Does anyone have a TR for Bermuda?

Looking into going around Thansgiving weekend with wife & baby. Obviously I know I'd need to bring kosher meals. Is that a big hassle with customs?

What activities are there to do?

How about Rosewood Tucker's Point?

Looks like the newest and nicest place in BDA. Anyone?

This one actually looks like an excellent place to stay, but when I called to book they said they'll be closed from tomorrow January 2'nd until the end of April '18 for renovations.

Nope.  Have to go to a supermarket and search for food

Better off bringing food. Most food products are imported from the US and are expensive.

Bring food. Many attractions are closed during the offseason. It's a pretty small island. They drive on the left side of the street. What else do yowe want to know?

Thinking of taking a 2-3 night trip here to use my Fairmont nights. Hamilton princess or Southampton?
Also only have 2 free nights so if I stay for 3rd I’m not sure if I find a cheaper place or shel out big bucks!

There is kosher milk, creamcheese and yogurt (OU-D) in markets. We took stuff with us. Prices are at least double US. Fairmont Gold lounge has Kosher yogurt (and milk) and Kelloggs cereal . Didn't ask for cream cheese, but all products are US.

I guess I’ll check by breakfast tomorrow.
The bottle of Sam Adams I got had an Israeli label on it. I wonder where they’re shipping it in from..
