Welcome to our Jewel Box, in the beachfront Compass Point building within the gated community of Watersound! Compass Point is the closest beachfront building in the main Watersound neighborhood. Incredible Gulf and Dune views plus beautiful interiors combine for a relaxing and inspiring vacation experience.

Watersound is a walkers’ paradise with miles of trails within the neighborhood and adjoining undeveloped Deer Lake State Park. The gated Watersound community limits access to guests staying in the neighborhood, making it perfect for quiet, peaceful vacations along 30A. There are many parks and nooks throughout the neighborhood to enjoy the amazing 30A weather year-round.

To further elevate the luxurious Watersound experience, the building’s exterior will undergo updates beginning late October 2025. During certain phases of the project, parking may be rerouted, and there may be scaffolding around the building. All community amenities will remain open and fully accessible throughout the renovation period (subject to change by the HOA).

As a thank-you for your understanding, we’re offering special reduced rates so you can continue to enjoy the beauty of 30A during this time—at an exceptional value. These reduced rates are reflected in the reservation quote.

Absolutely Beautiful Condo!! The water and HVAC shut off on us 4 different times throughout the week. A maintenance company was called and came at 9:00 pm. He was fantastic, but it was still an inconvenience. Again, the condo was absolutely beautiful but just a few inconveniences

nice warm getaway for mid-westerners

Property has a wonderful ocean view and is situated in a beautiful gated community. It was perfect for our two week stay. Walks on the beach, bike rides on the trails just outside the entrance, heated pool just out the front door of the condo building. 15-20 minutes to other cute shore towns and restaurants. Totally relaxing!

Excellent 2 person vacation rental

We enjoyed the gulf views, beach, and privacy. The condo was well appointed with comfortable furniture, excellent bed, and reliable wifi. Kitchen was nicely outfitted for vacation food preparation and cooking (we mainly dined out). We plan on coming back for a romantic getaway.

Perfect Stay

The condo is beautiful and the location was great. Loved waking up to coffee on the porch and ending every evening with a beautiful sunset in the same spot! Beds were incredible comfortable. Perfect get away for 2 couples. Could not get Bose system to work and kitchen was lacking the simplest of needs (salt/pepper, coffee filters) but understand that there was probably a deep clean after the busy season and most “extras” were thrown away. Would definitely recommend and stay here again.

Spacious Condo with a View

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was very satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: The unit was beautiful and comfortable. The location was ideal and having use of the bicycles was great. We were wanting to use the gym but couldn't get access. Was also disappointed that the pool that is right in front of the unit is for homeowners only. We visited in of season and some work was being done on the building which made noise during the day.

What a View! Exactly what you expect.

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was more than satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: This unit is exactly as described and as pictures depict. The view of the gulf awesome. Furnishings comfortable and well kept. Kitchen oven is a Viking but obviously old, and you could not tell temp setting and cooked very unevenly burning part of food. Since we were there for 30 days, we cooked more than the typical visitor so may not be an issue for most. Our only inconvenience was when demolition started on unit next door during our stay, but manager intervened to ensure it was not too loud. A little annoying while we were trying to work during the day, but the unit's location, view, and interior overshadowed the inconvenience. Would definitely stay here again and recommend.

The Perfect Place to Stay on Vacation

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was very satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: There are lot or properties to rent along 30A—but if you want less populated, spectacular views, bicycles, tasteful furnishings, high-end appliances, comfortable beds, and large baths, then choose this property. Twelve-foot windows face west. The view is a tapestry of aqua water to the left, wide, white sand beaches, 15-foot sand dunes covered in emerald green foliage, and architecturally pleasing wooden pathways to the ocean. If the sun is too bright, a massive screen can be let down that has its own remote control. Directly across the street is a large, heated swimming pool, complete with a food bar where you can have a delicate fish sandwich and a glass of wine at most times of the day. This unit is on the 4th floor, the perfect height to see magnificent houses in every direction and again, and the best ocean view on 30A. After you go to the beach and enjoy a spectacular sunset, walk five minutes to Bruno’s Pizza. Often there is music and delicious pizzas. Walk back and sit on your covered patio to watch the stars, listen to the ocean and end a perfect day. I highly recommend this terrific property. It is a great location, clean, and management answers any question or addresses any concern.

An Introvert’s Dream

This property was perfect for our group of four! The condo was spacious enough for us to dine, play, or relax together indoors but also had ample room for everyone to find a spot alone when needed. The view from the balcony is even better than pictured and being near the pool made it easy to take advantage of lap swimming time in the mornings. Furniture was comfortable, unit was very clean, and kitchen had everything we needed. If it weren’t for the siren call of that beautiful gulf, we would have been perfectly happy staying inside the whole time! For those who haven’t stayed in Water Sound before, the boardwalk over the dunes is a simple walk but there are stairs at one point on the footpath before you reach the beach. Easy to navigate but good to know for any who might need a little extra help.
