We stayed for four days and loved it. Gwen and Frank, owners of the Bay View Inn, are great! Frank picked us up at the boat, and took care of all our needs during our stay. Helped us with our golf cart rental, and setup a boat cruise for us. Gwen cooks an awesome breakfast, and it was different everyday!... more

I'll probably never visit Tangier Island again but will recommend the Bay View Inn for others who want to visit the island. We flew in (the airport like everything else is within walking distance of the inn) and checked in. Other than a reservation issue our stay was pleasant. The next morning the innkeepers provided their guests with a delicious... more

On a whim, my husband and I planned a short getaway to Tangier Island. First of all, I am glad we did not settle on a "day trip", one must really consider a night on the island. We stayed at the Bay View Inn and found our accommodations adequate for one night. Bedroom decor is 70s circa and somewhat warn.... more

We just returned from a two night adventure on the island. We took the ferry over from Crisfield, MD and upon arriving to Tangier Island there was Frank standing with a sign so you knew where to go. Frank escorted us back to the inn and off to our room we went. They had the air conditioner on and the... more

What a wonderful little place to unwind and let your cares drift away. The Bay View was more than I expected and the owners treated us like family and what a great Breakfast to start your day! The white sand beaches are some of the best I have been to and often we had them all to ourselves! The food... more

Great place to stay! Innkeepers were very friendly and eager to please. Plenty of decks and porches to relax on. The beach and town are only a short walk or bike ride away. It was a wonderful experience and we will definitely go back! more

The hotel was nice, the restaurants excellent, but not much else to do. An exellent choice if you are just looking to do nothing but relax, but otherwise you will be bored. The beach was nice but hard to get to, and once there the flies were so bad you couldn't lay in the sun and the bay was full... more

We had the best weekend on Tangier Island at Shirley's Bay View Inn. Kathy met us at the dock in a golf cart and was extremely friendly and helpful during our stay. It is true, there is nothing to do...except watching beautiful sunsets, walking on the beach and getting to know some islanders. Even our 11 year old had a... more

I returned from three days on Tangier enlightened and totally relaxed! Tangier was not at all like I expected...the wildlife was amazing, the beach was all mine (awesome sunsets!) and the seafood was the best I've ever had (and I've been all over the world). The islanders had these great, interesting accents and were really friendly. I cannot wait to... more
