Cambridge Beaches is delightfully private and the atmosphere is casually elegant. The splendors of nature surround the property with endless water views, beautiful beaches, spectacular sunsets and starry nights. The individually decorated and unique cottage-style accommodations offer privacy and comfort. Cambridge Beaches is a special "high-energy" place where magical things happen. Most come here for a complete escape or to celebrate a special occasion or to find respite from the stress and strain of daily living. Celebrate being together! All our guests receive the gifts of relaxation, inspiration, and rejuvenation. Romance is our specialty.
Just a short walk from Cambridge Beaches along a winding picturesque road is Somerset, a charming little town with shops, a ferry stop and a post office. The entire area is wonderful to explore on foot, by bicycle or moped, to enjoy views of surrounding waterways. For walkers, cyclists and birdwatchers, a visit to the Bermuda Railway Trails is recommended for the stunning views and pastoral tranquility.

| Bermuda is a golfer's paradise and offers excellent golfing weather year-round. Better still, we are a member of every golf course in Bermuda and we would be delighted to make your reservation in advance of arrival. There are currently six 18-hole courses and two 9-hole courses.
We have a special arrangement with the private Mid Ocean Club ? the most exclusive course in Bermuda. Our guests may play Mid Ocean on Monday, Wednesday and Friday; please note that we are only able to confirm tee times at Mid Ocean 24 hours in advance and payment is made directly to the course at the time of play.
Once you have a confirmed reservation, you will receive an entry code, which will allow you to fill out our "Golfing in Bermuda" request form for advance tee times. Golf clubs may be rented at each club for varying prices and lessons are also available. Transportation to the courses is by taxi.
The championship Port Royal, second in ranking to Mid Ocean, is the closest to Cambridge Beaches (only 10 minutes away). There's also a putting green right on our own property and an excellent golf massage at the Ocean Spa that has been known to improve play!
