The Westin Savannah Harbor Golf Resort & Spa

Liked the resort, but...

Great location with a shuttle that takes you across the river 2x/hr so easy to get back and forth. Pretty grounds and for the most part very nice staff.

They definitely need either a bigger pool or a second pool. With as many "pool days" as you get in Savannah, its reasonable to assume guests are for the most part going to take advantage of the pool. Its way too small for the size of the hotel, and there are no where near enough chairs. They also waste a lot of pool real estate on cabanas that they're trying to upsell...that could be more chairs. But even with more chairs the pool area is simply way too small for the capacity of the resort. Overall, upselling the cabana is reminiscent of their strategy...nickle and dime guests.

Disorganized receptionist at Aqua Star restaurant

Boring/Disorganized receptionist at Aqua Star restaurant and long waiting. The receptionist wrote my name on a piece of paper then told me to wait around 15 minutes but we waited 45 minutes. When i checked back on him , he acted confused then finally gave us a table. When we got inside, we noticed the family that came right before us were still not served. That's when we decided not to waste anymore time and leave.Overall The hotel is wonderful.

More excited friendly staff and fast service

room was wonderful. Great shower, comfy bed, lots of pillows, very quiet. Always got a good nights sleep. loved the water taxi service. Room service guy was the most helpful and friendly person we dealt with the entire stay. He was great! We also liked the Green program, I like hotels that provide this option.

front desk pretty much took the information and gave out keys. No information on where thing were, how to get to the water taxi, information on the different in house restaurants. We had to figure things out for ourselves and when we had to ask an employee, some were helpful and others acted like we were bothering them. I am enrolled in the starwood preferred guest program so I was expecting more helpfulness. Other Starwood properties had an info packet all ready at check in. Savannah is a destination spot so it would have been helpful if we had been given more information.

Check in time is late (4 pm) and don't count on being able to get your room a minute early.
