A $64-million renovation and expansion completed in 2003 refreshed the resort, which attracts families and romantic couples seeking activity-filled vacations or rest and relaxation. Restaurants offer both casual and resort-elegant dining. Expansive grounds complement the panoramic ocean views visible from the resort's hilltop location.
The resort offers 593 guestrooms in a six-story pink resort located on Bermuda's highest hill. Each room includes an ocean-view balcony furnished with a two-chair dining set. White ceilings, crown molding, light-colored wood furniture, and marine-life prints contribute to the Bermuda-pastel ambience. Most bathrooms are lined in pink marble, with outside gray-marble vanities. Down comforters dress triple-sheeted beds. Dressing benches and walk-in closets add convenience. Televisions offer U.S. cable channels. King-bed rooms come with couch and table, double-bed rooms with chair/ottoman and table.

Complimentary trolley buses transport guests to the beach, golf course, and a waterside restaurant and water-sports cove, from where guests can catch a complimentary ferry to downtown Hamilton for shopping and dining.
Amenity highlights: Accessible by complimentary trolley bus from the hotel's hilltop location, the resort's pink-sand beach runs 200 yards beside a turquoise cove protected by offshore reef and rock formations. Lounge chairs offer sunning opportunities; umbrellas provide shade. A casual beachside restaurant and bar serve light meals and tropical drinks. Up the hill at the hotel, large, heated outdoor and indoor pools supply freshwater swimming and additional sunbathing space. The hotel's 30,000-square-foot health-and-beauty spa offers a variety of relaxation and rejuvenation treatments. The resort's boat provides complimentary ferry service to a sister hotel located just 3 blocks from Hamilton's shopping and dining center.
Insider tip: A quarter-mile path leads from the hotel to Bermuda's signature Gibbs Hill Lighthouse, which has an observation platform 185 steps up that overlooks the 22-mile-long island and the turquoise-and-blue Atlantic surrounding it.
Willow Stream, the resort's 30,000-square-foot health-and-beauty spa, features a heated 75-by-30-foot indoor pool under an arched bleached-wood ceiling that's available exclusively to spa patrons for most of the day. (All guests enjoy complimentary access to the pool after 6:30 PM.) Thickly cushioned lounge chairs surround the pool. Soothing music and a triple marble waterfall spilling from a rock garden promote relaxation. Outside the pool enclosure, two large decks—also furnished with cushioned lounge chairs—provide relaxation, panoramic ocean views, and starlit tranquility after dark. Each deck contains a bubbling spa tub for convivial soaking, one accommodating 16 persons, the other eight. Bento-box spa-cuisine meals are served at the pool and in the spa's relaxation areas.
The spa includes men's and women's steam rooms and saunas and an ocean-view air-conditioned fitness center equipped with cardio machines that include television screens, weight machines, and free weights. (Day passes can be purchased for use of the fitness center, steam rooms, saunas, and indoor pool.)
