Westin Resort & Spa Review

Hot pink! Electric yellow! Color aside, the Westin's buildings evoke ancient temples and are about as mammoth in size. There's not a bad sightline anywhere, whether you're gazing out to the leafy courtyard or down an orange-tile, brightly painted corridor lined with Mexican art. The jarring echoes here are tempered by the rush of an enormous water feature. In the spacious, balconied rooms concrete-and-stone floors massage bare feet, and top-of-the-line mattresses with soft duvets make for heavenly siestas. Guest quarters above the sixth floor have ocean views; those below face the 600 palm trees surrounding four beautiful pools.

We enjoyed our stay at Westin, and found it to be accurately respresented on this and it's website. It does feel very airy almost anywhere, and the property with it's 4 huge meandering pools and palm trees is very inviting and lovely. The views from our deluxe oceanview room were fabulous. They are not on carribean time here, the service was very good, and I would highly recommend this hotel. You will find a much bigger longer expanse of beach at the Marriott a few blocks down, but we didn't come to PV just for the beach like we might go to caribbean.
