My husband and I stayed at Robins Nest from the 13th- 20th July 2008 and we had a brilliant time. We had a warm welcome off Renee as soon as we arrived (after our taxi getting lost and having to phone, she was waiting for us on the drive). We asked Renee where the nearest supermarket was, and when she realised we would be walking she said there’s no way we were walking and she’d take us there, and an hour later we were in her car (and it was only a 10-15 minute walk away).
Our apartment was lovely, most importantly it was clean, and really nice and spacious. There was plenty of storage space, with a well equipped kitchen and a lovely balcony with distant views of the sea. There’s a lovely pool, which very rarely had anybody in it, and the whole place just seemed friendly.
If you don’t mind a walk, then its within easy walking distance of Hamilton, it took us about 25 minutes. The only downside to the walk is there’s no pavements for most of the way, and it’s a narrow road which is reasonably busy (well, for Bermuda anyway!). We hired a scooter from Oleanders for the week (after a failed attempt for them to find Robins nest, even though they deliver there all the time, we picked one up from Hamilton) and it’s a great base to see the island.
We really loved Robins Nest, and it was at a good price, especially for how lovely it was. We’d definitely go back, and would recommend it to anybody wanting a relaxed, slightly off the beaten track, safe place to stay with lovely hosts who leave you to get on with your stay but are there if you need them for anything.
