Bride Live Aqua hotel review

“During my week at Live Aqua, I was impressed by everything that is offered here. There is something wonderful around every corner. The resort is very clean and organized. The staff are so friendly & helpful. I felt right at home. I especially enjoyed the friendliness and amazing service of Amin and Daniel who worked poolside. Also Paula was a great pleasure to speak with. Live Aqua has a half-dozen restaurants to choose from with GF and vegetarian options. So wonderful! One special delight is the fresh juice & smoothie station operated by Marco at Breakfast. I only wish these healthy smoothies were offered all day. I will definitely return here!” ~Kimberly M
