I love the way this hotel brings two worlds together. Mexican architecture and hospitality coupled with Westin standards of service and quality. The hotel was built on a palm tree plantation and they've kept alot of palm trees around the pool. The rooms are beautiful with Westin trademark Heavenly Beds and Heavenly Baths...it's like sleeping on a cloud. The surrounding Marina area of Puerto Vallarta offers lots to explore.
What I wish I
could change:
The beach here isn't extremely large but they have utilized the space wisely so that everything is accommodated well without a crowded feeling.
Why YOU should
go:
Puerto Vallarta offers the best of Mexican hospitality. Shopping, golfing, fishing, watersports, jungle adventures....it's all here to explore.
Escape to 21 tranquil acres dotted with swaying palm trees and fronted by 879 feet of private Pacific Ocean beach. The Westin Resort & Spa, Puerto Vallarta offers all this splendor just minutes from the international airport and charming downtown. Beachfront pergolas and sparkling pools invite relaxation, while the serene spa offers head-to-toe pampering. Re-energize at the gym, tennis courts, or nearby golf courses, or explore upscale shops and dining at the marina district across the road.
