I chose this property over the Sheraton mainly because of the Royal Beach Club. I'll probably choose the Sheraton next time. We visited friends there and our kids liked the pool there better (plus Sheraton had a hot-tub, Westin had a warm-tub), the similar pool menu was about 30% cheaper and our friends got a suite upgrade without using SNAs.

On the plus side, the staff was friendly and the rooms were nice. I would be happy to stay here again, but would like to try the Sheraton next time down there.

P.S. After researching the airport transfer options we ending up booking Cabo Transfers via their website and getting a private 6 person Expedition for $125 RT. Both trips went smoothly.
I definitely prefer the Sheraton to the Westin in Cabo. The Westin seems sterile in comparison. And while both beaches can have hazardous shore breaks, The Sheraton's tends to be somewhat more swimmable.

OTOH, I prefer the Westin to the Sheraton in Puerto Vallarta
