Bahia Resort Hotel

Bahia Resort Hotel

8/10 Good
"Our bayfront room was beautiful and comfortable. The front desk was very kind and sent a complimentary bottle of wine to our room as we celebrated our 25th anniversary, having been married on the William D Evans in 2001. Apart from the low pressure and lag in hot water coming out of the shower, and the curtains not quite closing fully, we very much enjoyed our stay. The price was a tad high for a Sunday night at $460 incl fees, but the king size bed and thermostat made it an extremely comfortable over night stay. The proximity of the Bahia to both the bay and the ocean, is fabulous! We rented bikes and enjoyed a ride down the boardwalk. Thank you to the Bahia and staff for a lovely anniversary stay!"

"Very good location. Not walkable but driving is easy to go around. The coffee at the hotel was something else, not a usual "hotel coffee". This was a great coffee to our surprise. Parking is easy to find and very available. The feel is more like being at an apartment complex. Liked it. Could go back if found a good deal."

"The rooms were very clean and simple yet well appointed. The pool and patio area were very well maintained and very clean. The bed was a little hard. I consider it an excellent midrange option with great restaurants and parking. Would definitely stay again."

"Love staying here every time we come to SD! We come at least once a year and it's always such a pleasant experience. The staff is always friendly and helpful which we really appreciate 😊 The rooms are always clean, and I love that they provide a rubber mat for the bathtub. There's also shampoo, conditioner and body wash in the bathrooms which is a big plus for me 😁 Looking forward to our next visit. 👍"
