"Over-priced and unfriendly staff"

3.0

We have just returned from a 6 night stay at this over-priced and unfriendly “resort”. Firstly, it is not a resort, it is a selection of tiny cottages, chargeable laundry facilities and some sun loungers and hammocks. Secondly, the hotel states it doesn’t allow children. However, they had no issues with children running around during the night and during the day from a nearby villa. Additionally, on our arrival we asked if we could have a late check out as our flight was at 9pm. We were told yes that’s no problem as they had no bookings for our cottage until the day after we were leaving. However, the most unfriendly and unhelpful member of staff told us at 12.50pm we had to vacate the cottage by 1pm as they had taken a booking. Had we been made aware we could have planned our day differently, but to be given 10 minutes notice to leave was totally unacceptable. The staff member had no interest in our well-being, only in their own profiteering. Would I recommend this hotel? Certainly not, there’s much nicer resorts in the area with more amicable staff who are interested in making sure your holiday is a pleasant one. One final point, there’s nobody on-site after 6pm and they don’t respond to any emails if you require assistance, just like we did when there were lizards in the room which additionally has an unbearable eggy smell.

"Not your typical resort"

10.0

No restaurant, no free breakfast, no pool or hot tub, no noisy kids running around……if this sounds ideal, the Island Bay is the place for you. Quaint cottages with private porches, private beach with lots of comfy chairs and hammocks, kayaks, SUPs, and beautiful sunsets. Away from tourist congestion but only a short drive to all things Keys. Just what we needed to recharge and refresh!

"BRAVO Island Bay!"

10.0

Island Bay Resort was a terrific place to stay. The setting is beautiful; the team is friendly and could not be more welcoming; the venue is loaded with old Florida charm. Our room was pleasant and equipped with everything imaginable. We had a nice refrigerator, a two-burner cooktop and silverware, plates and cooking gear. It was easy to shop for breakfast and lunch food and enjoy it on our own patio. Also, the bathroom was well-equipped; the amenities were all high-end. We did spend some time sitting along the waterfront. Island Bay has comfortable lounge chairs all shaded with umbrellas. Ther is also a hammock. We would definitely go back to Island Bay.

"Great resort on the beach"

8.0

My wife and I stayed here for a couple of days and what a great decision. The resort was very good about keeping you up to date prior to check-in and sending you the access code prior to arrival. The check in process went great and although our room wasn't ready upon arrival she made very sure it was completed as soon as possible. The suite was very roomy, clean, and provided everything you may need. The private beach had everything for a good time on the water and also very quiet. Although expensive were really enjoyed our stay here and will highly recommend.

"Amazing stay on a private, quiet, beach"

10.0

while starting the new year in Key Largo and were very happy with the experience. The whole property is well configured, clean, and functional. Everything seemed very new and well maintained. The check in process was very easy and smooth, and we appreciated how well equipped both the cottage was, as well as the private beach area. Being able to bring our own food and cook or do a grill out was simply perfect, and we really enjoyed the opportunity for kayaking. If I had only one minor criticism, it was that the housekeeping service seemed to be performed very late in the day (~4pm on one day) - which also seemed odd given there are not many cottages and the daily service is fairly minimal. Still, this wasn't enough to give less than 5 stars for a great experience! Highly recommend.
