Often, a person needs a vacation to rest after their vacation...This was not the case with our stay at the Bay Shores Hotel. This 25 room hotel has the feel of a Bed and Breakfast. From check-in through check-out, the Hotel and the city of Newport Beach provided a stress free, relaxing environment. At check-in, we were greeted by a... more

My wife and I were in the area for a friend's wedding and wanted a special weekend to ourselves after that experience. The Bay Shores did not disappoint. The beach was adjacent to the hotel and there were many fine dinner choices nearby-almost to many. Clay especially helped us with some sage advice and assistance. In fact, all the staff... more

We stayed here with our two year old and loved the little touches the hotel offered like hot cookies and sand toys! The staff was friendly and had good suggestions about local restaurant options. We stayed in a third floor king room and while spotlessly clean it is a little snug with an air mattress(we brought) on the floor for... more

Me n the wife stayed here for 2 nights at the back end of our 3 week USA bonanza. We arrived from LA with the proviso of bein able to see the beach if not directly on it, we weren't dissappointed. The 'Bay Shores' is literally 50 metres from the beach and you can even see it from some rooms... more

I like family-run places because, unlike chains, they care. After all, there's nobody in "corporate" who decides what's best for guest (me!) and instead you get people who truly care. The staff at the Bay Shores Peninsula hotel care, and it shows. The rooms are clean and comfortable. It seems like they were updated recently. We checked out other hotels... more

My wife and I wanted to spend a few days at the beach before a conference in Anaheim so we looked around to find something relatively close. Our favorite all time B&B in Dana Point (which would have been 50% more) was booked solid. So I relied on Trip Advisor and their rankings to lead us to the Bay Shores... more

A hotel cant get any better than this. My boyfriend brought me here to spend my 21st birthday here. As soon as we walked in we where greeted and proceeded to check in, they asked us if we wanted any movies. Thay actually have movies you can borrow while your there, we did get one and then we where offered... more

I took three buddies here on a sportfishing trip in May that left from Newport Beach. It was great! We caught our weight in fish and had an excellent time. The hotel was clean and comfortable, plenty of nightlife in the local area and the bay and the beach were just steps from the front door. Mike, John, and myself... more

We spent one night on the Newport beach, which was a beautiful experience, most of the family's first view of the Pacific Ocean. The management of the hotel is very friendly and accommodating. The property, although older, has been renovated with nice artwork and is spotlessly maintained. It is a block one way to the marina and a block the... more
