Just Perfect

Villa Lisa was a perfect accommodation. Lisa and Charlie completed the experience. They went above and beyond in making us comfortable and informed without being intrusive. Renting our wee little car got us out and about exploring. The Reefs was a very handy and great choice for dinner

Wonderful Experience!

Well you pay your money and hope for the best. This was one of those great surprises in VRBO stays! The owners Lisa and Charlie were so kind and gracious to us. It was if we had been friends for a long time. The cottage was stocked with delicious, fresh food, which was a complete surprise to us and so appreciated. We have stayed in countless Airbnb’s and VRBOs but this one we will never forget! Truly memorable!!!

Amazingly perfect vacation cottage!

Villa Lisa is a heavenly choice if you want to stay in Southhampton. It’s very conveniently located for the bus line, electric car or scooter rental, and walking distance to The Reefs, Henry VIII and the Gibbs Hill Lighthouse. Lisa and Charlie were the most fabulous and responsive hosts. I can’t say enough about all they did to make us feel welcomed and pampered. From fresh flowers, to a stocked fridge, to arranged transportation, to newspapers on our patio table each morning…it just couldn’t have been better. The cottage is well appointed and had everything we needed, and more! The views of the ocean and the lighthouse were magical. We enjoyed our stay so much and will be back as soon as possible! Thank you Lisa and Charlie - this was the best VRBO rental we’ve ever stayed in, and it’s because of your dedication to being awesome hosts!

Hillside Paradise

From the first time we saw the picture of the cottage on VRBO… We knew it was the perfect place for us. We have been to Bermuda five times before and were looking for a little romantic getaway… We found it. Lisa and Charlie were amazing hosts who shared their beautiful cottage in the perfect location. Beautiful breezy beaches and views…cozy, comfortable and clean. The fridge was stocked and the morning newspaper delivered… We will never stay in a resort again!!!

Could not have had a better experience

Lisa and her husband are gracious and welcoming hosts who enhanced the entire Bermuda experience and were quite delightful in and of themselves. From having someone pick us up at the airport (with a frame-worthy welcome sign) to stocking the cottage with everything you could possibly need, it made the entire trip as pleasant as it was easy. The cottage itself was wonderful; comfortable, with patios for a leisurely breakfast while enjoying the views, a kitchen so you didn’t have to eat out every night (although “The Reefs” was a five-minute walk and had spectacular food and drinks), plenty of space for sitting and reading, and a ten-minute walk from Church Bay if you wanted to snorkel or just sit on a pristine bit of sand and turquoise water. We couldn’t have been happier. Will definitely be back!

About the host

Hosted by Property Manager/Owner Lisa Quinn-Brown

I'm Lisa, I'm an artist. I paint mostly in watercolour, but also love to work in pastel and acrylics. I'm known for my large, oversized floral paintings, landscapes, seascapes and graphic architectural pieces. I studied Graphic Design at Rhode Island School of Design then moved to Moore College of Art & Design in Philadelphia where I obtained my BFA in Graphic Design and Teaching Certification. I taught art for several years at the high school level, then taught private art lessons at my studio for many more years. My husband's name is Charles. We married in 1996 and moved into our cute little cottage called 'Wing Cottage', overlooking the beautiful South Shore. We were both born and raised in Bermuda, Charles was raised in Spanish Point, I was raised in Southampton. When Charlie proposed I told him I could never leave Southampton, so he agreed to move to my parish, a very wise decision indeed! We both have a passion for hospitality. A year or so after we married, we built my gorgeous art studio and have enjoyed many years of exhibiting my paintings and hosting visitors from all over the world. We love to travel, but also love to return to to our beautiful island home.

Why they chose this property

Location, location, location! We're in the perfect spot! Southampton is a beautiful parish. You can walk to several beaches from our Villa! You can relax on the balcony before and after dinner and just gaze at the statuesque Gibbs Hill lighthouse, it's mesmerizing! Then just face the other direction and gaze at the ocean. Our property is tucked away in a hill, it's in a secluded, private location, but not too remote at all. We have lots out outdoor, garden space to relax in, including three porches. The shrubbery nestles you in while the birds chirp sweetly overhead.
