The Loren At Pink Beach, a new luxury boutique in Bermuda’s Tucker’s Town that will be the first new hotel opening in more than a decade, has announced its opening date.

The new five-star retreat (formerly the Pink Beach Club) will debut on February 16 with 45 oceanfront suites and three villas set on an 8-acre spread on the island’s south shore.

Designed with “European influences and Bermudian spirit,” accommodations (ranging from 600 square-foot rooms to 3,300 square-foot residences) feature marble bathrooms with rain showers; sea-view terraces and balconies; stocked mini bars; custom flip-flops; and complimentary high-speed WI-FI.

Two restaurants, Pink Beach Club and Marée, will offer casual al fresco meals and Mediterranean-inspired fine dining respectively. There’s also a pair of heated pools; a kids’ club; and a spa with four treatment rooms overlooks the Atlantic.

The newest among Bermuda hotels also plans to host meetings and weddings, with indoor and outdoor venues that can seat from 200 to 2,500 guests.
