Delicious Breakfast Options

“I enjoyed the breakfast at the Bayside Grill, which offered a variety of choices like fresh fruit, eggs, bacon, and waffles. The use of real dishes instead of disposable ones made it feel much more upscale. The restaurant's staff was warm and cute, ensuring a pleasant start to my day each morning.” view full review

Comfy and Well-Equipped Rooms

“My room was spacious and had all the amenities I needed, including a fridge, microwave, and coffee maker. I appreciated the large sliding doors that opened to a balcony, providing a lovely view of the bay and surrounding area. It truly felt like a home away from home.” view full review

Clean and Functional

“The bathroom in my room was well-maintained and included all the essentials I needed. It was clean, which is always a priority for me when traveling. I found it comforting to have a proper space to freshen up after a day of exploring.” view full review

Great Pool Area

“Although I didn't personally make use of the pool, I could see it from my room, and it looked inviting! The well-kept outdoor space seemed perfect for relaxing after a day of activities, and I noticed it was a favorite spot among families staying at the hotel.” view full review
