My husband and I had plans to go to the Big Bend area of Florida for my birthday weekend but Hurricane Idalia had other ideas- a couple of days before we were to go, we looked for Plan B and made a reservation for the Bay Town Inn- it was a great experience! We stayed two nights in The Lighthouse Suite (room 12), the only room upstairs in that building so it had a large private balcony overlooking the pool and courtyard area with two rockers, side table and two additional chairs providing a great place to sit and relax. The basket of information about things to do and places to eat or shop was helpful even though we have visited the area before. The host has thought of everything in this very clean and bright 750 sq ft room from charming decor, a comfy king size bed, two robes, a well stocked kitchenette, a large shower, fluffy towels, toiletries, hair dryer - the photos are exactly accurate. Additionally, we arrived to fresh flowers, a welcome note with two cake balls, and a first morning breakfast of coffee, freshly baked muffins, granola bars, yogurt, orange juice, coke, diet coke and waters in the refrigerator (complimentary). The commercial ice maker just downstairs by the pool was easy to access and handy. A hot cooked breakfast is included on Saturdays and Sundays- we had scrambled eggs, grits, bacon, sausage, muffins and a beautiful assortment of fruit (honeydew melon, strawberries, blueberries, raspberries and pineapple arranged buffet style for self serve in the adjacent restaurant that was open only for hotel guests for breakfast from 9-10 a.m. It was delicious and a nice amenity. The pool was lovely and had plenty of seating areas and beach towels provided and we enjoyed cooling off there after walking around the very cute town of BSL. The landscaped courtyard and pool area was very private from the street. Two very important details were a designated parking spot (parking is challenging in some places in town) and being only a block from the main downtown area of restaurants, bars and shops so you never needed to use your car once you arrive and check in. We very much enjoyed our stay at Bay Town Inn, highly recommend it and will return!…
