Dockside restaurant to the rescue
Susan S (Petaluma, California) on Apr 30, 2026
First off Dockside restaurant saved it for us, had it not been for the restaurant on site being excellent on all fronts we would have checked out after our first day and cut our losses. Even though we were upgraded to a larger room due to the pool closure, the room was not clean, (sausage stuck to the carpet), no soap in the shower dispenser, sheets that were very uncomfortable, the sliding door hardly opened.....the list goes on. We knew it was going to be dated going in but were beyond disappointed once we were there. Serious updating is needed and they seem to be starting that but for what we paid in the state it's in made our experience far less than what we had hoped for.
Mid-Century Tropical Oasis

The Bahia Resort offers beautiful gardens, comfortable and clean rooms, friendly staff, a convenient location, and on-site restaurants featuring fresh and delicious options. The price was very fair considering all of the amenities. We had a wonderful week and highly recommend staying here.
Hidden Charges

Please make sure to read my earlier review about how wonderful the resort is to enjoy as a couples getaway. Just wanted to make sure that possible hotel clients watch for hidden charges that may appear on credit cards after the visit. We have been fighting for 3 months + to have an unauthorized charge removed from our card. After multiple calls and a few VM messages, we finally heard back that the $100 charge 3 days after we checked out with what we thought was our final receipt, was for "pool towels". I don't remember being told at check-in or anywhere it being listed on the site that we would be charge for pool towels. Hopefully, we will see the credit on our account this month - 4 months after our visit.
Great childhood memories

I haven't been to San Diego in years, but used to stay at the Bahia for a week every summer back in the 60's with my family when I was growing up. Drove down from our house in L.A. We used to have a kitchen, and I learned how to sail in the bay. Loved to visit Sea World and the Zoo. Miss those days!!
