    We found the Bay Motel to be an absolute gem! the location couldn't be more perfect, right in front of the stunning bayfront and just steps away from the beach. the price was incredibly competitive, especially considering the prime location. As a family, we loved the spacious and beautifully appointed suite, which had everything we needed for a comfortable stay. the owners of the motel were also incredibly welcoming and made us feel right at home. if you're looking for a clean, comfortable, and affordable place to stay in the heart of all the action, look no further than the Bay Motel.

    Not much really, the only thing was that it was convenient to the shops and beach.

    I thought the staff were quite cordial on arrival but charged me another $20 for two beds on top of the original fee although I had requested two single beds. The woman was very rude when we requested the gate to be opened just after 9pm and were told to go around the back and the parking was really tight and very hard to manouver. The furnishings were very outdated and there was no extras in the room such as packaged biscuits, shampoo and conditioner. The whole room was unwelcoming and very cold and the bed linen was appalling, just one thin blanket. I would never recommend this establishment to anyone and we were lucky that we had only one night there.

    Great location opposite the beach with easy access to everything. Comfortable, clean, and spacious room with microwave and kettle. Helpful and polite manager. Newly renovated and very clean. Cute restaurants nearby and beautiful beach music in the afternoon.

    It's central to main beach, to nightlife, to shopping, to dining

    The sanitation of the toilet wasn't good enough, I smelled pungent odor of urine. It was good thing I always bring my hospital grade antibacterial liquid so I sprayed on the toilet seats, toilet area and killed all bacteria causing bad smell and I felt better in using the toilet.

    Great place with a nice view of the bay. It's located close to all the shops, cafes, and the beach. There are plenty of restaurants and cafes nearby, making it easy to find something to eat. Plus, it's not far from a cute little market where you can find unique items. 🌅

    My recent stay at Bay Motel was fantastic. Check-in was easy, and I was warmly welcomed by the friendly staff. The room was spotlessly clean and had all the amenities I needed, including a hairdryer, iron, microwave, fridge. They even provided towels for the beach, a nice touch. The motel's location is amazing, and having parking available was a bonus. I was pleased with my stay and would definitely book again. Despite a couple of minor drawbacks, I highly recommend this hotel.
