As might be expected at this type of holiday trailer park (known as a caravan park in the UK), most guests here are families, and many are looking for a low-budget break. The park has lots of sprawling lawns and sports areas for walks, ball games, and picnics, but maintenance is lacking in some places. Not all of the equipment in the children’s play area is in good condition, and there are some signs of wear and tear in the restaurant. The pools and pool decks are nice enough, but can get crowded in the warmer months. There’s a lot to keep families busy here, though, and the lively buzz creates a warm atmosphere. 

Just inland from the Weymouth Bay seaside, Weymouth Bay Holiday Park is located on a busy main road that leads from the town of Weymouth out to the suburbs. Weymouth’s center is a 10-minute drive from the park, and has a scenic harbor and lots of nice restaurants and shops. It’s also a 10-minute drive to the Weymouth Sea Life Center, a popular local tourist attraction. The closest beach is the one at Bowleaze Cove, around a mile from the park, 10 minutes on foot; it's a pretty pebble beach with a small carnival, fish and chip shop, and cafe. Just across the road from the park's entrance are two grocery stores and a pub that serves good food and has a small garden.  

Weymouth Bay Holiday Park offers either trailer-style caravans or chalets. The caravans range from Standard to Platinum, but all have a small kitchen and bathroom, and a gas fire in the lounge area. Sizes vary from two to four bedrooms, and it’s worth noting that bed linen is not provided, but can be rented from the on-site shop. Chalets come in two different sizes, sleeping either four or six people. Bed linen is included, and the chalets have heating, a TV with a DVD player, a small kitchen with a fridge and microwave, and a small bathroom with either a bath or shower. Pets are welcome in the caravans, but not the chalets. Cleanliness within the caravans is hit or miss -- some are spotless while others are poorly cleaned. Previous guests have complained of mold on the curtains and a smell of cigarette smoke. There are also signs of wear and tear, such as rips in the sofas, in some. Overall, the decor is somewhat dated and run-down, and could use an update. Travel cots can be provided, although, in the Standard Caravan, the cot will only fit in the living area, rather than a bedroom, which can be impractical.

Weymouth Bay Holiday Park has a heated indoor and outdoor swimming pool with a lazy river connecting the two. The pools can get very busy during peak season, so on some occasions, timed swim sessions are enforced to prevent overcrowding. There’s a good range of other activities on offer, though, including mini-golf, air rifle shooting, archery, fencing, a soccer academy, pool tables, an amusement arcade, and an indoor soft play area for young children. Beach games like cricket, rounders, and frisbee are organized free of charge, and, on rainy days, children's activities like sand art are held indoors. There are also kids' club for a range of ages, and live entertainment is held regularly in the evenings; entertainment includes music, comedy shows, and quizzes. Dining options are limited -- there’s a main restaurant, where breakfast, lunch, and dinner are served, and a take-out pizza shop. Free Wi-Fi is available in the restaurant, which also has an outdoor terrace. A footpath links Weymouth Bay to its sister holiday park, Seaview, and guests can use the facilities of both -- although they are very similar.
