planned community, just outside of Scottsdale. Boasting more than 300 days of sunshine, the area is renowned for its breathtaking sunsets, stunning vistas, and fascinating history. Whether relaxing at the spa or off roading in the Sonoran Desert, shopping downtown or golfing on one of the 174 courses, there is truly something for everyone to enjoy at the property. This majestic resort serves as a showcase of art, historical artifacts, and photography, and is split into hallways with different Arizona based themes. The Kierland Golf Club adjacent to the property offers 27 holes with rolling hills, manicured Bermuda grass greens, and a 19,000 square foot clubhouse with a golf school, pro shop, and restaurant. The enormous, sparkling free form pool literally envelopes the back side of the Westin. The full service spa on site rejuvenates guests with unique Native American inspired remedies and botanical based treatments. High speed Internet access is available. Westin's trademark Heavenly Bed is an all white masterpiece boasting acustom designed pillowtop mattress, three sheets ranging in thread count from 180 to 250, a down blanket and five goose pillows. Guests like the beds so much that the Westin has made them available for purchase. The premium villas feature maple cabinetry and fresh, modern décor in black, red and white. The premium villas offer full kitchens, and the deluxe villas feature kitchenettes. Built in entertainment centers in the living rooms offer 32 inch flat screen televisions and DVD Players. Villas also feature 27 inch flat screen televisions, granite countertop bathrooms and black out lined draperies.

Sandy Lane location for less than an arm and a leg
Advantages: Location next door to the rich folks. Same scenery for less salary. Disadvantages: Rooms in need of modernisation.
Overall good with some areas for improvement necessary. We visited in 2003. Recent guest comments (2007) reflect the same experience, so they have not moved on.
The beach location is excellent, especially as it is right next door to Sandy Lane Bay, which you can walk across or swim off, disturbing the celebrities on "their" beach. It's on the west coast of Barbados which is well sheltered from the Atlantic winds.
... ...rather than relaxed caribbean, and attentive most of the time; but when they were busy we sometimes felt entirely forgotten. Food was pretty good with a reasonably wide choice. The price includes afternoon rum punch from the beach bar, but don't have too many in the heat of the day.
Our pool courtyard suite was a bit shabby and needed modernising, particularly the bathroom/shower, still a problem in 2007. c.£850pppw inc flights. ... more
