Construction on exterior not pleasant

This is our third time staying in this location. We love the sunsets, the quiet of the neighborhood, and proximity to the beach. However, this time the exterior was being worked on and the noise level during the day made it impossible to stay in our unit during the day. This was even more difficult on a day that it rained and we would have enjoyed staying in our condo for some of the day.

Great beach vacation

Exactly as listed. We were very pleased with the location (5 min walk to beach) but the secluded pool by the lagoon. Wouldn't hesitate to book again.

Great location and friendly residents

It’s not right on the ocean but the walk to the beach takes about 5 minutes. You can’t beat the view of the sunrise from the 7th floor. Also, you can rent kayaks from the office and put them into the Lagoon directly from the property.

Girls Trip

We love the condo it was everything that we expected! The only thing that needs attention is the bath tub drainage is slow. The pool was clean and the view off the balcony beautiful…. I would most definitely recommend your place to family and friends……

The Point

Very please the the overall appearance and conditions of the building, grounds, and unit. One correction that is needed with the unit we stayed in was in the shower. There are absolutely no grab bars in the shower and for someone my age (84) it is very important to have bars for stability. There also need to have a dish drain in the sink for dishes to drain after washing. The bedrooms were very good and the bedding excellent. Overall, good trip.

Vacation

We loved the place. Nice. Clean. Beautiful lagoon. Quiet property. I only have two gripes, we payed 3 times the amount to extend our stay on a Thursday. Frustrating. Our code to the door shut off after what was suppose to be a check out at ten, but we extended and were locked out of our room because they didn’t extend the code to our room. The elevator has zero ventilation, or A/C. With it being 100 degrees it’s very hard to breath in said elevators.

Nice unit

Overall the unit seems newly renovated with brand new appliances in the kitchen. The beds were comfortable and there are 3 tvs all with Dish network. The building itself shows some signs of age. There is some plaster peeling on the ceilings and the ground floor and pool are being renovated. Location was great, calming view of the lagoon. Would definitely stay again and recommend.

wonderful vacation getaway

we really enjoyed staying at compass point! everything in the condo was practically new and up to date. my only complaint (and I was very disappointed about this) is that the indoor pool was closed. that was one of my main reasons for booking here. it would've been nice to k own beforehand that it was unavailable. other than that we had a great time and would definitely stay here again!

Fall Break

From a short term rental host…The condo and location were great. You can tell they have recently updated the condo itself which is a plus. I’m sure the rest of the building will be updated with time. I had two big issues with the listing. One the deadbolt didn’t work. That makes me a little nervous having small kids. Just any kind of extra safety feature (even a chain would be nice). The second thing, and the big thing is there was no disclosure that the indoor pool wasn’t in operation. Which according to others has been awhile so it should have been disclosed. That is the only reason I booked this property. We are also from the coast so we knew the outdoor pool would be too chilly so this was a big letdown to us since it was the reason we chose to not be beachfront. The rental agency wasn’t the best. We didn’t have our prepaid parking passes and when we told them their response was look around. They did eventually come in and drop some off at some point while we were at dinner. Overall I’d stay again, just some kinks that I’m assuming are from being new host.

Sept 2022

Everything was very clean and kitchen well equipped. Construction workers waited till a decent hour in the morning to make noise and this was appreciated. No complaints about them. The only complaint was the sofa. It looked good but was very uncomfortable.
