Great, nice clean hotel. Booked a Duluxe balcony room facing the marina. The hotel is idealy located although nothing was really walkable outside of the hotel [other than] the FIsh House Bar/Restaurant] so a car is recommended to get you places. The breakfast at the hotel was fresh with a good variation as was the coffee on tap which also of a decent standard. The happy-hour between Sunday to Thursday was also a nice touch and the bar staff were great. The only minor negatives was the rooms facing the marina have no sun direct on the balcony [possible this could be a seasonal thing in December], more as the views are stunning and it would have been nice to utilise the balcony more. The shower [or strength of the shower] was adequate but not great. Also on the room size [for a family on 3] it would have been nice to ha e a family suite available as the room was a little cramped. Other than the above the stay was fantastic

We had a short but very pleasant stay at the Compass Hotel by Margaritaville. Our room had a lovely water view, and the entire property is beautifully maintained. A relaxing and enjoyable stop, would happily return.

Cleanliness. I get good help is hard to find these days. But, do you have a housekeeping manager? Do you have someone who inspects the rooms on occasion? Little things make a big difference. The floor of the shower was filthy. Yes it’s white, yes it’s textured. So is mine in my home. But it’s pure white only cleaning it once every couple weeks. I wiped up some lotion that fell on floor and the tissue was black. The caulking around tub is stained. Appears bathroom gets cursory attention.

Front desk and breakfast staff were helpful and kind. Room was excellent with big balcony and comfortable bed. Pool was great- warm enough to use in December. We enjoyed the proximity to AMI and the reserves for hiking/biking. Hot breakfast was very tasty with frittata and fresh berries as a bonus. Amazing perfectly cooked bacon. Coffee was excellent, too. We will come back!
