Playa Viva - Playa Icacos

This is the most beautiful experience. This is a place to connect, reconnect, elevate consciousness and awareness about our role in this world. Playa Viva has an amazing team, all of them are connected to nature, to their community, and are the most important part of this community. I truly recommend travelling, visiting and reconnecting in this amazing place. We're are all one. Thanks to the Playa Viva team for their kindness, their extraordinary services, their food quality, the community building, and for reminding us how important it is to be connected and to work collaboratively. Just a great place to be.

This is the ONLY place I have found in 53 countries that does EVERYTHING right! from their social/enviromental impact, to the friendliness of staff, amazing ambience and vibe, the epic treehouses and the food...Playa Viva is unreal!!! A place worth every penny you will spend, knowing that it goes to help restore the watershed, the animals, the life and the community of the nearby town. I am gushing with love for this place!

Nothing but positive thoughts and wonderful memories. The vibe was awesome the entire time, the staff always professional and friendly, food/drink was out of this world, and the mission of Playa Viva truly righteous. I am so glad we came!!

5 star plus (if I could give more stars I would, everything’s was perfect)! The most scenic and beautiful hotel ever! Designed with so much love and care, beautiful hotel that was really relaxing and great service! Loved everything about it! Worth to go out of your way to stay here. It’s quite remote, but easy to access with the taxi that was included in the price. Also lots of thing to do and see; like whales and baby turtles.

Playa Viva was spectacular from the moment I arrived to the moment I left. The room, with its retractable walls to the warm, friendly, welcoming staff... the property... the food... it was exceptional! It was the first time I have taken a vacation alone and I loved every.single.minute!

This Playa Viva eco resort vacation had been a bucket list item for my mom over several years. Arriving together as a family, learning about green energy, sustainability and regeneration was important to her and impactful for all of us. We enjoyed the gorgeous lodging, food, staff, farm, turtles, ocean/beach, and, most importantly, invaluable time spent together. Special thanks to David, Omar, Emma, Griffen, the turtle rescue workers, the kitchen staff and others who helped make this such a wonderful experience for all of us.

Playa Viva was amazing! Beautiful location, amazing food, and the staff was fantastic. The rooms are comfortable and the turn down service was wonderful. Bathrooms are spacious. The food was delicious and highly recommend the Farm Tour- Amanda is an incredible human and I was so inspired by the work she is doing at the farm and for the local community. Overall, 5/5 vacation!

One word - Magical! This place is the place to go to disconnect and reconnect with yourself and the planet. The place is so beautiful, the food is fresh and delicious, and the owner and staff are so helpful and treat you like family. The farm is amazing - learn about regenerative farming. We enjoyed learning about all the ways to use the palm trees. as well as visiting the pigs and tasting the hibiscus. Don't miss what you can do to help turtles! In the evenings, you can participate in the group walk on the beach where you can help look for turtle eggs and protect them from predators. In the morning, you can release baby turtles and visit the education center of the turtle sanctuary and learn everything about turtles. The morning yoga and massages are so relaxing. The treehouses are beautifully designed with local materials and inspired by nature. Tip: Around dusk, put on mosquito repellent and change into long pants and long sleeve shirt. Thank you David, Julia, Jose and Fernando! I can't wait to come back!
