Reviews for Balboa Bay Resort

Private equity already ruined this place

TripAdvisor Traveler Review Rating Reviewed 2 weeks ago

Private equity firm, Eagle Four Partners, has come destroyed what made this place great. Don’t both anymore. It’s too late. Hotel director, Cindy, is powerless. Cuts to staff and wages are painfully obvious. Here’s all you need to know. An employee accidentally kicked over my elderly father’s cane, knew it, then opted not to pick it up until I confronted him.

Home away from home

TripAdvisor Traveler Review Rating Reviewed 1 month ago

The Balboa Bay Club is our home away from home! We live in LA but come to stay here to get away from the craziness in LA. We love the vibe. Always have a room with a Bay View. The service, the food , the bars are amazing! We enjoyed the Tequila Dogs concert which was a highlight to our stay! Will keep coming back til we move here!

Very unpleasant Oder

TripAdvisor Traveler Review Rating Reviewed 1 month ago

Our experience at the hotel was nice, the accommodations were nice however there was a really bad smell at the bar A+ O. I got to the hotel on Friday and we checked out on Monday each day at the bar. The smell got worse the last day that we were there we went outside to eat because we couldn’t take the smell in the restaurant area either and then ended up leaving and not eating at all.
