This "resort" was damaged/shut down by Hurricane Dolly this summer. We had booked our family vacation there before Dolly hit. We were concerned and watched newscasts and asked people who knew the area about damage. We did not get any information that had us worried. BAHIA MAR WAS ONE OF A FEW HOTELS THAT SUSTAINED SUBSTANTIAL DAMAGE AND THEY DID... more

Hotel is one of the oldest and most delapidated properties on the island. From the moment we drove up we knew we had made a mistake. It is not at all like the website depicts it. Luckily we found another place to stay before we had to stay the night. Do not waste your money on this hotel. We stayed... more

If you have plans to stay here cancel them immediately! If you do not you will wish you heeded my warning. The resort is in dire need of a makeover. If you want to step into the 70's stay here. There was so much mold in our condo, i fear i may have an upper respiratory ailment. There were cockroaches... more

This was a host hotel for an event we went to. After reading the review I was scared to arrive, but was surprised to find it wasn't as terrible as described and thank goodness we did not have the AC problems so many others mention...actually our room was downright cold sometimes! The best thing was that it was on the... more

This hotel is an older hotel so you can tell it needs some updating and the hall to our room smelled like puke so that was a turn off. We had issues w/ our AC not working which was a huge inconvenience since it's pretty hot down there. The front desk said it happens a lot there so they said... more

Upon arrival into the dump, we were horrified to realize that we had booked a 6 night vacation based on their web site and reputation. Before we had finished unloading our suitcases, the ants and roaches had already covered our belongings. We tried to call the manager but she was "in a meeting" or "away from the property". We asked... more

My family and I spent a week in South Padre Island. We rented one of the condos at the Bahia Mar. The condo was extremely dirty. There were cockroaches in the unit, cheetos mashed into the carpet and the dishes in the condo were put back in the cabinets with food on them. There was not one single vending machine... more
