Our family had a great stay at Willow Bay! Staff were very friendly and our room was perfect for my husband and I and our two young kids. Our boys loved the bunk beds and easy walk to the beach. Check-in process was smooth and the woman at the front was very personable and welcoming. The location was great and parking was easy. We would definitely stay again!

My family and I thoroughly enjoyed our stay at this beautiful oceanfront property. The view from our 7th-floor balcony was amazing. Although the property is a bit older, it is safe, quiet, and peaceful. We will definitely be making another trip.

We enjoyed our stay . We wanted a quiet place that could accommodate a family of 5 . Our group had 2 suites . They were both clean and updated . I saw some reviews complaining about the rooms but we were more than happy with the resort and our rooms Right on the beach and the ocean is practically on your doorstep . Angie at the front desk was very helpful . Will definitely stay again .

Very dirty overall. Communal trash in hallway was not emptied from Thursday to Sunday, smelled. Showers had minimal water pressure and everything was in need on a good scrubbing.

This property view was awesome. But the property itself was worst. It was having roaches spiders. We booked their best priced room still it was like that. No hair dryer in the room. No one in reception ever. Landry machines took money didn't work.

Great Place To Stay
The two ladies working there were very helpful and truly care about their customers, they went above and beyond to make sure my wife and I were happy with our stay. We’ve stayed in motels everywhere but have never stayed in a nicer more clean motel than Willow Bay. We highly recommend this place , we will definitely be staying there in the future.

4-Star Review for Willow Bay
Check-in was super easy—they sent all the information straight to my phone, which made the process quick and stress-free.
My family and I were initially happy with our room, but as the evening went on, we ran into a couple of issues that unfortunately couldn’t be resolved right away. Thankfully, the host/receptionist Angie was incredibly helpful. She immediately contacted the manager and got us a complimentary upgrade to a better room!
Thanks to Angie and the rest of the Willow Bay staff, we were able to relax and truly enjoy the rest of our vacation. Their quick response and commitment to guest satisfaction really made a difference. We appreciate the excellent service and would definitely stay here again.

The people were so nice. So helpful. Older property but quaint and charming. Not as busy as surrounding hotels. Lots of ongoing improvements to the rooms. Internet pretty strong. Little pizza grocery right outside the front entrance. Parking so easy.
