Panoramic Private Beachfront Home with Breathtaking Views

Lorna is a wonderful, attentive, and welcoming host. The views from the property are breathtaking and even better in person. There was plenty of space for our party of five adults and the location was excellent.

The house is lovely and on such a GORGEOUS beach away from the hustle and bustle of the more busy beaches on the island. Lorna is very accommodating and gave us very helpful information with organizing plans! Would definitely stay here again!

Beautiful ocean front views. Basically private beach.

Excellent stay all around. The location, the house, and the host were fantastic! We look forward to returning in the future.

The beach access and water views were outstanding. The beach felt very secluded, relaxing, and had great snorkeling. Very easy walking to the bus stop, Henry VIII, Henry VIII Pantry, and the lighthouse. Horseshoe Bay is also walkable in 20-30 minutes. The home is very clean, well-stocked, and had plenty of space for our family of 5. We ate most of our meals at the house. The kitchen and grill had everything we needed for preparing meals. We had access to a shared utility room with plenty of beach supplies such as chairs, boogie boards, and toys.Lorna was an amazing host and provided us with recommendations for airport transportation, grocery shopping, places to eat, and spots for sightseeing.

We had an amazing 30th anniversary week at Lorna & Greg's property - Gemstones. It's a truly perfect house and location in Bermuda. Everything exceeded our expectations, and Lorna was a great communicator. While the tourist beach of Horseshoe Bay is a 25 minute walk away (if you want to explore), you would be much happier just enjoying their mostly private beach cove of Crossbay Beach right down the path from the house. We went there every day and stayed for 4-5 hours, using Lorna's provided beach chairs and umbrella. Perfect, and like a postcard setting...you felt like no one else was around. Also, you're only about 20 minutes from downtown Hamlton for restaurants and exploring. And if you don't want to buy food for the house, just bring coffee along. You can walk to the Reefs Resort nearby in 10 minutes and have breakfast or lunch there. Or you can walk just 2 minutes to Henry VIII restaurant. They have a pantry to supply beer, wine, fish cake sandwiches, or their delightful baked chicken (a local's secret that we brought to the beach on 3 occasions for lunch!). And when you use the Hitch Bermuda app for taxis, it's very easy, and most of the drivers knew where Lorna & Greg's house was for picking us up (everyone driving the taxis were so nice). 5-stars doesn't describe our time well enough. We really can't wait to come back again. Highly recommend!

Super clean and open, the wilsons are amazing hosts, cant find something just ask. This was our second visit already planning a third!!!!!!

Couldn't have been more perfect!! Absolutely stunning property with gorgeous beach. Didnt want for anything and host was sweet and kind. The whole family was amazed at the beautiful house accommodation.

Gemstones is a gorgeous, spacious, and

My family spent 4 nights at Gemstones and had a great time! Gemstones unit was extremely comfortable. Slept 6 (2 couples, 2 singles) comfortably using the loft. Ate in several times, kitchen was well equipped. We had the beach to ourselves most of the time and the snorkling was great! Lorna lives on site and is extremely responsive during check in and answering any questions we had. There were other guests in the smaller unit but we barely knew they were there. Walkable to Gibbs Lighthouse and Henry VIII for great chicken for lunch and sushi! Great sunsets and sunrises from the deck..the view was unbelievable! Would absolutely stay there again.

We spent 5 days at this beautiful property, and enjoyed every minute. The host was very welcoming and friendly, and responded almost instantly to any questions we had.

From start to finish our stay in Bermuda was amazing. Lorna is the best host ever and was readily available when we had any questions. The location was amazing and the beach was perfect. Easy to get transportation for any excursions. I wish I was waking up in Bermuda again for breakfast on the patio. We’ll be back for sure !

Gemstones was a gorgeous property! The house complete with the views is a rare find in rentals. The spaciousness of the rooms could easily handle large groups. Updated appliances were featured throughout the house making it comfortable for us all. Quick access to the beach as well as to the bus stop and to an excellent restaurant made our days easy. Outside deck and seating areas were enjoyed all throughout the day. Beach toys and equipment were at our fingertips if we wished. Information about the house as well as the surrounding area was presented thoroughly through the VRBO site and through books left at the house. The only drawback for us was with the TVs: 1. There was no instruction sheet letting us know how to make them work. Lorna and George were terrific hosts! Go to Gemstones! You won't be disappointed.

This was our third time staying at beautiful Gemstones, and we absolutely love it!! We have a large family and there is more than enough room for everyone to sleep comfortably, as well as all the amenities a family needs (well stocked kitchen, laundry, beach toys, chairs, etc). Most of all, you can’t beat the location, I would’ve been more than happy to swim, snorkel, and build sandcastles on Cross Bay Beach every single day! And the view from the gorgeous house is spectacular!! Lorna and Greg are amazing hosts - so friendly and warm, and always quick to respond to any questions you may have. If you have the opportunity to stay here, do it!! You will love it just as we do!!

We celebrated our 40th anniversary with our entire family. We had such a wonderful time at Gemstones. Lorna's place made you feel like you were home. All of us will remember this trip for a lifetime. Looking forward to going back to Bermuda. What a beautiful island!

We could not have been happier with our stay at Gemstones. The view was literally breathtaking (I gasped when we first walked in the house). The beach that is down the steps is beyond gorgeous. And Lorna is the absolute best host. The home had everything we needed and more. We can't wait to book again.

Gemstones was the perfect spot for our family. 6 adults and 2 children. Kitchen had everything we needed to prepare our meals when we didn’t eat out. Snorkeling gear was great to have . It is a short walk to Church bay where you can snorkel (big beautiful fish swimming close to beach). The kids loved having the beach right there. We stayed in main house and had plenty of room for everyone.

Our stay at Lorna's vacation home was nothing short of spectacular! The panoramic views of the beach and ocean were breathtaking, creating a serene and picturesque backdrop for our entire trip. The house is spacious, well-maintained, and equipped with all the amenities that a family or large group could possibly need, from a snorkeling gear and floaties to comfortable bedrooms and entertainment options. One of the highlights of our stay was the accessibility. The nearby bus stops made it incredibly easy to explore the island without the hassle of driving. We were just a short ride away from several beautiful beaches and popular tourist spots, making our daily adventures convenient and enjoyable. The location couldn't be more perfect. Not only were we close to multiple stunning beaches, but there was also a fantastic restaurant just a short walk away. The food there was delicious, offering a variety of dishes that pleased everyone in our group. Lorna, the owner, was exceptionally kind and communicative throughout our stay. She made sure we had everything we needed and offered great recommendations for local attractions and tips on the island. Her hospitality truly enhanced our experience, making us feel right at home. We couldn't have asked for a better place to spend our vacation. This home, with its amazing views, excellent location, and wonderful amenities, exceeded all our expectations. We can't wait to return!
