There was constant jack hammering every day at the pool. You couldn’t get away from it. It was so noisy and dusty. They were even doing construction in the lobby. It was really frustrating and not relaxing at all. There were workmen taking videos of guests in the pool. Extremely unprofessional. I wouldn’t recommend this place for a relaxing vacation. We purposely paid extra for an ocean side view only to hear Jack hammering even when we were in our room. There are no posted menus on their website anywhere. I had to go down to the front desk to ask for menus.

This is a beach resort about a half hour outside Panama City. Area is nice. Quiet and safe. The resort is well maintained, if a little dated. Pools are terrific and the beach front is nice, if small. Ocean swimming is limited. Foos offerings were fine, id not exceptional. Buffets were nice with good range of choices.

This hotel is good if you're staying only a couple days and don't plan on hanging out there. My biggest disappointment with the hotel is the bar at the pool closes at 6p. There is no music out there it's just boring for people who are hanging with adults. Not much to do besides eat.

Spacious, clean rooms and very friendly and accommodating staff. My issue was that I wanted a room with ocean view, got a forest view instead. Other than that it was a pleasant stay.

This property is in need of a desperate renovation from discolored chairs, broken faucet, old and nasty looking shower head, to mold in the ceiling. Even though the manager did try is best to make us happy for a Westin this was just horrible. These owner need to get it together because they wouldn’t stay there under those conditions.

Really nice place with a great beach and many pool options. I didn't like the gym; I've had better gyms on a cruise ship. With all the space, they could have put in a better gym with updated equipment.
