9 Beaches - currently closed for redevelopment

In 2010 it was announced that 9 Beaches was to close for a multi-million dollar redevelopment. Hotel representatives stated that the property would reopen in summer 2011. At the time of writing (March 2013) a statement on the website states that 9 Beaches is expected to reopen in summer 2014. However, similar statements over the years have come to nothing. Media reports suggest the owners are having difficulty raising the capital to finance the project.

9 Beaches is a casual, eco-friendly resort situated at Daniel’s Head, on the western tip of Bermuda. Spread over 18 waterfront acres it features 84 private soft-sided cabanas, each resting on stilts and offering spectacular ocean views.

Each cabana boasts a wooden deck floor, air conditioning, bathroom, and a water-facing veranda. Some of the cabanas are built over the water and are connected to the land by a boardwalk. An additional feature found at this class is a small floor window that allows viewing of the tropical fish swimming below.

    This is one cool place. I liked the cabins with the glass floor which was very unique. I also liked the fact that it had nine beaches. I would picnic out at three different beaches three times a day that way I could enjoy all the beaches daily but unfortunately really exceeded my daily caloric intake requirements. Can`t wait to go back.
