Starwood Hotels & Resorts Worldwide, Inc.

Owned by Par La Ville Hotel and Residences, Ltd., a partnership between Virginia-based Unified Resorts, Ltd. and New York-based Sagewood Investments, LLC, The St. Regis Bermuda will offer unparalleled luxury, highly personalized service and refined elegance at one of the world’s best addresses.

Nestled in the center of Hamilton’s dynamic business district and just a short distance from Bermuda’s stunning beaches and azure waters, The St. Regis Bermuda will be the ideal destination for both business and leisure guests. A leading economic and political hub, Hamilton offers guests and residences an appealing mix of specialty shopping, restaurants, cultural centers and landmark corporations. St. Regis guests and residences will have exclusive access to the nearby St. Regis Beach Club, where they can unwind amidst sparkling pink sand beaches, breathtaking ocean views, lush landscapes and luxury amenities including a salt-water infinity-edge pool, private serviced cabanas, indoor recreation room and signature spa services. Guests and residences can indulge their senses at the Beach Club Restaurant featuring culinary delights inspired by local ingredients and flavors.

The Residences at The St. Regis Bermuda will include approximately 80 luxurious Residences within the hotel.
