A jewel of an island out in the middle of the Atlantic Ocean, Bermuda is world-renowned for its incredible beaches, colonial sites, and fantastic outdoor activities on land and at sea. This British Overseas Territory enjoys a robust tourist economy thanks to its many natural gifts and legendary place in both naval and pirate history. Over 65,000 people happily make Bermuda their home, with its nine parishes, the capital of Hamilton and the historic town of St. Georges - a UNESCO World Heritage Site. 4 THE CONCIERGE AZURA BERMUDA 5 RESORT MAP PATHWAY TO BEACH SONG BEACH PRIVATE 125-127 RESIDENCES PINK SANDS 128-130 BLUE HORIZON SEA SPRAY 120-124 132-134 EDGEWATER COMING 2021 NATURE RESERVE NATURE BLACKBURN SMITH BLACKBURN CORAL EBB TIDE LOBBY SEASCAPE ON HILLTOP 110-117 BREAKERS REEF COMING 2021 106-109 101-105 ENTRANCE & TAXI DROP OFF TAXI PARKING LOBBY FITNESS CENTER PARKING FOR CHURCH CHARGERS POOL POOL BAR BEACH PUBLIC RESTROOMS SOUTH ROAD COBB’S HILL ROAD BUS STOP ACROSS FROM CHURCH CHURCH 6 THE CONCIERGE AZURA BERMUDA 7 We believe that everyone’s life could use a little dash of sea salt - so our team welcomes you to Azura Bermuda, where we will help you live out your holiday fantasies.

The Azura Team 8 THE CONCIERGE AZURA BERMUDA 9 ROOMS, SUITES & VILLAS Each of Azura Hotel’s 22 guest rooms- a mix of garden and ocean view rooms, one bedroom suites, and two and three bedroom villas - is inspired by our magnificent oceanfront setting, high atop a bluff overlooking the Atlantic Ocean and our pristine private beach. Comfortable, elegant and spacious, our accommodations are beautifully appointed with the latest in contemporary décor, vibrant artwork and thoughtful amenities. 10 THE CONCIERGE AZURA BERMUDA 11 VILLAS Our magnificent two and three bedroom Ocean View Villas offer the latest in luxury contemporary accommodation. With up to 1700 square feet of spacious open plan design, they include elegant living-dining rooms and full kitchens. These villas are graced by floor-to-ceiling windows and multiple verandahs offering a haven for gazing unbroken at expansive ocean views. SUITES Our One Bedroom Ocean View Suites offer a stunning getaway with extra space to relax and unwind. Combining distinctive design elements, full kitchens and large picturesque windows - many with floor to ceiling glass – they create an inviting contemporary atmosphere. Our One Bedroom Suites are either loft style with staircase or single level and are approximately 1000 square feet. All have private balconies or gardens with breath-taking views over the Azura rooftops and our magical South Shore coastline. 12 THE CONCIERGE AZURA BERMUDA 13 KEEP CALM AND GO TO THE BEACH Just below the pool deck, you’ll find the start of Azura’s unique panoramic beaches - sandy terraced enclaves perfect for two. These lead down to Azura’s main stretch of private beach where you can take in the soft pink sand and just a short wade in - abundant reefs bustling with parrot fish and other marine life. Azura’s beach changes with tides and ocean currents so can vary in size, but its clear and calm shallow waters make it ideal for swimming and snorkeling much of the year. For a change of pace, Bermuda’s famed Elbow Beach and Horseshoe Bay Beach are also close by. POOL You’re Only One Swim Away From a Good Mood Immerse yourself in our refreshing pool which sits at the heart of our Azura community with its clifftop setting and dazzling views over the pink beach and its reefs. Swim, float or laze in our comfortable modern loungers, whether soaking up the rays or enjoying a quiet read under a shady umbrella. Pool Bar Situated just by the pool, the bar is a fantastic place to relax over a coffee, a freshly made cocktail or a glass of wine. Opening hours change seasonally. 14 THE CONCIERGE AZURA BERMUDA 15 What is the advantage of speaking to a concierge over searching the Internet? All of our front office team, including the concierge, are locals. When speaking with out team, guests will receive the verified knowledge of the resort and island, especially those activities that are local favourites. We want our guests to have an authentic experience and our team can assist in making that happen. & What do you enjoy most about being a concierge? Q AWith the Because we love our island home, we have an uncanny Concierge Team way of knowing what each of our guests needs. From something as simple as finding that perfect welcome room gift to organizing a private candle light beach dinner for two; anything we can do to make our guests holiday memorable is what we are known for. How would you spend your ideal day off? It depends on how active one wants to be? Being Bermudian, we play it by ear and it always depends on the weather. During the spring and summer months, you will always find us on the water. Exploring the beaches, renting a motor boat, snorkelling or renting a jet ski. Finishing off with a long lunch or dinner at one of our favorite restaurants. During the fall and winter months it’s a time for exploring and trying out new things. All the rage right now are the electric vehicles. Rent one for the day and choose to explore the full expanse of the island. Stop off at a pub and get to know the locals. If you are looking for an active pursuit, try a game of golf, or diving (the best visibility is during our winters), or our personal favourite - a spa day. If a guest is only in town for 48 hours, what would you recommend for the perfect itinerary? Definitely rent a moped or electric vehicle, as it will give you the independence to travel and get the most out of your 48 hours. Try an island drive from Dockyard in the West to St. George’s in the East. For dinner, definitely try out the award-winning Breezes Restaurant located at Cambridge Beaches - also a great place to catch the sunset. For the BEST fish sandwich, you must try award winning Art Mel’s. 16 THE CONCIERGE AZURA BERMUDA 17 What would you say is indigenous to your How can a guest best use the concierge hotel’s city? services to their full potential?
