The beach!!
Gerry L.

My wife surprised us for a nice little getaway to Key Largo this past weekend. Upon arriving to the property which is called Bayside Inn I was shocked because I stayed in the same place 30 years ago with parents. The place gave me a hit of nostalgia from that trip. The hotel has showed some age from the simple rooms to the tiny bathroom. It has a little man made beach on the back, which was awesome to see the sunsets.

We booked our room at Bayside Inn Key Largo thru Booking.com. We had to pay up front. We were supposed to have 2 beds, all the amenities plus a private pool and a view of the Premier Island water view. After we were checked in by a lady who's name we didnt catch, another lady by the name of Sharon or Shari took us to a first floor room by the parking lot with NO private pool and NO view of Premier Island. Our view was of a oil tank or gas tank in some weeds in the back parking lot about 10 feet from our window!! Really?? Shari said this was the room we would have and the room we paid for was already taken and that they only have 3 of those type of rooms and they are always booked up by "regulars". So we were out of luck! We were crushed! Why did they even advertise them? They don't allow cancellations and we didn't want to lose our money for a 2 night stay. I couldn't believe we had a Bait and Switch scam played on us. We didn't know what to do. This was not right. However, Shari remembered there was a 2-bed room on the 3rd floor that had basically the same view but showed more of the tops of the trees instead of the gas tank. She urged us to at least look at it. We looked and it wasn't as bad as the other one and we didn't want to drive all the way home or lose our entire payment so we accepted. I wasn't pleased that we paid for a private pool and water view and had to settle for this average room. I could see that Shari was uncomfortable about what happened. She helped us bring up all our suitcases and was a very nice lady. I dont think she was at fault in this situation. I would like to know who was though. Our room in 316 was clean and seemed a bit larger than the 1st floor one. The view was of tree branches with pretty green leaves and we saw the gas tank below us and the parked cars. As long as we didn't look down, it was ok. We had a desk, dresser drawers, a fridge, a safe, a microwave, coffee maker, ironing board and iron, a roomy closet and a private shower/toilet with door. The sink was next to the entry. The beds and pillows were comfortable. Everything worked fine. The swimming pool in the back could use updating and was only 3 ft deep even though in the middle it said 4 ft. I knew it wasn't 4 ft because I am 5'6" and it came to my waist. It's not cold when you get in. There were chaise lounges available with small tables. The private beach area is small but very nice. There were paddle boards and kayaks available. People were swimming and sunbathing. Next door was Snook's restaurant for breakfast, lunch and dinner and there was a shortcut to it near the pool. Great food and ambiance at Snook's. If we didn't have the fiasco that we experienced, then I might have given 3.5- 4 stars. Bayside does take good care of the rooms and Shari was outstanding with her customer service.

Beach area to take out paddle boards and kayaks. Also docks with chairs and water access for swimming and sunbathing.

Loved this motel. It was so convenient and clean. The rooms are upgraded and felt very clean (minus all the sand we tracked in). The bathroom is upgraded with a nice walk in shower. The water access was my favorite part. They have a great waterfront area with seating, hammocks and a pool. The best part is the complimentary SUPs and Kayaks! I loved taking those out in the evening. The bar next door was also amazing. Good food, great drinks, and walking distance to our room. Overall I didn't have any negatives to my stay and would 100% book here again.

Stayed here over the weekend and was pleasantly impressed. The staff was accommodating as we had an issue upon arrival. Our room was rennovated, spacious, modern, and very clean. Love that they provide Tommy Bahama products in the room (shampoo, conditioner, body wash, & lotion). Our room was steps away from their pool, cabanas and beach. They have kayaks and paddleboards for use on the beach. They also have beach cruisers for guests to enjoy. The property is a few steps away from Snooks restaurant and tiki bar. Parking was also a breeze. This super cute hotel is also pet friendly. Loved our stay and will likely be back. Thank

Great location. Right next to a restaurant called snooks which has good food and live music/ drinks. They even have happy hour. The rooms were clean, nothing spectacular but decent for the price. We chose this hotel because it's dog friendly but we were a little disappointed that we were told dogs aren't allowed in the water at the beach. In my opinion that is not completely dog friendly so just keep that in mind if you plan to bring your fur baby. Other than that the sunset and beach setup was spectacular and the staff is friendly.

You have to ask them about your dog maybe you have to ask them

Hi i want to know if the so proclaimed "private beach" its like a normal beach ...like the ones with sand and water to swim ? ...what i understand from the reviews is a deck most likely but from the staff its not so clear .thanks

Bayside Inn Key Largo has a private beach with access to the water. Enjoy kayaking and paddle boarding from the beach into the Florida Bay.

It's a little confusing at first, but you catch on pretty quick. There is a great beachfront area with lots of lounge chairs to watch the sunrise or sunset or just feel like you are right on the ocean. This is almost right across the street from Jon Penny camp State Park. I went snorkeling and went right back to my room. It was all an amazing experience! There are several great restaurants and stores to shop around here. Oh, and let's not forget the warm cookies when you arrive! Just like all Hamptons, this place offers an amazing breakfast offering for free. Everything from homemade waffles to scones.

The pool area is well-lit at night, and the rooms are spacious, with a king bedroom that includes a sink, microwave, and a larger refrigerator. A new flat-screen television is also available. There's a couch and table area with a slider leading to a private balcony, which has a table and two chairs. The breakfast buffet is standard, featuring a self-serve waffle station.

We recently stayed at Baker's Cay Resort Key Largo, part of the Hilton collection, over winter…read morebreak. As Hilton Gold members, we were fortunate to receive a small room upgrade at booking, which we definitely appreciated. Let me start with the highlights the resort amenities are wonderful, especially for families. There were plenty of complimentary activities for kids during the day, and even fun nighttime events like dancing that were adorable and well thought out. It truly felt family-friendly, and there was always something going on to keep everyone entertained. The cutest was Santa pics with cookies and milk! The staff was attentive and kind throughout our stay, and honestly, that goes a long way. Great service can elevate an entire experience, and they really delivered on that front. That said, at nearly $1,000 per night during peak season, I did expect the facilities and rooms to be in better condition. The property has so much potential, but parts of it felt a bit rundown for the price point. The rooms could use some attention and deeper cleaning. I completely understand that this is a beachfront resort and sand is inevitable however we noticed quite a bit of sand throughout the room, even on the bed when it had been freshly made. I've stayed at other beach resorts where housekeeping was a bit more thorough in that regard. However nothing crazy but cleanliness is big in my book. One morning, there was also a cockroach at the coffee cart. My husband reported it right away to the front desk. The next few mornings the cart wasn't out, and I'm assuming they were addressing the situation, which I appreciate but it was still a bit off-putting. The on-site restaurants were good not extraordinary, but enjoyable and I felt the pricing there was fair considering it's a resort property. Overall, we had a great experience. The resort has incredible potential, and with a little more attention to upkeep especially considering the premium nightly rate it could easily be a five-star stay. The friendly staff and activities made a big difference.

Do not expect anything special. No concierge level, no decent free coffee service and when you buy…read moresomething such as food and drink there is a 20% service charge and high prices to begin with. And don't forget the tax man as he is expensive as well. We had coffee from the coffee truck in the lobby and for a regular coffee and a latte it was $21 with the fees. 2 drinks at the pool was $42 with the fees and 2 apps from the bar last night was $50 with a $5 tip. Total rip off for what you get. We have stayed at Hiltons in 16 countries including the Grand Wailea Maui and have never seen these types of numbers. 10+ years as a Diamond with Hilton and this is a shameful experience. It would be different if the rooms made up for it but they are no better than a redone drive up motel as it is noisy all night long with halls open to the parking lot.

Friendly, hilarious, lightning-fast, and somehow knew exactly what we wanted before we did. Is she psychic? Possibly. The food and drinks were on point, the vibe was beachy and fun, but Helen took the whole experience from "great night out" to "I'm telling everyone I know about this place." If you're lucky enough to get her as your server, buckle up you're in for top-tier service and a lot of laughs. 10/10 would return. 11/10 if Helen's working!

There is only 1 bartender at the large bar at the pool/beach, with like ~40 chairs, as well as servers bringing drinks to the hundreds of folks on the beach. The servers literally yelling at the bartender to hurry up while everyone at the bar is fighting for his attention. Time to get a drink ~40 minutes. At the front desk, they have 2 employees helping with lines of 10+ people waiting for help. All phone calls to guest services and the concierge are ignored, as they explained, because they are too busy. The restaurants are also too busy to pick up the phone, so after being on hold for 30 mins, we walked over to make a reservation. When we arrived for dinner, they had lost the reservation and told us we should have called...despite then admitting they aren't picking up the phone because its too busy. They told us they couldn't seat us or otherwise help us, and to go somewhere else for food. Which seemed rude and unnecessary. Overall, the staff seem really stressed and need some support. Come on Marriot, please hire a few folks to help run this beautiful property.

We had a bungalow that was beach front and it was really beautiful. We loved sitting on our little porch and just enjoying the views. The quiet side of the beach (where our bungalow was located) had really nice ambiance. There are sun chairs everywhere. Beautiful string lights and tiki torches for night time. Outdoor beach beds with curtains and lounge beds with visors you can pull down. The bungalow itself has an indoor shower and also an outdoor soaking tub and shower. You get your own bikes to ride around the property. The air conditioning was very good. The sheets were lovely. Everything was clean and in good working order. It also felt very private. We loved the breakfast buffet. The fruit and pastries were our favorites. We also loved Bogey and Bacall's. We didn't love Sea Senor's as much, although it was really fun and beautiful eating right by the beach. The food was just a bit bland. Another thing that I didn't fully realize until we got there was that there isn't a traditional beach. There is sand but it is lined by a rocky coast. You can swim in the ocean and you access it by stairs. So that is something to keep in mind. The pools were lovely and clean. But they could be bigger and maybe have like a water feature or something to improve the ambiance. The pools all close at sunset. Which also was a bit of a bummer and we weren't sure why. But we enjoyed swimming in them. We also didn't realize that seating around the pool is limited and if we wanted to have chairs by the pool, we'd have to get there early and save seats. The spa was incredible. We got a couples massage and it was one of the best massages I have ever had. Definitely recommend going there and treating yourself. Overall our experience was wonderful and romantic and relaxing. The only thing that prevents me from wanting to go back is not having a traditional beach where you can just walk into the ocean and swim. But if that isn't a priority for you, this place is absolutely wonderful!
