I had a lovely time at Ibis Bay Resort overall, with the beautiful grounds and the unique wildlife like tortoises and parrots making my stay nice. However, I did encounter some minor issues, such as dealing with ants in my room, and the need for better maintenance in certain areas. The friendly staff definitely made up for some of those hiccups, providing a welcoming atmosphere.
