This hotel has 2 views to pick from...marina or the bay. Marina side is quiet and the Bay side is beautiful. I prefered the Bay side. Staff is very helpful, (especially Jody) Continental breakfast in the mornings. Eggs, bacon or sausage, potatoes, pancakes and cold cereals. Juice , coffee and milk. Everyone was very friendly and willing to help. More

My assistant double booked me at this hotel and another nearby. Since I needed to be at the other location, I needed to cancel this one. When it came down to it, Aaron bent the rules for me and was very understanding. Next time I am going to Shelter Island, I will definitely stay with Bay Club!! More

What a great place to stay in San Diego. Right on the Bay with good views and a park for walking and running on the bay. Customer service is excellent. They helped me with printing out my boarding pass. Breakfasts are good. Rooms large. We will return. More

We just returned from a 2 night stay at the Bay Club Hotel & Marina in San Diego. Although this is an older property, it is well maintained and very clean. We were greeted by a very friendly staff. Our room was ready early and we had a gorgeous view of the harbor. The free buffet breakfast was delicious. We... More

I have been coming to this 'private clubby' little Resort, since I was in grade-school w/ my parents. (Really dating my self...) Lately, I've had the opportunity to be in S.D. on a rotating basis, and have chosen this dreamy Shelter Island spot, once more. The property is small so you avoid the irritating crowds and 'hoards', that flock to... More

I used to stay at the Bay Club for work prior to 2006 and absolutely enjoyed the location, service and quality of the facility. It was great to see that nothing has changed on my recent visit 01/27/2012 -01/29/2012. The staff provided outstanding service from the time of reception until checkout. They have large rooms, with big LCD TVs. Although... More

Not super fancy, but just right. Great views, great location and great complimentary breakfast. Like others have said, not just your typical cereal and muffins. We had a wonderful time and really enjoyed our stay. More

We have been going to the Bay Club for fifteen years. Where else will you get either a full view of the yacht basin or ships coming and going in San Diego Harbor? The hot breakfast buffet is free. The neighborhood is quiet and the hotel is conveniently located within reach of all of San Diego's features. The cost is... More
