The first room they put us in, had not been properly cleaned. The rooms are OK but generally speaking the hotel is very tired. The pool and grounds and beach area are quite lovely though. But we found crumbling infrastructure, planters that are empty and garbage and debris them. Definitely not the Westin level we have come to expect still at the price of high end Westin. The spa is lovely though and the grounds are quite nice. We found the staff very friendly. The food was good and I really liked the area that the hotel is located. It is much quieter than the Malecon and Romantic zone but still many bar restaurants in the Marina a 5 minute walk away.

Property was clean, as was the pool and gym. They are in the process of adding several shops and restaurants that are not open yet, so dining options are limited to the two main restaurants and poolside bars. From what we could see, they will be opening an ice cream shop, burger joint, and a few other shops. walking distance to the marina. Easy access to private beach.

We always stay at the Westin when we come to PV. We have been happy with the hotel but this time the cleanliness and overall service weren’t as good. The Westin was under construction and possibly this is the reason for the declining quality of service. We didn’t have any soap, body wash or shampoo in the room when we arrived, we also only had 2 towels, so we had to ask housekeeping for essentials. Next, when housekeeping refreshed the room, they didn’t replenish the towels or toilet paper, so again, we had to flag them down to get those items. We still had a great time though. The pool was fantastic and the food at the hotel, as well as at the Marina was great. We truly hope after the construction, the Westin is back to the high quality place it used to be.

Terrible hotel.

The maid used a very, very wet mop and mop.The marble floors and made them like an ice rink, which I slept on. There's wall and ceiling damage throughout the hotel that the repairs were not matched.And it looks like a dump. The waiters will bump into you rather than let you go by. They charge me each day for an extra resort fee.When I had already paid on hotels.com

El dumpo. You won't be happy with this hotel.

The maid mopped the floor with a very wet mop, evidently, the floor is marble, and I slipped; unnecessary hazard. I'm talking a lot of water. I can't believe any maid would do that. They put an extra resort charge on for each day. Even though I paid via hotels dot com. The waiters would bump into you regularly.Because they thought there access was more important than the guests. The hotel was run down; when they fixed wall and ceiling holes they didn't match them anywhere. Sloppy work. Buffet food was okay, but the restaurants were terrible.

This is an old property and it I showing its age. Boarded up store fronts in the main lobby. The resort is also split in half, with one side being residences and the other hotel. Beach is small, water murky from nearby marina and cruise port. 3 stars at best, not typical Westin quality.

Unresponsive to guests requests

Our stay (party of 4) was average at the property. For some reason, it appeared the hotel had a low occupancy, maybe due to ongoing construction. We learned the hotel was opened 2 days before our arrival (Dec 19, 2024). The beds in the room were double beds, which were unsuitable for two adults. None of us slept well at night. We requested the front desk to change our room, and irrespective of low occupancy; they were unwilling to accommodate our request without a significant charge. The pools had a lot of bugs and leaves, and we didn't see anyone cleaning the pools except for the first 2 days of our stay. The food options were minimal at the hotel, with only two restaurants working at this time. Also, the stairs were dirty, even though they were meant for evacuation purposes. It appears that regulations are not imposed very well in Mexico. The fitness rooms were so out of the way that it was almost demotivating to use them. The mats were dirty, and the rooms were not kept comfortable with proper air conditioning.
