Today we’re introducing our Lilly’s Resort Town Guide, our spill-the-juice must-read guide to the most iconic resort towns and destinations, and our Must-Stays, Must-Eats, Must-Dos, and of course, Must-Wears while you’re there.
We’re kicking off this series with none other than Bermuda, where we shot our Summer 2018 swim campaign. As you will notice pretty quickly, the island is s-t-u-n-n-i-n-g.
Bermuda is a place after our own hearts—it’s the kind of island that embraces the luxury of yachts and fine dining, but relaxes in the ease of barefoot walks on pink sand beaches. Another plus? It’s only a little over a 2-hour flight from NYC. Why book now? Summer is one of the best times to visit– it’s in the low-80s and sunny almost every day. Bermuda quickly became one of our favorite summertime tropical resort destinations.
MUSt-stay
Hamilton Princess– With both its history and modern appeal, the Hamilton Princess has been Bermuda’s iconic “Pink Palace” for over a century. It’s quite literally, a pink building, with lush surroundings and an impressive contemporary art collection. We had the pleasure of visiting this past July, with some of our influencer friends, and could not get enough of the stunning property.
Best photo-op: Don’t miss the Hamilton Princess’s iconic #PoseonPink photo moment or the Hamilton Princess Beach Club—where you can lounge on a hammock that’s in the shallows of the calm inlet. Instagram, gold.
must-eat
Harbourfront– For an intimate dinner atmosphere inside or a casual lunch on the terrace, the Harbourfront restaurant does not disappoint for sushi and seafood.
Wahoo’s Bistro & Patio– A casual spot located right in the town of St. George’s, where you can sit outside by the water and order Wahoo’s famous fish tacos. Perfect for dinning with larger groups or kids!
must-see
Jobson’s Cove– Pay attention or you just might miss it! Walk through the sandy path off to the right of Horseshow Bay Beach (also ranked one of the top beaches in the world), and you’ll be abruptly stopped in the sand by a breathtaking view. Cliffs jetting into the water form an intimate cove of crystal clear, shallow water. Pack a picnic—you’re going to want to wade in and stay a while…
Hamilton– The capital island city of Bermuda is Hamilton, where pastel-colored colonial homes and shops line the street. It’s vibrant, friendly, and full of art, cathedrals, and parks.
must-wear
UPF 50+ Meryl Nylon Adelia Tennis Dress – Throw on this Luxletic dress and pick up a racquet to play on the Hamilton Princess tennis courts that are right by the Princess Beach Club, beautifully located right next to the private cove of Sinky Bay. Lilly played her best tennis barefoot…
Pearl Shift – One of our favorite shift shapes, this fitted dress has a halter neckline and gold lace detailing. The Paradise Tint pink is the perfect shade to coordinate with the pink sand and pastel hues of Bermuda.
