Construction during vacation
The hotel was undergoing construction. They should have closed the floors they were working on. There was a terrible chemical smell, we had to walk through bare floors that had chemicals on them and they were working past 7 pm on Saturday evening and began laying floors down and banging at 8:30 am on a Sunday. This is all happening a few days before Christmas. Had we known they were undergoing renovations we would not have stayed there. We complained and they did comp us a dinner, however we would have much rather paid for the dinner and enjoyed our room.

Westin is always nice. However we stayed during a lot of renovations and things weren’t up to the usual standard of cleanliness.

Ok
Oceanfront room had nice view. Beds comfortable. Neither elevator worked to go down from 4th floor and had to take steps down. When reported they said it would be fixed tomorrow. Staff for the most part was nice. Waiters and bartenders were excellent. Ceiling in room had water damage from leaks and room was musty.

The only reason that it didn’t receive 5 stars in every category was the construction on our floor. Without that all fives.

The rooms cost so much and not very up to date and then They charge you more fees on top of that. There were leaks in the ceilings and stains on the carpets. When I first got there they gave me the wrong room and I had to go back down to get it fixed. I will never stay here again. There was a nice hotel down the way that did not cost as much and it comes with breakfast.

Ocean Calm
It is a beautiful hotel and loved seeing the ocean and being able to walk around the village. All we needed was there. Exceptionally clean and comfortable - bed, chairs, desk. Staff was always friendly and helpful. Nice pool area. Loved the Starbucks cafe.
