The Westin Casuarina Resort & Spa
Information & Amenities
Hotel Information: A tranquil haven on Seven Mile Beach (actually 5.5 miles long), the Westin attracts discriminating guests seeking lots of beach room to enjoy the sun, uncrowded access to the warm Caribbean, exceptional dining, and the pampering of a Euro-style health spa.
Amenity highlights: Lined by tall, graceful Casuarina trees (willow-like, with long, slender pine-like needles), the resort's 700-foot-wide beachfront runs 150 feet to the turquoise Caribbean, providing uncrowded sunbathing on lounge chairs. A formal, palm-graced courtyard contains a large twin-sided pool spanned by a bridge that leads to the beach. Completing the mirror-image courtyard are eight-person, blossom-shape spa tubs raised at pool ends.
Insider tip: The health spa includes a couple's room containing a large spa tub, twin tables, and tea candles.
