Ibis Bay Resort - A 1956 beachfront resort with private beach, water sports, and fresh seafood dining

Located against the salt ponds of Key West's New Town, this 3-star Key West hotel features cottage-like rooms with high-pitched tin roofs. The Ibis Bay Resort property includes a central swimming pool, private beach with swimming platform, and water sport rentals including kayaks, stand-up paddleboards, and jet skis. The Stoned Crab, an open-air dockside restaurant, receives fresh seafood daily from contracted fishing boats and serves breakfast items like omelets and huevos rancheros. Guest rooms feature premium bedding, air conditioning, free WiFi, and refrigerators designed like old-school iceboxes. The grounds house several wildlife species in penned habitats, including tortoises, macaws, and iguanas. A pastel yellow cottage with blue wooden ceiling beams serves as the lobby, concierge, and gift shop. The property sits 3 miles from Key West International Airport, with major attractions like Duval Street and the Ernest Hemingway Home located 3.3 miles away. A complimentary transfer service operates to the city center.

Charming Room Setup

My room had a charming setup with vintage decor that truly captured the Key West vibe. The sliding doors opened to my own little seating area with a hammock, making it a cozy retreat to unwind after a day of exploring.

Fresh Seafood Delights

I was pleasantly surprised by the fresh seafood offered at the on-site restaurant. The catch of the day was prepared to perfection, and watching the sharks get fed from the dock while dining was an lovely experience!

Relaxing Poolside

The pool area was a delight, with hammocks scattered around and bar service that made lounging feel luxurious. I spent hours enjoying the sun with a cold drink in hand, surrounded by beautiful views.

7.6/10

The hotel provides a nice stay just outside of town, offering free parking and a shuttle service that makes it easy to explore. The rooms are cozy and clean, though some might find the proximity to the wildlife exhibits a little unsettling. Dining options on-site feature a fantastic seafood restaurant, but the breakfast could use more variety. Overall, it's a great option for families looking for a fun yet affordable getaway.

Rooms

My room was tidy and comfortable, though I noticed some humidity in the air. It was a bit cramped, but that didn’t detract too much from the experience. I would rate the rooms a solid 7.

Service

8.0

The staff were quite helpful, especially when I had to switch rooms due to an AC issue. They were quick to respond and really did their best to make my stay enjoyable. I’d give the service a rating of 8.

Location

8.0

The hotel is located a little away from the main attractions but offers a free shuttle that made accessing downtown a breeze. It's a good balance of tranquility and convenience, so I rate location an 8.

Dining

7.0

The seafood restaurant on-site had amazing fresh dishes, but the breakfast was the same each day, which was slightly underwhelming for me. Overall, I’d give dining a 7.

Facilities

8.0

The pool area was well-kept and a great spot to relax. I enjoyed spending time there, though I wish there were more activities available. I’d rate the facilities an 8.
