About this property

Welcome to Bayview Grand Motel

Bayview Grand Motel is a modestly rated property positioned in Oldsmar, Florida, offering a laid-back, beach-style atmosphere. The motel features newly renovated rooms that guests describe as clean, modern, and comfortable with amenities such as king-size beds, big-screen smart TVs, and kitchenettes in some units. The outdoor space includes a communal BBQ area popular with longer-stay guests, complemented by ample parking suitable for larger vehicles.

The motel provides practical conveniences like free Wi-Fi and complimentary parking but does not have on-site dining, a fitness center, or a swimming pool, making it suitable for travelers focused on exploring the area rather than staying in. Its appeal largely lies in its relaxed vibe enhanced by palm trees and a rustic, coastal charm that several guests appreciated, likening it to a tropical Key West style retreat.

Located just a short drive from key local attractions such as Honeymoon Island State Park and Caladesi Island, the motel serves as a practical base for visitors interested in outdoor activities like hiking, swimming, fishing, and kayaking. Proximity to Tampa Bay and its fishing pier also adds to its appeal for those seeking recreational options nearby.

Guest reviews praise the motel’s updated condition, friendly management, and helpful staff, though the overall experience suits travelers looking for value and a quiet place to stay rather than luxury. The property is also within reasonable reach of three regional airports, including Tampa International Airport, making it convenient for both short-term visitors and those in transition. Altogether, Bayview Grand Motel is a fitting choice for visitors focused on sightseeing, recreation, and easy access to local natural attractions.

Great place to go to if you're in between homes. Manager is great. And everyone that stays there is so nice. Clean and remodeled.

Sensational location minutes from Tampa Bay fishing pier and parks. The renovated rooms are sensational, king size beds, big screen smart TVs and very lush kitchenettes. They have high end rooms down to stand cheaper rooms but you get what you pay for I guess. Staff were very accommodating and helpful. Plenty of parking for bigger trucks and a very beachy vibe to the place with palm trees everywhere. Nice outdoor kitchen bbq area for guests that are here for longer stays (as were booked in on a weekly basis). Free wifi also that was a bonus. Great place, highly recommend. 5stars from us.

Rooms were very updated and clean. They've done a really nice job with the place since the last owner. If you want a very laid back stay in a cool beach style atmosphere, this is the place. We stayed in room 8, a king bed kitchenette room. The BBQ area was cool to meet up with the other guests. Lots of parking and close to Oldsmar beach.

Place was exceptional. Rooms were better than the Hilton I stayed at on the way down from Georgia. Plenty of room to park my truck and boat. Manager was awesome helping me out with my move to oldsmar. Love the key west style laid back atmosphere. I recommend it.

Clean, re-made/re-modeled room (#8); excellent management and responsive support; and friendly fellow guests in a great location -- all made for a most pleasant recent stay. As a longtime Oldsmar resident I've seen the changes in this motel since taken over by new owners and they have been dramatic. Recommended.

Sunsets were amazing. The renovated rooms were even better. The long term weekly packages really helped us out. It’s a work in progress but one worth the wait. Thanks for all your help Matt You were sensational. Love the palm trees

Great place. Got the tropical key west palm tree thing going on. Loved the old wooden boats and antique boat motors. Rooms were very updated and very clean. Big beds, big TVs. Very modern, very beachy. Huge deck with a really nice bbq area where everyone that’s there seems to catch up for a beverage. Very friendly place. I liked it and will definitely be back

Vey cool off the beat place if you're coming to stay in Oldsmar. 15 minutes from the airport and Tampa, 20 minutes to Dunedin or Clearwater beach. Great rooms, great staff, great location. You won't regret trying to get a room. I can understand why there was a waiting list. Best week stay and very laid back environment. Thank you
