Great location, the first room we stayed the bathroom was not very clean, they moved us bc we wanted a bay view room. We noticed the carpet was wet near the air conditioner, we thought maybe it was just carpet cleaner, but it never went away, we left the balcony door open, in hopes that the sun would dry it up. That didn’t work, thinking it could’ve been the air conditioner. The staff was extremely friendly, and the views were amazing.

The hotel is old. No elevator. We were sold a pool view room with balcony. We did not have a pool view on the corner. We viewed other rooms. The bay view is much smaller than the pics. Rooms are expensive and old. Nice to be 2 blocks from the beach.

Weekend in Dewey
Stayed in a first floor overlooking the bay. Room was clean and in pretty good shape. You can’t beat the location of this hotel. Everything in Dewey is pretty much walking distance. I would stay here again.

Great stay at the Bay Resort in Dewey
Check- in was fast, friendly and welcoming! The young lady checking me in was fabulous! This is our second time staying here with equally excellent experiences! The resort is convenient to all Dewey local spots. It is clean, with a pool and right on the bayside. Very quiet at nights and comfortable rooms. We are happy to recommend this business and will stay here in the future.

30 minutes prior to our arrival we were told our reservation made four months prior would not be available.A fifty dollar credit was issued. We were placed in a room with two double beds, not a king as reserved. Pot smoking in the room adjacent,not a pleasant stay!
