Great stay at the Bay Resort in Dewey
Check- in was fast, friendly and welcoming! The young lady checking me in was fabulous! This is our second time staying here with equally excellent experiences! The resort is convenient to all Dewey local spots. It is clean, with a pool and right on the bayside. Very quiet at nights and comfortable rooms. We are happy to recommend this business and will stay here in the future.

30 minutes prior to our arrival we were told our reservation made four months prior would not be available.A fifty dollar credit was issued. We were placed in a room with two double beds, not a king as reserved. Pot smoking in the room adjacent,not a pleasant stay!

The room was filthy. Hair all over the bathroom, soiled carpet, broken and moldy ceiling tiles. Horrible experience and $450 a night. Crazy. Thankful it was only one night.

This was our second visit to The Bay Resort. We love it! This is a clean and quiet place. The staff will always go out of their way to accommodate. The Bay does not appear to attract the younger crowd, who are in the area to party all night, playing loud music and leaving vomit and garbage everywhere. It appears to attract customers who are peaceful and are family friendly. It is facing the bay instead of the ocean and so one doesn’t have to dish out so much more money! We will continue to visit The Bay Resort whenever we visit this area. Yearly at least!
