The Bay Front Inn had lovely hardwood floors and a charming beachy decor. Navigating the grounds was easy due to the smooth walkways, making it senior-friendly. The nearby beach was just a delightful stroll away!
More senior-oriented seating in common areas.

We stayed in the King Room. The bed was comfy and huge, which was a nice surprise. The TV was big too, and having a microwave and fridge was super handy for leftovers. The room had a nice tub/shower combo, but it was a bit noisy since we heard folks walking by. The location was a quick drive to the Boardwalk, and you could hear the rain fall, which was kinda cozy.

The location is unbeatable, just a short walk to the beach and boardwalk, which made it super convenient for our plans. The bed in our room was very comfortable, and I appreciated the friendly staff who were helpful throughout our stay. I accidentally took my friend's key, but the front desk quickly made me a new one, which I was grateful for. However, the wifi situation was a letdown. It didn't work well at all – I struggled just to watch videos. Also, the shower was lukewarm at best. I like my showers hot. Overall, if you don’t need reliable wifi, this place might be a decent choice.

Clean linens and decent beds made for a comfortable sleep, which is crucial after a long day. The location near the beach is perfect for quick access to the ocean and scenic views.
The pool looked unswimmable with green water, leaving my kids disappointed. Small rooms made it feel cramped, and the absence of an elevator resulted in lugging our bags up the stairs. Parking situations were iffy. spaces were often taken by non-guests, which is frustrating when paying for a room. Cleanliness was also lacking as floors felt dirty, and the overall vibe hit a snag with a lingering smokey smell.

Had an awesome time with my friends here! We loved being so close to the beach and the Boardwalk. The service was quick and the room was spacious. Perfect for chilling after visiting the rides and enjoying nearby food spots. Definitely recommend if you want a fun getaway!
The only downside was the parking situation—got a bit crowded at times. We managed to find spots, but it was a hassle. Just keep that in mind when you arrive!
