We really enjoyed our stay at Bay Shores. The staff were friendly and helpful, the beach was a block away, the bed and pillows were comfortable and restaurants were close by. We walked everywhere or grabbed an uber if needed, great vacation.

The entire staff demonstrated exceptional professionalism, exhibiting a high degree of friendliness, helpfulness, and kindness, qualities that are increasingly uncommon in contemporary service environments. The establishment's proximity to numerous dining options is a notable advantage. We particularly appreciated the enjoyable atmosphere, available entertainment, and the commendable tranquility experienced during the evening hours. Overall, the experience was truly exceptional. My spouse and I anticipate a return visit.

Amazing location, literally steps to the beach. The staff is very welcoming, friendly, and attentive. The rooms are superb, parisian beach vibes, especially the bathroom. The bed is very spacious and comfortable. The windows are semi operable, so you can let the wonderful and natural California weather in. Exquisite panaromic views from the outdoor rooftop areas. Counting the days to our next visit at Bay Shores Peninsula Hotel!
