There's a real resort feel to this Mission Bay hotel. On a 14-acre peninsula, the views are quite something, and you’re just steps from the the calm bay waters. Head to the white sandy beach and grab yourself a beach cabana or take a stroll through the lush tropical gardens. The pool is a great spot too and the huge hot tub is just the ticket on a cooler evening. Don't miss an evening cruise around the bay on the Bahia Belle paddle steamer — there’s drinks, live entertainment and views galore.

This was the second event my company has hosted at the Bahia and they take great care of us and our guests. From the moment we checked in, we were given the best service. Ben at the front desk was a great first impression to have, he was helpful and warm and set the tone for the whole weekend on the property. The location is great, just minutes from the beach and seconds from the bay that the hotel wraps around. The rooms were nice and clean, and everyone from our company event enjoyed staying here.

Birthday 2 day get away. Had a nice time at mission beach and pacific beach. Have a great time! Thank you Diante Ashby from Bahia resort hotel. Made sure I had a nice room and view! First time seeing the seal pond. Took a nap on the private bay front.
Excellent location and nice rooms except for small bathrooms.

Lovely location on private sand beach. Many ground level garden rooms with lovely ponds and paths. Room was nice. Bathroom was very small with virtually no counter space. That is the major deficiency. Nice staff. Lovely dining room overlooking the bay, but expensive.
Great staff!

Renee is such a great asset to the company!! She was so helpful and made my booking experience sooo easy! She not only did my reservation, but she did it for my entire party. All they had to do was call and she was ready with all the information we needed.
Looking forward to our stay!
