Liked: Cleanliness
The staff was very friendly and if you want an affordable trip to the beach, this is the place to go. The hotel room itself was clean but could use a revamp.
We had a bay front room and it was perfect for us and our golden retriever! Just how I hoped it would be with the sound of the water and beautiful sunsets. Will stay there again!
I love the Bay resort. This place is very comfortable and its by the water. I've visited several times. This is my quick getaway spot. The staff are always welcoming.

Liked: Staff & service, amenities
The location, staff, pool, and restaurant were all wonderful. Right on the water and a stones throw from the beach. The pool room we stayed in could use a little TLC, but overall a very nice stay.
Great staff, let us in early due to being off season.Excellant view of sunset. Nice dock with chairs at the end to sit in.
The lady at the front desk was very nice. We will be coming back again to stay.
We had a great stay. The room was nice and clean, staff checking us in was very friendly and informative, and great location to the bay, beach and restaurants. Will return!
The staff members (Sharika and the manager) were very professional and provided great customer service.

Great location and the sunset views are wonderful. The bay side room is right on the water. It’s quiet in the off season and very relaxing. The staff are so friendly and helpful! They make the stay even better! The room is on the small size but everything else made up for that!
