Compass Point Review
This whimsical-looking hotel made up of brightly colored one- and two-story cottages offers a relaxing alternative to many of the area's major resorts. Built by Island Records founder Chris Blackwell, oceanfront rooms include a private downstairs deck complete with a kitchenette for entertaining. Windows on all sides of the rooms open to allow a cool breeze in. Sit on the dock and enjoy one of the most stunning sunset views the island has to offer. There's Internet access throughout, but for those who don't bring a laptop, a closet has been converted into Hut.com, complete with a computer and printer for guests.
