Bermuda

Historic St. George, Hamilton shopping, pink-sand beaches, top-notch dining, superb sailing & fishing...this still largely genteel island apart out in the Atlantic (not the Caribbean!) is a marvelous little world apart.

The top 8 musts in gracious, beautiful Bermuda

Craig Stanfill A British Overseas Territory with a land area of just 21 square miles – the size of a middling city anywhere in the world – and a population of 73,000, Bermuda is named after its original discoverer, Spanish explorer Juan de Bermúdez. It has been settled for 412 years and has been a popular tourist destination – especially for those in the United States, for whom it´s a flight of just over two hours from the East Coast – since the 1880´s, when the Hamilton Hotel (now the…

Bermuda Tourism Authority launches agreement with Airbnb

This year Airbnb entered into a partnership with the Bermuda Tourism Authority that involves marketing and the exchange of fees. Remarkable, because Bermuda is nothing if not an upmarket destination. What's more, Airbnb has now signed memorandums of understanding with a dozen or so Caribbean islands, creating a new era of cooperation between the governments and this company, which not so long ago was frequently accused of tax evasion. read post

Ooh John! You must really abhor Chuck E. Cheese.

With all due respect to Bermuda -- I've been there and loved it -- I think that's an outrageous statement. There are spectacular places in the Caribbean that rival or surpass Bermuda. For starters, Bermuda isn't even tropical. As much as I love the place where my parents honeymooned (they really did!), I'll take some islands in the Caribbean ANY DAY over Bermuda.

We all have preferences, but to call the Caribbean Chuck E. Cheese is just not right.

I put Caribbean first & Bermuda second, then I put Chuck E. Cheese first & Spago second. The style convention is to compare the first to the first, the second to the second. Like saying, "My aunt & uncle, Mary & John, will be at the party." Caribbean is Chuck E. Cheese, Bermuda is Spago.

But which is Spago and which is Chuck E. Cheese?

You can't compare any destination in the Caribbean with Bermuda. It's like comparing Chuck E. Cheese with Spago. Bermuda has a completely different vibe than anywhere in the Caribbean.

Last week I read Tripatini's blog about cruise deals out of Ft Lauderdale & Miami. Today I read that NYC-Bermuda cruises are full up. Why would NYC-Bermuda be so much more appealing than, say, Ft Lauderdale - Caribbean?
