The hotel offers amenities for your comfortable stay and unforgettable experiences

Indoor/Outdoor Pool Marvel

I had a fantastic experience swimming in the indoor/outdoor pool at Bay Valley Resort! The water was beautifully warm, especially enjoyable during winter. The depth of the pool, with a deep end that reaches 10 feet, is extremely rare in hotels nowadays, making for a fun and nice swim. I really appreciated the spacious layout, allowing my family to spread out and enjoy themselves.

Quality Meals at Players Lounge

During my stay, I had the pleasure of dining at the Players Lounge a few times. The food was delicious and hit the spot every time! Despite the challenges of limited dining options during my visit, I found the meals to be hearty and satisfying. It truly made my stay more enjoyable as dining out elsewhere wouldn't have been necessary.

Great Golf Experience

I had a wonderful time on the beautiful golf course at Bay Valley Resort! The views were stunning, and the course itself was well-maintained, making for an enjoyable round. Even though there were a few areas that could use some improvements, such as the sand traps, the overall experience was relaxing and fun, rewarding both beginners and seasoned players alike.

My stay at the resort was a mixed bag. While the hotel has a charming past, it feels very much in need of serious renovations. The room I stayed in was clean, but it was also quite outdated and uncomfortable. I faced several service issues, particularly at the front desk, which diminished my overall experience. On the plus side, the food was pleasantly surprising when it was available, and the pool area was a nice feature. However, the lack of basic amenities like reliable Wi-Fi detracted from the stay.

My stay at Bay Valley had its ups and downs. The staff were extremely dedicated to making our visit enjoyable, and the unique indoor/outdoor pool was a highlight. However, the food options were limited due to restrictions, and there were some issues with room amenities that could be improved. Overall, I see potential for this hotel to bounce back after the pandemic.

The rooms were in need of serious updates and the service was lacking, especially during off hours. On the plus side, the pool area was great, and when I could get food, it was delicious.

The Bay Valley Resort has great potential, with beautiful grounds and a unique pool, but it feels like it's struggling to keep up in terms of maintenance and service. While the staff made a real effort to be accommodating and the golf course views are stunning, there are definitely some areas that need significant improvement, especially regarding amenities and overall upkeep.
