Delightful Cottage!
The cottage was perfect! It accommodated two couples, each with their own private bedroom with king sized beds and bathroom; and there was still a room with twin beds available! Washer/dryer, stove/oven and a refrigerator! The private beach was delightful! The beach chairs and the floats were unexpected and very much appreciated. Access to Cambridge Beaches for renting Twizzys was so convenient! Air conditioning and portable fans worked great. We enjoyed walking on the soft Bermuda grass in the side garden, listening to the tree frogs, and eating breakfast at the table in the front yard under the umbrella with views of the bay. Donna was very responsive to our questions; we couldn't get the internet to work, but honestly, we were too busy playing on the island, we didn't really miss it! We will definitely return to this cottage!

GREAT location, attentive property owner, disappointing experience
The property owner, Donna, was attentive to our issues and upon our return nearly made it right. The air quality in the house was not healthy for our daughter-in-law who has asthma. The mold, mildew & must were overwhelming despite 3 old, loud air conditioners on high. There was mold behind the headboards, in the closets and around the carpeting. We were told the day before our arrival that the washing machine was not working. But, we did not expect the previous renter's dirty linens to be piled up in the clean linen closet. We expected the washing machine to be fixed during our stay, so we were not heading home with dirty, wet, sandy clothes. Unfortunately, that did not happen. In addition, the dishwasher did not work so we had to hand wash our dishes during our visit. To top it off, even the outside shower did not work. Clearly the property has an issue with ants/bugs/critters and does not appear to have a service in place to address this issue. There were ant traps (new and used) all over. Within our first night, the ants got into our crackers and rice. There was also an infestation of bugs on an open bag of dog treats in a bottom kitchen cabinet. We were not at all comfortable cooking in the kitchen. Lastly, it would have been nice to have an unopened bar of soap or pump soap in the kitchen and bathrooms so we could have washed our hands after a long day of travel. Also, there was not a kitchen towel or roll of paper towels to be found. We will NOT return.

Lovely location
Many pros and a few cons. We truly ended up.loving this home and its old world charm. The grounds were large and very private. There were plenty of beach towels, blankets and even some extras left from previous tenants. We loved having our own private beach area where we floated on rafts we brought with us, sat in sun and snorkeled daily. We walked to the grocery and to another nearby beach called Longbay. The hard part was getting a taxi to come and pick us up. It seemed since we were down in the Somerset area there weren't as many readily available? Also the cost of groceries was very high. We liked being right next to h20 water sports so that we could just walk over when we rented a boat but quite a few of other activities were 40 min. away. Another thing that is hard to get used to in Bermuda was that there is air conditioning only in sleeping areas. We were thankful for the easy open crank windows and the floor fan provided. That being said it is part of their culture and we chose to forego a resort this time around. The owner was always there to answer questions and the views from the home were amazing!!

Wee stay at Felicity!
We had the best week at Felicity! Our family of 5 stayed, and it was wonderful. Perfect location right next to Cambridge Beaches, and with it's own small private beach. Our kids spent hours swimming off the beach- and our 6 year old especially loved searching for bottles under the water! The house is a short walk to Post Office, Bus Stop and Pharmacy. Donna was extremely helpful, with a quick response when we needed her for something. The house was quaint and had old Bermuda charm. We hope to come back and stay in Felicity again!

A week with friends
This property is in an amazing location, with it’s own private beach However, would we go back? The cottage sleeps 6 but there is only 1 lounger and 1 beach chair- it wouldn’t take a lot to rectify this and would add infinitely to the enjoyment of relaxing on the beach or in the garden. There was no mention of how to access the wifi- the hosts responded within 24hours and were lovely but why isn’t this in the information pack? The information book was hard to find and the least informative we have come across. There was no soap/ washing up liquid or cloths which we have always been provided with previously. The details mention the property is dated but it was too cluttered with personal belongings and it was dirty ( each room had at least 3 ant bait plastic traps - surely pick up old ones and replace with new ones regularly rather than adding to the clutter. We had a dead cockroach in bedroom on arrival and cobwebs. The fridge door was full of condiments/ salad dressings and the freezer full of coffee and frozen chips. It is lovely to find salt/ pepper/oil and a few spices but there was no room for our groceries and we had to date check everything. There were cobwebs on cooking equipment everything had to be washed - the pans were not non stick- the random collection of glasses and crockery added to the feeling of clutter. The only cupboard to put groceries in had dog food , rice, pasta and more clutter- most already opened. Then there’s the layout of the cottage- There are 3 double bed rooms- but to access the 2nd room you need to go through the family bathroom - shared by the twin and double. Possibly making the twin room the double room when 2 couples stay would have been better. A deep clean , a lick of paint and another lounger and beach chair would have made the world of difference. It is a great cottage in a fab location but needs some tlc At the airport we met a couple who stayed at Felicity in 1985 and they said it was dated then and in need of a little attention.
