Westgate Palace Stay

Not sure if the room came with room service or not...never seen anyone for fresh towels or amenities...other than that my family stay was outstanding great location to everything. The frontdesk staff was very friendly and helpful. This is a gated hotel which was great for safety. I would definitely recommend to others.

HYERAN, 2-night trip

8/10 Very good

Overall not so bad

Our stay was overall good. The rooms were clean, and the view was decent. The bed was a bit too firm for my comfort, which made it a little difficult to sleep well. The AC worked great in the living room and second bedroom, but unfortunately, the main room didn’t get as cool as we would’ve liked. The biggest downside for me was the water pressure in the shower—it was extremely low, which was disappointing. That said, we still enjoyed our time and would consider staying at a Westgate Resort again, possibly at a different location to compare the experience.
