The Westcliff, like many Four Seasons properties, is located in a beautiful property with sprawling land and exceptional views. We used the golf cart to get around to our room as the hotel is set upon a hill. The rooms were fine, roomy and spread out, the bed and bedding were very comfortable, we slept great. The A/C didn’t cool as much as we would have liked, but they brought us a fan. The staff were amazing. Ute at the front desk was concierge, housekeeping, room service - anything we needed she went above and beyond to take care of us. COVID has hit the area quite hard, and they did everything to make you feel safe and also make sure you enjoyed your stay.

I stayed for the weekend and loved every minute of it . All COVID protocols have been carefully adhered to and follow through everywhere one goes on the property. Golf carts have plastic dividers so that guests don’t have physical contact. The staff wear masks and gloves all the time. Our room was spotlessly clean and the beds are super comfy . Staff are easily accessible and take time to engage with guests. Everything runs via an app so if you need a golf cart for example you order on the chat via the app. Wi fi is free and works all over the property. The meals at Flames restaurant are exceptional, presentation is classy , the waiters provide recommendations with explanations of the various dishes . Booking is essential for the restaurant, it’s a popular spot . The spa is of the highest standard, with COVID protocols very closely managed. For example basins in the change rooms have the middle one sealed to allow for social distancing . Masks are worn during treatments and the steam room and sauna only allow for one person at a time. Over all it was five star service from the time we arrived until our departure.…

Stunning beautiful views and a great location. We scored the COVID special so two adjoining rooms quite affordably. We were directly above the family pool and a quick walk to the restaurant and reception. I'd stay again if the price is right. The rooms are a tad run down. Both sinks in the bathroom (King room) didn't empty well and the panels on the bathtub (twin-bed room) fell off and scared us at night. Carpets also showing their age, but the linens were perfect. But these things didn't hinder our experience. My only real issue was with the very old french doors that lead to the balcony, which are beautiful during the day but don't keep the noise out at night. Luckily the roads and hotel weren't busy, otherwise, this would have been annoying. Overall the staff made the stay feel safe and clean. The staff knew our names and were helpful. Staff at the restaurant for sundowners and dinner were fantastic.…
