Bay Club Hotel & Marina

10/10 Excellent
"I would like to give special recognition to the gentleman at the reception who made such a wonderful impression on us. From the moment we spoke with him, he was incredibly kind, welcoming, and genuine. His name is Zijan. What impressed me most was how proudly and enthusiastically he spoke about the hotel. You could really feel that he enjoys his work and genuinely cares about the guests and the hotel he represents. He was very knowledgeable, and professional. Excellent customer service is not only about being helpful—it is also about making guests feel comfortable, valued, and welcome. He certainly did that for us. He is a wonderful representative of the hotel, and employees like him are one of the reasons guests would want to return. Please extend our sincere appreciation to him for making our experience even more memorable. Zijan at Bay Club hotel in Shelter Island."

"Over all the stay was good. The bar had good food and drinks. The pool has a small amount of seating and ran out of towels early in the day. The paid parking was very limited and the street parking was next to impossible to get a spot without having to circle around a million times. The other frustrating thing was our room key kept having to be reactivated, we were told that they keys were sensitive so we had to keep the away from our phones and other electronic to keep them working but even with following that advice we still had issues with the keys."
