HOTELS Cambridge Beaches, BERMUDA Perfect for romantic getaways or weddings, the exclusive Cambridge Beaches Resort (www. cambridgebeaches.com) has four private beaches and water views from every guest room, either of the Atlantic Ocean or of tranquil Mangrove Bay. The three Pool Suites (named Bay Grapes, Sunset and North Rock) are the top accommodations at the property and each comes with a private plunge pool and patio (so private and discreet that guests can sun nude if desired). Other perks we loved? The bathrooms have color-therapy spa pools, while the living areas boast Bose surround-sound systems, panoramic Atlantic Ocean views and butler service. Nadia Talevi (441-234-3352), Cambridge Beaches’ romance and proposal concierge, will happily arrange private sunset sails, engagement or anniversary dining experiences and any other romantic escapade. Onsite, the resort’s Tamarisk Room features international and French-infused cuisine. What we loved: At the Tamarisk, and at the two other casual restaurants, fresh seafood and locally sourced fruits and vegetables are customary, and all menus are integrated with Ocean Spa Choices—menu items that come recommended as healthy fare. (Hint: The Bermudian Fish Chowder is particularly delectable. Also of note: the Bermuda wrap of glazed vegetables, roasted garlic, and feta cheese drizzled with sundried-tomato oil, and the Dark & Stormy Belgian chocolate dessert with Bermudian rum pot de crème—not an Ocean Spa Choice, but delicious all the same.) Don’t miss afternoon tea at 4 p.m., served daily in the historic main house. Couples rule at Cambridge Beaches, with beachside candlelit dinners or gourmet picnics available just about anywhere on property. As an added alternative, guests can take advantage of the dine-around program with other Bermuda Collection hotels—an opportunity to exchange dinner at Cambridge Beaches for dinner at other member properties, including The Reefs (www.the reefs.com) and Pompano Beach Club (www.pompanobeachclub. com). Cambridge Beaches takes relaxation seriously. The 10,000square-foot Ocean Spa employs European-trained beauty therapists who serve up therapies in seven treatment rooms.
