This is the third time we've dived with Ocean Frontiers, but our first stay at Compass Point. This is not a hotel per se -- there are few 'hotel' amenities -- but a condo-style rental. That said, the two-bedroom, air conditioned, ocean front apartment we rented from Jan. 21-28, 2012 was very, very comfortable and spacious. Each bedroom had its... More

Thank you for the review. Based on your suggestion and others, we have now purchased stove-top kettles for each condo.... Nothing like a good cup of tea. In addition, our dive shop Ocean Frontiers, will be offering 1-Tank afternoon dives Sunday-Friday. This is also something that we have had more requests for during 2011 and had planned these new trips... More

Spent 2 weeks over Christmas at Compass Point, excellent accommodations, wonderful staff and diving with Ocean Frontiers was exceptional, especially enjoyed the nightime UV Glow Dive. More

I think one only stays on the East Side of Grand Cayman if you're going Diving or going for some other water sports. Compass Point has one of the best Dive shops attached in Ocean Frontiers (reviewed separately). And if you're going to spend your whole day underwater or simply out and about, then the self-catering apartment approach makes a... More

Thank you for the review. Just for additional information- the ocean front, phase 1, buildings were built in 2004 and the 'new', phase 2, building opened in January 2011. We also have plans for a Bar & Grill up on the ocean front pool deck area. We have our planning approval passed and liquor license in place- just need to... More

We travelled to Grand Cayman in October of 2011 and stayed at Compass Point dive resort. We stayed in the new Oceanveiw condos completed earlier in the year and were very impressed. The condos are large and well laid out and equipped with everything you will need for your stay. We travelled light as the units are also equipped with... More

This is our second trip to Compass Point. Great rooms, diving, and dive staff. We liked it so much we decided to buy a 10th share of one of the units. Now thats an endorsement!! More

Just returned from a week at Compass Point diving with their dive operation, Ocean Frontiers. My husband had been there in late September with our son and convinced me to go with him for the "summer" vacation we had yet to take. I was reluctant to go back to Cayman after the shabby treatment we got as former time share... More

Thank you for the review. Just as an update- the 'Heat Exchanger' for the hot tub (only 15 months old) was replaced with a new one on December 22nd and the hot tub is functioning perfectly... 103 degrees yesterday. Re: Pillows- We'd welcome any suggestions you may have with brand and type. Email me direct. Best regards, Steve Broadbelt More

We recently rented a 2 bedroom/2 bath condo at Compass Point. It's located on the East End, about a 30-40 minute drive from the airport. The property is nice and clean with modern amenities and they're comfortable and roomy. It would easily suit a family of 6. There is a king bed in the master bedroom, twin beds in the... More

Thank you for the good review. In October some of our Wi-Fi antennas were damaged by a lightening strike and associated power surge. On November 26th, 2011 - 3 new Wi-Fi antennas were installed to replace the damaged equipment. We have 5 ADSL modems for the Compass Point Wi-Fi Network, with a download speed of between 4-8 MB each (total... More

If you're a diver, and you're not one for a giant resort, Compass Point is a great place to stay on East End. First off, the diving is exceptional. I've reviewed Ocean Frontiers, the on-site shop separately, and they are simply the best. In terms of the accommodations, they couldn’t be more convenient if you’re diving on East End, away... More

From the friendly staff to the terrific accommodations and great location for all the best East End sites, Compass Point is a wonderful place to stay. Co-located with Ocean Frontiers, my favorite East End dive op and the one I go back to year after year, you really can't beat it for convenience to the docks and dive boats. Compass... More

From the well appointed suites to the first rate staff, we had a wonderful week where every detail was cared for. First rate dive staff who made sure we all had a great time. Get your groceries at one of the large supermarkets in Georgetown and you can cook in the full kitchen. We will be back in the spring. More
