Very nice motel centrally located in Tobermory. Easy access to the main tourist area. Room was spacious and well equipped. My favourite amenity was the private-access beach across the street; it was set up nicely and had a beautiful view of the bay.

Great location and service was great! Good communication and very thorough booklet available in the room. The King size bed was comfortable and the room was very clean with good quality towels. The motel does have a rustic feel which is fitting for the town you are visiting. Again, very clean and quiet location.

We really enjoyed our stay at the Blue Bay Inn and everything this little slice of heaven has to offer. We love the new beach area which is a great place for a beautiful, quiet sunset. We also appreciated the private back patio that offers a pleasant place to enjoy carryout from the nearby restaurants.
There are so many thoughtful touches to the place, from the bottled water to the yoga mats—which I used every morning! Our room was very comfortable and the location right on the harbor puts you right in the middle of everything.

Recently completed a month-long motorcycle journey. This hotel was included in our trip, and it was one of my favorites along our route from Arizona to New Hampshire back to Arizona each room seem to show a pride of ownership.

The Blue Bay Motel is clean, quiet and in a prime location in Tobermory. The staff is friendly and helpful. The Blue Bay is steps away from restaurants and shops and about a five minute walk to the ferry. The perfect place to regenerate the mind and the soul.

Blue Bay Motel has been a lovely short stay, staff were welcoming to and kind to my service dog and helped us feel right as home. Parking was also easy to access. I will definitely be back again!

Stayed one night, August 2025 with a family of four traveling to Manitoulin. Very nice motel in the heart of Tobermory, overlooking the harbour and ferry, but quite pricey. Nice decor in the rooms and well maintained.

I rarely write reviews, but my experience with Amanjot at this hotel absolutely deserves recognition. From the moment I arrived, she went above and beyond in every possible way. She didn’t just provide service – she provided genuine care.
What impressed me the most was her attentiveness and dedication. No matter how small my request was, Amanjot handled it with patience, kindness, and professionalism. She anticipated needs before I even mentioned them, solved problems instantly, and always greeted me with a warm smile that made me feel valued as a guest.
It is very rare to meet someone in hospitality who truly makes you feel like family, and Amanjot did exactly that. Her passion for guest satisfaction shows in everything she does, and it turned what could have been an ordinary stay into something unforgettable.
I sincerely believe that Amanjot is an exceptional asset to this hotel. She has the rare ability to elevate the entire guest experience singlehandedly, and I have no doubt she is ready for even greater responsibilities. I strongly recommend that her hard work and dedication be recognized at the highest level—she truly deserves a promotion.
Thank you, Amanjot, for making my stay so wonderful.

This is a good motel for the area. The rooms, while showing their age, are thoughtfully appointed with things like coffee maker, hair dryer, fridge, popcorn, smart TV, etc. Beds are comfortable and the room was clean. While it's quiet outside at night, you do hear the upstairs occupants' steps and movements quite clearly in the 1st floor rooms. My "big" concern was that there is no deadbolt on the doors and only a flimsy chain in addition to the knob lock.

Glad that my husband and I chose to stay here. The room cleanliness exceeded my expectation and basic convenience are thoughtfully provided like the tea/coffee maker, mini fridge, microwave and ice maker. The bed is so comfortable and the room, spacious. It can get really hot and humid during the summer months but thankfully, ceiling and standing fans are provided in all rooms. Checking in and out was fuss free and efficient. When we arrived, our room was ready with the fans switched on to cool off the summer heat. That was really thoughtful. We had a pleasant stay and will return to Blue Bay if we visit Tobermory again.

We stayed at the Blue Bay Motel for 3 days.
The location is awesome. Its right downtown, looks over the water. Walking distance from restaurants, shopping, Blue Heron cruises etc. Very quiet, sufficient parking when we visited.
Room was spacious, very clean, great bathroom sink. Enjoyed the fan in the room as well as the standing fan on warm nights. Our daughter loved the popcorn and the chocolates left as compliments. Used the room fridge the whole time and appreciated the access to microwave.
Couple observations: Walls are thin, you can hear your neighbours, toilet is small, spare bed was quite creaky, windows are quite old and doesnt seal off fully, not enough space for hanging jackets and towels. Perhaps they could add a few more hooks/ hanging rods. The building could use a face lift to not give the impression of an old place. The rooms actually are quite nice.
Overall pleased and would return.
