The refrigerator didn’t work.. they only gave out one face cloth to Wash up with.. the shower drain was clogged up…didn’t drain properly..one day we didn’t have any hot water in our building #2… they only had sheets on the bed, no comforter.. they painted the roof in building two, and when I came back from outside, there was all type of dirt debris all over my room in the bed in my suitcase… if you booked this resort, ask them not to put you in building two It wasn’t a good experience at all.

The staff was excellent. They were so kind and willing to help. The room, however, we did not get a new clean washcloth at all. A couple times we had to asked for towels, and the water was not that warm, but we weren't in the room that long, so those are just minor things that the we found. All in all we had a fabulous experience with you.
This was the swim up pool bar that we spent a lot of time at.
This is the bar at the lobby.It's called the black and white.
This is just a picture outside our window.

Truly adults only unlike other adults only resorts that have shared common areas with children. The staff is amazing. The entertainment was fun, the food was pretty good, the green areas of the resort are beautiful as well as the wildlife however, the buildings and rooms are very, very outdated.

The front desk staff was rude, they spent zero time telling me about the property even after I told them I had never been there, the property is run down, there were never any beach towels so you had to use the same one all week, the loungers had holes, you had to beg for coffee, the alcohol they carry if awful, the food was poor, the room ac barely worked and you could see daylight through my roof, and they didn’t stop play loud music until after 2am, save your money and go somewhere else

The whole resort needs a renovation. The bathroom ceiling had a leak. The only thing good in the room was the air conditioner. The food variety was not that good; it seemed like the same food every day. The staff were very nice and friendly.

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.
