Horrible!!!

Absolutely horrible. Couldn’t check in until almost 5 pm. No comfrorters on beds, just a sheet. Place doesn’t even seem like it is ready to accommodate guests. We used to love this place. They said they are renovating!!! They said they had to charge $100 deposit which would be refunded. After 2 weeks it still wasn’t refunded. Called the office and they said it slipped through the cracks. Assured me it would go back on my card. That was 2 months ago and it never was credited back to my card. I got tired of begging for it and just won’t be back. Worst hotel stay i’ve had in a longggggg time. They shouldn’t be opened for business

Great location, price and friendly and helpful staff. Boat ramp was close by to get to crab island and cute area and restaurants to walk to. Only cons were the room could use a little more care, but we expected as much for the price. The coffee maker had mold in it. No remote in the room for the tv. The smoke detector was pulled off the wall and beeping when we arrived. If you just want a place to sleep after a long day on the water, in a good location, and not spend a fortune, then this is the place for you. The beds were clean and comfortable.

The view was nice from the balcony. The hall ways where very sticky and not mopped, along with the floor in our room. Things should be upgraded.

When we first arrived we were asked if we would take a double water view room instead of room w/kitchenette bc airbnb advertises wrong rooms. Since we were only staying for one night I said sure. While walking down the hall there were 2 dogs just roaming around and approached us. When we got to room it smelled of cleaning detergent and beer. The toilet had urine in it, there was no shower curtain and the coffee maker was near toilet. The AC unit looked dirty. Outside on balcony there was trash including an empty Coors Light can. As we were traveling with an 8 month old, we decided not to stay there. There was no manager on duty as we left and there wasnt one 5 hours later when expedia tried to contact one.

Truly disappointed in the staff with exception to Aspen. We felt unwelcome whenever we took our dog out to pee, there was a tenant who owned a cat and told us we could not stay the night. Additionally, their water pipes are old as we got brown residue all throughout our stay. None of the outlets work so we missed our alarms cause our phones were dead. This gave us a really old vibe which could appeal to some but truly should’ve seen it before we arrived. I currently have 200 dollars unaccounted for after our stay because Marina bay took them out of my account and has yet to credit us back? Unfortunately from all the stays we’ve had with Expedia this has to be the worst one.

Picture This !

Marina Bay Resort was somewhat of a disappointment. Don't believe every picture you see. The staff were nice but the condition of the facility was old and outdated. You were charged 25.00 for early check-in, yet the parking lot was empty when we arrived. Check-in time was 4 p.m. and check-out was 10 a.m. What's the use of staying here? Parking lot was empty most of the time. We saw only a few people around. View from the poolside overlooking the marina was terrific! Accommodations weren't so good. Bed was comfortable. Charging 5.00 for lost wristbands and 1.00 for lost rooms keys was concerning. No one was available during early morning hours. The gym area didn't seem clean and well kept. The pool was refreshing, though. The place needs a total make-over. It does have incredible potential.

Not clean, decent service, but would not go again

The stay was adequate at best. We rented a suite with our friends. We got there and allegedly got the last room available because when we were in our room, we found that the ac was broken in the bedroom, the hairdryer didnt work, the couch, mirror, and toilet all had hair or dirt on them. The couch had a dead cockroach, old food, and garbage underneath it. There were several live and dead beetles. All of this in itself isnt the end of the world, but they offered no real help and no rooms were apparently available. They offered partial compensation if i came back but otherwise i was SOL. I was happy with the lady at the front desk, however the complete lack of cleanliness led to my wife sleeping with a bag on her head and myself sleeping without any blankets to not melt in the florida heat.
