Stunning views

This apartment has absolutely stunning views. The apartment is large so the 6 of us had lots of space.We had a few small problems that John had sorted with in a day, he was so helpful and nothing was to much trouble. The only down side was the aircon in the upstairs bedroom wasn’t working. John had fitted one in the window but it was too loud to use at night so the room was unbearable hot.. once this is sorted it will a lovely bedroom with sea views.Also the rope ladder going down to the water isn’t there as it’s rotten, it wasn’t a problem for the rest of my family but I found it to difficult to get out of the water which was a shame.You could see fish and we also saw a couple of turtles from the apartment balcony which was just amazing.It’s an amazing property and it’s just stunning….Bus stops are outside for both directions which is so handy.Well worth a stay.

Awesome View

The house had a great view, was comfortable, in a great area. We always felt safe. Bus stop in front of the shop was perfect, but was actually in the road. We waited for the bus in a driveway near the stop.This is an older house and right on the water causing it to need a lot of maintenance. I enjoyed it, but in all honesty it needed some love and attention. I was decorating it in my mind.

Golf Trip Stay

This property has a stunning location, with beautiful ocean views. Although the outside patio area was vast and allowed for enjoyment of the view, the downside was that there was debris and construction items scattered around. Also, the property was in a state of disrepair and looked neglected.Inside the home was no better, with old furnishings and decorations that seemed to be cobbled together haphazardly. The refrigerator was leaking water on the floor, and the kitchen sink had no hot water. Best thing about this property is clearly the ocean setting and view.

Amazing views of ocean and sea life. But, the house requires substantial repair and upgrades. Refrigerator leaks, initially no hot water in kitchen. The hot water was addressed within 3 days but water pressure in kitchen was extremely low. Owner noted this and said it would be addressed but it was not. Dishwasher was dirty and so was not used. Water pressure and hot water in bathrooms was good. Lots of bugs (roaches) despite spraying every day. Furniture throughout the house was very worn (torn upholstery, loose legs on coffee tables, dresser draws did not work). Area around house seems as if there is ongoing construction so significant debris - not safe for children.

Perfect location and amazing views!

The views were amazing, the location was perfect and John (owner) was wonderful! He even offered to take us to the grocery store shortly after we arrived. Not to mention delicious food at The Flame restaurant (John runs) connected to the home was perfect after a long day of traveling or sight seeing.

You can not beat the location of this property. We loved being on the water and were out snorkeling almost every day. The views of the water were incredible. Close to Flatts Village. Keep in mind that this is a traditional Bermudian home, not modern but spaceous, clean and pleasantly decorated. Owner is very kind and tried his best to ensure we enjoyed our stay.

John was a wonderful host and very helpful. The house is in a beautiful location right on the water. The bus stop across the street was very convenient. The only complaint is that the house needs some TLC. Some light bulbs were out. There was some rust on appliances, in the bathrooms and on the outdoor furniture.

Phenomenal location in a big house

You can walk down a few stairs and get into the crystal-clear water and see a ton of sea life only feet from the front door. Bring your snorkeling gear. There are bus stops right by the house and an incredibly tasty restaurant literally next door, so the location is pretty convenient. It's in a quiet area, but it's not far from Hamilton. There's a full kitchen, laundry, 3 big bedrooms, and two bathrooms. The house needs a *little* work outside, but John the owner knows this and is working on a ton of stuff. Great for a small group of people. Eat in the large dining room, outside on the porch overlooking the water - your choice!

Can't wait to go back!!

My wife and I stayed here four nights celebrating our 15 yr anniversary. I can't say enough about how nice and accommodating Jennifer was and how beautiful the views are. After arranging a ride for us from the airport to the house, Jennifer drive us in her personal vehicle to the Twizy agency so we could rent an electric car. She even got up early one morning to make us lunch to take on our offshore fishing trip!! The Bermuda fish sandwich at Flame is amazing! Everyone on the island seemed to know the Seymours. Bermuda is a wonderful place and staying here made it even better. We are already planning a return trip. Lenny and Nancy Piech

Warm hospitality, gorgeous setting and relaxation

Just returned from a wonderful 6 day vacation at Jennifer and Greg's lovely house. My husband and I wanted to find a place to take our mothers that would be homey, comfortable, easy for them to navigate (one is 92, can walk very short distances and uses a cane) as well as on the water and gorgeous. A tall order but Jennifer and Greg and their beautiful home delivered that and more. Other reviews have spoken of the wonderful features of the house, and the hosts' amazing hospitality and Jennifer's cooking (delicious! - we had two excellent dinners on our deck, thanks to her) - and I ditto all of that. They went out of their way to make our stay as enjoyable as possible - including inviting us to share in their holiday festivities. All around big thumbs up!!

Beautiful accommodations!

I missed the view of this place as soon as I got in the taxi to take me to the airport! The view by itself was worth every penny. The house was nice - the pictures do not do it justice! Jen was awesome - she set up taxi rides to and from the airport for us, gave us a ride to the city, and helped with suggestions on things to do and how to get there. We'd definitely stay again! For the next traveler I'd suggest bringing some of your own essentials. Prices in Bermuda are steep, so bring along soap, dishwasher detergent, etc. that aren't included with your rental. Also, if you plan on cooking bring what you can as well! Pancake mix, spaghetti noodles, rice, and dry snacks are all things you could pack pretty easily and enjoy during your stay without having to pay 3x what you may be used to.

Beautiful, comfortable and cozy property perfectly situated for exploring Bermuda

We loved visiting Bermuda! Jennifer and Greg's property at Where the Waters Walk is situated mid-island with bus stops very close by (one is right across the street). The house is designed to let the outside in so wherever you look, you see the ocean. There is a comfortable porch area to eat at while watching the ferry (and cruise ships) cross in front of you. Jennifer and Greg went out of their way to help us have the best vacation; giving us a ride to the grocery store the day we arrived and connecting us with a good taxi service to get to and from the airport (which is about 15 minutes away). We also ate several meals at their attached cafe which was a nice thing to have available after a long day of beaching or sightseeing. The property is quiet and secure. We were 4 women and we felt comfortable there. I have already recommended this property to someone else and we only left yesterday! Thanks, Jennifer and Greg, for being such great hosts!

Bermuda vacation

Nice vacation. Home was clean. It is older and needs some work. Roof in dining room leaked during heavy rain two days. Air conditioner I. Upstairs bedroom and living room did not work. I was also disappointed because the ladder shown in the listing to get out of the water by the rocks after snorkeling is no longer there. This, along with rough weather on some days, made it impossible for us to snorkel on the property and we had really looked forward to that. We also had a rat run past us on the patio one evening, which made us make sure all doors were closed when we were on the patio after that. John, the property owner, is very nice. Bermuda is amazing and the property, on the whole, worked well for us. We rented Tazzaris, small electric cars, which made accessing all parts of the island easy. It was a fun vacation.

Beautiful views, gracious hosts

We returned home this afternoon following a 5 night stay at this home. The owners, Jennifer and Greg were around and available, but not at all intrusive. They made us and our two young sons feel at home the moment we arrived. Jen always had extra bread for the boys to feed the large schools of fish below. We fished (and caught a little) from the rocks below. The water was a little rough for my 4 and 6 year old sons to snorkel, but I did and the coral and fish were worth the effort. The kids could easily get from the house down to the rocks on the water. We saw turtles from the patio and enjoyed watching the cruise ships pass by. Stunning views of each end of the island. Was so nice to have someone around to offer advice on our daily adventures, a few days Jen even gave us rides where we wanted to go. We walked the railway trail to Gibbots Bay and the other direction to the golf course. The trail runs just up the hill from the house. The bus stop is right there as well and we were always able to quickly catch a cab as needed. Great views, great hosts. Very much worth the visit.

Nice but very old and outside patio area needed cleaned up

Nice convenient property however the inside of the home needs updated! Furniture was old and saggy. Beds were not the most comfortable. I stripped the beds of all sheets, mattress cover and bedspread b/c all needed washed. The cleaner put the dirty mattress covers and bedspreads back on the beds. Home smelled bad. 2 roaches were running around the kitchen and saw a roach on the back patio. I did kill the roaches and I left one on a paper towel on the kitchen counter for the property manager to see. Coffee pot was dirty and the heat plate was caked with old coffee and grounds. Outside area in front and in back was dirty and messy. This could be an outstanding property with some "elbow grease" and new furnishing. This could be a 5 star property with some "elbow grease". A restaurant is opening on the side of the home which is attached. This will add a cooking smell to the property as well as patrons will be using the same back patio area as the ABNB guests. The ABNB online site stated that there were 2 bicycles for use. We did not see these however we would not have used them. The roads on the entire island are too dangerous to ride a bicycle on.

A week in Paradise!

Where the Waters Walk is a little piece of heaven. Six of us stayed here for a week. The home is just as described and comfortably housed the six of us during our stay. Beds were comfortable, kitchen well stocked, and the huge picture window in the living room brought us beautiful sunsets over the water. Jen and Greg are the best hosts we have ever experienced in a VRBO. From the first communication they went above and beyond. Setting up our taxi from the airport, making dinner reservations once we arrived, sending over fishcakes and hot cross buns for a traditional Bermuda easter feast, serenading us for our birthdays and even providing us with entertainment during dinner when we ate in. The whole family is very musical and have talent! Jen and Greg even brought two of us to their Church's Sunrise Service on Easter Sunday. The location is great. The home is right on the water and there are flat rocks to sun, fish, or swim off. Bring water shoes - they are necessary!! There is a walking trail just across the street and up a hill. There is a bus stop close by but we found taxis to be our best mode of transportation. They are plentiful. There is much to see and do in Bermuda. Hamilton has great restaurants and shops, the beaches are fantastic (our favorites were Horseshoe and Warwick Long Beach). I would highly recommend this as a vacation destination and it is just a lovely home to stay in. All six of us were in agreement - one of the best vacations we have ever had!! Thank you Jen, Greg and John for making us feel at home.

Could be great!

For our group (2 couples) this property fell short in many respects, although to be honest, we enjoyed our stay. I was surprised that the owner (John) did not initially acknowledge our booking with a greeting. The location was fine for us. We had independent mobility with mopeds but also sometimes took the bus (bus stop very near). The restaurant that is located on the property is closed. On arrival, there was no power to the upstairs rooms but I found the circuit breaker and reset it. It tripped several more times during our stay. Numerous electrical outlets and light switches did not function and light bulbs were burned out. We did a major clean of the kitchen. The dishwasher isn't secured into the cabinetry and there was no detergent. The first meal we cooked was problematic. Here are items missing from the kitchen: a good sharp knife, a potato peeler, a wooden spoon, non-stick pan, measuring cup, dish soap. A toaster!! There were no hand towels and no bath mats. The upstairs tub/shower is treacherous and needs some form of slip mitigation. In short, the place is poorly maintained and poorly equipped. You would have to be brave to try to access the ocean from out front. Some would be bothered by the traffic noise. The view and the proximity to the ocean, however, is great. So is the privacy. With the addition of taxes and junk fees, the nightly cost of about $660 is dear. With some effort, this property could be really great!

A delightful North Shore experience

My wife and I stayed here for the first portion of our trip, celebrating our wedding anniversary. We first were on the North Shore and then the South Shore. Mopeds are absolutely essential in our opinion, if you can safely drive them, for any trip to Bermuda (we saw the entire Island in one week with plenty of time at the beach and to enjoy delicious dinners!). We checked into our room, had a Moped delivered, and made it into Hamilton (FYI Harbor night is Wednesday night on Front Street!) within two hours of landing at the airport. The owners run a restaurant, the Flame, right on the property, which has an amazing view of sunsets and the northern waters. The food was some of the best we had during our whole trip, and we ate at some of the top rated restaurants (the Swizzle, Four Ways, Coconuts at the Reefs, and Frog and Onion). Shelly Bay beach is a short scoot away for easy access. The Cooper's Island Nature reserve beaches (very private - a must visit) and the historic town of St. George's are easily accessible from this location. We went to both later in the week and had to spend nearly 2 hours getting there from our South Shore location. The apartment itself was very clean, comfortable and provided a pleasant location to sit back and read. The bedroom is simple and clean. The owners are delightful people and were generous to give us advice on how to navigate the island. Much of our planning happened once we arrived after talking to the owners and some other Bermudians eating at the restaurant. I cannot emphasize enough the welcoming nature of the owners, their generosity and hospitality. This place will be different than some South Shore properties, in that there are more close beaches to choose from on the Southern Shore, but with the right mode of transportation many of the South Shore beaches are actually accesible from this location, especially the beaches in Smith's and Paget Parishes. You might want to make it over to the East end of the island, so take the Ferry from Hamilton (you can ride the moped right on it). If you are looking for a North Shore property for a good rate, we can endorse this one based on our lovely experience.
