#9 of 9 hotels in New Town & North Roosevelt by Axel's take. New Town & North Roosevelt is #5 of 6 places to stay in Key West. The best hotels in New Town & North Roosevelt, ranked · Where to stay in Key West

Axel's take: 7.6/10

Come for the waterfront character and pool, not spacious rooms or a swimming beach. A simple, retro waterfront motel with resort-style extras, scored for what it is.

Ibis Bay is a simple, retro waterfront motel rather than a full-service beach resort. We'd consider it for its colorful character, bayside hammocks and pool, with The Stoned Crab restaurant adding convenience. Booking.com and Expedia guests regularly praise the staff and setting; recent Expedia reviews are also broadly positive about cleanliness. It's a good fit if you prefer somewhere distinctive over a polished chain hotel.

The compromises are real: small rooms and particularly tight bathrooms recur across Tripadvisor and Expedia, alongside reports of worn fixtures and occasional noise. The sandy waterfront is better for lounging than swimming. You're outside Old Town, and management confirms the downtown shuttle ended in April 2025, despite lingering mentions elsewhere. A nightly, per-person resort fee also applies. We'd skip it for a swimming-beach vacation or if walking home from Duval Street matters.

  • Best for: Couples happy with simple rooms; Travelers who prioritize a pool and waterfront views; Visitors comfortable biking or using rideshares

  • Watch out for: Compact rooms and bathrooms; Waterfront lounging, not a swimming beach; Per-person resort fee; downtown shuttle discontinued

  • Location: On North Roosevelt Boulevard, outside Old Town; plan transport for Duval Street.

  • Rooms: Colorful, motel-style accommodation; recurring complaints concern cramped bathrooms, wear and occasional noise.

  • Cleanliness: Generally positive recent feedback, though not uniformly consistent across guest reports.

  • Service: Friendly, helpful staff are a recurring strength; some guests report uneven problem handling.

  • Amenities: Outdoor pool, continental breakfast, waterfront hammocks, seafood restaurant and watersports rentals.

  • Fees and surprises: Expedia lists a nightly per-person resort fee including parking; management says the shuttle ended in April 2025.
