We loved our stay. Our room overlooked the bay, and the views were gorgeous. The property was so relaxing. The room was clean. The staff were all super friendly and helpful. The location is PERFECT- you can relax on your balcony with the water and the sunsets but then steps away be at the local bars to see bands and have some drinks. We will definitely be booking again!

We love the Bay Resort and stayed on a pool from 1st floor room this time. Pool is great. Location is great. staff is excellent. Has recently gone through an ownership change which we noted. The kitchenettes in the rooms have all been updated which is nice (only used the fridge however). We recommend Bay Resort

Beautiful hotel with gorgeous views of the Bay. Staff was beyond helpful and room was clean. When we chose to stay an extra night, staff went above and beyond to help us find the best deal and to stay in our room. Bay Resort was close to everything we needed, quiet, and we will definitely stay again!

If you're young and need a place to crash after partying this is a great place - the beds are not made for comfort they're made for passing out which is fine in a party town like Dewey. Rooms were clean and the view on the Bayside was nice. Convenient for being dog friendly. Recommend for anyone under 30-35 that's looking for a good time.
