Go inside Compass Hotel by Margaritaville (Photos)

| Jo-Lynn Brown

The Compass Hotel Anna Maria Sound by Margaritaville has opened at 12324 Manatee Ave. W., Bradenton.

The six-story, 123-room hotel is inspired by singer Jimmy Buffett and sure to be a draw for Parrotheads and regular “heads” alike.

The hotel features water views from every room with balconies and two places to wine, or margarita, and dine, Floridays Woodfire Grill & Bar and the Compass Bar and Chill.

The hotel features Margaritaville bedding, complimentary breakfast and a welcome cabana stocked with snacks throughout the day. It also offers Margaritaville’s Provisions, a grab-and-go retail store.

Compass Hotel Anna Maria Sound was developed by Floridays Development Co. and is managed by Hostmark Hospitality Group.
