The hotel setting on the shoreline is superb and the grounds are beautifully maintained with palm trees and other tropical plants. The place is teaming many varieties of birds who are totally comfortable with humans; don’t be surprised to find yourself within inches of them whilst having breakfast or sitting on your balcony. Rooms are spacious, very clean and offer lots of storage. Ours had a pool / ocean view and we were looked after extremely well by Kamal who was extremely friendly and helpful throughout our stay and kept our room immaculate and replaced towels and other supplies daily. We ate mostly at the “Seasonal Tastes” buffet restaurant for breakfast and dinner. The variety and quality of the food was fantastic and the staff were exceptionally friendly and helpful. We also tried “Mystique” and “Beach Grill” which also offered great food and service. Lounging by the pool was excellent with comfortable sunbeds and large parasols. Drinks can be ordered from your phone using their app and again are delivered to your lounger by friendly waiters (you can become really lazy here and not move a muscle, were it not for the well-equipped gym at the spa complex). The real highlight of this place is the staff - we’ve never experienced this level of friendly, helpful service before; they really make you feel welcome and can’t do enough for you, as epitomised by Yasmin who was so helpful with luggage and guidance. We highly recommend this place. Read less

1. We had a wonderful experience at the Westin Turtle while celebrating my husband's birthday. The service provided by the staff from our arrival to departure was exceptional. They were able to arrange a birthday cake and decorations on short notice, which truly enhanced our experience. Such thoughtful gestures contribute to a memorable stay. While I regret that I cannot mention all the dedicated individuals who contributed to our enjoyable visit, I would like to acknowledge a few: Yashveer, Manoj, and Jameel. However, the food selection at the buffet and breakfast did not meet our expectations. Additionally, being on the ground floor, we encountered a significant number of mosquitoes in our room. Overall, it was a great stay. Read less
