About Chris and Donna

We are a husband and wife who were both involved in the hotel industry in Bermuda for over 20 years. We want you to be our guests and get to know the island we love so much.

Chris and Donna purchased this studio in 2011
Why Chris and Donna chose Bermuda

We bought Rock Sound in 2011 after looking at dozens of homes. As soon as we saw Rock Sound we fell in love with it as it is in a wonderful neighbourhood with amazing views and lots to do nearby. We believe as soon as you see it you will also fall in love.

What makes this studio unique

Rock Sound is literally across the road from the famous Reefs Hotel with its restaurants, bars, beach and spa. Within a mile is the Fairmont Southampton hotel with numerous restaurants, beach, bars, watersports, tennis and golf. But what really makes this a special place to stay is the proximity of beaches, restaurants, Gibbs Hill lighthouse and public transportation. You could not find a place to stay with all of this without paying hotel resort costs!

Sweet Home

If you love Bermuda for the adventure and prefer a quieter home base, this is the place. Donna met us at the door, toting a bottle of wine and a bowl of fruit, gave us a tour of our private grill and outdoor patio with an ocean view, as well as their secluded pool available for our use, and--of course--the studio. She had pre-purchased bus passes for our use (I recommend!) and then it was like we owned the place: no pestering hotel attendants or bumbling tourists to disturb the sounds of wind and waves. The grocery store is an easy trip, The Reefs resort across the way has a couple restaurants, beaches are within a few minutes walk or short bus ride, and the famous Henry VIII's is about a mile and a half up the road (two bus stops away). I'd go on and on but I think you get the idea that this place is fantastic and, as the other reviewer said, I'd happily keep it a secret.

Beautiful island vacation

My husband and I had a wonderful 5 day stay with Donna and Chris. The studio was just as described in the photos and the location was spectacular. Donna was so helpful with the VRBO process and even picked up bus passes for us so we'd have them when we arrived. She also supplied tons of brochures about the island and was very knowledgable about restaurants and attractions nearby. We'd recommend this studio to any vacationer looking for a clean, comfortable, quiet place to call home while in Bermuda.

My husband and I stayed in Donna and Chris's studio for a week in February. They were the most welcoming and accommodating hosts. Donna drove us to the grocery when we arrived, a great help. And the fruit and bottle of wine were much appreciated. The studio was quiet, comfortable, clean and located very near our favorite beach, Church Bay. Our son joined us for the last three days of our visit, staying in the other apartment above ours, which both he and we thought was wonderful in that we were able to spend that much more time together. This was our third visit to Bermuda, a country we have come to love. Our son was also immediately struck by the warmth of not only our hosts, but of all the people we encountered. We will return and hope to have this great accommodation available again.

Perfect hide-away

Traveling to Bermuda for the Bermuda Triangle Challenge: this studio was perfect! The ease of making meals before a race (or after), the proximity to the bus & the location make this an ideal rental for your next vacation! It's a quiet, clean property, beautifully furnished and the view is amazing. Chris & Donna are impeccable hosts - it felt like we stayed with friends - they offered to have bus passes & groceries ready for our arrival.

We traveled the entire island - took the bus to the Dockyard & also to St. George plus the ferry (recommend the ferry from Hamilton to Dockyard - faster than the bus) and had the best time exploring the island & meeting its residents. The picturesque beaches you see photos of everywhere are mostly along the south shore & within a mile or two (a cab driver told us you can walk from one beach to another). The north shore is more rocky (less to no sand to lounge on) but equally gorgeous.

Rock Sound comes highly recommended & I can't wait to stay here again.
