Viva Fortuna Beach by Wyndham, A Trademark All Inclusive

Review of the Viva Wyndham Fortuna Beach Resort. This revisit of the lovely beachfront resort reaffirms its charm. As a three and a half star hotel, it offers an ideal size, with all amenities conveniently located. Although the buffet food can be repetitive and not always hot, the microwave provided was a useful amenity. Securing reservations at the three a la carte restaurants proved challenging, despite utilizing the app. We managed to reserve a table at Dolce Vita and Viva Cafe, but unfortunately, not at the Mexican restaurant. The food at Viva Cafe was satisfactory, with the steak strips being a highlight. The beach is truly exceptional, with nearby restaurants accessible by foot. An abundance of loungers ensures that securing a spot is never a concern. The resort features a pool and hot tub adjacent to the main bar. While the rooms are in need of renovation, the linens and towels were clean, and housekeeping services were provided daily. The entertainment team is outstanding, offering an extensive range of activities throughout the day and evening. Although the Lion King show was somewhat disappointing compared to my previous visit nine years ago, the resort remains an excellent value for its price, particularly for families and friend getaways, offering a relaxed atmosphere with exceptional entertainment.

We seriously had the best time it was one of the best vacations food was amazing people were so incredibly nice!! Black Santa as he refers himself 🤣 was amazing!! The staff is so helpful and they do everything to accommodate you! You can tell everyone loves you working there, the shows are truly great! The reviews really don’t match the service that we’ve got there we were just so impressed!!! Our room was right on the beach! ( of course you have to pay extra for that well worth the expense!! We will be going back next year! This resort is also very kid friendly/ and also for couples we didn’t bring ours kids this time, but next time we will for sure!! Thank you Billy and staff for such a dream come true vacation!!

Me and my husband stayed here for a week and we had a blast ! All the staff were so friendly, we knew everyone by their names by the time we left. The rooms need updating but they weren’t terrible and the AC was ice cold. The buffet was hit or miss some meals but we never left hungry. Lots of stuff to do included with all inclusive pricing and lots of excursions to do as well. We were fed, drunk and had an absolute blast with excursions, games, and water sports ! The beach was gorgeous. Don’t let bad reviews stop you from choosing this resort, and keep in mind it has also been there for 36 yrs (their oldest resort)

We recently stayed at Viva Fortuna Beach and had an absolutely wonderful time. From the moment we arrived, the staff were friendly, welcoming, and always ready to help. One of the absolute highlights of our stay was the evening entertainment—especially Amy! She was an amazing entertainer and dancer. Her energy was contagious, and she truly brought the place to life every night. The kids loved her! Whether she was leading a dance, playing games, or just interacting with the little ones, she made each evening feel special and fun. The hotel itself was clean, comfortable, and well-equipped for families. The pool area was a big hit with the children, and the food options were varied enough to keep everyone happy.

For a 3.5 star I have to say I’ve had amazing time here at this resort! We came with friends and family and all of us have enjoyed our time.|Our rooms were clean and (Karen) our housekeeper was amazing making sure we had all we needed in our rooms. Beds were comfy but a little sneaky. |The beach was pristine! Some days were windy making it choppy but other days were so calm and clear! The pool was cleaned well and more than enough room for guests around the pool! Tons of loungers around the pool and on the beach also with wheelchair access! |Franky (Franklyn) the life guard kept a watch over all guests on the beach and in the pool (different days) also looking out for others so they don’t get ripped off by scammer venders! |Ziah down at the beach bar/snack shack was amazing! His vibes always welcomed all of our crew making us smile, laugh and have a great time! Our kids will definitely remember him when we come back! |Jaheim and Nadia at the main bar …. Let me tell you!!! They took real good care of our whole crew the whole week! From coffee to cocktails and shots! They were beyond amazing! I will definitely be bringing my family back to this resort time and time again! |There’s the good|The bad…. Ain’t even that bad. It was check in… knowing that many people are about to show up I wish both side of the lobby were open. Unfortunately only the one side was open and it’s took us approx 45mins to 1hr in line and then the check in itself was super quick. We missed having dinner at the buffet due to this. Otherwise, late night pizza was available after 10pm and we were able to enjoy a bite before bed. |Cheers folks|Your vacation is what you make it!

The only positive I have is the ocean beach. It was beautiful. Food- They offer buffet style but because they never cover the food up there is a 50/50 chance a fly has been in your food. Because of this single fact i actually lost weight. Room -My room had ants 🐜 and the shower head shuts off when it decides too. Our room wasn’t ready when we arrived and several friends of mine had the same issue. The rooms need to be updated to modern times. Activities- they had activities but not a wide variety. Final Thoughts: To me this resort was a retirement resort for elderly people. A vacation spot for book lovers with an edge. Someone who goes to waffle house for Thanksgiving dinner. I can not think of any reason to return here unless you are on a tight budget or have never experienced a true all inclusive because if you have you will truly be disappointed.

The view is very beautiful from the beach and pool. Everyone is so nice including all the workers! Ian, Calil, and Mike were very sweet helping us do the trapeze, I was pretty scared cause I'm not the best with heights but Calil kept reassuring me and helped me smile through the fear! It was pretty easy getting a taxi to go to the hotel cause there are people waiting for you outside the airport. The atmosphere is very nice as well, although I do think the actual rooms could be a little better the bedding doesn't seem the cleanest looking old with a lot of stains. Overall my mom and I had a great time. Again everyone is so nice here, Rita had an amazing voice singing for the audience and is great at entertaining! One more thing that could be changed is when you use the app to see what's happening it could have more info for certain things and it was also wrong a lot of the days like it would say one thing and then they would be doing a different show at night. So just putting more detail and clarification into the app for guests would be great!

We went on our first family vacation with our two young kids and had a great time! Absolutely beautiful beach, the buffet was great with lots of options and we loved the snack bar on the beach! Evening entertainment was wonderful and the kids really enjoyed the glass bottom boat tour excursion. We had an ocean view room and it was clean with a beautiful view, housekeeping was great! We would definitely come back!
