Fodor's Expert Review Compass Cay

Four spacious houses on the island, which is 1½ miles long and 1 mile wide, are so far apart and separated by lush palm and hardwood hammocks that you feel you have the island to yourself. Houses all have spectacular 360-degree water views from atop the limestone hilltops and come with 13-foot Boston Whalers. There is a small Dockside Grill for lunch, and a store selling drinks and snacks—as well as hotdogs and hamburgers for lunch during high season.
