The premier place to stay in Bermuda...perfect for couples, singles and families. Great staff, great location, a wonderful spa, and it's a golfer's paradise!
What I wish I
could change:
Traveling around the island can be a bit expensive so take the complimentary water ferry that goes between the Fairmont Southampton and the Fairmont Hamilton, for shopping dining etc.
Why YOU should
go:
Talk about great value for your money! You can stay at one resort and enjoy the amenities of both Southampton and Hamilton. What could be better than that!
Perched royally on the island's highest point, The Fairmont Southampton overlooks lush acres of land, pink sandy beaches and bountiful gardens. Relax beneath a rainbow of umbrellas at the Beach Club, hit the links for a round of golf, grab your racket for a tennis match, snorkel your way around the reefs, ride the waves on a jet ski, explore the island on your scooter and enjoy our award-winning cuisine at six restaurants. Heated outdoor and indoor pools offer swimming and sunning alternatives to the 200-yard beach, which lies at the hill's foot.
Expansive grounds complement the panoramic ocean views visible from the resort's hilltop location. Complimentary trolley buses transport guests to the beach, golf course, and a waterside restaurant and water-sports cove, from where guests can catch a complimentary ferry to downtown Hamilton for shopping and dining. The resort's pink-sand beach runs beside a turquoise cove protected by offshore reef and rock formations. Lounge chairs offer sunning opportunities; umbrellas provide shade.
The hotel's 30,000-square-foot health-and-beauty spa offers a variety of relaxation and rejuvenation treatments. The resort's boat provides complimentary ferry service to a sister hotel located just 3 blocks from Hamilton's shopping and dining center.
