Frommer's Review
A bit less stuffy than the cottage colonies listed here, this resort encompasses 7 hectares (17 acres) atop Rose Hill (off York St.). It features clusters of traditionally designed Bermudian one- and two-bedroom cottages. For a family or for two or three couples traveling together and sharing a cottage, the price is reasonable. A shuttle bus takes guests to the beach club at Achilles Bay, about a 2-minute ride away, where the beach is sandy with some rocky outcroppings. The Atlantic waters are a bit turbulent in autumn and spring, but they calm during the summer. The complex functions primarily as a timeshare property; units are rented to the public when the owners are not using them. Cottages have private balconies or patios, comfortable living and dining areas, fully equipped kitchens, and bathrooms with sunken tubs (and showers) and marble vanities. Views are of the ocean, the pool, or the golf course.
The colony's elegant restaurant, Griffin's, is open to the public, and is among the finest dining rooms in the area. Blackbeard's Hideout is also popular.
Note: The St. George Golf Club is currently closed for extensive renovations. However, arrangements have been made for guests staying at St. George's Club to use the course at Riddell's Bay Golf and Country Club.
Facilities: 2 restaurants; 2 bars; 3 freshwater pools (1 heated); 3 all-weather tennis courts (2 lit for night play); watersports equipment/rentals; moped rentals; babysitting upon request; coin-operated laundry; convenience store; nonsmoking rooms; rooms for those w/limited mobility

Frommer's ranks every hotel, restaurant, attraction, shop, and nightlife establishment it reviews for quality, value, service, amenities, and special features using a star-rating scale, an expression of the strong compare-and-contrast opinions that are a brand hallmark.
Other ratings provide stars based primarily on price and amenities; the Frommer's star rating is meant to quantify the kind of intangible, experiential elements that help travelers make informed decisions.
The "baseline" recommendation is zero stars--every hotel, restaurant, attraction, shop, and nightlife establishment that Frommer's chooses to review is recommended; otherwise, we simply wouldn't include it.
