The Blue Bay Inn is a quaint Hotel and very well situated with surrounding restaurants within walking distances. The rooms are spacious, but as well as the Hallways, they need updating. Their is a smell of mustiness as soon as you step out of the elevator to walk to your room. The bathrooms also need to be updated, and definitely better towels would be a plus. The staff is overall helpful, but didn’t seem to friendly. The Housekeeping was not up to par. Sometimes our bed was not made, or if it made it looked like a teenager did it in a hurry. It is all in the details.

Perfectly placed at Atlantic Highlands on the Jersey Shore, this boutique hotel is small and friendly and allows you to easily access nearby towns, the beach, New York by ferry or just enjoy the local atmosphere. Good restaurants and bars nearby including the excellent Copper Canyon.
