We recently stayed at this beautiful hotel and wanted to share our feedback. We were delighted to find the weather perfect for our beach getaway and were particularly impressed with The Bay Resort's location in Dewey Beach. As first-time guests, we found it to be one of the best locations in the area. The staff was incredibly welcoming and enthusiastic, which greatly enhanced our experience. We thoroughly enjoyed our bayside room, which offered stunning views. The room's amenities, including the kitchen and comfortable couch, were excellent, and the shower was a nice feature. Overall, we had a very pleasant stay. Our only concern stemmed from booking through a third-party website. I didn't read the fine print and was not aware of the additional resort fee and the pet fee of $150. We understand these fees are part of your policy, but we suggest ensuring they are more prominently displayed on all booking platforms to avoid any surprises for future guests. Thank you for providing such a wonderful experience. We hope this feedback is helpful.

Heads up to anyone playing in a Sports at the beach tournament and looking to book at Bay Resort Waterfront Hotel, DON’T. Our team followed the rules for SATB and used their stay-to-play provider, Book Your Block, to book our accommodations at Bay Resort Hotel in Dewey Beach. SATB cancelled our tournament due to not enough teams registered and this hotel wouldn’t refund our deposit. Our entire team followed all the protocols of the tournament, and after almost 2 months of fighting to get our deposit back, this hotel refused to refund the $200 deposits from each of our 11 families nor give us credit for future stay. Don’t make the same mistake that our team made. — feeling furious.

We just got back from another wonderful stay at the best accommodations that Dewey Beach has to offer~ the finest amenities, the best location near all the restaurants, coffee shops, and the local bars and the most beautiful property with an incredible pool and booking a first floor bayside room is the absolute best~ coffee in the a.m. , having the perfect lunch and cocktails in the evening as the sun sets all the while with amazing views 24/7!! The staff, led by GM EXTRAORDINAIRE~TAMMY PARROTT ~ are on site making sure your stay is a memorable one. WHAT MORE COULD YOU ASK FOR?? THIS IS A MUST GO!!!!! SOOOOO HIGHLY RECOMMENDED, VERY AFFORDABLE and YOU CAN FISH OUT YOUR BACK DOOR!!!!!

We absolutely loved our stay in Dewey Beach and the Bay Resort was perfect for us. It's a solid, clean and friendly little resort, which makes us for what "frills" it might lack by a wonderful location.  The location - and price - is really the key selling point. You're right on the bay, with a very small beach and a long pier stretching out into the water. There is a friendly kayak / SUP rental place here too, and enough space for our younger kids to run around and play (plus there is a public playground a few minutes walk). There is also a nice pool - it's bigger than we expected and never got too crowded for our stay (mid week).  Rooms were clean and comfortable, if dated, and all the staff were friendly and helpful. The bay rooms have balconies overlooking the bay - a view that based on the houses nearby must literally be a million dollar view. It's just really nice to sit out - they're also in the shade during the morning and maybe early pm depending on the time of year. It was a little noisy out there in the evenings when there was music from the nearby venue, but we didn't hear that inside the rooms at all. Because the barrier island is so narrow at this point, even being on the bay, it's a 6 minute walk to the sea beach - which is beautiful, with lifeguards and even a roving Italian ice seller. No boardwalk, but there is one up in Rehoboth, about a mile north. The main road is the halfway point between Bay and Beach and has plenty of restaurants to choose from, plus live music venues and bars.  Between walking and the Jolly Trolley to Rehoboth, we hardly used our car at all - it was really nice to be able to just potter around and enjoy this beach community.  We'll be back - highly recommended. Just don't expect a luxury resort: this is a friendly and clean place, in good repair but perhaps a little dated. Everyone - guests and staff - were very friendly, plenty of kids but not overrun. If you want a good quality motel type experience in a perfect location, this is for you.

Always wanted to try Dewey Beach and chose the Bay Resort based on the location and online photos. The motel is very old and in need of updating. We were disappointed that the photos looked so much better than the property itself. Thank goodness for the bay view from our second floor balcony which was much enjoyed. Room: comfortable beds and pillows, clean enough however toilet slow flushing, hairdryer broken, shower head pipe loose in wall. Stove very old and we did not use and only a few bowls and cups and glad we hadn't planned on cooking. Small coffee maker appreciated. Requested room refreshes only however housekeeping would not leave 2 full sets of towels only random ones. Common areas: walkways to rooms not cleaned and full of sand and stains. A real turn off when walking to room and really unacceptable. Never saw anyone washing down or even sweeping outside areas and many times trash piled up by can by second floor stairway where guests dumped pizza boxes and trash bags from rooms. Also a real turn off. Pool: Small and seemed clean and small thin towels available to use there. Office Staff: Everyone encountered very nice and helpful. Also appreciated having coffee available 24 hours a day. Conclusion: We were told it is recently under new management and hopefully they will update the property as the location is very good. Until then I would not return as not up to my expectations.
