RUSH HOUR Learning to merge with oncoming joy The Fairmont Southampton, Bermuda Resort Words by Ola Mazzuca Fun, sun and rum - three words to describe Bermuda and three elements that embody a visit to The Fairmont Southampton resort. An upscale experience at that, as “the Southampton” is the biggest resort in the country. Located in the middle of the North Atlantic Ocean and off the east coast of the United States, Bermuda is a group of low-lying islands covered in lush greenery and outlined by beautiful beaches. The country has maintained an old world charm that is encapsulated by rich history. After a brief two-hour flight into Bermuda International Airport, a ferry ride from the capital city of Hamilton to The Fairmont Southampton is a great way to see the island. Upon arrival, Fairmont staff greet you with character that’s as warm as the weather. Their musical and infectious accent is a fine blend of colonial British and a melodic Caribbean tone. For the ultimate girls’ getaway, choose Fairmont Gold. This exclusive access grants you private concierge, honour bar, complimentary hors d’oeuvres, desserts and coffee, and a spacious room with exquisite amenities.
