Last Minute Weekend
You’ve been told how close Bermuda is and how easy it is to get to, so you finally hopped over for the perfect long weekend and now that you are here, you’re not quite sure what to do. We get it, and that it exactly why we are here.
You are here and want to make the most of your time, enjoy the spectacular setting, get out on the water, make a local connection, and maybe even relax a little bit.
Here is 72 hours in Bermuda, Winnow style!
Friday ~ Indulge
Remember, you are only here for the weekend, so don’t waste any time getting your trip off to the right start. The summer evenings are long and beautiful, so you will be able to fill your first with a few memorable experiences, starting with an exclusive cocktail cruise around the stunning Harrington Sound in a classical Dyer 29, one of the island’s s most iconic private vessels.
After having taken in the sunset in style with a glass of wine in hand, you can head over to a private chef’s table experience at Marcus’, the brainchild of celebrity chef Marcus Samuelsson and the crown jewel of the Hamilton Princess, one of Bermuda’s finest hotels. As you sit, surrounded by original Warhol’s, you can spoil yourself with island inspired fine dining.
Cap off your perfect first night with a cocktail overlooking Hamilton Harbour at the marina of Hamilton Princess.
Saturday ~ Explore
Your first full day and you are ready to explore and take in as much of the island as you can! Depending on your interests (and energy) this can be done in several different ways. For the more adventurous, one can link up with a local for a full day of ultimate exploration where you will paddle board through mangroves and hidden spots across the island.
Looking to get in some golf but also see the island? Why not golf all the courses on the island? Connect with one of the island’s preeminent golf pros and tee-off at all of the best holes at every one of the island’s world-class courses.
Alternatively, if you can’t decide between spending the day on the beach or taking in the island, why not just do both? A private aerial tour is not only one of the coolest ways to see Bermuda in all its glory, it’s also one of the quickest! In just over an hour, you will be able to explore the whole island from above and still have plenty of time to hang out on the beach.
Cap of the day with relaxing sunset drinks overlooking the water at a private residence and beach followed by dinner in the charming Flatts village.
Sunday ~ Escape
After a day of exploring, maybe you are ready for a little bit of an escape, and what better way to do this than heading out to a private island retreat for the day? Access one of the most exclusive summer getaways and enjoy a moment of privacy and peace with your loved ones as you overlook paradise islands in the comfort of your own little piece of paradise for the day. Equally, a day on the boat picnicking off of the calm waters and pristine beaches of Castle Islands is a favorite escape for locals, and a well kept secret that not many visitors get to experience.
Monday ~ Unwind
If you are lucky enough to be on an afternoon flight, you can take the morning to completely unwind before slipping back into reality, either with a private guided mindfulness session on one of the island’s secluded beaches, or a bit of sunrise yoga by the pool at the island’s newest hotel, the Loren. To make sure you’re truly relaxed for you flight home, why not stop off for a cave massage on your way to the airport. Now you’re ready to depart, enriched and recharged.
