"Staff very friendly, Mexican and Italian restaurant very good, excellent room cleaning, swimming pool very good, access to beach very good, walkable distance to 5ta Avenida. Just a couple of suggestions; close the snack bar late, we were looking for coffee around 11.0 pm and there was no place where to get it, and find a way to keep some of the food warm at the buffet, a couple of times we got cold food, other than that, it was a very good experience.

"We loved this property. The Superior 1 Bedroom had an equipped kitchen (with stove top, fridge, microwave, coffee maker and toaster), living room, dining table, king bed, safe, and a long balcony accessing the living room and bedroom. The shower takes up half of the bathroom, so the rest of the bathroom felt a little small, but still worked ok for us. Towels are provided for the beach and rooftop pools (2 pools and 1 large hot tub). The reception desk is available 24 hours and they also...

"Had a great trip to Mexico, hotel was clean, pools were great. Not all the entertainment was for me but lots of variety for everyone, games, activities, shows and music. My real negative with the Viva Maya was with the staff. Check in was slow 2 desks working, lots of paperwork and questions. Sadly I had an awful interaction with 2 of the staff Antonio and Meses. I really needed assistance one afternoon both were really unhelpful and rude. Antonio was threw his arms up at me and Meses told me...

The staff is always been exceptionally kind and helpful and I love that the character of the hotel has such beauty in it. I will happily stay at this hotel anytime that I am in Playa if possible.

"The location of the hotel is great, in a more quiet part of the fifth street, very close to good restaurants and beach. The staff is generally great, except for the breakfast team. Unfortunately the breakfast is not great at all, very limited, and the breakfast staff is flat-out rude and have no standards for service. Would not recommend to pay extra for daily breakfast, the hotel should focus more on the rooms and guest service instead of trying to upsell breakfast, if this is not a priority."
