Client Spotlight: Bermuda

With its balmy weather, pink sand beaches and scenic coastline, it is little wonder

Bermuda is called the jewel of the Atlantic. A rich fusion of colonial history and island

heritage offers an escape like no other!

It seems Bermuda is an often forgotten island getaway, which is surprising, since it is so

easy to get to from the eastern seaboard. It is less than a 3 hour flight from Atlanta, and

with an island only 20 miles long, it’s a quick drive from the airport to your hotel.

Bermuda has similar weather to North Carolina, so it is best visited between April-

October.

Bermuda is Britain’s oldest colony and the influence can still be seen. It is not

uncommon to see a Bermudian judge walking through the capital of Hamilton in a

powdered wig, see a bobby directing traffic, or overhear a passionate conversation

about a cricket match.

The town of St. George is deemed a Unesco World Heritage, and definitely worth

seeing. The town was founded in 1612 and is a remarkable example of an early

English urban settlement in the New World.

Harvey and Elise Crouch, of Princeton Hills, chose Bermuda for their family vacation

this summer and they were extremely pleased with their choice. While they were

looking forward to visiting the island, they felt this destination over delivered and

exceeded their expectations. Elise said,“The whole island was absolutely beautiful, and

the kindness we experienced from all of the locals was really amazing.” 

Harvey and Elise took their children, William, Ellen, Jennifer, and their son-in-law, John.

The Crouch children range in age from 20-28, and they agree it is a fun destination for

parents and young adults.

The Crouch family decided on calling the Rosewood their home for their stay in

Bermuda. It is boasted that the Rosewood is a destination in itself, sitting on 240 acres

of manicured grounds, neighboring the estates of Tucker’s Town and its championship

golf course. While the resort is expansive, it is still intimate, as there are only 92 rooms

and suites in the resort.

You can explore by golf cart, scooter or take a short trolley ride to the hotel’s private

pink sand beach. Jennifer said, “I loved having access to the beach club. Having the

pink sand right on property with food, drinks and such a small crowd was amazing.”

The Rosewood has the largest private pink sand beach in Bermuda.
