This was our honeymoon trip and our first ever AirBnB experience. We stayed for a lovely long ten days. We were looking for something clean and simple, with a bit of outdoor space in an extremely convenient location to relax, explore and meet up with our Bermudian friends. Lana’s place is all of this and more. The flat is exactly as shown in the photos and is comfortable, very clean and good value for money. An information pack is provided (useful for the ferry times). It is a basement flat; Lana lives in the main house above, so she is close at hand if you need her help but never intrusive. We found the bedroom very comfortable with lovely bed linen and good closet space and we were provided with plenty of towels.The shower is wonderful after a warm salty day on the water and the bathroom is equipped with a hairdryer and liquid soap (appreciated). We also very much appreciated the towel dryer provided. We loved the little patio area with BBQ. We took a leisurely breakfast on the patio every morning and a nice glass of something every evening before going out to meet friends. We chose Lana’s flat for the location. It is in a fairly quiet residential street, close to the bus stop, grocery store and ferry to Hamilton. It is also close to the railway trail. We thoroughly enjoyed the walk to elbow beach (about 30 minutes, but a lovely walk on the trail, so much so that we also walked back from Horseshoe bay as well!). As we were on honeymoon, we treated ourselves to a meal at the very nice restaurant on the corner of the road, Four Ways Inn (great food, lovely atmosphere and amazing service). One useful thing to know is that if you wish to rent a scooter, Oleander scooters will come out to pick you up at your Airbnb and drop you off at the end of the rental.

This rental is a must in Bermuda. It is steps away of the ferry and the bus. Has a full sized supermarket a few minutes walk and a gorgeous patio. Lana was sweet and responded quickly. Book this place with confidence.

Very nice secluded bottom floor of a family home with its own entrance, outdoor patio and own little gate. Lana and Chris are very helpful and have made sure to provide everything needed for a successful stay. The location is walking distance from a supermarket and it's about a 20 minute walk to rent a scooter so you can explore the rest of the island. Centrally located, Hamilton is only 15 minutes away by scooter. Great place!

What an amazing stay! Lana and her husband were such great hosts. Lana was very responsive, both before and during our stay making things so easy. She was always available to answer questions. Her husband even drove us over to the cycleshop in the morning to pick up our bike for the weekend. Since we were picking the bike up saturday morning and leaving early monday (before they opened), the shop let us keep the bike til monday and just picked it up from the house. Lana was so nice to let us leave the keys and have the shop pick it up from their place. They were such gracious hosts, and their house and little courtyard were wonderful. the location was perfect for our trip as it's equidistant to both ends of bermuda, and just a short moped ride to hamilton or the popular beaches (Horseshoe bay, Warwick Long Bay, Elbow, etc). Loved it! can't thank them enough!

Lana's place was great for us to be able to see all of the museums and tourist attractions. She communicated well and was available when ever we needed her. Four Star is a great pizza place if you need a quick bite to eat when you arrive, the store is in walking distance. For everything else you will want to grab a bus/ferry pass. The ferry stop is a 4 minute walk as well as the bus pass. Recommend you plan to take the bus or Ferry to Hamilton to transfer to a different route. The roads are pretty dangerous to walk on too much and while the beach was about a 10 minute run away the roads weren't that safe to walk on. We were able to see all the corners of Bermuda from Lana's place without too long of a bus ride from St George's to the Dockyard. Thanks Again!

Lana was great. She was off the island during our stay but communication was fast and easy. Lovely little apartment in a great location. Great outdoor area. We had a 9 day stay and were very comfortable. Good bathroom with good shower . Supermarket and ferry close by. Would stay again. Good value for money.

Lanas place is great! Just what a couple needs. Close and central, cozy and quiet!! This is a must stay for those who travel! Affordable and just perfect for a short or extended stay!! Crissanne and I loved every minute!! Thank you.

Lana was a fantastic host. She was very helpful in the run-up to our stay, connecting us with friends who helped us arrange various activities. She also gave us all the details on events going on during the week. The place itself was very comfortable, and Lana made us feel very much at home. Great place, great host!

All in the details! All about the views! Going way beyond the average rental standards, Richard and Karen have created something truly special with their oceanfront apartment. Comfortable, high-end finishes and amenities throughout the immaculately clean and tastefully designed apartment. Stay here if you are looking for a quiet, relaxing, retreat-style experience. Richard and Karen made us feel very welcome and were most helpful and accommodating. We had everything we needed and more. Can't wait to return!

Complete tranquility. Endless beauty. Best stars we have ever seen. A true hidden gem! The attention to detail on all fronts is impressive. Incredible location, beautiful pool, pristine apartment with all the modern amenities... and awesome hosts too! We definitely recommend a scooter, but taxis are abundant if you prefer that instead (~$15 to the Fairmont Southampton during peak Sat night dinner hour). This is the place to be!

I have delayed in writing this review because I don't want any one to now how great this listing is...I do not want any competition with bookings. But, since Richard and Karen were so nice I guess I have to be, too. The place and the apartment were a dream,exactly as described and really posh. We loved everything about our experience; from the view, the space, the quiet, the location and the hosts(AND the fully equipped kitchen). The hill is steep but it just added to the adventure, and we fell in love with the walk to our 'private' beach at Whale Bay. The weather was a bit cool, we asked Richard to fix, he tried valiantly but to no avail. We'll just go a little later in the year, if after this review leaves us any times left. See ya next year!!

Richard and Karen's Air BnB home is absolutely beautiful . They are gracious and accommodating hosts as well. The home is ready made for a short or long term stay with everything you need provided. Can't say enough about how lovely the home and the setting is. Stunning.

Richard and Karen are the best hosts we've ever encountered through Airbnb. Our trip to Bermuda started off a bit bumpy but they both went out of their way to make sure we were on the right track as soon as they could. Aside from the awesome view that you have to see in person to believe, the apartment is simply lovely. A bar of soap and a few clothes are all you'd really need to bring to feel right at home. The kitchen is well stocked with everything you'd need to cook every meal if you get rained in for a day like we did. The bed is in a word, magnificent!! The living room area is cozy and great to lounge in after a day of exploring the island. But we can't stress the absolute awesomeness of Richard and Karen enough. Their hospitality made our stay 1000x better and we can't wait to return to the island and stay at their fantastic apartment.

A beautiful private little hideaway with the most amazing view of the ocean and sunset! We arrived the day before the owners went on vacation so we were fortunate to have full privacy our whole stay - full access to the infinity pool - so I think ours was an extra exceptional stay. However, this was almost a perfect little paradise away from home. The house is furnished as if straight out of an Ikea catalogue (if you value an aesthetically pleasant stay- we did). It had everything we needed and then some - minus blender for blended rum cocktails, just saying :) The only slight downside to our stay is that we spent more time/money than we wanted to on getting around walking/waiting for buses. We were there on a weekend and the buses run almost hourly and the timetables aren't specific to stops so it's hard to plan. You also have to walk a very narrow street (no sidewalk!) on the busiest streets if you walk anywhere. And there's a [beautiful but] hilly 10min walk from the house to where the bus stops. So, the house, as all taxi drivers mentioned, is not really close to much. Be prepared to walk and spend time on getting around. Unless you have a driver, rent a scooter (which locals advised us against - dangerous windy narrow roads) or want to spend NY rates on cabs- which we did a lot in the end. In closing, I would def stay at this house again. I would just practice riding a scooter before I get there!

The apartment is just as pictured, no trick photography here. Just a beautiful and peaceful location on a bluff overlooking the ocean. The neighborhood is friendly and the location offers a restful and private location - only the sounds of surf and sea. The apartment is tastefully outfitted with a wonderful master suite - no compromises made there at all. The apartment is equipped completely - on days the beach towel can't go on the line - there's a washer/dryer. Richard's suggested local driver was informative and punctual - and provided a wealth of local information. All in all - a perfect location that we look forward to returning to. 2km north and you are at Whale Bay beach - 2km south and you are at Church Bay beach. A little further east and the unique cove at Horseshoe Bay is a favorite. Bus stops are under 10 minutes and take you west to the Dockyards, mid-island for Hamilton and east to St Georges. This was a much appreciated and picture-perfect location for our Bermuda getaway.

Richard and Karen's one bedroom home in Bermuda was the relaxing, fully-equipped oasis we were hoping for -- and the views they advertise in their listing are even more spectacular in person. If you're looking for a beautiful home, away from the potentially crowded and higher priced main towns in Bermuda, this is just the place. You can get to the main towns of Bermuda via the bus stop just down the hill from their home, but you can also stock up on groceries, enjoy the sunsets and entertain yourselves wonderfully at this fully functional home. Besides the views of the Atlantic Ocean and the infinity pool, they've got a fully stocked kitchen with dishes, pots and pans and a dishwasher to clean up after a fresh cooked meal - and don't forget about the grill! A washer and dryer allows you to freshen up your laundry after a day at the beach or after a nice long run on Bermuda's longest running trail - the Railway Trail. (Richard gives great directions to make sure you don't loose the route!) Richard and Karen were also unbelievably helpful by organizing a taxi to / from the airport, making sure the grill had gas in it, providing a few bus tickets to "get us started" and many other aspects of how they designed and stocked the home like wifi access, Apple TV and a super comfortable bed! Next time we need a little getaway from city life, we know exactly where we'll be staying - thanks Richard and Karen!

This was our first time to Bermuda and Silvia was extremely helpful with coordinating transporation, making local dining suggestions and even providing us a local cell phone to use through our trip. If we had a question, her responses were very prompt. I would definitely recommend a stay with Silvia for your next visit to Bermuda. Thanks Silvia!

Silvia is a great host and her place is just lovely. What you see is exactly what you get but there are more details not shown on the ad that make this place even more perfect.

This was our second time at Panatola and once again it was a perfect stay. The location is excellent- easy to find, walking distance to a lovely beach and several restaurants. The apartment is spacious, clean, quiet, and ideal for a relaxing getaway. Silvia is always very responsive and helpful, making the stay seamless. While we always dined out, the kitchen has everything one would need to cook meals. We love staying here and look forward to returning again!

Had a great time during my stay at Silvia's guest suite. Despite being away at the time, Silvia was very communicative to make sure I was well accommodated. I was slated to arrive on Christmas Day and Silvia gave me a heads up that taxis would be scarce on arrival. She offered to book a taxi for when I arrived and saved me the trouble of getting stuck at the airport. Silvia's husband Peter and their (very friendly) pet dog Lola greeted me on arrival. Peter was very kind and provided some groceries (again very appreciated due to most stores/restaurants being closed on Christmas Day). The suite was very clean and comfortable, including a full kitchen, bathroom as well as a cable TV, wifi access, and a local prepaid phone. The location is great; walking distance from many great beaches, the Gibbs' Hill Lighthouse, a convenience store, and a cycle (moped) shop. Would definitely look to staying here again should I make it back to the island.

Silvia's place was just like she described, and we instantly felt comfortable and at home. During our 5 day/4 night stay, we visited the nearby Horseshoe Bay Beach and explored the rest of Bermuda (City of Hamilton, Historic town of St. George's, Royal Naval Dockyard) via public bus which was easily accessible from the home. We also took advantage of the nearby fancy Fairmont Southampton hotel, frequently hopping onto their shuttles to the beach and using their concierge as a resource to ask touristy questions, buy bus tokens or to exchange leftover money. The recommended restaurants nearby were wonderful, but we realized that eating out every meal got expensive quickly. We walked to the supermarket (not too far away but kinda nerve-wracking at times with no sidewalks and zooming traffic) for groceries and saved a ton of money cooking-in. Silvia's kitchen was well-equipped for that, and we enjoyed many meals sitting outdoors admiring the beautiful scenery and night skies. We were very happy with the amenities at the studio (beach towels, hairdryer, iron, etc.) and never felt the need to request for anything else. The cellphone Silvia provided comfort in case of emergency, though we didn't use it during our trip. All in all, we had a wonderful time at Silvia's place, and would gladly recommend it to friends and family in a heartbeat!

I was so happy when I got to Silvia's apartment. Not only was she such a lovely, accommodating host given that I was arriving later than expected, her place was beautiful, tranquil and well-situated. During the booking process, Silvia was an incredibly kind and gracious host already making my stay there wonderful. It was lovely to meet her the next day when she came to introduce herself and answer some of my questions, and I was so grateful to be in such a beautiful place, with such a beautiful view. The apartment is lovely - the view is incredible, it is clean, spacious, and bright. The kitchen is well-stocked, and the bed and couch are super comfortable. From the fast wifi to the extra towels for the beach, I highly recommend Silvia's apartment. The bus stop is a few minutes away, as well as the Southampton Princess and the beautiful Horseshoe Bay beach. The apartment is situated in the perfect place to enjoy the whole island easily and effortlessly. In addition, simple gestures such as a pre-paid cellphone for her guests to use during their stay, as well as information about the local buses and sights made for an incredibly comfortable stay. Silvia is a wonderful host, and that radiates to her apartment, which is beautiful. I felt so at home there, and I highly recommend it to anyone visiting Bermuda.

Silvia was an awesome hostess, the studio is beautiful, the yard space is amazing, the stay was clean and included information about every part of the island. :-)

She greeted us as we walked up the drive, the place was perfect and extremely clean and had everything you would ever need. She explained every thing and was very helpful about getting a cab when we were leaving. Great neighbor hood and wonderful view. I would never stay anywhere else in Bermuda.

La anfitriona nos trató muy bien, muy amable. Nos facilito sitios de interés de las islas y a la hora de llegar a su casa hablo con un taxista para que no tuviéramos problemas.

Sabrina's place is awesome. I loved it. Sabrina herself is great host, thanks to her we saw the whole island in 3 days. She is just great.

The studio is absolutely lovely! So is Sabrina, the hostess! The place is well equipped, including a heavenly bed (every night was a good night sleep). It has a little veranda, a beautiful garden and the most stunning ocean view. I also loved the quiet location on top of a hill in the middst of a golf court. If you like to move, I recommend renting a bicycle to explore this magnificent island. My stay at Pompano Flats Ocean View has definately exceeded my expectations by far. There is everything you need - and if not, Sabrina will look to it. She is an amazing hostess; easy to communicate with, always helpful, always lovely and a paragon of knowledge about Bermuda, which she is happy to share - in a few words, on a map or a ride across the island. Here is the thing: there is no such thing as the 'Bermuda triangle' in which you get lost, you just don't want to leave anymore! Pompano Flats Ocean View is a 10 out of 10, I would come back anytime!

Sabrina's place was excellent. She is very knowledgable about fun things to do on the island and seems to know everyone. She and her mom are very friendly and willing to help whenever and can help with just about anything. Her dog, Biscuit, is a sweetheart too. The only bad thing really was that the Internet cost was an extra $20 and only one person was able to connect at a time for whatever reason. It was the only way to talk to my family over thanksgiving break or look up things to do though, so I paid. Other than that, the place was great. There was only one cockroach which was really good for an island and we had our privacy as well. I definitely recommend staying here if you are coming to Bermuda.

Perfect location, perfect host - couldn't ask for anything more out of the trip, was a wonderful experience, when I come back to Bermuda I will be staying here again Sabrina was incredibly welcoming, everything was just as described and the neighborhood was great

Sabrina was an incredible host, extremely helpful and kind. And the pompano beach flat's room was exactly what my sister and I were looking for, a home away from home. I will be going back to Bermuda in the near future and intend on staying at one of Sabrina's properties.

Unfortunately, experience of my boyfriend and I were far from excellent. And I have seen none of the friendliness and hospitality that other guests are talking about. In fact it was full of rude and hostile treatment. Apartment is far less nice than the pictures might lead you believe and you don't have that much privacy. Sabrina was not around during our visit and her 80-years old mom (who appeared to share the wall with us) was "taking care" of us. Mother started by being unhelpful telling us she didn't know how exactly internet password is spelled (we tried all possible capitalization and could never get it to work) and later turning absolutely hostile towards both me and my boyfriend, showing up in the middle of a second day and accusing us of not having payed (even though all transactions were handled through airbnb), adding that she didn't like us from the very beginning. Once she realized she was wrong about the payment (a day later), she again stormed into the studio we were staying at, stared angrily at me and yelled "You payed, so you were right, OK?". I am not going to lie - it did make our vacation quite a bit less pleasant, especially since she continued dropping in on us unannounced. Barely a relaxing , left alone romantic situation. Since the password problem was never resolved, we had no way of contacting any tours, finding restaurants etc (there is no phone in the room either). Which again made things much more difficult than they should have been (especially since the nice restaurants are at least 30 min away). Once I came back home and told Sabrina about her mom, I expected an apology, instead I have gotten an email berating me for being ungrateful for the beauty of Bermuda (??) and not admitting that I had a great time. Now about apartment. It is mainly clean, just be careful around the windows - those are full of spiderweb and dust. The ceilings are extremely low, which makes already a tiny room feel completely claustrophobic. Kitchen utensils and plates etc are located on an ugly stand right next to your bed; lamps are super bright, barely covered and shining right into your eyes - all in all this place is very far from cosy. The studio itself is part of the large house and it is barely fair to call it a studio as you do not have much privacy, with an old lady and another neighbor and a constantly-barking dog right by your windows.

The view is just spectacular! Our little apartment was quite cozy... It even came with a "mom" ( Alice) and a dog ( biscuit) ! Convenient to the bus line, a 10 minute walk down , and then up at the end of the day. The only thing we were missing in the room was a colander, we cooked spaghetti, which was provided when we asked. Don't forget to go a little past your street to the resort down on the water for a fancy dinner and entertainment ( those rooms are $400+) and a awesome view! The price is great and very beautiful area. Sabrina arranged to have a car meet us, Jason was great, and stopped so we could pick up groceries and a bus pass.

It was a pleasure to stay at the Natalia. The cottage itself is large and comfortable, essentially a small private apartment in terms of amenities. It sits alongside the pool, across from the owners' home and next to a lovely patio and garden. Inside, it has an open floor plan with separate eating and sleeping nooks; good water pressure in the shower; music and TV; and a soft mattress. The cottage is quiet despite being close to the pool and house, and the street it's on it fairly small and so also quiet. Mike and Sharon offer their extensive local expertise on where to eat, swim, snorkel, jog, whatever - all advice that's worth taking. They're experienced hosts and are professional with their guests. They even provide a custom-made guidebook in the cottage that has everything you really need, including bus schedules (surprisingly hard to find, otherwise) and short cuts to the beach. It's a good location to explore from, close to Middle Road (and several bus routes) and about a 20-minute walk to the excellent southeastern-shore beaches. There's a supermarket nearby, and a decent local restaurant and ice-cream place as well. Overall, we were very happy with our stay.

Great spot! My fiancé and myself had a wonderful trip to Bermuda. This is especially great if you have scooters because it is a secluded location. Just a short ride to anything you need. It's also close to public transportation. Great place with lots of character and feels like home. I would stay here again

I feel like the listing photos and description very accurately represent Natalia Pool Cottage. I would recommend staying there to anyone and would want to stay there again when we come back to Bermuda (hopefully soon!). The cottage and grounds are beautiful and peaceful. There's a nice table to eat outside and chairs right outside the cottage for lounging in the sun. They also have outdoor speakers so you can listen to music while you relax or eat. We often had the entire patio/pool area to ourselves. That being said, everyone we met while staying there was very polite and friendly. Their two dogs are very sweet and well-behaved, too. Inside the cottage is very nicely decorated and actually bigger than I thought it would be. The kitchen was well stocked with dishes for cooking - they give you dish soap and some basic spices too. They changed out our bath towels mid-week which was nice. Bring your own toiletries to make sure you have what you need. Inside, they immediately make you feel welcome with fresh flowers and a manual on the cottage, property and things to do in Bermuda. We often referred to the manual for our day trips and excursions. The manual actually references a free tour in Hamilton that we had not previously heard about. Mike and Sharon are great with providing additional references for airport pick-ups, tours, restaurants, etc. Two restaurants in the manual we loved were Mad Hatters and Tempest - YUM! I will say the walk to the beach is a bit of an adventure hike - especially climbing through the brush to get to the railroad trail. It wasn't terrible just more of a trek than we thought it would be. The beach is worth the walk though and the trails were quiet - we only saw one other person on our walk. However, if you had a scooter or took the bus, it's not a bad drive. We fell in love with Warwick Long Bay Beach and Jobson's Cove Beach. The sand is like pink sugar and the water is amazing. Plus the beaches are so quiet - we had Warwick to ourselves one day. I would avoid Horseshoe or do a quick pit-stop there to say you went and then walk to Jobson's Cove or Warwick Long Bay. We didn't rent scooters and were fine walking (not a lot of sidewalks but cars and scooters do move over) and the bus. The bus stop is a downhill walk from their house and really very close. There is a supermarket with a few restaurants within walking distance as well. We honestly felt like we did fine without the scooter. We can't say enough good things about this rental and Bermuda in general. It's the only island we've returned to and I can wholeheartedly say we want to go back again. People are so welcoming; there is a lot to do; it's safe and easy to get around. Thank you Mike and...

The pool cottage was lovely, just as shown in photographs. Location is perfect for getting around. Mike was friendly and gave us many recommendations for things to do while on the island. Definitely recommend!

We had a very good time on Bermuda. The house is as descibed and in very good condition. There is everything you need in the house and a supermarket around the corner. Hosts are super polite and very helpful, we felt very welcome.

We stayed at Mike and Sharon place for the thanksgiving weekend and we had the perfect relaxing retreat! The place was very clean and nicely located around very good spots of the island. We will definitely recommend the place!

Sharon and Mike were amazing hosts! Their cottage was exactly how I expected it would be. It was a home away from home and we loved coming back every night and leave the door open to catch the Bermudian breezes. The kitchen is large and comes with anything you would need. We came a few days before Hurricane Gonzalo roared ashore and they were very helpful and informative of what to expect. They even offered an extra bedroom in the main house if we were worried. We stayed in the cottage until the calm eye went over the island and then they invited us and some neighbors on the porch to have some drinks and chat. It is a night I will never forget! Sharon has an extremely helpful notebook that will answer any questions you have about the island. There is also a phone that you can use to call local businesses if you need to plan any excursions. The cottage is in a residential area but you can very easily get to Hamilton via the bus route which is right down the street. There is also a great grocery store a little further down. I would love to come back to Bermuda again and stay at that cottage and I hope to see them whenever they come to Boston!

We really enjoyed the Natalia Pool Cottage. Located in the residential neighborhood of Warwick, it was clean, cozy and full of amenities. The cottage is separate from the main house so provides ample privacy. I'd recommend it to any travelers to Bermuda.

My family and I had a wonderful experience at Carolyn's . The apartment was cozy, functional, and had all we needed. Carolyn and her family were great hosts. My daughter celebrated her 4th birthday while we were there, and Carolyn's mother in law even brought her -and her baby sister- some presents! The beach, bus stop, and playground are right there. The supermarket is a bus ride away. It was tricky crossing the road at first, but we ended up mastering it. Beware, there are no sidewalks in the narrow roads. We were happy we brought our carrier and not the stroller-there is not much space in the bus for bags/strollers. Enjoy!

My husband, our 14 month old toddler, and I greatly enjoyed our stay and would highly recommend Carolyn's place to others. The other reviews were consistent with our experience and I will try not to repeat too much of what has already been said. One additional note about the house - it offers one of the quietest night's sleep we have had in an airbnb rental. As described, Jobson's beach is one of the best, if not the best, on the island for toddlers. We often had it to ourselves in the mornings. Wednesday and Thursday afternoons it did get crowded with cruise ship passangers and thus were less optimal times for a visit. We are not enthusiastic cooks and so we solved the dilemma of no walkable restaurants by renting a moped and sending one adult out to get groceries or take out. Island cuisine had OK takeout but surprisingly we found the made-to-order grill food, like quesadillas, from the nearby gas station to be the best. We also went to the Swizzle in by bus twice. We rented our cycle from oleander cycles in paget. The experience was spotty. I might try elbow beach cycles during a future visit. Unfortunately, few places sell the bus ticket books. If the airport sells them I would buy them there in the future otherwise it requires a trip into the Hamilton bus depot. Carolyn arranged our taxi rides to and from the airport. I highly recommend this. On the way there it ensures the driver can find the house until you are adept at giving directions and on the return it ensures an on-time arrival. Given the limited number of taxis and the fact that they are independent contractors we have had some difficulties procuring reliable service during past visits. Finally, a note about water and electricity (aka the air conditioning) which are scarce and/or expensive resources. I really appreciated that Carolyn seems to have factored these into the rental cost.

What a great place and a great island! We had such a fun time. The apartment was perfect. Crossing the street to the beach was a little like a true life game of frogger but it felt like our own private beach. I can't wait to visit again!

Amazing stay once again. This is our go to spot on the island as it is walking distance to the best beaches on Bermuda!

The location can't be beat-close to bus stop and a gorgeous beach. The ride into Hamilton is quick and easy either by bus or taxi. Carolyn and her family were so welcoming and helpful. Shannon, Carolyn's husband, took us into town for groceries right when we arrived, which we greatly appreciated. carolyn was super responsive to any of the question we had. The unit was absolutely perfect and met the needs of my family of 4 perfectly. The kitchen is terrific and bathroom easily accommodated all of us. They have an ample supply of beach towels, a couple of chairs and an umbrella to bring down to the beach, too. We highly recommend Ocean Sounds Vacation rental for your next Bermuda vacation!

Awesome place, the best location across the street from the most breath taking beach! Loved the house and Carolyn is such a sweet person! Great family! One of my favorite vacations!

The place is literally right across the street from the beach, about a 5 min walk to the bus stop. It's near the lower end of the island but the island is small so it doesn't matter. The apartment is spacious and she provides you with everything you could need to feel at home. Thank you to you and your family Carolyn for the awesome hospitality and kindness. I will most certainly keep in contact with you.

Thank you for a wonderful place to stay and your hospitality. The James' were so nice and the place was very clean. It was a 2 minute walk to the beach! A very pretty beach! Would definitely come back! They got us a taxi from the airport and left eggs, oj and bread in the fridge!

Listing was accurate and hosts were awesome. Nice and close to downtown. Very quiet area! Would definitely stay again.

Mike & Sharon were wonderful hosts. They left very comprehensive overviews of the island for us to use and also pointed us in the right direction for bike rentals, restaurants, trails, bars, etc. The Natalia guest house in itself was a fantastic place to say for those who are going to be out and about for the majority of their trip - a place to rest your head, check in using wi-fi, and cook a quick breakfast before heading out for the day. We'll be back again!

Mike and Sharon's studio was beautiful and it had everything we needed. If there was one thing we weren't too happy about it was the pool.. to my understanding we paid a bit extra for the use of the pool and it was dirty and unusable pretty much our whole trip. If we had to choose to stay there again we would probably stay somewhere else, but we appreciate Mike and Sharon's hospitality regardless.

We had such a wonderful time, and everything about the apartment, from the private grill area to the detailed instructions to get to the beach, to the friendly pair of pups was fabulous! Walking distance to one of the best local restaurants on the island as well as grocery stores, and public transportation. (Buy the multi-day pass that works for buses and ferry. Totally worth it). Highly recommended if you want to explore the island on your own, and not as part of a cruise or resort group!

Mike and Sharon were awesome hosts and we thoroughly enjoyed our stay! The room was very clean and comfortable. The location is very private and peaceful. We made use of the grocery store down the street, and our own private kitchen and outdoor patio area. The Wifi was awesome and so was the cable. Mike and Sharon provide a detailed map with highlighted must see locations as well as plenty of transportation, eating, and entertainment recommendations. We really enjoyed the detailed description of a local way to walk to the nearest beach- would definitely recommend trying that adventure! We also had the pleasure of enjoying Mike and Sharon's company for drinks one night on their patio with some of their friends. Everyone was so welcoming and friendly. If we ever make it back to Bermuda we will for sure look up Mike and Sharon again! Thank you guys!

This is a charming place to stay--convenient to the bus, beautiful room and bath, well-set up kitchen, lovely pool and garden. We appreciated all the written information and brochures, helpful maps. Mike and Sharon have thought of everything that makes a good stay.

A lovely and quiet place:) The bus stops and food market are both in walkable distance and easy to find. The hosts are friendly and would love to help, they've been giving lots of helpful information for getting familiar with the island, like direction, recommend sight spots, mapping, taxi service.etc. :)

It was a good experince

AMAZING! PERFECT! FLAWLESS! I can't saw enough about this place. We stayed at three air bnb while in Bermuda and this was BY FAR the best. It is SOOOO nice. It truely was the high class vacation place we were looking for. Martina and her husband are SO nice. The pool is GORGEOUS, pictures can't do it justice. It was so nice to have the pool for a bit of a change away from the sand and ocean salt water. It's a must have. The apartment is SO nice. The bed is very comfy! We watched Netflix in bed at night. Private hammock is SWEET! The porch overlooks a beautiful bay with a perfect view of sunsets. If I come back to Bermuda I literally will stay here and here only. I would plan my vacation around the availability of this place. It's THAT good. AMMENITIES AMMENITIES AMMENITIES! Holy cow! They provide kayaks, snorkeling gear, fishing gear, bikes, amazing pool and grill, Netflix, hammock and lounging chairs in grass. Everything in Bermuda is very expensive, so getting these ammenities for free is great. Snorkeling gear alone anywhere in Bermuda is 20$ a day to rent or 120$ to buy. But with Martina, it's free:) we saw plenty of turtles which was awesome. To start off our stay Martinas husband even took us on a boat ride!!!! My wife LOVED this place. It was the perfect way to finish our honeymoon in Bermuda. Thank you Martina!!!

If you are looking for an Airbnb in Bermuda you can stop searching! Barry and Martina's home is perfect! Our room was beautifully decorated, clean, super comfortable bed and bedding, and felt like a luxurious hotel room. Martina and Barry were fantastic hosts! They took us out on their boat, arranged a snorkeling excursion, helped us get around the island, and made us feel very welcome and at home. We loved getting to know them, hanging out at the beautiful pool, taking the kayaks on adventures, and swinging in the hammock enjoying the gorgeous views of the exquisite blue water. We will recommend Martina and Barry's Airbnb to everyone and look forward to returning!

Barry and Martina were elegant and gracious hosts. They had a wonderful sense of when we needed privacy and when we felt like being social. The West Wing of the Seaforth was airy and bright and the view divine. We had a glorious honeymoon and look forward to our next visit.

Our visit was wonderful at Seaforth! Beautiful and very comfortable suite with an AMAZING view of the harbor. Also, the pool and grill were great amenities that we enjoyed in the evenings. Martina, Barry, and the three dogs made us feel very welcomed during our stay. Martina was very quick in responding to messages and providing tips when planning our vacation. Barry helped us out one morning when we ran out of coffee with sharing his freshly brewed pot of coffee. We truly enjoyed our stay at Seaforth- highly recommended! We look forward to our next trip!

The Seaforth was perfect and we'd love to return. Barry and Martina were so friendly and helpful every step of the way. They went above and beyond to make us feel comfortable and ensure we had a memorable stay. The room has everything you need and more, the pool area is pretty and a great place to relax, and the view from the house is spectacular.

Between the rum swizzles, dining suggestions, and general helpfulness, Barry and Martina made our stay in Bermuda so wonderful. We loved staying with them and will be coming back soon!

Seaforth is a beautiful property and Barry and Martina were very helpful and gave us our privacy. They were very responsive. There is another guest suite which attaches to the pool, so you share the common areas. The room was very comfortable and updated beautifully! Their three dogs are so sweet and very friendly. The views from the bedroom and porch are incredible! Get a cab drivers number so you can schedule trips efficiently!

This was our first Airbnb experience. I am not sure how the future stays will be able to hold up to our hosts Martina and Barry and their wonderful home. They could not have been any more accommodating and friendly. It was more like visiting old friends. From the personal service of pickling us up at airport, taking us to grocery store for supplies, too hosting a little happy hour up at the pool, to taking us to go see local band play, to enjoying a night cap on the front porch, it was beyond what any host could be expected. On top of that both Barry and Martina are both fun and nice. The apartment unit on the west wing, is new this year and was perfect for us. Better than many high end hotel rooms. Bed was very comfortable.. View from hammock was killer. Enjoyed morning coffee looking at the water. Kayaking in the harbor was so nice. We also enjoyed the company of the families 3 dogs, who treated us like family and made us fee welcome. Bathroom was very nice. The pool was also fantastic. We wholeheartedly recommend this property and desire to return.

Georgina & Steve's cottage made for a perfect stay in Bermuda. The space is lovely. Quiet and private and just a 5 minute walk to the beach. You really can't beat the location. You can rent scooters right next door at Elbow Beach and there's a handful of good restaurants within a 5-minute ride. There's a bus stop right around the bend, and you're only 10-15 minutes to Hamilton. The house is set back on a beautiful, nestled property, rich with greenery. A treat to wake up to each morning. Georgina and Steve were wonderful hosts – easy to communicate with, thoughtful, and they gave us a bunch of helpful tips for living like true Bermudians. We can't wait to return.

This place was amazing! it has everything you would need and even some extras. you could not get a better location if you tried. its located right in between elbow and coral beach and a very short and easy walk down. Georgina provided everything we needed for a great beach day! towels, umbrellas, chairs and even to go cups. The bathroom had lotions and oils as well. it has a fully functional kitchen which we used every morning. the private garden was perfect for that morning cup of coffee. We just loved everything about it. The bed was comfortable too! I honestly could not be more happy with our stay. If youre going to Bermuda but dont want to spend 600 dollars a night on a hotel, this is your go to place to stay. you wont be disappointed!

Exactly as described! Cozy, private, and steps from the beach. We can't wait to come back!

We had a lovely say in Georgie and Steve's cottage, which is very conveniently located just next to beautiful Elbow beach. Steve was fantastic, making us feel welcome right from the start and doing all he can to help us make the most out of our time in Bermuda. The cottage is quite small but convenient, and the outdoor space and barbecue are a delight.

We had a great stay. The info on the airbnb listing for the home and the message Georgie sent out before is very helpful and completely accurate. Everything was really clean and comfortable. Georgie called round shortly after we got into the home. It was nice to say hi and she also answered any questions we had/gave recommendations. There was also lots of leaftlets and flyers in the home. We hired bikes from Elbow Beach Cycles (and got a discount). Bus to Horseshoe Bay or Hamilton is quick and easy. We would definitely stay there again.

Georgie and Steve's cottage is exactly as shown in the listing. Totally sweet, clean, comfortable and right near the entrance to an idyllic public beach. Steve came to meet me the first evening and was very helpful and friendly. I never met Georgie but she was easy to communicate with and by the time I got to the cottage I felt like I had pretty much all the info I needed (the one thing Steve pointed out that I couldn't figure out on my own was that the washer/dryer and beach chairs are outside in a little shed). The cottage feels very private, but is right near a main road, which is great because it's easy to get to the beach, the bus, public trails, and grocery store. Also with that came more traffic noise than expected. I was traveling alone and am more sensitive to noise than most people so I would definitely bring noise cancelling headphones if I visit again. I imagine if you are coming from a city you would barely notice the noise. I spent most of my time walking or at the beach during the day and after the first day or so only really noticed the traffic noise when I was hanging out in the patio area behind the house. I would definitely stay here again. It was pretty great and I imagine if there wasn't the traffic close by this would be out of my price range. I easily grabbed a cab from the airport on my way in and emailed Alan (the previously recommended cab driver) for my trip back to the airport. While he is a very sweet man with the best of intentions, I would not call him if I was visiting again alone. I think for certain kinds of visitors (like families who want to do a lot of sightseeing, or couples who would like to have a kind of intense relationship with their cab driver) he would be great. If you are a woman flying solo, or looking for a quiet beach vacation and not out to "see all the sights" it would be great to have another contact for a ride. I would have loved to be able to chat with the driver, enjoy the view, and have occasional sights pointed out to me. I found Alan very aggressive and the ride to the airport was a huge bummer for me after a really sweet, relaxing vacation. While he was driving he was digging around on his phone to show me emails from past customers (as well as their business cards), chastising me for traveling alone, telling me I wasted my trip by not seeing all the tourist traps, all while intermittently telling me how pretty I am and that he'd like to take me out to dinner next time I visited. I almost always enjoy chatting with cab drivers and he made me want to get out of the cab and wait for another taxi.

Stop your search a a AirBnB cause this one is amazing! It has everything you could ever want for a stay in Bermuda. It was super close to the beach which was great. The hosts were some of the best hosts I have ever had. They were nice enough to bring fresh eggs for us from their chickens which was fantastic of them.

I don't know why you would stay anywhere else. This was the best little place and close to the things you need to get through a trip on a budget.
