"The room was very comfortable with high end furnishings. The resort is adjacent to the marina and the Galley Restaurant and a sports bar. Food is excellent and drinks cold. Highly recommend"
Viva Fortuna Beach by Wyndham, A Trademark All Inclusive
2/10 Terrible
"This is my first 50/50 review of a resort. I usually stay at RIU resorts since I’m a RIU member, but because I was traveling with a minor, we couldn’t stay at the RIU in the Bahamas.
The location is great only 20–25 minutes from the airport, and a taxi for two cost about $40. Check-in was pleasant, but the rooms were disappointing. My first room, 2211, looked nice at first, but paint was peeling, the bathroom smelled humid and rusty, and the balcony door was almost impossible to open. I was moved to room 1106, which had a beautiful view, but the bathroom was still falling apart, I found three cockroaches, and the AC sounded like a plane engine all night.
One major issue was privacy. After settling in with my kids, an employee opened our door without knocking to “check if everything was okay.” That was extremely unprofessional.
The beach is beautiful, though rocky in some areas. Pool and beach seating are limited unless you wake up early. Food was average with little variety, although one Dominican chef was excellent. Desserts looked good but tasted bad, and drink quality was inconsistent. Some bartenders also came across as rude or unwelcoming.
Entertainment was one of the best parts of the resort. Carlos, DJ Panda, and the team kept guests engaged and laughing all week, and Carlos’ ceviche on Thursday is a must-try.
Special thanks to Alejandra at the front desk and Marco at the buffet for their excellent service.
Overall, the resort has potential because of the locat"
"Natasha was the highlight of my stay. She was welcoming, warm and the brightest smile. My room was fantastic and I also received a complimentary bottle of wine. I’d definitely recommend Dolphin cove and look forward to returning in the future."
"my room was clean. My towels were fluffy. The bed was comfortable. There was no smart TV. The telephone inside the room did not work and there was no Wi-Fi in the room but other than that it was very quiet. The air condition was cold and I had a pleasant time there check-in was a breeze, and the staff were very friendly and helpful."
"Mike was very friendly and exhibited wonderful customer service. We asked for someone to sweep sand from a specific area in our unit and he came through like a breath of fresh air and swept AND mopped the ENTIRE unit! He was great!"
"Offered some good tours. I just wouldn't do the island tour. The cave tour was awesome! The dolphin encounter was wonderful. The bonfire was fun. We did things on our own sunset Cruise was super fun. Just be prepared to spend money on cabs as everything is on canals and is not very walkable. Other than that we had an incredible time"
"Clean room. Good air conditioning. Water pressure is too low. Priced a little high. Delapitated hotel in front of property is gross. It negatively affects first impression."
