I had a wonderful stay at the hotel with its stunning views and friendly service that made me feel right at home. The rooms were spacious and well-appointed, particularly loved the private terrace. However, check-in was a hassle and there were some minor issues with dining that could use improvement. Overall, it was a memorable vacation experience, but a few adjustments could elevate it to true luxury.

I had a wonderful stay at the hotel, where the staff went above and beyond to make my family feel welcome and accommodated. The food was delicious and freshly prepared, and the children's activities were engaging. However, while the rooms offered nice views and spaciousness, they weren't as pristine as I would expect from a five-star establishment. The beach area left something to be desired as well, with gritty sand and strong currents affecting swimming options.

Rooms

The rooms were spacious and had great garden views, but being on the second floor without an elevator made access less convenient, and the ocean views were quite limited.

Staying at the Westin Turtle Bay was an incredible experience. The staff made me feel at home with their warm hospitality, and I truly appreciated their attentive service throughout my stay. The food was excellent across all restaurants, particularly the Indian restaurant which served some of the best dishes I've ever tasted. On the downside, some drinks were on the pricey side, and I wish they provided glass bottles for water instead of plastic. Overall, it's a fantastic family-friendly resort with great amenities and welcoming staff.

We had a lovely stay at this beach resort, with incredible service from the staff who went out of their way to make our family feel special. The location was beautiful, featuring stunning views and a gorgeous beach, but we did experience a few minor issues with our room's cleanliness. Overall, it's a fantastic place for a family getaway, especially if you're after a friendly atmosphere and a lot of activities.

The Westin Turtle Bay offers a truly memorable experience, with stunning views and exceptional staff that go out of their way to make your stay special. The facilities are well-maintained, especially the adults-only pool with great views of the ocean. However, the dining options can be hit or miss, particularly in the Club Lounge where food variety and service seem to need improvement. Overall, it's a lovely vacation spot, though there are some areas that could be enhanced.
