Resort is right across from the airport, but you still need to catch a taxi, it’s not walkable! Room looks more crappy than what I expected. The resort has thin walls, I can hear next door getting up and showering at 5am in the morning. Also, I was woken up one morning by staff, they sat on my porch and were chatting 8am in the morning (had to knock on my window to remind them that the room is occupied). I was there during off peak season, noise might be worse during peak season. There are vending machines around to purchase drinks and water, but you need to get coins from the front desk. 3 restaurants and 1 grocery store within walking distance. Bus stop right in front of the resort, which is a plus. Also, view is spectacular.

The staff are amazing. As a solo traveler, there’s a feeling of security that I feel in Bermuda that I don’t experience everywhere. The fact that Bermuda surveys all the visitors on their experience demonstrates their desire to make sure all who visit enjoy their stay.

This property is not in an ideal location. It's right by the airport and pretty far away from the mainland where all the main attractions are (i.e. Hamilton). It's not super easy to get around either. You have to take the bus or taxi or rent 2 seater electric cars which not odeal if you are family of 3 or more people with kids. Some of the resort stuff are not the friendliest. The front desk assigned me a room that was so inconvenient us with a 2 years old kid. We got the last room on the 3rd floor of the last building on top of the hill. And there's no elevator in the building. I informed them of our inconvenience and asked them to change our room, they said they'll get back to me after checking with the manager but they never did. I asked again the next day and they gave me a negative response. There were many other rooms available too. This was very disappointing. One of their restaurants stuff (Esteban) was the rudest waiter I ever encountered. We went for breakfast and sitting at a table for 10-15 minutes and no one attended us. We needed water, silverware, napkins, etc. When I managed to get an eye contact with Esteban who was about 15-20 feet away from me and motioned with my hand to come to us. He became very angry and acted very rudly and started yelling at me loudly for calling him with my hand instead of saying excuse me. This was very embarrassing and frustrating. Overall, very unpleasant experience. We cut our trip by two days and now fighting for our refund.
