Overall, the cleaning and service staff were wonderful. A delightful lady at breakfast reviewed a map of the area with us. The front desk were unhelpful and rude including not giving full details at check-in and talking badly about us because we asked about the deposit. Despite this the experience overall was great, the food great and room awesome.

Compass Margaritaville was immaculate. From the moment when we checked in, Michele was a great representative of your company. She was personable and very kind. We had a small issue with the sink, backing up in our room and she had it repaired in less than an hour. Afterwards, she provided us with a coupon for a free drink in the bar. You can only hope to have more Michele‘s on your staff!

I liked the resort, the view of the harbor was nice. The balcony is not private, you literally share it with multiple rooms. Only separated by a rod iron 3ft high fence. The traffic in the area is horrible, two lane road going to and from the beaches and a draw bridge. Gets jammed up a lot. Food was good, service good...

Nice place

This is a good, standard hotel with great proximity to Anna Marie Island and nearby beaches. The room was fine…nice view…friendly staff. The complimentary breakfast is a bit above average. But the buffet layout is poorly organized and is crowded at most times.

Pool area lacks comfort

Everything was great except for the pool side chairs. They were not comfortable at all. Some chairs were very small and were too low to the ground. Not for the elderly or people of size. There should be more of a variety of seat options offered. The showers also do not have very much water pressure. Overall stay was great, except for the 2 issues mentioned above.
