    Susan, I tried to send you a private message, but it didn't work. Oh well here goes, sorry if it's a little long. We stayed at the Westin. It was very nice, but there are nicer properties on the island. We liked it, don't get me wrong, but my DH is an SPG member so we stay at starwood properties mostly everywhere we go. The Hyatt and Marriott are good choices too. (check out costco's website, we heard they had great deals)

    The Westin does have an all-inclusive option but IMO it's not worth it. There are a lot of great restaurants and bars on the island that you really should try. IE.Madame Jannetts, The Driftwood, and Texas de Brazil. But there is a restaurant in the Westin called Pago Pago. It was the best meal we had on the island. 

    It really was an amazing trip. We relaxed totally while we were there but there are other options if you want to get a little crazy too! It is very safe there and never once did we encounter any troubles. Plus credit cards and the american dollar is excepted almost everywhere. There is always something going on. While we were there, the SOUL concert was going on, and on the way home we sat next to singer Toni Braxton and her family on the plane. We wished we could of stayed and extra week because there was wine and food festival going on the following week.
