About Chris and Donna
We are a husband and wife who were both involved in the hotel industry in Bermuda for over 20 years. We want you to be our guests and get to know the island we love so much.
Chris and Donna purchased this Studio in 2011
Why Chris and Donna chose Southampton
We bought Rock Sound in 2010 after looking at dozens of homes. As soon as we saw Rock Sound we fell in love with it as it is in a wonderful neighbourhood with amazing views and lots to do nearby.
What makes this Studio unique
Rock Sound is literally across the road from the famous Reefs Hotel with its restaurants, bars, beach and spa. Within a mile is the Fairmont Southampton hotel with numerous restaurants, beach, bars, water sports, tennis and golf. But what really makes this a special place to stay is the proximity of beaches, restaurants, Gibbs Hill lighthouse and public transportation. You could not find a place to stay with all of this without paying hotel resort costs!

Fantastic Property!
This was a great place for my husband and I! Donna made sure everything was easy from booking a taxi for us upon arrival, making sure we had some starter groceries, to getting us some bus passes ahead of time and having them waiting for us. Exploring the nearby beaches and restaurants was a breeze and we loved everywhere we went! We can't wait to come back in the spring/summer!
Tranquility
We had a fantastic stay. Donna and Chris were wonderful hosts. The apartment is located within easy access to many beaches. The nearby bus stop was very convenient for traveling the island. Sitting by the pool in the afternoon was very relaxing. We hope to return soon. Thank you Donna & Chris.
Comfortable accommodation with lovely view.
We loved our week at Rock Sound. Gracious hosts, comfortable accommodation, and great location.
True Bermudian Hospitality
Let me start by saying that every time you step out the front door, you have a view of the ocean. Every morning, you can take a coffee outside and watch the sunrise over the ocean. It's the perfect way to start your day on a tropical island. The apartment has plenty of room, with a fully functioning kitchen, a large shower, and more than enough room for clothes, shopping, and all the rum cake you can buy (and you should buy some!)
Chris and Donna were wonderful and were kind enough to get groceries and bus passes for us on request. This saved us a lot of time and made commuting around the island easier since there's a bus stop at the bottom of the driveway. It's only a few buss stops away from Horseshoe Bay, one of the most beautiful beaches in the world. They have brochures of different things to do on the island and made our trip to Bermuda as wonderful as the island itself. We loved every second of it. Thanks, Chris and Donna!
Nice property close to beaches and good restaurants
Donna and Chris are very good hosts. Easy walk to snorkeling beach (Church Bay) and two stop bus ride to world famous Horseshoe Bay Beach. Large swimming pool and nice views make this VRBO a good choice if you want to be near the South Shore beaches.
Beautiful property.
Beautiful property, wonderful view , great location which was convenient to transportation (buses). All the comforts of home.
