Bahamas resort joins Island Outpost’s collection of chic Caribbean properties
Compass Point, the famed musician’s retreat on New Providence island, reopens December 1, 2006
Nassau, Bahamas (November 1, 2006) – Originally created by Island Records founder Chris Blackwell as he produced hits for the music industry’s most prolific artists, Compass Point, the chic and sexy Bahamas retreat in Nassau, is a contemporary sanctuary that inspires creativity and romance. Now, in an exciting announcement, Compass Point is joining Blackwell’s Island Outpost collection of chic Caribbean properties and is scheduled to reopen December 1, 2006.
Adjacent to the hip Love Beach, Compass Point will serve as a cool island escape for both A-listers and trend-setters alike – rest, relaxation and privacy thrive at this serene, secluded destination.
Compass Point is a celebration of bold imagination, as reflected in the brighter designs of its signature architecture. The property’s 18 huts sit at water’s edge, each overlooking the turquoise-coloured sea. Huts are comprised of two-story cottages and single cabanas glowing with vivid Junkanoo colours. Interior décor is all about comfort, with natural wood floors, white-washed walls and island accents. Amenities include flat-screen televisions, CD players and CD libraries, DVD players, wireless Internet and Aveda hair and skincare products.
Compass Point’s reopening integrates a dramatically redesigned restaurant with expanded seating, where bright colours of yellow and orange with red accents perpetuate a feeling of sunrise and sunset. The bar scene has a few new players here as well. Guests sip on their favourite island concoction while sitting outside at the 30-foot Ocean Bar, or give cheers to friends inside at the cozy Alcove Bar. A novel lounge area off the main dining room makes the perfect spot for intimate conversations.
Guests embrace the beach at Compass Point with snorkelling, as well as authentic land, sea and eco tours arranged by the property’s staff. A freshwater pool and nearby golf course are also available for guests’ enjoyment.
A short drive to Cable Beach and downtown Nassau, Compass Point ensures nightlife and shopping is close at hand, yet still provides an air of privacy and seclusion. The property is only 10 minutes from Nassau International Airport, with regular flights from New York, Miami or Fort Lauderdale and major international cities.
Rates, effective for travel December 1, 2006–April 16, 2007, range from $270 to $460. Rates are per room, per night based on double occupancy and do not include 20 per cent tax and service.
