“Fantastic Experience!”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed December 5, 2012

Another hotel recommended Compass Cove! We gave it a shot and we were beyond pleased! We arrived late Sunday night, James at the front desk was awesome! He had a gentleman bring us to see our 11th floor oceanside room before we agreed to the can't beat price of $526 for 6 nights! The hotel was great, staff was great, place was clean, my 2 bedroom room was clean, loved the laundry room! Who cares if there's no change machine, go get some at the bank! Parking was fine, sometimes we had to park in the garage, sometimes across the street. No big deal, walking certainly did not kill us. Love the pools, kids had a great time! Compass Rose was great for breakfast and Crows Nest was great for lunch and dinner. They even had recycling bins near the front door of the Pinnacle bldg! So glad we took the advice and stayed here. The only thing I complained about during this stay is the barking dogs. Some lady and her husband walked their 4 little dogs on the beach and let them bark constantly. Early am, lunch time and up to 11 at night. Someone must have said something because after a few days, they finally started controlling their barking nonsense. All the oceanview rooms have stickers on the doors that say "don't fee the sea gulls" what a great idea! Not a pesty sea gull in sight for the whole stay! When we come back to MB, we're staying here. Thank you.

“Hanson-Wisconsin”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed December 4, 2012

Living in Wisconsin, my husband and I like to get back home to SC at least once a year. This year we choose Compass Cove and what a great choice. We met up with a few other family members and had an awesome weekend. The lazy river was a favorite of mine and my 9 year old. Beautiful beach front, awesome helpful staff and excellent long island iced tea ;-)
Can't wait to do it again next year!

Room Tip: Early booking of course is always the best. However don't be to shy to ask of any specials.

“a week a compass cove”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed November 30, 2012

We had a most enjoyable week here in early November. The resort was well maintained and had everything we neeed. They serve great buffet breakfasts. There are fall pkgs which included breakfasts and this is a great deal. The condos are ideal if you are travelling with a family or couples.

Room Tip: get a pkg deal with breakfast included, can't beat it
