Our room was located within walking distance of both restaurants. Our waiter at the main one was great, very personable and efficient. We were only there 1 night but want to go back again for a long weekend. Definitely recommend the Bluefin Bay!

The service at the Grill was utterly chaotic, with items delivered out of order or not at all until servers (there were several, and it was never clear whether anyone was in charge) were reminded. The food at the Grill was unremarkable at best. Service, food, and prices were much better at the bakery.

For a “spa” resort it was nice. Only downside is there was a family with young kids…no problem. However certain areas were left unmonitored and the actual PARENTS werent being considerate of where they were at. Potentially should be a certain age + resort being that its a “spa” resort. Example - in the outdoor pool - parent throwing a football and hitting random guests (us) in the head without apologizing…and then proceeded to throw in the air sinkable toys by the dozen…resulting in splashing and guests having to leave the area. No staff to address in the area. Lock doors also sometimes didnt work, maintenance maybe a bit behind.

This hotel was clean and beautiful. My son said it felt like we were at home. The bathroom was one of the best I’ve ever had in a hotel. I enjoyed every moment of this. I would definitely go again.

Two night minimum is frustrating when you’re paying $500 a night. I think this place is way too expensive for what you actually get. We were in a 2 bedroom suite. Had to take two flights of stairs to get to the unit, then once inside the unit, there is an immediate large flight of stairs again. When we go to the top floor, the place is very small and broken up. One bedroom had a coffee pot and fridge, the other bedroom had a TV. Both bedroom should have a TV. Bathroom was very small, but tub was VERY large. Toilet was so close to the door! Tub took up way too much room. I think for the cost of these units, they should be set up better or lower the price! I’ve stayed in many, many condos/all inclusive resorts and paid less than what it cost to stay here. Won’t be staying here again.

Many steps to a gorgeous view

We booked a room (41B) on the third floor, up 32 steps from the parking lot. The price was right, and the view of the lake was fabulous. The last flight of stairs -- inside the building -- was very narrow, and the entryway needed a good sweeping. The room itself was clean.

We had a wonderful stay at Bluefin. The staff was fabulous and location perfect. However, when we approached our condo we noticed that the trim on the buildings and railing needed painting. Not a favorable first impression on a 5 star resort.

We were staying for my nieces wedding. I had requested an early check-in earlier in the week to allow my son, whom has special needs and myself to change our clothes and get ready for the wedding. We enjoyed a nice lunch at the bluefin grill. Great food and service. We then went to guest services to check on our room The gentleman said he would check on it and call me when it was ready. We waited in our vehicle for about an hour. We then went back inside guest services to wait. We observed others being checked in early. The gentleman that I'd spoken with before said nothing to us. As the wedding time aproached. I went to a different person and my room was ready. I was very upset by this time. How long had our room been available with no one alerting us? We were extremely rushed to get ready for the wedding by this time. Later that night, we discovered that most tv channels did not work and some quit working while watching. We were also disappointed that the sauna was broken in the pool house. It was a very disjointed stay. We would look elsewhere in the area next visit up. A special mention though for a gentleman whom teaches kayaking there. I believe his name was Sean super nice and made my son happy and welcome.

I likely should have known “studio” meant sofa hideabed. So uncomfortable, the 3 cushion sections did not align, and we saw no way to move them. Deep depressions at shoulder level. Room had no blankets: I requested two and received one. Then realized we had no pillows. Breaking point. We headed back to Duluth by late afternoon. I’m sure many rooms are fine, and view from our balcony was great. Strongly recommend asking to see the room at checkin, reserving right to ask to see another room.
