. It took 3 days and us calling or visits the front desk 5 times before they actually sent someone to help. Twice I waited 1.5 hours in the room for security, who never came, despite the multiple calls.
4. The whole place smells of rotten eggs from 6 to 9 am every morning.
5. The beach is covered in trash (in large part because of the awful guests). Cigarette butts in the sand, hair, plastic. Don’t let your kids play in the sand or they’ll find either cigarette butts or hair every 2 minutes.
6. Super loud music everywhere. You come to the tropic to relax, and instead there’s hyper loud bad DJs mixing songs and yelling over the music. You hear the music from most places in the resort.
7. The food is foul. Like, not good. The meat is either undercooked (usually the chicken), or harder than leather. The cheeses are tasteless, pancakes are served frozen, and there is a loooot of food waste and poor food hygiene.
8. The staff is quite rood/unhappy. You often ask things and they ignore you, or look at you in the eyes, turn, and do something else.
9. The beach is nice, but the hundreds of people, the very loud music, and the trash make it hard to enjoy it.
10. It is hard to do the activities. My sister booked for a tennis lesson and the teacher never showed up. Something you book the tennis pitch for an hour but there’s no one to give you the rackets and balls. We tried getting balls for the table soccer and had to go to 4 different desks, everybody sent us elsewhere, and eventually they asked for our passport? I’m in an all inclusive village, why should I carry around my passport to play the games.

Do not recommend

It was an overall okay experience. The water is fabulous, crystal clear and warm. However, the sand beach is limited and therefore crowded and loud. There are other parts in the property that are less crowded but no sand in the water, it’s all rocks. Also, dining in the main room, la terrazza, is so messy, no tables ready, no napkins, no cutlery, glasses, just chaos. Luckily enough we found the other buffet, la Roca, which has limited options but quiet. We discovered we could only book 3 restaurants for a 6 nights stay only when there and my husband got sick from something he ate during an excursion booked with the resort (1 more person got sick as well from the same trip). People are expecting tips even when not necessary. Staff is just on their own time and feels like you are not a priority, many times they had an attitude that wasn’t welcome!

After reading so many of the latest comments… I can just agree with how unfriendly are the people who works there. The staff try so hard to sell us a membership and got rude when I refuse to get a membership!!!
About the location, it’s beautiful, the beach is beautiful!
About the food… my dad got food poisoning the first day! The food is definitely not a good quality, and the food is just sitting all day until someone take it :/
The drinks are with water…
I do not recommend this hotel for sure.
14.08.2025 Mariana
For an "all inclusive" it lacked everything!
Upon arriving they did not welcome us with a drink or even water.

Me and my girlfriend were offered a day pass in this hotel in order to be presented the rooms and the viva member program. Therefore we have no reason to be untruthful in the negatives. We honestly thought the infrastructure was very nice especially. The people that we interacted with were generally quite welcoming and friendly. We spoke only Spanish during our stay. The stores inside have higher prices than the stores in the walkway outside, of course, but have more different things if you’re interested in souvenirs. However, the food was quite meh and I am a person that will eat anything. But the two main problems for me were the INCREDIBLE quantity of bees especially in the central area of bar, pool, beach and restaurant. You could not sit in peace and drink or eat. Also, the beach is overfilled with beds without not even one beach umbrella. Zero sunshade. If you’re into becoming a big pepper then this place is for you.

We honestly preferred spending our money outside and renting our personal umbrellas by the public beach which is also less filled of rocks than the big beach at the viva.

We’ve just returned from a wonderful vacation – it’s been about a week since we got back, and we still think back on it with great memories. We had a really great time. The hotel staff was kind and helpful, and we were very satisfied with the service. The room could perhaps use a little update, but overall, it was absolutely fine. The food was delicious, and there was a wide selection, so everyone could find something tasty to enjoy.

PERFECT LOCATION, LIKE THE BEACH, THE STAFF AND ROOMS. THE FOOD OPTION OK, BREASKFAST IS THE BEST OF THE FOOD OPTIONS
