C06: Horizon Pool Apartment


Over 40 different properties arranged in three areas: CENTRAL, WEST and EAST sections

Rent privately owned villas, cottages and apartments or rooms in small hotels anywhere on the island. Fully equipped and furnished, all units have pretty gardens. Some are on the water; others have pools or ocean views and all enjoy pretty gardens. Prices start from $55US for single occupancy to $200US double-occupancy with no extra charges in private rentals. Small hotels charge the government tax required on all commercial establishments. A tip for the maid is not included with in the price we charge you: recognizing good service is always a kindness.

We thank you for your inquiry about the various properties we represent in Bermuda. It is important to note that each apartment or cottage is primarily used to entertain the visiting family or friends of the homeowner, and is made available for rent to visitors from overseas only when not otherwise required. Consequently, these units are not promoted in the travel industry, as there are usually no more than one unit per home. Each cottage or apartment is self-contained with a private entrance, bathroom and a private lounging area outdoors to ensure your privacy- and that of the home owner. Most suites contain proper cooking facilities (most have barbecues, also), have access to laundry machines for stays of more than a week, contain private bathrooms and all the equipment (telephones, irons, radios, TV) that one would expect in a home away from home. Best of all, the cottages promote a feeling of peace and solitude... The nightlife is there if you want it, but your home is in a tranquil neighborhood.
I have chosen residences that are in elegant, prosperous neighborhoods with either easy access to the ocean or the use of a swimming pool. Most have wonderful views as well, and all are located in attractive gardens. Clients who have had the pleasure of staying in the suites have offered to give personal recommendations and we will forward those to you upon request. There is a three night minimum stay for most locations, and some require 5 days to a week: we will advise you of the requirements when the reservation is made. Prices are subject to change without notice, but we do all we can to honor the prices in effect when a booking commences. In some instances, a child can be accommodated for an additional charge.
You need to be aware that stays longer than 21 days do require permission from Immigration authorities. The Immigration Departments telephone number in North America is 1-800-223-6106 for information..

I look forward to helping you arrange a comfortable, affordable holiday as the guests of Bermudians for whom warm hospitality is a way of life.

Handicapped friendly rental property: Please consider Central 13, East-end E07 or West-end W05.

Electricity Costs In Bermuda

The Royal Gazette: August 2007 : "Electricity costs are set to soar after the Fuel Adjustment Rate peaked above ten cents for the first time ..... Residents face a two percent increase in their bills for September after the Fuel Adjustment Charge reached 30 percent - up from 28 percent in August. Ms Smith of Belco (Bermuda Electricity Company) said: "At the moment Belco is paying between $89.17 and $109.85 per barrel and as a result, the Fuel Adjustment Charge is at its highest level ever of 10.2 cents per kilowatt hour, which currently accounts for approximately 30 percent of the total bill."
She added that this charge is used by utility companies around the world to adjust bills according to fluctuations in fuel prices, and that Belco does not profit from it. The charge is reviewed by the Price Control Commission. Since June 2005, it has almost doubled, from 5.3 cents per kilowatt hour."

Currently, Bermuda's power costs are 3.3 times more expensive than electricity costs in the USA. When staying on the island, conserving power is a very important consideration because keeping those costs down permits us to offer accommodations at a more reasonable rate.

Please TURN OFF AC/HEAT AND LIGHTS when going out.

It will only take a few minutes to restore comfort levels upon your return. And conserve water too: its collected from rainwater and stored in huge tanks under the homes. Its a very finite resource and very expensive to purchase if the homeowner runs out. Don't let taps run,  or toilets run on. Its just the way we live on our island paradise!
