Westin Maui - Fantastic Ocean Front Suite
This was a week before Thanksgiving, and the hotel was filling up with the fans and families of college students, due to a NCAA basketball tournament in Lahaina that week. As SPG PLT, we must have been one of the few guests with status, as the upgrade was a huge jump from what was booked.
Booked a one-night paid, two night promo stay. (Remember the stay 4, get free weekend night promo last year?) Both reservations were booked for garden view, so we were thrilled to be upgraded (to what we were told was a $1900/night suite.)
Room was on a corner, so we had balconies (five total!) facing the pool and the ocean. Huge bathroom with jacuzzi tub, large living/dining room with big screen TV and DVD player, big bedroom. When we weren't on the sand watching the sunset, we were on our balcony with a cocktail. Simply wonderful stay. Could not have been more pleased with the room, and so glad we were PLT.
