Liked the rooms, cleanliness and area. Bit disappointed after booking cabana room that the pool was being re plastered- couldn't sit outside due to chemical smell of Resin/paint. Wish we’d had been told. Amazing breakfast.

The kind staff was very appreciated. My beautiful room was to die for. I had a wonderful view of the pool and ocean. As a solo traveler, I felt safe and the staff made me feel like I was at home. The free breakfast was an excellent addition. I can’t wait to come back with family and friends!

We had such a wonderful time at The Bay Hotel. Upon check-in, concierge was kind enough to walk us through our cabana, ensuring we were comfortable. The room smelled amazing and was super clean. We enjoyed wine on the patio and enjoyed a few sunsets from it. The bar on site was lovely for a warm and cozy nightcap. Security always present on site by the entrance which was great. Thank you for a wonderful stay!

Wrong room , twice the price.
We had stayed here a few nights before this and our stay was amazing. However, over the weekend someone dropped the ball. I was given the wrong room( a worse room than I had originally booked).It was akin to a staff room. When expressing my grievance it seemed like no one knew what was going on. The next day i was given my correct room but then charged for it , having already paid for my room before arrival. The management tried their best to assist and have me a meal voucher as recompense but I was very unhappy with how everything unfolded.
