I started my vacation in Bermuda at a lovely VRBO that flooded the first day of my stay due to heavy rains. Rain was predicted to continue so I decided to move quickly I was a bit disappointed to not be staying on the beach. ||I did a lot of research and it is hard to find something under $500 a night that is on the beach and in good condition. Hamilton was not my first choice but the ability to be in walking distance of restaurants, shopping, groceries, busses and ferries I now believe is the way to go. This lovely place checks all of the boxes. The location in Hamilton is far enough from bustling Front Street but close enough for a quick walk for whatever you may need. The neighborhood is pretty and a quiet business area with a pharmacy across the street and several great restaurants a few blocks away, very nice pedestrian experience.||The rooms are bright, fresh, large and beautifully decorated, comfortable with lovely bathrooms. The bed and linens are a dream. Quiet and very comfortable and include a mini fridge, microwave, coffee machine and air conditioning. Very well appointed and very relaxing. The house itself is stately and beautiful, but remains charming and comfortable at the same time. The gardens around the house are a very nice touch. ||Service was gracious, excellent and friendly, as I found to be the case for Bermuda in general. I was able to leave my luggage and go explore Hamilton before my room was ready. I entered my room to find a perfectly comfortable temperature and my belongings left for me.||I would characterize this lovely little gem as a perfect fit for an active traveler who is interested in experiencing Bermuda in a variety of ways, from getting to know its capital city and it’s residents, walking its neighborhoods, visiting shops, dining out and hopping on a ferry or a bus to spend a day at the beach.||I could not be happier with my stay and will...

Read moreThis was our first trip to Bermuda and we chose to stay at the beautiful Oxford House in Hamilton. We could not have been more delighted by our choice. The staff (Rachael, Tata and Francis ) were warm, welcoming and attentive from the start to the end of our stay. Our rooms were large, well maintained, clean, fresh and cool considering the Bermuda heat. The beds were very comfortable, made up with soft pillows, duvets and cool cotton sheets. Every morning we were greeted by a member of the staff as we sat down either inside the dining room or outside in the pretty English garden to a continental breakfast of yogurt, fruit, eggs, cereal, juices, breads and fresh coffee. We found the location of Oxford House to be ideal for touring on foot. Not only is the area quiet and beautiful it’s also a 5 minute walk to the waterfront where all the shops and restaurants are as well as the bus stop and ferry. Our favourite memory is coming back to The Oxford House, after a full day of touring around Bermuda and sitting down around 5:30 in the garden with a nice glass of wine accompanied by an assortment of cheese and crackers all complimentary. Oh, and if you stayed out in the garden long enough(at dusk) you were serenaded by the “tiny tree frogs”!! |We want to thank the staff Rachael, Tata and Francis for making our stay an enjoyable experience!! Looking forward to returning to Bermuda and staying at The Oxford House!!| ...
