Question
I've been looking for a hotel property that has a terrace overlooking South Shore Road w/moongate...  don't know if it's closed or changed names or what.  Thinking of returning because of Bermuda's birthday this year. Stopped vacationing there after 32 trips after shopping stopped on Front Street.  are things any better?

Answer
Hi Leonora,

If you could recall the previous hotel you vacationed at I could tell you if it were still there and/or changed names and wether it is under new management.

Gee, what can I say. 32 trips and stopped enjoying Bermuda because of the shopping decline on Front Street.  Wow!  I can tell you that the shopping is not what you enjoyed in your earlier visits and more likely the same as your last visits.  Among others, Trimminghams has shut their doors.  Front Street shows not the same door front as it did only a few short years ago.

If you cared for the beauty of Bermuda, its warmth and lovely beaches, that hasn't changed.  It still enchants first time visitors and beckons a return to many.

Happy Planning!
Michael
