"Practically synonymous with island life, this iconic—and most trafficked—stretch of pink sand in Southampton Parish is public with no entry fee and easily reached by bus, with drivers quick to tell you when to hop off. It’s so indelibly Bermuda that each July it hosts Beach Fest, the hedonistic blowout that kicks off the Cup Match cricket weekend." - Kat Chen
"The quintessential image of Bermuda, Horseshoe Bay’s peach-pink sand and placid, swim-friendly water drew me in despite crowds—this Southampton Parish beach is iconic, hosts the island’s Beach Fest over Cup Match weekend, and tends to warm up for swimming well before the local tradition of waiting until Bermuda Day on May 24." - Katherine Cusumano, David LaHuta
"Location-wise, it doesn’t get much better: this four-bedroom, 4.5-bath home sits on the grounds of the Fairmont Southampton Hotel overlooking the famous Horseshoe Bay Beach, with access to amenities like a golf course and Boundary, the on-site sports bar and grill. Inside, spacious, well-lit bedrooms each have their own bathroom, and families will appreciate a game room outfitted with a ping-pong table and board games; outside, a wraparound deck gazes at the sea, best enjoyed from the large pool or hot tub. I’m here for the combination of resort perks and private-home comfort." - Kristin Braswell
