The Westin Rancho Mirage Golf Resort & Spa

“Crowded but a good deal.”

It is what it is. A bit of nickel and diming which is always annoying but great rates. If you eat local or in your room, you can save a lot. The pool is crowded but the slides are a hit with the little guys. I highly recommend taking advantage of the bikes (or bringing your own bikes or scooters) … lisää

The pool is crowded but the slides are a hit with the little guys. I highly recommend taking advantage of the bikes (or bringing your own bikes or scooters) and the driving range. Avoid the “free bowling” - it doesn’t work well and is just a trap to get you into the arcade and buy more games for your kids. The property is super pretty!!

“Is this really a Westin?”

Lots of nice aspects about the place. We were happy with our room and the grounds are nice. Major bummer with the pool which was completely overrun with people.

Lots of nice aspects about the place. We were happy with our room and the grounds are nice. Major bummer with the pool which was completely overrun with people. They need to go to aa wristband system for access to the pool. Pretty sure there are a bunch of people that don’t belong and also like 8 people jammed into some rooms which leads to the place being way too crowded. Unfortunately that aspect and the people associated with that behavior gives the resort a low class vibe.

“Used to love this resort, but now…”

We are staying here now - we’ve been coming here every year for the last 4 years. Really disappointed in some of the recent changes which a staffer attributed to a “new GM”.

We are staying here now - we’ve been coming here every year for the last 4 years. Really disappointed in some of the recent changes which a staffer attributed to a “new GM”. They used to have cookies and lemonade outside the reception area for the kids (and adults) daily around 3 or 4pm. No more. Most importantly they always had a great happy hour at Pinz and Pints with two free drinks for hotel guests along with candy and pretzels. Now only the candy and pretzels remain. No free drink cards, no free drinks. Happy hour drinks are now $7 or more. They do offer one free game of bowling. They used to give one free game for every day we stayed. I may sound like I am just looking for freebies, but this resort is not cheap and I appreciated the little things they offered that were considered part of the resort fee. Now I’m just paying $50/day for the “free” WiFi. Lastly the Las Hadas pool was previously adults only and it was quiet and serene with poolside bar service. I have kids but I usually send them to the kids pool area that has a lifeguard. Now Las Hadas is crawling with kids, the bar is closed, and it’s just like the other kiddie pool here. No staff on site and even the gates are propped open with a rock so anyone can come in. I am sad to say we will probably seek out a different resort next year. Staff here are lovely and they are the standout part of our stay but the changes driven by greed are hard to adjust to.
