Just another day in paradise....
The private Fairmont beach is just spectacular!
We loved the rock formations off of the beach. We often swam out to it and it was a great place to scope out some pretty cool fish. 
Not a bad way to spend the 4th!
The property is sprawling so the Fairmont offers free trolley service to the private beach and some of the restaurants not attached to the main hotel
Room with a view
Happy
Independence 
Day!
I just love that magical time of the day when the sun begins to set and everyone leaves the beach. Now that's paradise!
Back to the room for another day of sunset scoping
Au revoir Bermuda! I most definitely will be back :)Happy Wednesday, lovelies. Can't believe it's been a week since I've been back from vacation already. My mind is still there...walking along the smooth pinkish tinged sand, frolicking around in the crystal clear turquoise water, and watching the gorgeous sunsets, one of my only "tasks" of the day, just feeling completely and utterly chillaxed. Can you really blame me?
We stayed at the Fairmont Southampton, a wonderful resort set atop a hillside that looks upon the gorgeous aquamarine sea. The views were really spectacular. The landscape is beautiful, set between the South Shore beaches and the Great Harbor, with a pristine golf course in between. There's a luxury spa, The Willow Stream, to take care of all of your pampering needs and the dining choices at the hotel and in the area are outstanding. We ate at the majority of the resort restaurants. They were all amazing but our favorite was the Waterlot Inn, one of the best steakhouses I've ever dined at.
It was a truly amazing vacation. It's so close to NYC, the flight is only an hour and 1/2! I knew it was a short trip but not THAT short. The beaches are breathtaking and the dining was outstanding. It's like a little piece of paradise in my backyard and I'll definitely be going back the next chance I get.
So in honor of my Wednesday Wishes series, today I am really wishing I was back there right now :)
Hope you're all having a lovely week! Do you have any wishes this Wednesday?
