More about accommodation
When it comes to looking for accommodation in Bermuda, we recommend that you start your search after you first arrive on the Island. You will normally be put up in a guest house for two to four weeks to give you time to locate a property.
House sharing is a popular option since this allows you to split overheads and therefore reduce costs, as well as enabling you to get to know new people easily and quickly. It is normal practice for landlords to request a returnable damage deposit which often equates to one month's rent.
The easiest way to find accommodation is via adverts in the Bermuda press (see examples of recent adverts below) or online sites (also see below), through the office bulletin board or HR department, or (best) via word of mouth once you arrive. You also have the choice of using the services of a real estate agent. Note, however, that this can sometimes be a more expensive option than doing it yourself.
We strongly recommend that you do a thorough search of the accommodation available rather than taking the first place you see since prices and facilities can vary considerably so proper research definitely pays off!
