IBIS BAY Resort to be Featured in "Sand Masters" Season Premiere on The Travel Channel!

The favorite local hangout and travel destination hotspot, IBIS BAY Waterfront Resort, will be featured on the season premiere of “Sand Masters”, which airs on the Travel Channel this Thursday, April 5 at 9 p.m.  Key West locals and guests are invited to view the premiere at IBIS BAY Waterfront Resort on the giant poolside projection screen outside the brand new Stoned Crab restaurant.

According to Chris Holland, owner of IBIS BAY Waterfront Resort, “Key West is a place to have fun, the type of fun you can’t have anywhere else, so we at IBIS BAY host tons of events throughout the year to give everyone unique experiences whether they are in town for a week or for a lifetime. We’re proud to represent Key West on Sand Masters, and it’s our hope that the show brings more travelers to support our local merchants.  I try to organize events like the outrageous Professor Splash and Sand Masters production to give Key Westers and all of the visitors some truly one-of-a-kind entertainment, and it’s always a blast!”

The Sand Guys, hosts of “Sand Masters”, visited IBIS Bay Waterfront Resort during Fantasy Fest 2011 to create some amazing and crazy sand sculptures, all while Professor Splash performed a 30-foot daredevil high dive into just 18 inches of water.  And as you’ll see by the way the hosts dress in the season premiere, they didn’t just come to watch Fantasy Fest, they came to be a part of it! 

IBIS BAY is known for having fun and original attractions such as Mixed Martial Arts Fight Nights, movie nights on the poolside movie screen, hosting performers during the Key West Songwriter’s Festival and holding fashion shows for local designers.  The resort is also involved in several fundraising efforts to support Key West causes such as The Kevin Piper Jr. Foundation and the Florida Keys Unit of the American Cancer Society.
