Beautiful hotel, excellent service, delicious food … we are never disappointed with Westin. Front office staffs are efficient and quick … special mention for Mr Jameel Joomun who’s always caring and helpful. His smile and empathy does beyond words… The right person in the right place without any doubt, front office is key to leaving a great impression . We checked in late, he was accommodating and flexible and accelerated the check in so that we could take the children to restaurent for dinner. The buffet pleases everyone, F&B manager Mr Azagen is always on the job from breakfast to the pool restaurant to dinner. He is hands on and happy to help specially when it comes to pleasing the kids palate … Another mention for the beach waiter, mr Steven. Attentive and to the point ! He is peculiar with the details and spot on . He advised on the new pan Asian menu… which was a delight ! We had dinner at kangan, mr vishake attended our table with excellent mannerism and care. Thank you to all the staff, the welcome made a difference and a great infrastructure … excellent staff . We had a family room that was spacious, harmonious decor and child friendly. We are coming again soon. Till then… great success to Westin xxx We are surely coming again … Read less

We couldnt have chosen a better resort to celebrate our sons first birthday. The Westin made his day extra special by decorating our room and baking him the most beautiful cake. Roshan & Ravi at the front desk - assisted us with any request along our stay - thank you for being so helpful. They also willingly accomodated us for a late check out due to our late flighg back to CT. We loved how kid friendly the resort is - with numerous amenities to assist with your child having a comfortable stay- from child friendly staff,kids play rooms, provision of safe baby chairs, nappy bins in your rooms to freshly made baby food. Seam,Raja & the entire food and beverage team provide scrumptious healthy food options all through our stay. The quality & service provided was of a 5 star standard. Our favourite resturants where The Kangan & Mistique. We also enjoyed the lovely spread at the breakfast buffet. In room dining was also superb. The resort is extremely well maintained, the level of cleaniless was superb. We loved spending our time at the childrens pool as well as participating in the water activities the resort had on offer. The beach was a delight as well. We will definitely be coming back!!! Thank you to all the staff at the Westin Turtle Bay Resort for making our stay so wonderful! Read less
