Bay House Review

This is an intimate dining room linked with a family-owned hotel set in a garden on a hillside, a 10-minute walk uphill from the beach at Dickenson Bay. Surrounded by lattices and potted plants, it is an open-sided room with sweeping views of the jagged coastline. Lunch consists of freshly made salads, stuffed baguette sandwiches, and grills. The kitchen's culinary flair is more obvious at nighttime, when meals might begin with a salad of baby shrimp with grapefruit segments and truffle oil, or fresh chicken livers flambéed with brandy. Main dinner courses feature grilled fish, and fresh local lobster that's either grilled and served with lime-and-garlic sauce or prepared thermidor style. Steaks are served in a light soy sauce with braised Chinese cabbage. For vegetarians, there's a platter piled high with grilled Provençal-style vegetables.

About Our System

Frommer's ranks every hotel, restaurant, attraction, shop, and nightlife establishment it reviews for quality, value, service, amenities, and special features using a star-rating scale, an expression of the strong compare-and-contrast opinions that are a brand hallmark.

Other ratings provide stars based primarily on price and amenities; the Frommer's star rating is meant to quantify the kind of intangible, experiential elements that help travelers make informed decisions.

The "baseline" recommendation is zero stars--every hotel, restaurant, attraction, shop, and nightlife establishment that Frommer's chooses to review is recommended; otherwise, we simply wouldn't include it.
