About this property
'Panatola' Studio with Breathtaking Views - Close to beach
Private Studio Apartment with breathtaking views. Fully furnished with all the amenities you need for a relaxing vacation. Walking distance to main Bermuda attractions.
Located on a hill with simply breathtaking views of Jews Bay. The studio is part of a large house with a separate entrance.
The studio is prettily furnished with a spacious queen-size bed, a love seat and a dining table. There are further amenities including a flat TV with cable vision, DVD, local prepaid phone and WiFi. For your comfort there is heating, air conditioning and ceiling fan. There are no laundry machines but for guests staying for more than 3 days we offer laundry service. The bath facilities are a shower, sink and toilet arrangement. Within the closet is everything else you might need such as an iron, hair dryer, towels, soaps, a cooler bag, beach chairs and beach towels.
The kitchen is fully equipped with china and glasses plus a toaster, kettle, coffee maker, microwave oven, electric stove and fridge with a freezer. There is a small charcoal barbecue to enjoy outside while looking at the wonderful view and having a drink in the outdoor sitting area.
Guest Access
Located within walking distance of the pink and silver sands of Horseshoe Bay Beach and Church Bay, the Gibbs Hill Lighthouse, the Railway Trail, many restaurants. There are four golf courses nearby for you to play: the Fairmont Princess Golf Club (walking distance), Riddell’s Bay, The Belmont Golf Course, and the Port Royal Golf Course are all within 15 minutes of the property by moped and each offers its own unique challenge.
Interaction with Guests
Will be here to greet you and assist you with any questions you might have.
The Neighborhood
Very safe neighborhood. A Southampton location is considered to be a very attractive option for visitors in the know. Although the locations in the closest proximity to the beaches of the South Shore tend to be in the most demand, the 22 mile length of the island and its width of less than a mile in most places means that access to those beaches is easy by bus or by moped and that’s only after you have savored the pretty beaches in the immediate area.
You will have the pleasure of exploring the spectacular beaches along the southern coastline: The stunning Church Bay offer wonderful South Shore snorkeling opportunities as well as pink, shell strewn beaches to explore (the famous ones such as Horseshoe Bay and Warwick Long Bay are renowned, but you will not want to miss the stunning trio of secret coves tucked between those two larger beaches- Chaplin Bay, Stonehole Bay and Jobson’s Cove. These three are the last word in romantic pink sand and gentle surf in splendid seclusion. Snorkeling equipment can be rented at Church Bay and several of the larger beaches such as Horseshoe).
Getting around
Public transportation stops are a 10 minute walk. For vacationers wanting to rent scooters or bicycles, you can get them within 10 minutes walk of the property at Smatt's Rental located in the Southampton Princess property or Oleander cycles on South Shore Road.
Other Things to Note
Closer than Hamilton for fine dining are the excellent facilities of The Reefs Resort in Southampton: their open-air Coconuts restaurant overlooking their private silvery sand beach will arrange a table on the beach with candles, full linens and silverware and delectable meal for your never-to-be-forgotten evening celebration. Also The Waterlot Inn at the Southampton Princess Hotel and The Dining Room in the Lighthouse. For more casual dining we have Henry VII restaurant and bar and Ocean Club down on the beach of the Southampton Princess Hotel and many more restaurants.

Silvia is an amazing host! The studio was perfect for us, well equipped, beautiful view and perfect location (walking distance to a few restaurants and beaches). Easy access to the bus stops and rental place if you prefer to rent a scooter/bike/car.
Silvia was a wonderful host, both before and during our stay. She answered all our questions and even arranged a cab to and from the airport. The studio was lovely with all our needs anticipated, even a towel warmer to deal with Bermuda’s constant high humidity.

A delightful apartment with local character, lovely views in the middle of a beautiful island. The host was very welcoming and helpful. Would recommend.
Gray accommodations; Wonderful hosts and central location
It was great to be back in Bermuda and I was super happy with Panatola. It’s a great studio and close to everything. I rented a scooter which made it super convenient but it’s very close to the bus routes if you’re on foot. I would definitely stay here again
Silvia was an amazing host. The studio couldn’t have been any nicer and near all of Bermuda’s main attractions. Horseshoe Bay was just minutes away! Highly recommend if you need the perfect little place to stay with incredible views. Thank you Silvia!

The property was private and quite. The views were nice. It was about a 20 minute walk to the beach. There was a hotel nearby where you can have a meal. Taxi service was a phone call away.
My wife and I had wonderful time at Panatola and Sylvia was a great host. Bermuda is such a wonderful island and everyone is so friendly. The unit was clean and looked exactly like the pictures. Great times sitting outside at night. Easy walk to the beaches and Railway Trail. Thank you!

As a frequent traveler I've stayed at all the hotels and resorts and like to stay at local places to get a better experience of the local cultures. Thus property was just that. Clean, safe, within walking distance of beaches, grocery and restaurants. Sylvia the hostess was very friendly and helpful.
The property had beautiful views and was relaxing. I thoroughly enjoyed my stay and would sray ther again.
Great week. We choose home up on hill for better view. Close to the popular beaches. Also food market quick ride. Of course restaurants also.
This is our 4th visit to Bermuda, first VRBO and
will definitely contact Silvia at Panatola Studio when we are able to come back again.

We were there from Tuesday, Apr 30 through Wed., May 8. Silvia, the owner, was very helpful and pleasant. Location near a bus stop and the Fairmont Southampton hotel was big plus. Also more than a few good restaurants were within walking distance. Private location, great view.
Although I had been to Bermuda on two other occasions this romantic golf vacation exceeded my expectations by far. Staying at Hotel Silvia at Panatola along with our rented Yoyo electric car were the threads that tied all our great experiences together. The studio in Southampton Parish was the perfect location for easy access to golf courses, beaches and restaurants. Best of all it was quiet solitude. We were not sad leaving Bermuda after 6 days because we began planning out next trip to Bermuda staying at Silvia's Hotel.

Great Studio, Perfect Location
My wife and I stayed at Panatola Studio for our 10th anniversary. We have been to Bermuda several times and wanted a place that was close to the beaches (Horseshoe Bay & Elbow Beach) and our favorite restaurants (Waterlot and Coconuts). This location was perfect! Not only was it close to all these places, but we could walk to Southampton Fairmont for late night drinks and breakfast. The place itself was very clean and had great views of the ocean. Highly recommend!

perfect island getaway
We absolutely loved this place. Tucked away enough to be private and feel secluded, but easily within walking distance of public transit, a variety of restaurants, and the Gibbs Lighthouse. The unit itself is adorable. Kept very clean and with plenty of room to relax in those moments you want to chill before heading out again. Silvia was wonderfully hospitable and made us feel very welcome. I recommend this place 100% and will make it my first choice the next time we head to Bermuda!
This was our second time staying here. We had another wonderful time! It’s such a pretty walk to Horseshoe Bay and a bus stop is close to get anywhere you want to go. When our taxi was running late to go home, Silvia’s husband brought us to the airport with their sweet dog Lola in tow. Thank you so much!

Perfect stay in Bermuda (late March - early April)
My girlfriend and I stayed at Silvia's relaxing and cozy apartment for a week beginning at the end of March and completely loved it. The apartment is truly even better than the pictures convey, with a spacious bathroom, full kitchen, and wonderful water views from just outside of your door. We opted not to rent scooters, but found it a breeze to walk to Horseshoe Bay as well as a handful of restaurants (the Dining Room at the lighthouse was our favorite). We would absolutely 100% stay at Silvia's place again. Our highest recommendation!

Great locations
We stayed here for 5 nights in early May. We wanted to stay near Horseshoe Bay Beach and this was as close as we could get for a very reasonable price. This is an efficiency apartment connected to the owners home. It has a private entrance and you have all the privacy you want. It is high up a hill so you get a beautiful view of Great Sound. It’s located right between south and middle road so just 5 to 10 minutes from a bus stop. About a 20 minute walk from Horseshoe Beach. 5 to 10 minutes from several nice restaurants. Closest is Boundaries at the South Hampton Princess Golf course. Ate there twice because it was delicious and the closest walk. The unit has a kitchen that is good for making breakfasts and lunch. I wouldn’t try a full scale dinner. Fridge/freezer quite small so you cant fit too much food at one time. Sylvia had orange juice and coffee cream stocked and there are a few basic condiments and spices so check before you make a trip to the market. Plenty of towels for 2 people for the week which you will go through as towels don’t dry well in the high humidity. Also 4 beach towels provided. Unit was clean. This is not your high end luxury condo but very adequate for the time you spend there. We were out exploring everyday and averaged walking 5 miles a day. I would highly recommend reserving and renting a twizzy car (at the South Hampton Princess) it was a great way to explore the island if scooters aren’t for you. I would definitely recommend staying here.

Great House in Southampton - Close to Beaches
I booked this place at the very last minute, and Silivia was very accommodating and responsive from the very beginning. Within minutes, the place was confirmed for my stay.
When I arrived at the place, I happen to pull up the driveway just when Silivia got there, so I was warmly greeted. She showed me into the space, and it was perfect for a relaxing few days.
The house is situated atop a hill in a neighborhood in Southampton, and it's a quick ride to a few restaurants, grocery store, and more importantly the beaches. By the front door, there are two chairs that overlook the Great Sound, and you can see cruise ships docked at the Dockyard. Also outside is a small grill if you wish to cook here.
Inside, the place is very clean and has all the amenities of a small apartment. There's a small dining table with two chairs, a couch, and a TV. The bed is very comfortable, and there is also air conditioning if it gets too warm. The kitchen is fully equipped with plates, pots, pans, silverware, and dishes. I also liked the small touches of having milk and orange juice in the refrigerator! There is also a coffee maker, stove, and microwave that can be used.
The bathroom was very spacious. They supplied soap and shampoo, ample towels, and there were also extra toothbrushes if you needed them. One important thing I did need was a first aid kit, and this was located in the medicine cabinet.
There is also available wi-fi to use, which was useful.
Silivia was a great host and checked up on me every now and then. Her entire family was warm and friendly. But I especially liked hanging out with their dog Lola, who would run into the apartment everyday to check up on me.
The apartment was fully furnished with high quality items, impeccably clean and super accommodating for any need, tourist, business, local folk! Super host on property!
