We were on a local vacation. Traveled 20 minutes to our destination and never drove our car the whole weekend. Biked and walked everywhere. Great location. Dined out, biked and fished. Enjoyed the pool and nice atmosphere at the hotel.

Property has changed so much in a year. The food isn’t very good anymore. no one to order drinks or food while at the pool. The hot tub was so dirty and slimy on the sides. We called 3 nights in a row for the room above us had people running and jumping at all hours. Nothing was ever handled! Parking is by far the worst! the front desk charged my credit card and then another one I wanted to use just for dinning and billing to the room so it took us 7 days to get back 1600 dollars which pissed us off. The pool umbrella fell and hit me in the head and face and no one bothered to even ask if we were okay after having a bruised nose the whole week I was there. Thankfully it hit me and not my 3 year old who was next to me because it would have did some serious damage to him. They should probably make sure there is a safer way to have those anchored down. They want to charge you for parking nightly but don’t tell you that when it gets later there is no parking like at all unless you have a compact car. I really loved this place the first time but this 2nd trip was so disappointing. The night front desk people are no help either. You would think after 3x of the people acting like fools above us they would of did something about it. And I’m talking 2am to like 11am of those noise.

I didn't like that even though our room was ready at our arrival time around 2:30 PM (check-in time is 4:00 PM) we were told it would be $75 to check in earlier. If the room is ready, why not let your guest check in a little bit earlier?

Loved this property! Huge, well-equipped rooms with fabulous views from the balcony. Staff was very friendly and accommodating. Only had breakfast here and it was only fair. Good location to walk to some restaurants, easy to drive wherever. Overall, clean, but one issue in daughter's room with shower. Garage spaces are too narrow and $22 a night. I would definitely recommend and stay again. Great value.

The initial contact with the front desk was not great as I was early and inquired if it was possible to check in early, I was informed if I paid a substantial fee they might be able to accommodate me. It would have been nice to have been offered a text letting me know when my room was ready but the attitude was pretty much pay or we’ll see you after 4. The food was very good and service in the dining area was excellent. Housekeeping did a very good job of servicing the room although I only used them one time. The room was incredibly noisy I could hear everything in the rooms on either side of mine as well as the one above me.

We loved the Bay Club and will definitely stay there again. The property is lovely, and our room had a fabulous view of the marina. We really enjoyed the pool and hot tub. Most important, however, is the staff. Every person we encountered was wonderful. The server in the restaurant was Miriam, and she was lovely every time we saw her. The maintenance staff were friendly and helpful. The hotel was quiet, and perfect size, perfect location.
