Been to Bermuda once before, thinking about going again for a long weekend.  Anybody ever stay by a Fairmont property?  I would love to hear about their experiences.

TIA
I stayed in the princess property in Hamilton but did extensive research on both. Hamilton is more updated with modern infinity pool modern decor.... The Southampton one is more like resort secluded with beach on premises vs. From Hamilton u need to take subtle to their private lagoon. I ended up staying in Hamilton due to availability

I did the same. The advantage of Hamilton is that it is in town where there are shops and most other activities are within walking distance. The downside is that there is no beach there and you need to take a shuttle to the Southampton property to go to their beach club. The grounds at Southampton though are much bigger with a huge golf course on premises.

I stayed at the Southhampton location and loved it. The hotel is nice but a little old. The shuttles to the beach come pretty often and their beach is right near horseshoe beach. Its also 5min ride or 30 min walk to church bay for snorkeling. The advantages of being on the south shore outweighed being near town for us as we didn't do much shopping or dining out.

Southampton needs a shuttle to the beach? I thought Hamilton was the one that needed a shuttle.

When we passed southhampton hotel on the way to the beach from Hamilton, it seemed like the Southampton was a nice walk to the beach club. The property is huge and you would have to pass the golf course, cross the main road and then walk all the way down the path (pretty steep) to the beach.

Been a while since there has been activity on this thread-anybody else realize there is a St. Regis in Bermuda now?  Has it always been there and I just didn't do proper research?

Very nice. They are running a campaign now to raise money for the initial infrastructure. Would be nice if more DDFers gave. I see some of them donated already.

As someone who has benefited immensely (and developed many friendships) with Shluchim worldwide. I’m certain many DDfers feels to same way. As Hkaras Htov I encourage anyone who can to donate to this wonderful cause

Any recommendations for kid-friendly 'kosher' activities in late June. Ages 2-14.
Anyone have a good experience with Norwegian Cruise?
