“This all-inclusive Hamilton Parish escape stands out with its private pink-sand beach and relaxed atmosphere, a welcome contrast to busier shores. What truly distinguishes the property is its unexpected subterranean spa, set within Bermuda's stunning cave formations. For families or couples seeking both activity and tranquility, this could be a smart choice.”
