By: Caribbean Journal Staff - October 12th, 2020

The Viva Wyndham all-inclusive resort in Grand Bahama is slated to reopen in November, Caribbean Journal has learned.

The 26-acre property on the south shore of Grand Bahama will reopen Nov. 1, Grand Bahama tourism officials confirmed.

The 274-room resort will reopen on the same day that The Bahamas removes its mandatory “vacation in place” requirement, part of a country-wide revision of entry travel protocols.

Viva Wyndham recently reopened its Viva Wyndham Dominicus La Romana resort in the Dominican Republic resort as well.
