The Bay Front Suite picture shows the ground floor, beware that you must call and REQUEST ground floor. I understood from reviews on Hotels.com that the room would be a little rundown but I figured if you could walk out onto the sand I could deal. If you end up in a second story may as well go 4 or 5 star for the price!! They finally moved us to a ground floor room after quite a bit of complaining, told us we were being upgraded and we walked into a room that looked like a motel 6. Fine, at least we could walk out onto the sand.......woke up the next morning to BULLDOZERS dragging up the beach for 3 DAYS!!!! They finally stopped the day we were checking out. Perhaps the Bahia should offer some sort of drink vouchers or dinner vouchers for people paying PREMIUM prices to stay ON THE SAND if there are multiple bulldozers on the beach their ENTIRE stay (we took a picture the morning they were directly IN FRONT of our door)!! The employees were nice but no one really cared whether we had a nice stay or not. Would NOT recommend unless you don't mind Motel 6 for $300.00 a night!
Would NOT recommend.
