Compass Point Dive Resort is a fantastic spot for divers and families alike. The rooms are spacious and well-equipped, providing a comfortable stay. The staff goes above and beyond, making the experience memorable. However, the beds could use some improvement, and the dining options, while good, could be even better. Overall, it offers great value for money, especially for diving enthusiasts.

Dining at Eagle Rays was great; the fish dishes were particularly amazing. However, I wouldn't say the dining options overall are the best in the Caribbean.

The facilities were good but could be improved. The pool area is nice, but the lack of a real beach and some amenities like beach towels was noticed.

I had a wonderful stay at Compass Point. The condos are spacious and clean, making my family feel right at home, especially with the great kitchen and easy access to the pool. However, the breakfast leaves much to be desired, and the layout of the condo could use some improvement, particularly for early risers. Overall, it was a great vacation spot for divers, but a few aspects need attention.

Compass Point Dive Resort is truly a hidden gem, especially for divers and families. The rooms are fantastic and provide everything you'd need for a comfortable stay, while the diving program is exceptional, nestling you right beside the ocean. The friendly and accommodating staff truly make the experience seamless and enjoyable. However, note that it can be a bit quiet as it's located away from the main tourist spots, and the lack of an elevator could pose a challenge for some guests.
