The Hyatt Regency Chesapeake Bay Golf Resort, Spa and Marina offers a luxurious escape on Maryland’s Eastern Shore. This expansive resort boasts a variety of amenities, making it an ideal destination for families, couples, and business travelers alike. As a Category 4 Hyatt property, it provides excellent value for World of Hyatt points redemptions, especially considering the potential use of free night certificates. Cash rates can fluctuate, making points redemptions particularly attractive during peak seasons. While a club lounge is no longer available, the resort compensates with numerous other perks.
Rooms range from standard rooms with balconettes to spacious suites with full balconies offering stunning water views. The majority of rooms provide at least a small outdoor space, though a full balcony is recommended for those seeking to maximize the scenic views. Room amenities include comfortable beds, modern furnishings, and mini-fridges. Bathrooms, while functional, may appear somewhat dated in certain rooms. A notable advantage is the use of large, refillable toiletry bottles, a welcome change from single-use plastics.
A daily resort fee covers amenities such as self-parking, access to the fitness center, and various recreational activities including miniature golf, frisbee golf, and tennis. While the resort fee might seem like an added expense, it encompasses activities that would typically incur separate charges. Free self-parking is available, with a paid valet option for those desiring closer proximity to the main entrance. The resort is pet-friendly, welcoming dogs of all sizes for a fee, a significant benefit for travelers with furry companions.
The on-site spa provides a tranquil environment for relaxation and rejuvenation. Treatments range from massages to facials, and the facilities include a sauna and relaxation room. Three pools cater to different preferences, including an indoor pool, a children’s pool with a waterslide, and an infinity pool with breathtaking views of the Choptank River. An adults-only hot tub offers a secluded space for relaxation. While there isn’t a designated adults-only pool, a separate lounge area near the infinity pool provides a quieter atmosphere.
Dining options abound at the Hyatt Regency Chesapeake Bay. Water’s Edge serves breakfast, lunch, and dinner, while Michener’s Library offers a more casual setting with live entertainment in the evenings. Dockside, a poolside bar and grill, provides convenient grab-and-go options. The Eagle’s Nest Clubhouse and Grill caters to golfers, and the Bayside General Store offers Starbucks coffee and quick bites.

The Hyatt Regency Chesapeake Bay also caters to families with a dedicated kids’ club. Housekeeping services are available daily upon request, ensuring a clean and comfortable stay. The resort’s staff consistently receives praise for their friendly and attentive service, often going above and beyond to meet guest needs. The convenient location across from a Walmart provides easy access to necessities.
Located a short drive from major cities like Washington, D.C., and Baltimore, the Hyatt Regency Chesapeake Bay offers a convenient escape. The resort’s proximity to three major airports (DCA, IAD, BWI) makes it accessible to travelers from further afield. While the nearby town of Cambridge may not offer significant attractions, the resort itself provides a wealth of activities and a serene environment.

While swimming in the Choptank River is not recommended due to jellyfish, the resort’s pools provide ample opportunities for cooling off and enjoying the water views. The natural beauty of the surrounding area, with frequent sightings of wildlife, adds to the tranquil atmosphere.
