When Super-storm Sandy struck, my wife and I evacuated from our home on the beach. We found shelter in the Viana Hotel and Spa in Westbury, NY. It was our silver lining in this devastating act of nature. The staff is SUPER. They are caring and sincere and want to make your stay as comfortable as possible. The hotel itself is beautiful and spotless and the ownership, management and staff are always ready to cater to your every need. The rooms are equipped with a comfortable bed, luxurious linen, flat screen television, microwave refrigerator, a comfortable reclining chair and a desk. The bathrooms are tiled and well lit and are equipped with a magnifying mirror and hair dryer. The towels are soft and fluffy. By the way, the Viana is a "green" hotel. The hotel has a restaurant/bar called the Marco Polo. It serves breakfast, lunch and dinner. The food is wonderfully prepare by an expert cadre of chefs. The wait staff and bar tenders are warm and friendly and strive to make your dinning experience pleasurable. By the way, the hotel is well located. It's just minutes away from the LIE, Long Island's major parkways, and the Long Island Railroad. The Viana Hotel and Spa is a great place to stay and my wife and I feel it is our home away from home.
