My wife and I Just returned from 5 wonderful and enjoyable days at this resort. Our cottage, #2, and the grounds are beautifully conceived and maintained to perfection. While the grounds are small, whatever you could reasonably desire is there. Mike and Carol make it happen! Looking for the perfect, beautiful, intimate resort? The Island Bay Resort in Tavernier is... More

My wife and I have just returned from the Florida Keys. We stayed at Island Bay for 10 nights out of 13 in America and absolutely loved this peaceful and beautifully kept place. Mike and Carol are very friendly and completely non intrusive but are always willing to share their recommendations on activities, restaurants and days out in the Keys.... More

My husband and I just got back from a trip to Key Largo and we fell in love with this resort. We will definitely be staying here on our next trip. You can tell that Mike and Carol (the owners) love this beautiful place and want to share it with you. When we first checked in Mike took the time... More

The best sunset location you could wish for. Sit on your own private beach and watch the sun go down with a glass of wine in you hand - maximum of 20 people on the beach. Accommodation excellent - lots of nice little touches. Music was playing when we walked into the room, snorkelling masks available to borrow. Cooking facilities... More

My fiance and I needed a warm, relaxing getaway from cold New England this past January. The Island Bay Resort was exactly what we were looking for. Clean, affordable, quiet and well-maintained... all the details are thought of for you so you can focus on doing nothing or exploring the Keys from here. We did a day trip to Key... More

The bad: lots of road noise outside the cottages, the beach/water is grassy (not the motel's fault) but don't expect a beach like in Clearwater, the grills... More

It took seven years, but we made it back here. It felt like coming home! Mike and Carol are great hosts. Their attention to detail throughout the property is amazing. we loved snorkeling around the beach, relaxing in the cabana, and watching the beautiful sunsets in the evening. We'll be back here again!

We could not have chosen a better place to stay in the Florida Keys! This resort lived up to all of our expectations. The owners have made this a perfect oasis to relax in. I had a lot of questions about different fish I saw and about nearby activities. They answered all of my questions with enthusiasm. Carol gave us... More

My wife and I just completed our second stay at the IBR, this time with our two kids (ages 10 and 6) and it was an all-around perfect stay. We booked the 2BR option (room #9 Coral Reef and #10 Key Largo join together) and it was perfect for us and the kids as we each had our own space,... More
