My girlfriend and I recently spent 3 nights in the Island bay Resort and it was absolutely wonderful. Our cottage was really quaint and clean, with all the things you could possibly need to enjoy your stay - television, books, a coolbox etc. The grounds were amazing - especially the private beach at the end of the cottages with hammocks...

A friend and I spent 5 nights at this incredible small resort earlier this month, and we both want to start going back every year. It's hard to come up with enough positive adjectives to describe this place. When you turn off the Overseas Highway and into the resort, you feel like you're entering another world; it's heaven on earth.... More

when describing this amazing little resort. My husband I stayed here May 2-6 and had the most relaxing, romantic vacation ever. This place is the perfect size, you feel secluded with just a few neighbors. There was a sense that everyone at the resort was there for the same reason. We rarely saw anyone. When pulling into the driveway you... More

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 good: beautiful rooms, clean, good a/c, private, easy parking, laundry area, if needed, can walk to a restaurant and a DQ and convenience stores for ice cream, liquor, or snacks, great sunsets. 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
