To us it was a slice of paradise. Able to snorkel, paddle board and kayak. It was peaceful, and just what we needed. Delana and Anna were so, so nice and sweet. We stayed in the Bahia cottage and space and decorations were perfect for us, online pics dont do it justice. Just 10 cottages, adults only. Location is in between Islamoroda and Key Largo.

Such a cute place! We would definitely stay again. Lots of activities available on the property too - everything from bocce ball to corn hole to paddle boards and kayaks. With under a dozen rooms, it is quiet and private feeling. I wish we had had longer than our 2 nights there because the sunset views are amazing. The beach area is really the best aspect of the entire place! We loved it. But definitely wear bug spray - we both got may bites in our short time there. Definitely put this at the top of your list!

Island Bay Resort was even better than we had anticatiped. The resort is beautifully maintained. Our cottage was uniquely decorated, very clean and very comfortable.

We loved the intimacy and peacefulness of this small resort. Because there are only 10 cottages, and no additional guests are allowed, it is never crowded or noisy. Just what we were looking for!

The staff was extremely friendly and helpful. We spoke with Daniel, the owner a couple of times and could tell he and the staff work hard to maintain the beauty of the resort.

We loved being able to use the kayaks and paddleboards without having to rent them. The beach view is lovely and the water is crystal clear.

We truly enjoyed every minute of our stay!

Island Bay is the perfect tropical getaway. It only has 10 rooms, but they are spectacular cottages. The grounds and indoor decor are impeccable. The sunsets are unmatched. The adults-only, gated property was peaceful, and a joy to kick back in. Also, plenty of opportunity to fish, snorkel, or kayak.

Although I did not see any bugs, I have over 50 bug bites all over my body.

Very pretty, cottage/chalet-style rooms with nearby gated parking, immaculate condition, beautiful beach area with kayaks & paddle boards. Staff are super-friendly!
Only downside is the sandflies, the no-see-ums were brutal – even in November! Each cottage has its own supply outside the door, but bring as many insect repellants as you can, and itch relief.
Besides that, ask for the gate code in advance as you need to get your car inside to check-in at the office.

Tropical and beautifully lit at night. My husband caught fish off the dock and we enjoyed relaxing on their beach, which was raked daily with chairs and umbrellas provided.

This place was absolute paradise. From the moment you enter the gate to the second you leave, it is an absolute dream. It’s a tropical paradise but even better because it’s so small and so intimate. The beach is quiet and never too busy. The cottages are absolutely adorable and meticulously clean. The bay is AMAZING. We had coffee on our porch every morning with the friendly little lizards. We kayaked and saw green iguanas in the mangroves. We fed the snappers off of the dock. Our last day at the resort, we saw 2 large sting rays and a 7ft nurse shark swim into the shallow area and under the dock. We will be back again and again. Absolutely amazing and the owner is the sweetest.

The property was beautiful with lots of lush tropical plants. The downside was that the interior of our unit was palpably moist. The efficiency aspect of the unit enabled us to eat breakfast each morning before heading out. The “beach” on the property was well maintained and provided gorgeous views of the water. Use care with the paddleboat - the rudder was not working correctly and we had to go in circles to get it back on land.

Lovely oasis just outside key largo. It’s a strip of land where there’s 10 individual bungalows and ours was beautifully furnished. The grounds are well lit & the strip leads down to private access to a beach / marina which provides paddle boards / canoes & pedaloes. There’s hardly any access to beach / marina in key largo or around & all properties section off their own portion of the water. Bed very comfy & very relaxing. Hosts very friendly too. Thoroughly recommended.

WOW !

I don't think I ever titled a review \"WOW.\" But it's finally time. This remarkable little place is a cultivated and designed environment of paradise. Behind a security gate (for which guests are given the code), is a row of adorable casitas. Each is wonderfully landscaped, and beautifully appointed. They sit along a stone paved alley that leads down to a private beach on the Bayside. All sorts of little places are available outdoors to relax, read, listen to small fountains, look out of the water, and watch the sunset. Included are kayaks, a paddle boat, and a beautiful little dock with Adirondack chairs to watch the sunset. At night the stony drive illuminated with fairy lights and electric torch lights. It is nothing short of otherworldly. The caretakers of this small property are so friendly, approachable and devoted to the needs of guests and the creative cultivation of the property (eg every morning they comb the beach sand like a Zen garden). The smallest of amenities are provided like dehumidifier in the room, insect repellent, and each little casita has a small kitchen. Truly one of the most unique, beautiful and relaxing, small resort properties in South Florida.

Outstanding property! Staff extremely attentive and professional. Grounds are meticulously kept, calm, beautiful without the crowds and busyness. Well appointed room that is comfortable with the smallest touches that made the stay unique. Will definitely be back- no reason to stay anywhere else!

My wife and I just spent our anniversary here and highly recommended the Island Bay Resort! Sue was such an awesome and thoughtful host and helped make our stay here wonderful! Pictures and words cannot do this place justice and accurately describe what a gorgeous and peaceful property this is! You will just have to go and see for yourself!!

This place was exactly what I was looking for. Quiet and peaceful. The beach was kept very clean and the paddle boards and Kayaks were there for our use at no extra charge. The sunsets at night were spectacular. As soon as you walk out of your little cottage, you’re greeted by water. Steve and Sue couldn’t have been better hosts. They were very helpful in answering any questions I had. If you’re looking for peace of mind and tranquility, this is the place for you. I will definitely be staying here again.

Quiet and tidy boutique property. Great little beach on property, across A1A is a convenience/gas store. Walking distance is a retail center with WinnDixie. Rooms are essentially individual cottage with kitchenette, walk in shower, TV and little front porch. Dock space for a boat, all water amenities and protected lagoon for floating. Tavernier is very quiet and an easy drive south to Islamorada and all the shoppping and dining. Friendly staff and good place to stay for extended time as well

What a wonderful, little tucked away gem!! We had such a great time here, the property is spotless and beautiful, the rooms were perfect in size and beautifully decorated, and the couple who run the property make you feel so welcome and like your family. We rarely left the property, it was so relaxing to sit on the beach, or take the kayaks or paddle boards out into the water, we even saw, sharks and manatees and got to swim with them right at the resort. We will definitely go back!

Island Bay is small quaint resort where the owners make you feel like you’re family from the moment you check in. It’s gated so we felt safe. You are surrounded by tree cover and plant life which makes it quiet even though it’s off the main road. The decor is perfect for the location. We stayed for our honeymoon and we were welcomed with a bottle of champagne in the room which was a nice touch! The private beach is very clean and kept up with; the chairs on the beach are comfortable. There are plenty of activities (kayaking, bocce, cornhole, etc.) for guests as well. The dock also has some Adirondack chairs which is perfect to watch the sunset over the water. We had a great stay and would absolutely stay here again!
