We have just come home from 10 days at Viva Blue. 2 years ago we stayed at the Viva Bahia which is under the same hotel group and felt we just had to go back. We were 2 adults and 3 children both times.

Our biggest problem with the Viva hotels is anything else after it seems downhill. Especially the breakfast buffet. We are a danish family and eat a type of brown rye bread only found in Denmark. - They had it!! The standard and This company have thought about absolutely everything. There are even free washers down in the basement. A god send for a family with kids on holiday for 10 days.

The service was excellent and the cleaning top notch. We will definitely be going back again. We hope they expand their chain to other med countries.

We have just returned from a stay at the viva blue.
It was excellant the staff were lovely ,the rooms were very clean.
The food was excellant.Plenty of sunbeds the weather was fab.
we would go again next year.we had a wonderful holiday.

We have just returned from a week at the Viva Blue in Playa del Muro, Majorca.
We went as a group of 11 in four apartments and I emailed the hotel direct only four days before we left to request that we be placed close together. I wasn't expecting miracles, but we had four apartments all in a row on the ground floor - fantastic!
The apartments are very clean, not huge, but big enough for 4 adults. Two downsides: no kettle (not a good idea for the english people!) and the hairdryer is crap, so take your own!!
The maid service is very good and the whole hotel area is kept immaculate at all times.
The swimming pools are great and there was never any problems getting sunbeds, although we did go at the end of the season, so it may be busier during peak times.
We didn't eat at the hotel at all as we found their prices a bit steep. But what we did see looked very nice and plenty of it!
The snack bar has a huge selection of food, both to eat by the pools or to take away, but some members of staff are very rude and could do with a course in manners!! They seem to have a dislike of the english and make no secret of it!
Now the downsides:
The walls in the apartments are VERY thin and german and swedish people seem to get up very early in the morning (usually around 6am) and make no effort to keep the noise down whatsoever, it was driving us all mad by the end of the week.
The entertainment on site is rubbish, both in the day and at night. We gave up on it every day, they didn't have a clue. A quiz that should have taken 30 minutes took about 3 hours, due to the complete incompetance of the staff and attempting to do it in three different languages!! Venture out where the entertainment is much better.
Playa Del Muro is a good 40 minute walk from Alcudia, but taxis are cheap and are a much better option. there isn't much of a town in Playa del muro, but there is enough to do if you look hard enough.
the beaches are fantastic, shallow waters and white sand - bliss. this is where we spent most of our time.
And lastly, take plenty of mosquito repellant or risk being bitten to death. It is unbelievable. The flies are a bit of a pain too and I was glad to be home away from them all!!

If you want a quiet holiday, surrounded by german and swedish rude people with hundreds of screaming kids, this is the place for you!!

Just arrived back from a week at viva blue appts booked by first choice self catering, the hotel was brilliant families will not be let down by this hotel as there is entertainment throughout the day and night for children and teenagers there are alot of swedish and german people in this hotel who do tend to get the best rooms but other than that there are no complaints, we ate at the hotel only at dinner times as we went out at night however the food was good you could also take it away to eat rnd the pool or in your room as you are given takeaway boxes which is handy, the hotel is very clean maids are exellent they dont arrive to early either, the resort is more for families and older couples as two of us went at 19 and we thought it was a bit to quiet however there are a few bars and restaurants i would reccomend this hotel.
