FERGUS Bermudas

We have just returned home from an amazing week away, which we wish could have been longer! The hotels location is perfect - close to the beach, shops and bars if you wish - but not so close that you can hear the late night shenanigans if you don’t want to. The hotel is small and that helps to make it extra special, as there are no morning fights for sunbeds, even in peak season, with plenty for everyone who wants one and no need to get up at 6am to reserve one! The food is good and plenty of varied selection, with a spacious restaurant and snack bar options when the restaurant isn’t open, the food even suiting my fussy children with always lots for them to eat- we didn’t have to queue even once to get in. Plenty of drinks choices on the all inclusive and even premium San Miguel on draught beer - never waiting more than 2 minutes to get served even at peak times! The rooms we saw were all good, clean, spacious, pretty comfy beds and nice bathrooms and balconies. Finally the staff were excellent throughout the hotel ; the reception, cleaning staff and bar and waiting staff all friendly, helpful and super- efficient at their jobs. One massive shout to the entertainment team for the day and nights activities. A variety of nationalities, but all worked great and hard to keep the adults and children all entertained and having fun. Headed up by the brilliant Gabriel, who was a breathe of fresh air - always able to put a smile on the faces of the kids and adults alike, being a really great advert for the hotel and the brand alike. Don’t expect the premium entertainment acts, as it’s a small hotel, and these alike are pretty basic - but fun. We would definitely return and hopefully make as many good friends again as we did this year - Thanks Fergus Bermudas for looking after us so well 😎👌🏼

We stayed for 10-nights as a blended family of 7 - with 'kids' ages ranging from 14-18 and had a fantastic time. Initial impressions were that it was a much smaller hotel than what we were used to - however this meant that there were no sun-lounger issues - easily getting 2-4 loungers together up to 9am most days - minimal bar queuing times (on-tap St Miguel and branded soft drinks), decent food on offer and an exceptional entertainment team led by Gabriel made this the best family holiday!

Rooms were spacious and cleaned daily. It is very close to the beach and other local shops/bars and restaurants. There is some noise from the bar located opposite the hotel at night, but to be expected and did not cause a problem for us with rooms facing that direction.

The size of the hotel also created a pleasant community vibe with us getting to know some lovely people during our stay which made for lively evenings with the live music and quiz nights on offer.

The daytime entertainment included pool, darts, table-tennis, water-polo, boules etc - a great variety for those wanting to get involved and no pressure to do so either. There is also an air-conditioned gym on-site. The pool is on the small side but enough provided people pay attention to the rules re no inflatable lilos etc!

I would add that there is a lower garden area with even more loungers available if you do not want/need to be pool-side. There could be more shaded areas in this space (we went during a heatwave with temps averaging 36-38 degrees most days).

There is a tennis court but I do not recall it being used during our stay. A much better use of the space, or the wider garden area perhaps, would be a multi-sport court with football goals, basketball hoops etc.

I would certainly consider a return to this hotel based on my recent experience and a number of people we met on our stay were in fact on a repeat visit themselves.
