Excellent stay at the Westin. We would especially like to say a big thanks to Kamini who kept our room in spotless condition and was very friendly, a real star at the hotel. Also the staff running the Heavenly Spa, they went out of their way to accommodate us when it was very busy on a few occasions when we visited. The bookable restaurants were superb although some dishes can be a bit too spicy at times. The International restaurant had a nice selection of different food but sometimes the heated containers holding food weren’t hot enough and sometimes the food in them was lukewarm. The other small issue was that a lot of salt was used in some dishes, this could be avoided by letting customers have the choice to add this themselves, I personally don’t put salt in my food so I really noticed this. Please be aware that there is no public transport available near the Hotel, so if you’re not hiring a car then you’re going to have to rely on cabs, this can be a bit expensive and if you’re wanting so explore the island you’ll need to consider these costs. Of course this is not the fault of the hotel but we found that getting your own cabs can be quite a bit cheaper than booking a cab through the hotel themselves, sometimes a big difference in price. Overall we had a great stay, all staff were friendly and helpful, from the cleaning staff to the hotel managers, and not forgetting the gardeners maintaining the beautiful gardens. The Westin’s 5 star rating is well deserved.

Fantastic post-COVID stay!
It was truly an amazing experience after not traveling for almost three years it was a beautiful unexpected experience! The staff were truly amazing, Jesh, Ashana, Adam, Neha and so many more including all the managers. Adam at the retreat even let me name a drink after me! ( the Sea Breeze, pictured). We didn’t realize it was a wellness resort when we first booked, so the food wasn’t always to our liking and preferred more variety like more Italian or Mediterranean themed nights as it was heavily based on curries and spiced foods (which is still lovely and local). However we ended up loving the wellness theme toward the end! The entertainment was also very appealing in the main lobby section, kept us entertained on the cold and rainy nights (not that many considering it’s winter!) Just overall a beautiful experience and will recommend over and over.

Such a beautiful hotel. I mean, I saw the pictures online before booking it, obviously. However, they don't do this property much justice! I was blown away by it's beauty as well as the friendliness of the staff. I remember there was a time when I mentioned that I would love to eat seafood while in Mauritius and the concierge called to one of the in-house restaurants and reserved a table for me an hour later for their 5-course seafood dinner.

Disliked: Amenities
The entrance to the hotel is nice and there is a nice walk way to the beach from the lobby. The adult pool was okay, but a lot of bird poo on the floor just as you enter the pool. We had to request for this to be thoroughly cleaned, which was actioned immediately. However we as the customer should not have to highlight this to the hotel managers and instead should be maintained regularly. The pool staff weren't very attentive, we had to wait over 20 minutes for a drink and it wasn't busy at all. We highlighted our concerns with the hotel manager and catering manager who quick started to make changes to the operations of the hotel and we could see a big difference after a few more hours. The service got better from day 2 onwards and pretty much all the staff knew our names and greeted us nicely throughout the stay.

We arrived earlier, than check-in time (3 pm), so we know we need to wait maximum till 3pm. Unfortunately at 3:35pm our room was still not ready... Around 3:45pm we get our room, but we didn't understand why we wait that long time, because our room wasn't cleaned properly... We made a half board upgrade, so we get dinner, but the food was not really good. Every night was "International" and one additional type of food. The International here mean = Indian food...... The hotel in and out was nice, the workers are helpful (not everyone), but for this price the food need to be perfect as well....

If you want a mediocre resort with TERRIBLE service, the Westin is your resort. I cannot tell you how disappointed we were with our stay here. No one in the entire resort ever smiled at us or offered help. It felt like a bad cruise ship! It was overcrowded with a fend for yourself attitude. The gym is worse than any Holiday Inn. it was a small white room with tiny windows, trash everywhere, no wipes or towels, and VERY dirty equipment. The food was awful, but the nonexistent service was what was most disappointing. Our room also leaked water and smelled like mildew. The room offers no privacy as it has no doors or solid walls between the bathroom and bedroom. We went three days with no new towels or cleaning of our room...yet they always remembered to check the mini bar!!!! Obviously, money was the only concern here. When the cleaning staff finally came, it was at 10 pm!!!!! Unacceptable! I would never, ever stay there again or recommend it.

Great amenities, high level of customer service and attention to detail. The front office manager Aldo was exceptionally helpful and welcoming. He made sure that everything were up to standard. Accessible eateries, 3 restaurants at the resorts. The resort is located at seafront with a beautiful view. I particularly loved the pool with a poolside bar which was very convenient
