Marina Bay Resort

Na

This was our family's 12th time staying at Marina Bay, and it was definitely our last. We really tried to give the new owner the benefit of the doubt, but it is as if the owner doesn't really want people to be at the resort, he just wants people to pay for a resort. We paid twice as much this year for less space. We should have stayed on Okaloosa Island with the rest of our friends. Everything says the pool is heated, but the owner decided not to heat it anymore. The deck chairs are far from inviting. The hot tub had stuff growing in it, and plenty of stuff floating. The "Retro Room" which had been a great place to meet, is no longer open to guests even though it's on the map and the sign on the door says it's a great place for guests to gather. There used to be a great sand volleyball court, but now one of the posts is gone and it's just overgrown. There is a game room which could be a good space if anyone cared for it. Little things like having a functional net on the ping pong table could easily be addressed, but clearly isn't a priority. When we went to get into bed the first night, we realized the bed had been completely made, except without a fitted sheet! Apparently we were supposed to sleep on the mattress pad! The kitchen showed more examples of not caring about the people staying there. It's supposed to be a somewhat stocked kitchen, but it's just whatever was leftover. We had two spoons and bowls for four people, no cookie sheet or way to heat something in the oven, and a mini coffee maker with regular sized filters. Our friends paid about the same price for condos on Okaloosa Island.

You can fishing at the hotel back small pier.

The kids loved the pool, the jacuzzi and game room! Beautiful view no complaints. It was just a wonderful trip for our little family.

Easily accessible to local storefronts, coffee and breakfast. Easy parking. Hardly any one at the property other than folks who call it their residence. Other than the multitude of cockroaches we had to handle in the room during our 8 night stay, our time here was acceptable for the low price of $850 (9 days, 8 nights).

I really enjoyed the views and the staff.I always love it there 🙂

Worst experience ever! Dirty place with dirty bed sheets, bed bugs, no staff after 4:30 so I couldn’t even move rooms and they denied my refund. Had to sleep in my car until I found a new hotel. Don’t stay here, the proximity isn’t worth it.

The room was outdated. It look like a dorm room with a king size bed in it. The bathroom wasn't clean. The pictures online are misleading.
