Bali Hai Beachfront Resort and Spa

Bali Hai Beachfront Resort and Spa

4.1/5103 Reviews
The resort was conveniently located on the beach and the decor was nice. We stayed in one of the newly renovated rooms. The bar tenders and most of the staff was very friendly. There was one front desk girl with painted on eyebrows that was not so much. The electrical and equipment/fixtures were another story. The first night was like we were staying in a low budget hotel, and nothing really changed. We arrived late for check in. There was no hot water in any of the facets in our suite and no water pressure in the bathroom sink facet. The lighting fixtures above the nightstands in the bedroom would turn off and on at random times a couple times an hour. The ceiling fan in the bedroom was broken and had a mind of its own. It would speed up and slow down on its own. When it sped up too much the thing would rattle and shake and make noise during the night. The fan would also stop all the way on its own and reverse directions. Then the AC/Cooling system on the roof would turn on and vibrate and hum in our room off and on all night. Not peaceful at all! It was like we were staying in a haunted low budget hotel. When I woke up in the morning (if I slept), my phone was dead even though I had it plugged into the convenient phone charger on the nightstand. I brought these issues up to the front desk the next morning and they sent maintenance staff up to our room. The breaker was tripped on the hot water tank, so that was resolved, and we had no more problems with water temp. The phone charger on the nightstand was not plugged in behind the nightstand and this was fixed. We were told: All of the bathroom sinks had the same facet and no water pressure. There was nothing he could do about it. The lights above the nightstand had some sort of sensor that he could not adjust. After he left, I tried waving my hand around to activate this sensor and the lights never responded to my action but would still turn off and on at random times a couple times an hour. He also said he did not have an answer for the fan or had no control over the noise level of the AC/Cooling system on the roof. We stayed there 4 nights with blinking lights and a haunted fan in the bedroom and had to put up with the noisy AC/Cooling system. Worst (4) nights of sleep in my life. I also received a $75.00 parking citation for parking the golf cart the wrong direction in the parking lot, which was a dead end. I was told I could park there by the front desk, but never told I had to be facing a certain direction. Love the Florida beaches, but will stay elsewhere next time.

We wanted one night in the beach area at the last minute, and this inn was one of very few available on a weekday in the first week of March. We were in unit 404, probably the least expensive among the variety of apartments the inn has scattered on the main drag. It was still over $200 even though it was across the street from the beach, but we wanted to be at least close to the beach, so it was fine. It’s right on the main road, but we are not sensitive to road noise at night. It’s a basic one-bedroom apartment with a dining area and a microwave and mini-fridge and dishware. King bed takes up the whole bedroom but we like a king and the tv in the bedroom is enormous; there’s another in the living area where I believe there’s a pull-out couch. Everything was very clean and seemed freshly painted and pleasant. As we arrived at 6 and checkout was at 10 am we didn’t have time for the pool, but it is sunny there in the morning. That’s the only place there is to sit outside in the vicinity of 404. I believe you can use the beach chairs available on the ocean side but we were busy having a sunset walk. Two downsides for those staying just a night or even two: There’s contact-less checkin supposedly due to Covid; the inn emails you the lock code to use at 4 pm to get into your room. As we got in late in the afternoon no one was at the office (located elsewhere) to answer any questions. We left a message about the confusing TV access but no one called us back (directions for the remotes would have been helpful; it took us quite a while to figure out that the Netflix remote controls the tv). Everything else worked fine. Second, these apartments seem intended for people who are coming for a few days, and would be expected to bring their own napkins, paper towels, morning coffee etc. It’s not set up like a hotel so if you’re a one-nighter someone is going to have to drive down the road in the morning to fetch coffee! Just helps to know in advance.
