9. What Brides Said…

Resort is exceptional. Hosted my wedding here, after planning completely over the internet. Wedding coordinators, Claudia and Armando, were exceptional. Staff is friendly, welcoming, and work hard. For an all inclusive, the food is delicious; many different restaurants and options. 10/10 recommend.

– Danielhtucker

After visiting Live Aqua four times, my now husband proposed at our favorite spot, Hidden Garden. Then we both decided to have our wedding there as well. We came back two more times before the wedding and on our 8th trip we got married on the beach in between the palm trees. I was so lucky to have Claudia as my wedding coordinator. She made everything about my big day so special. Everything went perfect. Much better than my wildest dreams! I can’t thank everyone at Live Aqua enough. We love this place so much. Every time we go back we are always greeted like family. We have gotten to know a lot of the people who work there over the years and we enjoy seeing them every time. The food is amazing, the atmosphere is amazing, and the smell is the best part! So luxurious and relaxing

– Leina_Nicole

My daughter chose this venue for her wedding. The hotel, staff, and venue could not have been more perfect. Claudia and Armando planned a beautiful celebration that went smoothly. Every guest was treated like royalty and we received many complements on the service, accommodations and views. I will be returning to this fabulous escape!
