Whole resort was sparse. Alcohol was lacking unless you paid $5 a shot for it. Place was run down and needs a lot of TLC to be “resort” status. Would definitely look for a better place if I ever came back.

It is obvious that the 4 star or higher reviews are either fake or paid for because Blue Bay is a complete dive. The rooms are disgusting and the room you see online is clearly a model room only. The door keys seem to reset at midnight and we had to get a new key literally every day. The food is truly gross and the only saving grace is the fresh salad. The alcohol is local and if you want actual good alcohol you have to pay for it. The staff is rude save maybe two which is surprising given these people work for tips. If I could give a negative rating I would, it was a waste of time and money and we will never return. The entire place needs to be shut down and go through a full mold remediation and remodel.

Staff was great and very accommodating. The food was decent. Room was clean but outdated. The bathroom sink had very low water pressure and wifi didn't work in the room. Those were the only issues I had. Other than that, it was a pleasant stay.

While our overall stay was nice and I would rate the accommodations as average, we had a HORRIBLE experience as we were leaving. After checking out, a staff member asked us when our transfer would be arriving to pick us up. I informed him that I had just ordered an Uber and it was on the way. He then told me that the hotel didnt allow Ubers to come pick up guests. They had taxis waiting for those that needed them outside. Well, these taxis charge $35 per ride to the airport while an Uber costs about $5. So we happily said that we would simply walk off the property to meet our Uber. This staff member said, well you can try. As soon as we walked across the street, two taxi drivers got out of their cars and began calling to us to come with them. We politely said no thank you. One man came over to us and asked if we had ordered an Uber. I said yes. He then stated that Ubers would not pick up there. It was taxi only. We stated that we were fine and that we would walk to meet our driver. At this point another driver came over and began trying to convince us that Ubers would not come to pick us up. At this point our driver arrived and this man literally got into his taxi and blocked our Uber while another taxi driver blocked the back of his car! He then came and began harassing our driver telling him that he wasn't allowed to take us to the airport. They refused to let us move until my husband said he was calling the police. The hotel should care more about the safety of guests. :(

This was my second time going to Blue Bay in 3 years. Love the staff and love the peace. The food is great, but they definitely limited the quality of drinks. They now have a “premium bar”. Most likely due to the tourism changes in the past years. BUT other than that, clean beach, pool and the staff are all super respectful and hospitable.Will continue to return.
