The rooms were clean. It would have been nice to know that my room was on the third floor, and there is no elevator.

The property is dated and old (my mattress totally sagged), but the location is great and the staff was so nice. For an extra fee you can check in early. I had chose a bay side room and the view could not be beat. The location was great and we walked to the beach and bars.

Location of hotel was great. Walkable to the main street with all the stores, bars and restaurants. Parking lot on property so you didnt have to look for parking. Hotel sits on the bay which was great for us to launch our paddleboards. Bike rack near pool made it easy. Pool was clean. Beds were comfortable.

The staff were amazing, the pool was cleaned everyday and the hammocks were comfortable. This location from the hotel to the beach was 2 blocks maybe a 5 minute walk. Great time and will return next year.

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.

Property had beautiful views of the Bay and plenty of amenities. Location is quiet and out of the way, yet close to everything needed. Room was clean, and staff went above and beyond to find the best rate for us to continue our stay without switching to a different room. We will definitely be returning here!

Overall, a great find. Room was recently renovated/very clean. Loved the daily sunsets and swims, easy access to beach and restaurants. Easy access to kayaks on site with reasonable hourly rates. Surprised and disappointed by the $45 parking fee, but still much cheaper than street parking.

We booked our stay pretty late after our Airbnb cancelled the day before. I stayed on the Bayside near the pool with my daughters. Our efficiency room was near the pool and we could see the bay which was nice. We paid nearly $500 for it a night so I was surprised to find a beetle on my pillow when we arrived. Was worried it was a bedbug but it was not after a quick google search. Otherwise the tv didn't really work and it was a pretty basic room for the price. There was a stove and kitchenette which is a nice feature. We were walking distance to the beach so that was nice. I'd recommend staying here if you are really wanting to be near the beach and the bay- I would say the accommodations were ok. Lots of folks had pets which was fun to see.

I just want to say thank you to the staff at the front desk . They were very warm and welcoming when I checked in. Very friendly staff. Told me about the local restaurant specials for brunch. Amazing!!

The property was beautiful. The rooms was beautiful. My only hiccup was the staff didn’t tell us it would not be no pots or pans or in the room. But everything was beautiful. The staff members was polite. The rooms was clean. It was a item behind the nightstand so I think they should check behind a nightstands more often, but everything was nice and up to par.
