This place was absolutely beautiful. They surprised us with decorations in our room for our anniversary. Champagne and chocolates were an amazing touch. We will definitely be back! Their location allows for a sunset view over the water every night from a private beach and seating.

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 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.
