Compass Point

On the northern side of Nassau, Compass Point's brilliantly-coloured houses dot the shoreline, making it one of the brightest and prettiest resorts in the Caribbean. Just several kilometres from the white sands of Love Beach and the world-famous Cable Beach, known for its crystal-clear waters, fine restaurants, nightclubs and golf course, whether you prefer to relax on the beach and take it easy or shop 'til you drop, a stay at Compass Point guarantees it all.

Along the tropical blossom-lined pathways, nestled in the tropical foliage, lie 18 stylish huts, decorated in playful colours. Inside, the rooms are simple and airy with natural wood floors and whitewashed walls, and are artfully furnished in an island-inspired style. All the rooms feature flatscreen TVs, as well as air conditioning and refrigerators to keep things cool. They each have a private balcony facing out to the azure ocean.

Catering to all appetites, you can dine indoors and al fresco on innovative cuisine highlighting local Bahamian spices and fresh seafood. Sip on signature Compass Point cocktails at the Ocean Bar.

Relax with a bespoke treatment in the spa, and spend some time in or by the pool, which backs on to the beach, looking out over the Atlantic Ocean - the perfect place to while away the long, sunny days. Lie on a deckchair and listen to the lapping of the waves next to you.

Go paddle boarding or snorkel in the turquoise waters amongst an array of colourful fish, horse ride along the beach, play golf or go on a deep-sea fishing trip. You can also visit Blue Lagoon Island to see dolphins and sea lions.
