“Our long weekend was wonderful!”

We just finished a 3 night stay at the Compass hotel in Anna Maria island. We were there with many families for a vow renewal and the stay was wonderful from start to finish. It was clean, staff was so friendly and accommodating and both of the restaurants/bars were excellent. The servers Jake and Mia were both great and the star of the weekend was the bartender Bridget who took such good care of our large group on multiple occasions. We highly recommend this hotel!

“Beware”

We stayed two nights. During the day after our first night we started itching from bug bites. We had not been anywhere outdoors making the room the most likely place to have gotten bitten. When we got back to the hotel for our last night we checked the beds. We found huge stains on the mattresses and box springs that had been covered up. We asked for a different room. When we checked that room the mattresses were also stained! At this point it’s almost 11 pm. The staff was friendly but couldn’t do anything more. We spoke to management the next morning and were told how thorough their cleaning process is. After Expedia contacted them they agreed to refund 1 of the 2 nights. If you choose to stay here beware. If the cleaning process is so thorough how did we end up with a ton of bug bites and two rooms that had filthy mattresses?

“Could be better after the update”

I’d like to start with the staff; everyone was super friendly. But our room needed work. The bathroom floor had deep scratches and mold / mildew around the shower and one of the walls. A long crack in the ceiling. I called after check in because our sink was not draining. I had to call 2 more times the following day before the maintenance man came to unclog it. He was very nice and did unclog it. They are updating some of the rooms; unfortunately, we didn’t have one. If you visit the island to watch the sunset head back to the bar at the hotel. Bridget the bar tender made great drinks at the inside bar. In the morning you can see dolphins and manatees in the marina behind the hotel.

“Perfect Location, Great Views, & Incredible Sunsets!”

We had a fantastic stay at the Compass Hotel by Margaritaville! Location & Views: The position just off the key is a massive plus—you get to enjoy gorgeous Anna Maria Sound bay views without having to fight the heavy island traffic. Watching the marina activity from the property adds a fun, lively dynamic, and the sunsets here are absolutely incredible. Property & Amenities: The building itself is exceptionally clean, well-maintained, and modern. Everything feels fresh, updated, and relaxed in true Margaritaville style. Bottom Line: A scenic, stress-free spot with stunning waterfront views and zero traffic headaches. We will definitely be back!
