The Westin Cozumel

Location: The hotel is frequently praised for its beautiful beachfront location, which offers stunning ocean views.

The hotel is shown as all-inclusive on *******. I was told upon arrival that all-inclusive was an option for an additional charge of 96pp per night. We paid the fee but were still required to sign and add a tip after every meal (why else would we be asked to sign the bill - it's all-inclusive, it must be for the tip, no?). At checkout, my final bill showed an additional daily charge added for tips each day. This should have been disclosed upfront. The location is too far from the main area. There's nothing to do around the hotel or at the hotel other than lounge around the pool or go to the spa. The best local amenity is the Key Lime Pie Factory across the street - the best pie ever! Online mentions that this is a dive hotel. Two guys in a booth by the water arranging dives does not constitute a dive hotel. You can rent equipment but the equipment doesn't work. I was given a faulty BCD - the only use it provided was to hold the tank. There are no lockers and no tups of freshwater to rinse equipment. It is very clean, with good service but has limited food selection (except at breakfast) and is a bit boring.

The Westins breakfast buffet was great and had a wide variety of hot and cold selections including an omelette bar, continental type selections, and most other common breakfast selections as well as a few types local culinary specialties
