Nice stay. Seemed cleanly. Maybe minimally run down in a few areas from age but nice overall. Front desk rep was extremely friendly, accomodating, and kind. My apologies for not catching her name. Tall African American woman with long dark hair and butterly clips. So sweet!

5.0 / 10.0

Wonderful stay. Great location to visit cedar point. We got rained out, so we were able to go back to the hotel and hit the waterpark. The resort isnt huge, which made it really nice for the little legs in our group and the adults who had been walking all day really appreciated it too. The log ride was a pleasant surprise for our teenager who rode it multiple times. Their resort activities are more heavily geared towards little ones and our daughter loved the craft room, story time, and theming throughout the resort. All the staff from checkin thru checkout were friendly and positive. From the ice cream guy, to the craft lady all of our interactions were pleasant and they made you feel very welcome.

3.0 / 10.0

The staff was very nice! The overall cleanliness of the hotel and Waterpark was good. But the rooms are a little on the small side and the beds were not comfy at all.

Loved the waterpark!! Environment felt like I was on vacation. Putt putt was also fun! Great place to stay with kids! Starbucks in the hotel too was a huge bonus!

The pool was amazing. The slides and activities there were suited for all ages. The activities were more for younger children and families.

The hotel checked anothe giest into my room prior to my arrival. It then took then a few hours to “figure it out”. Definitely will not stay here again.

4.0 / 10.0

The family suite upgrade was worth the money, however the mattress and pillows were horrible. Flat, small and not enough of them. The room was clean, some missing paint in some areas, but to be expected in a family style room. More seating in the suite would make sense instead of a table with two chairs. Front desk service was very slow, check in was 10-15 minutes. However lots to do for the kids with the shows, games and of course the waterpark. Overall we enjoyed our stay.

5.0 / 10.0

I went to join an outing with my son’s team and it’s a large and sprawling property. I was disappointed the hot tub and outer pool were shut down and Quaker Steak was replaced by a BBQ place. Beyond that, what I expected and happy :)

1.0 / 10.0

So disappointed in this Hotel. Beds are old and worn out but not only that when we arrived we tried to take a shower and the shower was dirty and clogged. They had to call a plumber didn’t offer to move us rooms. After several hours of waiting I called back down asked to be moved to another room and was told that they would move us and provide us with a credit. Never received the credit.

8.0 / 10.0

Clean and comfortable. Polite staff. Love the crafts room. Elevators very small and in constant use by housekeeping. Makes it hard to move between floors if you have a stroller, wheelchair, or luggage cart. Check-in was a mess. Waited in line for 30 min. Pool was well guarded. Hot tub was broken.

The Hottub was completely drained which is the only really adult thing to do there the box spring in our room had rips in it and our bedding was wet.

4.0 / 10.0

Overall nice place near Cedar Point with fun water park HOWEVER the hot tub was not working the 3 days we stayed & that was the main draw for the parents. No hot tub No outdoor loungers because the hot tub area was closed for maintenance. Very disappointing

4.0 / 10.0

Check in took a while. Our initial room was on the first floor with a smoking area 5 ft outside our window. They had us move to another room with no further issues. The staff that do crafts and work with the kids are great and are always fun and enthusiastic with the kids.

8.0 / 10.0

Great property especially if you have young kids, the water park closes kind of early 8pm witch suprised us since check in isnt until 4pm but it was still nice. My husband fished and kids swam all in all it was a great stay. It sucked there is no included breakfast, you have to pay 60$ there should have been a basic option as much as you pay to stay, but rooms were clean and nice and early entry was a plus with our gold passes for cedar point! I would definitely stay again and highly reccomend for families with small kids!

We stayed at Castaway Bay this weekend with our one year old. Our bathroom had mold on the ceiling and in the shower. The toddler water park amenities (the only amenities meant for infants and toddlers) were closed for two of the three hours the first night. Then, the next morning the water park was closed for the first hour of opening. Understanding, the reasons for closure were not necessarily the hotels fault, it was still extremely upsetting for our family who was only there for a short period of time and paid. We visited the front desk in hopes that the hotel would refund at least the water park amount or give us a voucher for another day since we did not get to use the amenities. Cas at the front desk was extremely unkind and refused to help us receive any sort of support due to the water park closures. Instead, she asked “why didn’t you take your son into the wave pool?” — in response I mentioned once again that my son was one years old. I have never had a more poor experience at a hotel especially one that is meant to bring joy to families and children.

8.0 / 10.0

Great location.

10.0 / 10.0

Loved the water park, and availability of dining options and arcade. The water in the park was warm, and the amount of lifeguards seemed adequate. In-room amenities were a bit lacking (had to call room service to get an iron and ironing board) and check in was fairly slow, although not necessarily the staff’s fault. No breakfast included was also a bit of a letdown. These hotel mini fridges are always so tiny, and the TVs are pretty old at this point. Perhaps at least a bluetooth / screen sharing option of some kind would be nice if not a full upgrade. Not that we couldn’t make do with what we brought so not a serious issue. All in all had a great stay, no real issues. View was nice, check-out was easy, no issues with keycards. Required $50 deposit which was promptly returned after checkout. Would recommend, ***1/2

It was very enjoyable.

6.0 / 10.0

The loby and activities were fun and everything looked nice. The room had a moldy musty urine smell. I asked to change rooms they gave me a hard time as the front desk and house keeper took it personal. Most hotels just change your room no questions asked. The housekeeper "investigated" my claims and said it smells fine. I feel like the staff can be nose blind to the smell due to working there all day. After pushing for a different room, they did change my room and the 2nd room seemed better. It still had a slight smell. We put our bags down and enjoyed the golf and arcade which was very nice, the pizza was good! When it was time for bed, we discovered what the smell was coming from. There is mold in the air conditioning units (big chunks of mold), everything was damp, the beds were cold and damp and there was fur growing out of the vents in the shower. This place has a moisture problem which is making it smell. I only stayed 1 night out of my 2 night stay. I booked with Expedia and was unable to get my money back for the other night. This was over $300 an night. The loby was nice, the rooms were not the best. Also the TV did not work and there were flies and spiders in the room.

6.0 / 10.0

Very good service at the front desk. Room and hotel is extremely clean. My only dislike is that mattress on both beds in our room were worn out well beyond their service life - very hard, uneven and lumpy.

5.0 / 10.0

The waterpark offered a wonderful experience for my family. However, the room was less than I expected. The floors were linoleum and were sticky in the bathroom. It was obvious that it had not been thoroughly cleaned as food crumbs lined the base of the headboard, corners of the room revealed additional crumbs, dirt, and even cobwebs. Also, the microwave didn't work which proved inconvenient. Staff did offer to "swap it out" so that we could use it prior to departure. However, we were unable to stay due to time constraints. The view was spectacular! Linens were all fresh and clean.

1.0 / 10.0

Check-in took an hour (40 minutes in line and 20 at the counter). This place is not clean-like dirty floors, bugs, etc. The water park is super small and the hot tub and outdoor pool were out of order. I ordered a toasted bagel at breakfast and it was stale and not toasted (though she said she toasted it twice). The waterpark closed at 8 even though the website said 10. It might be okay for those with small kids looking for a cheap place to stay. Not at all what I was looking for with teens.

Room was definitely not what was expected for the price. The floors felt dirty when walking barefoot around the room, the bathroom floor was dirty, the shower was gritty when standing in the shower. The whole room felt damp and had a musty odor like mold. My children and I all woke up stuffy noses and swollen eyes from the mold. Will not spend that much money to stay there again. VERY disappointed!!

4.0 / 10.0

It was a nice stay. Check in wasn’t too long, and they were very informative. Arcade was decent, water park was enjoyable, food was decent as well. I did expect the pizza to be better for the price. Room wasn’t as clean as expected. Tub was dirty when we got in room and stains on sheet. I would recommend bringing your own blankets and pillows. But over all we enjoyed our stay very much. There was a lot for the kids to do with shows and dance parties and craft areas. And it was fun to go on an “adventure” around the building and find new items each time.

8.0 / 10.0

The only complaint I have about this property is the lack of draws in the room and the towel racks was in the shower. It should been outside the shower along the walls. We had no where to hang our towels after we bathed.
