Island Bay Resort earns overwhelmingly enthusiastic reviews for its immaculately maintained grounds, stunning bayfront sunsets, private beach, and the exceptional hospitality of hosts Steve and Sue, who go noticeably above and beyond for guests. The complimentary kayaks, paddleboards, and snorkel gear are repeatedly highlighted as standout perks. A small number of guests noted minor drawbacks — occasional road noise, a musty smell and soft beds in one cottage, limited bathroom counter space, and the absence of an on-site bar — but these rarely dampened the overall experience.
- Road traffic noise audible from the property at times
- Musty smell and condensation in at least one cottage
- Beds felt too soft and some furniture/kitchen fittings need attention
- Limited bathroom counter space for toiletries
- No on-site bar or drinks service — guests must bring their own alcohol
