Rooms were ok. Bath was neat . Views with hammock over the sand beside the ocean.. All this z attached to each room were really good. Rooms really need door mats. Internal Lighting could hv been better Water was not very warm for shower. Day time Shark feeding and watching turtles being fed was great Vegetarian options on the restaurant were less.

⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Absolutely Peaceful Oceanfront Getaway Staying at Ibis Bay Beach Resort was an amazing experience. The front ocean view was stunning—waking up to the sound of the waves and watching birds right outside was truly peaceful and relaxing. It’s the perfect place to unwind and enjoy nature. The resort itself is quiet, calm, and very well kept, making it ideal for a stress-free stay. One of the best parts is the convenience of great restaurants right in front of the resort, so you can enjoy excellent food without needing to travel far. If you’re looking for a tranquil beachfront escape with beautiful views, relaxing surroundings, and easy access to dining, Ibis Bay Beach Resort is a fantastic choice. I would absolutely stay here again!

Celebrated my 3 year anniversary at this resort and had the best time. We rented bikes here which was only $18 for 24 hours. There is a private beach, turtles, parrots, a really nice pool. The restaurant stoned crab was really good, and if you stay here you can get free fish dip from the restaurant when you get two entrees. I recommend the lobster mac and cheese. You can also do shark feeding. The free breakfast was also really good here!

Ibis Bay Beach Hotel – Wonderful Stay in Key West foe around 200$ per night. I had a fantastic experience at Ibis Bay Beach Hotel in Key West. The resort could use a few small additions like an oven, paper towels, and hand soap, but honestly, these were minor details compared to the overall experience. Breakfast is too good. The hammock and back view are absolutely amazing, offering the perfect spot to relax and enjoy the serene surroundings. Overall, my stay was very enjoyable, and I would highly recommend this hotel to anyone visiting Key West.

From the moment we arrived at Ibis Bay Beach Resort, we knew we were in for something special! The vibrant, retro-style beachfront location was exactly what we were hoping for — just steps from the water with stunning views every morning. The staff went above and beyond to make sure our stay was comfortable, welcoming us with genuine warmth and helpful local tips.

It’s a very nice hotel, especially for families with children. The place looks great; it’s located close to a road, but that didn’t bother us. The pool is really fun, and the staff are friendly and helpful. A small piece of advice for the hotel: pay a bit more attention to the small details; it could be just a little tidier. The atmosphere is excellent, and it feels great to return to the resort after a busy day. The restaurant prices are on the higher side, it’s not the most affordable option, but the quality of the food is excellent!

Beautiful grounds with wildlife, pool, restaurants and recreation. There is a trolley route which can get you into the old town area. The hotel is near hwy 1 and A1A. Sandy beach like area on an intercostal/bay waterfront. Is quite the hike into old town on foot.
