Hi!
My family and I are staying in Rodney Bay for a week and wondering whether to stay at the bay garden hotel or the coco palm resort? It looks like both are about the same distance from the beach? Any advice is appreciated. Thanks!

Coco Palm is actually a little closer to the beach than Bay Gardens. Have you checked out the Bay Gardens Beach Hotel? It's nice and it's right on the beach. It's more expensive than the other two hotels that you are looking at but, last time I checked the rates, it was very reasonably priced for the location and quality of the hotel.
I just realized that my prior post is a little confusing. There are three Bay Gardens properties -- Bay Gardens Hotel, Bay Gardens Inn and Bay Gardens Beach Hotel. As the name implies, the Beach Hotel is the one on the beach. The other two are the ones that are a little further from the beach than Coco Palm
I don't know the Bay Gardens Beach Hotel - but I did get a glimpse of the other Bay Gardens hotels and CoCo Palm - if you don't stay on the beach - I'd stay at CoCo Palm hands down.
Thanks so much john123 and BellaClaire! Appreciate your insights! Since its a large group, we wanted to provide a non beach/lower cost option. Sounds like Coco Palm might be a good non-beach option. Cheers!

You are welcome - I stayed at Bay Gardens - wished I was at Coco Palm.....but...if you choose Bay Gardens - it was pleasant enough - clean, bar, pool......
Let me clarify - I stayed at Bay Garden Inn....went to the pool at Bay Gardens...met up with people at CoCo Palm.....just wanted to clarify my experience....
