Retreat in paradise
We rented Villa 2 from Diana and it had everything possible to make our trip relaxing and comfortable, a home from home but in paradise. Diana is a wonderful host, nothing was too much and she provided lots of nice touches like organising a taxi to pick us up, the welcome cheese and snack dish, rum swizzle (best on the island!) and also kindly a birthday card and present for me too. The Villa is ideally situated for easy access to bus stops and walking (railway line walk is right next to it). The Villa itself was immaculate and very homely and comfortable with Aircon in all areas too. Very well equipped kitchen but the icing on the cake is the lovely pool area. Would highly recommend this Villa, you won't be disappointed!

Lovely stay
Diana was a lovely host. The property was just the right size for us and had all the facilities we expected. We didn’t realise until after we booked that the photos show two separate units, with the host living in one. This wasn’t a problem, but we weren’t expecting there to be shared space. The location was beautifully quiet, but a little hard to find, even for locals. Otherwise, we had a wonderful stay, which was made all the better when Diana brought out toys for our children to play with. She was a very welcoming and friendly host.

Home away from home.
Very nice house a short walk from the bus stop at Water lot. Diana was very helpful and informative about the island. She stayed in the property and checked in regularly. The house is set up with mostly everything you need! I like to cook and she had all the cooking items one could use and a spice rack. Great find and will definitely would recommend!

Diane the host was marvelous!!!!!!
Both beds were very painful to sleep in, the last 3 nights we slept sideways hoping for a better sleep. Issue was once you laid in an area, it sunk down like a cocoon .

Lovely home away from home
We very much enjoyed our stay at Diana’s beautiful Poolhouse home. Located ideally in Bermuda on the railroad trail and close to the great public transport! Diana was a wonderful host, welcoming, accommodating and wealth of information about the Island! Highly recommend the Poolhouse as a Bermuda getaway you will never forget!

Island retreat
Property was as described-very quiet and in a good location There were adequate utensils etc and amenities were very good. Pool was outstanding. Detailed property description needs to be updated as near-by Southampton Princess Hotel is closed and all stated amenities are not available and/or walkable. Overall, a most enjoyable “Bermudian” experience. as near

Bermuda pool house
Peaceful, tranquil setting in a beautiful secluded garden property with a fantastic pool. Location is excellent with proximity to beaches, restaurants and grocery store. The kitchen is well-equipped for making elaborate meals. There are many extras including beach chairs, snorkeling equipment and surf boards. The house is very comfortable and tastefully decorated, and a pleasure to stay in.

Charming, all across the board
Lovely views, close access to the bus, terrific hosts, comfy living space — this spot was a delight, even given the cooler temps and Covid hassles (many of which were winding up on our last day). We will very likely be back (and we don’t often say that — even for places we’ve adored). Diana made everything so very easy and went out of her way on more than one occasion to make us feel welcome.

Lovely warm friendly stay!
We had a delightful time staying at Diana’s property! She is a marvellous hostess and has thought of everything you could possibly want for your holiday. We stayed in the two-bedroom pool house which is also Diana’s home, so it is warm and welcoming - we felt as though we lived there ourselves, which shows how relaxing it is. There is a shared bathroom upstairs plus a separate toilet downstairs; the living room is spacious and comfortable; the kitchen/diner easily accommodates four to six people. We made good use of the BBQ on the warm summer evenings, and spent a lot of time sunbathing by the pool. Diana had left a welcome cheese platter and some rum swizzle to welcome us on our fist evening, which went down very smoothly! The property is near enough to the Naval Dockyard and to Hamilton for convenience, but is off the beaten track so it is quiet and peaceful. I’d recommend hiring bikes, scooters or Twizys (little electric cars) for your stay, to avoid the restrictions of the bus timetable and the expense of taxis. You can be at the beaches on South Shore within 10 mins, and there’s a supermarket even closer. Several lovely restaurants are nearby. Diana has left a folder with all sorts of ideas for dining, shopping and experiences, so you’re never far from a fun adventure. We would stay here again at the drop of a hat .,

Best place to stay in Bermuda
We found the Bermuda pool house location perfect. The private pool was amazing. The hosts Diana and Jez were accomodating, and very helpful orienting us to the island. They provided us with bus maps, tickets, suggestions for day trips. They also provided us with restaraunt options with accurate reviews. We felt like were visiting old friends during happy hour while enjoying cigars by the pool. We enjoyed the best swissel in the island thanks to Dianas secret family recipe. The pool house was well equipped with all ammenities. Thanks for your warm hospitality. Our family had a very .memorable vacation.
