My girlfriend and I have just returned back from 10 days at the Viva Maya and was quite impressed on the whole with the resort. The food buffet was good compared to other all inclusive hotels we have stayed in and there was a good selection of different foods. What we were expecting was the buffet resturanant to air con...

We can really recommend this hotel. The beach was wonderful, the rooms were always clean and the food was delicious, especially in the a-la-carte restaurants. The service people were in a very good mood and also very friendly. We dived at the dive center "underwater technical world" which is located immediately beside the hotel. The diving trips were really well... More

Stayed here May 4th for one week. Liked it a bit more than the Azteca, probably because my family was there. My first time in Mexico, not much of a partier or drinker, so my review may not help you if you want to party. Good Stuff - Beach is amazing, with little huts put up for extra shade (great... More

My wife and I just returned from a 5 day honeymoon Viva Wyndham Maya resort. This was my wife's first time in Mexico, and my first stay in Playa Del Carmen. The beach is absolutely beautiful. White sands and beautiful blue waters. The pool area is nice as well. There are plenty of lounge chairs with nice palapas and palm... More

My husband and I returned yesterday from our week stay at the Viva Wyndham for a destination wedding. I will start with the only positive from the experience - the wedding was lovely. Unfortunately, this was overshadowed by the unbelievably poor experience we had the rest of the time. While the grounds were overcrowded, the rooms damp and outdated, and... More

This hotel is very noisy, it's nearly impossible to get asleep before 3 A.M. You're not treated as a human being or even as a customer. They just consider you as an object, a number. The food is very basic... Concerning your room, do not expect it to be tidied up before 12 o'clock. Sometimes it was not done before... More

My wife and I just returned from 6 days at the Viva Wyndham Maya resort. Although we’ve been to the area several times, this was our first stay in the Playa Del Carmen area. We’ve stayed at a wide range of all-inclusive so I feel we have a solid basis for comparison. First the good, the beach is absolutely beautiful.... More

This resort is far from a even a 3 star. I will keep it simple Good: clean room, clean grounds, Beautiful Beach So/So: Food (it is hot and will fill your stomach, do not expect quality even at the restaurants), customer service Bad: Good luck getting your water/sodas replaced (once over the week stay), Bar service-it is slow and people...

I will try to keep this short ... we were 2 adults with 16 and 12 yrs. old kids. Resort was a perfect size.... everything so close....no need to take a shuttle to get to the beach, literally 30 seconds from the main entertainment area. Very clean and nicely decorated. Beach was everything you hoped it would be, water was... More

We loved the time we spent at Viva Wyndham Maya, it was the perfect getaway for us. Beautiful resort, in the perfect location. The beach is absolutely breath taking, and the service is impeccable. The work ethic of all the employees is really astounding, and something that we don't see often enough here in the US. What I think really... More
