Somerset Village, a small sleepy and picturesque community, was once a busy maritime port that hugs the Mangrove Bay. The water is crystal clear and perfect for a quick dip or you can just enjoy a stroll on the beach. Stroll along the narrow lanes on both sides of Mangrove Bay road and you will see many pastel color houses with wooden balconies, the small stores and the sleepy lifestyle of the islanders.

Exim Guest Apartment, new fully renovated with all amenities, overlooking the turquoise waters and sail boats of Mangrove Bay. Bus stops are in front of the Building on either directions make it very convenience to tour the Island either by Land or Sea. A ferry station at Watford Bridge is just a walk away.

Either strolling, running or biking through beautiful "Railway Trail"

Few steps across the way is 'Somerset Long Bay Beach' which provides a private local experience. The white, sandy beach, swimming near the coast with panoramic view of the northern coast of the island that doesn't usually get packed with beach goers, watch the Beautiful Magical Sunset every evening.

Great location and amazing host! Beautiful views of the water, nestled in the quiet Mangroves Bay. The apartment has everything you need to feel at home. We had an electric car that we were able to plug in with no issues. This is our 2nd time at this location. Across the road is the bus stop for convenience. Love this place and definitely will be back again.

I cannot say enough nice things about the great and friendly hospitality we experienced! Jody, he is the nicest man EVER and was so helpful in so many ways! Kenny, who he recommended to pick us up at the airport, made our 45 min. ride so enjoyable as he discussed a lot of the sights and scenery along the way. Very comfortable space, felt more at home with every passing day. Even had 2 bottles of wine waiting for me, to start my bday! Great location, gym and liquor store, across the street and Cambridge beach resort within walking distance, to rent our scooter. This island is SO BEAUTIFUL!! Looking forward to returning! PG and SP

Awesome week
We had a great time. The location was perfect. It was as described. The only downside was the lack of restaurants in Somerset. We were OK with that because we only have breakfast in our unit which had a full kitchen. It is right across the street from Breezes restaurant at Cambridge Resorts. A great place for dinner and sunsets.

Perfect apartment in Somerset
We spent a week in September in this great apartment in Somerset. Perfect location with dive center close by, the ferries to Hamilton within walking distance and a number of restaurants within minutes on a scooter. Awesome host that helped us out with great tips. And having your morning coffee on the balcony looking out over the bay was a true treat every single day.

The property is gorgeous - a perfect quiet place! Jody is wonderful - friendly and helpful. The location is perfect - right across from a gorgeous bay. However, it's a bit isolated from restaurants and shops so rent a scooter so you can get around!

We thoroughly enjoyed our 13 night stay here. The apartment was beautiful and spacious, bed was very comfortable. Walkable beaches and restaurants close by. We rented an electric vehicle and the parking space with charging station was super convenient. Jody and Cathy were gracious hosts who made sure we had everything we needed.

The owners, Jody and Cathy, are such gracious hosts. They are so welcoming, with giving generous hearts. They, like their home, are beautiful inside and out! They strive to make you feel at home. Their home was beautiful and perfect for three of us. The balcony was great too. The ease of the bus stop was wonderful as it was just steps away. Would love to return. ❤️

About the host

Hosted by Jody Place

Host profile image
We love Somerset Village! Both apartments with balconies, for sipping a glass of wine watching the sunset, are upstairs with its own entrances. We reside in downstairs apartment along with our Electric Bicycle shop. The community is very friendly. Lots to see and do if you enjoy the nature and friendly people :)

Why they chose this property

In a quaint and romantic small Downtown.
We believe you will enjoy our place if you travel for the purpose of promoting health and wellness through physical activities and relaxation including cultural experience. Sandys is the western most Parish. It's named after Sir Edwin Sandys who made large investments to colonize the parish in early 1600s. The parish name is pronounced as 'Sands'. Sandys has five islands that are joined by bridges. The islands are Ireland Island North, Ireland Island South, Boaz Island, Watford Island and the biggest of all, Somerset Island. The Royal Naval Dockyard where most of the cruise ships anchor, is located at Ireland Island North. Being farthest from the congested Hamilton City, the parish provides refreshing piece and serenity that are quickly disappearing in tourist populated Bermuda.

What makes this property unique

To wake up every morning to the Beautiful picturesque blue water, sail boats, coconut trees, etc!

Easy Access with Bermuda Public Transportation System! Least expensive, reliable, safe and convenient way to explore the Island.

Buses and Ferries for Sandys, Bermuda
Bus routes #7 and #8 connect Hamilton City and Sandys. Bus #8 is more frequent than #7 and takes the Middle Road in Sandys through the urban areas, while bus#7 takes mainly the scenic South Road.

There are several ferry stops in Sandys that serve Hamilton City.
1) At the Dockyard - Few Bus Stops from EXIM Guest Apartment
2) At Watford Bridge - Walking distance from EXIM Guest Apartment
3) At Cavello Bay - Walking distance from EXIm Guest Apartment. This is located in Somerset island and is a lovely place. Buses won't go all the way. To reach the ferry stop, take Somerset Road, then Sound View Road and then Scott's Hill Road and go right up to the end.
4) At Somerset Bridge Wharf.
