    Allie is the Best! I Booked the Pool house for a vintage themed maternity shoot and I couldn't be more happier with the service. The location is beautifully curated and exceeded myself and my clients expectations. The decor is tastefully decorated with a mixture of modern and antique furnishings giving the space a funky and visually appealing vibe! The poolhouse is littered with family heirlooms which adds a touch of local history to the space. Allie and her husband are extremely and accommodating and professional, making sure myself and my clients had everything we needed. I 100% recommend booking Ledgelets if you're looking for a fun eclectic space to host an event or have a photoshoot!

    John and Alie are amazing hosts. Ledgelets is perfect for if you want a quiet getaway with your significant other or if you want to gather a bunch of friends for a party. The property is beautiful, like a mid century resort. They have a wonderful pool and deck area, plus there is a great swimming spot on the bay just a few minutes walking down the railway trail. You can also get to fort scaur quite easily for an unbelievable view of Ely’s harbour at sunset. They are close to some of the best beaches in Bermuda and a short cab to Dockyard. I have stayed at this property six times and you truly can’t beat it. I hope my review doesn’t help make them so popular I can’t get a room there anymore!

    I found The Ledgelets by chance while using google's hotel search function assuming we would end up staying in a resort in Bermuda. After sending them an email and getting a quick response that answered all of my questions I was sold. The idea of staying in our own cottage with a kitchen, laundry and access to a beautiful pool quickly became so much more appealing for my family than going to a hotel. John and Alie are welcoming and gracious hosts and incredible ambassadors for Bermuda. They have a wealth of knowledge to offer first time visitors looking for advice on beaches, restaurants and transportation. It was one of our favorite vacations and we're already discussing our return.

    The Ledgelets Cottages are located on beautiful grounds. We staying in the Pool House which was wonderfully decorated and very comfortable (king bed!). The pool is an awesome perk for relaxing and cooling down both in the daytime and evening. The hosts are very responsive and friendly. The beach was a 10-15 minute bus ride which was very convenient once you got a handle on the bus schedule. I highly recommend staying at the Ledgelets if you're looking for an independent guest house experience.

    The Ledgelets property, together with John's hospitality is literally why we go to Bermuda for vacation. We fell in love with the place on our first visit three years ago, and just came back from our second time staying there. The grounds are beautiful and extremely well kept, which made lounging by the pool on a cloudy day still feel very relaxing. Our cottage was the perfect balance of comfort, coziness and attention to detail. John is a great guy and always helpful. This is truly a rare gem which I know we'll keep coming back to.

    We had a truly magical time at The Ledgelets. If you’re traveling with a family (or a group of friends) the sunrise cottage is really comfortable. Amble space and bathrooms. Great playroom-esq area downstairs for children to spread out with their things. The grounds are gorgeous - so many flowers and pretty pathways and it’s all safe for the little ones. We spent mornings at the beach, afternoons at the pool, and evenings eating dinner outside on the patio. John’s cousin sells fresh fish across the street - a real treat for dinner. Speaking of treats, what could be better than a pitcher of delicious rum swizzle waiting for you upon arrival? Nothing, that’s what! In terms of transportation, John hooked us up with his driver Kevin, who took care of us all week. For an easy, relaxing, and beautiful vacation visit the Ledgelets - you won’t regret it!

    Last month I was here for a long weekend for a friends wedding. John was so great leading up to our trip when none of us had been to Bermuda before. He arranged taxi transportation for us from the airport and we then had taxi contacts for our full weekend (who were awesome!).When we arrived, John provided a tour of the property and was so helpful offering coffee suggestions and things to do. The house was perfect and we only wish we had more time at the house (and pool!) during our brief stay. Would highly recommend!!

    The Ledgelets was the piece of heaven we have sought. Walking up the stone path that rests in lush green grass, we entered a private paradise and found ourselves feeling immediately at home in the Pool House. It’s open, inviting and bright, and has the best porch for morning coffee in sunshine that illuminates the lush gardens that enclose the property. The bed is large, the kitchen is well-equipped and we never hesitated to hang out in the living room that invites good times. We hope we can return soon.

    Our family loves staying at The Ledgelets! It's the best way to do Bermuda. Their hospitality is unbeatable, and they treat you like family. When visiting other islands, we usually are drawn to the newest/nicest hotel, but in Bermuda you can't beat the authentic and unique experience at The Ledgelets. Book now!

    We recently had the privilege of hosting my friend’s bachelorette party at The Ledgelets in their Slat House. If you’re not familiar with The Ledgelets, it’s a beautiful cottage colony rich in island history, culture and style, located in Somerset parish with accommodations and event spaces available for booking. The girls invited were welcomed with The Ledgelets’ very own Swizzy Fizz (swizzle mixed with Prosecco) before we made our way up to the Slat House—a lush green house made perfect for entertaining. Alie, the owner of The Ledgelets organized yummy pastries and finger sandwiches which were catered by Four Ways and served on gorgeous tableware. Her team provided hot tea, sweet iced tea, coffee and rose water as well. Alie’s friend Patrice of Bermuda Born Label gifted us some of her luxury leather pouches which was the cherry on top of incredible day. Whether you’re booking an event or staying for vacation, I couldn’t recommend The Ledgelets more!

    The absolute best! I've stayed at The Ledgelets a number of times. It's the perfect mix of Bermuda beauty, luxury, and hospitality, without being pretentious. Everywhere you look is picturesque, and the Youngs are wonderful hosts. No detail is overlooked. I almost hesitate to write a review to keep the best kept secret to myself, but all most experience such a wonderful destination. Bermuda is a great time, but staying at The Ledgelets really makes it a special experience.

    As an urbanite, this was just the spot for my annual solo retreat. I needed a private, chill space where I could work on my art, uninterrupted, and I'm picky. I like to find rental homes slightly off the grid and aesthetically full of inspo, à la Architecture Digest. My process includes meditation and yoga, writing, reading, watching films, slow cooking, good music, the best wine, massage, mani/pedis - anything that will bring out my highest vibe - in order to produce my most authentic work. I booked their cute AF Pool House, and was not disappointed. The owner/host, John, was charming, a delight to liaise with, is switched on and cool. He arranged for their driver, Uncle Kevin, to do my airport runs, and anything in between. When I arrived at this cluster of pink cottages - aka shangri la - hidden away just beyond the smallest drawbridge in the world, my brain went full bananas on the beauty, and then full on decompression mode. It could have been the welcome rum punch called the "Swizzle". It could have been the lush, old-growth subtropical gardens and the tree frogs' song that begins at sunset. Perhaps it was the well-appointed, sustainable, modern vintage interiors that Alie mostly sourced from the Young's storage units filled with pieces left over from their luxury hotel days, mindfully restored on island, then added in her ridic sense of color, placement and perspective? Maybe it was the way the Pool House sits just above a Slim Aarons-style poolside situation, dotted with sculptures at dance-and-play, where morning salutations begin with some legit, mysteriously wonderful chakra calming bowls, bells and flutes (Alie advised this was a Tibetan album by Massage Tribe), and evenings are surrounded by twinkle lights and the clearest, unpolluted view of the stars? It was absolutely the way this poolside vibe is positioned just off a trail that cuts through ancient volcanic rock, where I took my daily walks, and the energy feels so immersive and healing, you can't help but be encouraged to conjure your best art. The Ledgelets is, fine art. Happy to get lost in this mystic part of the Bermuda Triangle anytime."

    William J. Galbraith III, Owner, The Wine & Spirit Co., Greenville, Delaware: "I had been looking for an island destination for a family vacation with my two young daughters. We wanted one that was easy to get to from the east coast by direct flight (we live in Delaware, and flew through PHL), and a location where we didn't feel locked down on a huge, crowded, overpriced, touristy resort. I had been to Bermuda as a teenager, and I remembered it being a beautiful place. This trip, however, ended up being above and beyond better than my memories. A friend had recommended the Ledgelets, as it used to be part of a larger hotel called Lantana, and is still run by its third generation owners, John and Alison Young (who are awesome hosts with loads of experience). We stayed in Sunrise Cottage, which was plenty of space for my family and a couple friends. It has the ideal open kitchen/dining/living/patio space for hanging out. We grilled fresh wahoo in the evenings, direct from their fishermen cousins on their dock, on the house! Ledgelets is a poolside property, which was perfect when it was too hot to hang with kiddos on the beach, not to mention closer to a bathroom and the cold beer in our fridge. That said, we spent ample time on the beach as day guests of Coral Beach Club (15 min drive), and rented a boat from the watersports and diving shop at Somerset Bridge (10 min walk). The girls loved renting the crystal canoes, and paddling around Ely's Harbour watching the sea turtles and parrot fish swim below. Sadly, the girls were super bummed they couldn't catch any fish with their hands. Thus, we look forward to coming back to try again and again. Pro-tip: We were advised to try to visit again during the cooler, off-season months, as the rates are less $, and it's still sunny and warm. Overall a 5 star experience for Bermuda and the Ledgelets."

    We went to the Ledgelets for afternoon tea in the Slat House and it was an experience unlike any other in Bermuda. The setting was incredible, surrounded by orchids and other beautiful potted plants. Alie went above and beyond to help organize a spectacular afternoon. I could not recommend this more!!

    Loved it! Staying at The Ledgelets has been a pure blessing. The Pool House is adorable, and the setting is truly lush and lovely. John and Alie are friendly, accessible, helpful and accommodating. They truly want to make guests happy. If I come back to Bermuda, I'll come back here.

    Allie and John were amazing, accommodating hosts! We stayed in the pool house and had a great time. It feels very secluded and has a nice view of the pool and surrounding landscaping. There is a full kitchen with basic cookware and spices. A bus stop is located at the bottom of the hill/driveway entry, which is about a 2-3 minute walk. This location is only around 10-15 to the Dockyard via bus and 30-35ish to Hamilton. Highly recommend!

    What can I say about the Ledgelets that hasn’t already been so eloquently said… It’s personally my 3rd time here. 1st time, newly married with my wife, 2nd time with my favorite in-laws celebrating a milestone anniversary and 3rd time with said in-laws and my 4.5 year old twins in tow and each time has been better than the last! From the beautifully maintained grounds to the superb service from the Youngs, we’ve enjoyed our time here immensely. What keeps us coming back is the attention to detail - from the welcome pitcher of rum swizzle in the fridge (yum!), to the arranged taxis to and from the airport with Uncle Kevin, to the sweet pool setup with loungers and chill tunes, to the fresh fish arranged from cousin Ian, to the Bermuda & Property history lessons from John and cool vibes, interior design and hospitality set by Alie, we love everything there is at the Ledgelets. We’ll keep coming back as long as they allow us to!
