A great place to spend the day in Puerto Rica....Vivo Beach Club Resort has all the amenities. Beautiful Beach, Good food & drinks, very nice boutique shop, and well maintained.
As a destination wedding photographer in Puerto Rico, I had never experienced Vivo Beach Club as a wedding vendor, only as a civilian. Recently I covered the documentation of the wedding decorator and was absolutely blown away by the amenities and facilities. It was absolutely stunning everywhere you looked and would wholeheartedly recommend it to anyone looking to get married in Puerto Rico.
This place treats a public beach like it’s their private empire, enforcing made-up rules that shift depending on who you smile at. You can’t rent a chair or umbrella unless you buy an overpriced “pass” - which includes nothing. But smile the right way, and suddenly $20 in cash gets you a setup — no receipt, no record.
An hour later, someone else comes over saying you’re not allowed to be there after all. No refund. No explanation. Just, “get up.” I paid for the chair and the cocktail - and now I’m not allowed to sit or sip? When I politely asked what was going on, a huge guy came over, rude and borderline threatening, talking down to us like we were trying to steal something.
Congratulations, dude - your day was a success. You saved two beach chairs and an umbrella from two women. Must feel good.
This place is shady, poorly run, and absolutely not worth your time. If you don’t want people using your facilities, say so. Don’t play these petty, manipulative games. The owner should seriously consider changing the management.
Saw this place online through their website. Cost for a day pass was noted as $40 per person. We planned a visit on our cruise stop. Went to check in after the taxi dropped us off. Was informed the cost was $80 per person. Host apologized and said website was old. Talked to a “manager” and he said there was nothing he could do. His explanation for the website said it was old and was offline (which it is now - probably because of people coming here thinking it was $40). He kept blaming Google AI and was stood fast on nothing he could do even though we were only going to be here for 3 hours (needed to get back to boat). So best call and don’t believe the website.
