Staying at Bayside Villas was a mixed experience for us. We enjoyed the spacious accommodations and appreciated the lovely sunset views. However, the unit we stayed in had some upkeep issues that really took away from our stay. It would be great to see improvements in maintenance and service for activities that didn't go as planned.

This resort offers a fantastic getaway for families, with spacious townhomes that provide a comfortable stay. The location is perfect for enjoying local restaurants and fishing opportunities, but there were some issues with cleanliness and maintenance. The staff was friendly and accommodating, though the key system needs improvement to enhance convenience.

The townhomes provided a spacious and comfortable base for my family's visit, with some really stunning sunset views. However, we encountered issues like cleanliness and a lack of essential kitchen items. Additionally, the dining options while on the boat cruise were underwhelming, which was disappointing considering the price we paid for our stay.

My stay at the Islanders Bayside had its ups and downs. The location is undeniably fantastic, and I loved the spacious townhome setup which was perfect for our family. However, cleanliness was a major concern as the unit had ants, and the kitchen wasn't in the best shape upon arrival. Additionally, there was some difficulty with the service, especially regarding the check-in process and handling of requests which left much to be desired.

My stay at Islander Bayside Villas had its ups and downs. The resort is family-friendly, with amenities that cater to kids, and the outdoor grill was a fantastic perk! However, I did encounter significant cleanliness issues, particularly with an overwhelming marijuana smell in our room, which really put a damper on our experience. While the golf cart service to the nearby Islander Resort was a fun touch, waiting times could be frustrating compared to driving ourselves. Overall, the amenities and family-friendly atmosphere are commendable, but cleanliness needs immediate attention.
