Our Commitment to Sustainability
Sustainable Environmental Practices
Welcome to The Westin Resort & Spa, Puerto Vallarta's Sustainability Commitment Hub!
At The Westin Resort & Spa Puerto Vallarta, we operate responsibly to protect our natural surroundings. Through Serve 360, Marriott International’s global sustainability platform, we work to reduce our environmental footprint and promote mindful practices in every aspect of our operation.
Purposeful Actions
We carried out 59 Serve 360 activities with 598 volunteers, contributing over 1,430 hours. We organized 20 beach cleanups, collecting 450 kg of waste, and supported 12 civil associations with over $35,000 MXN in goods. We also delivered 95 kg of plastic caps to Ángeles en Libertad A.C., aiding their medical and social support efforts.
Blue Flag Certification
For the second consecutive year (2023–2025), Westin Puerto Vallarta has been awarded the international Blue Flag certification, recognizing excellence in sustainable beach tourism. This distinction certifies high standards in water quality, environmental management, safety, services, and environmental education.

Green Key
Towards a More Sustainable Operation At Westin Puerto Vallarta, we’ve applied for the Green Key certification, an international distinction granted by the Foundation for Environmental Education (FEE). This recognition highlights hotels that meet high standards in environmental sustainability and social responsibility—reinforcing our commitment to conscious travel.
Less Plastic, More Well-being
Local and Responsible Sourcing
At Westin Puerto Vallarta, we promote conscious operations through responsible sourcing. Key products like cage-free eggs, coffee, and paper are purchased from Marriott International–certified suppliers. We also work with local producers to support the circular economy and strengthen our community.
Recycled Water
Our 247,569 sq. ft. of outdoor areas are irrigated with treated water from a local wastewater treatment plant (PTAR), reducing the use of potable water.
